TYRIAN FOR PSP (Preview)

**deniska** · December 1st, 2007, 01:20

I decided to take a short break from working on mapThis! and port an old SHMUP from the DOS era, called TYRIAN.
The port is based on OpenTyrian project source, located at http://code.google.com/p/opentyrian/
Here is the preview, showing the game play:

I'l release the binaries shortly, once I do a couple of tweaks in the code...

GREAT Deniska, i played this game on our old computer.

Hope to see it soon.

I'm guessing it uses the same technology as Raptor: Call of the Shadows.

Can you port that too ?

Excellent news. I recall playing this years ago and it was great!

I see it went open-source this year and there's a Windows port being worked on too.
