This is a PSP adoptation of TYRIAN, PC game by Eclipse Productions, published Epic MegaGames.

GAMEPLAY

Tyrian is an arcade-style vertical scrolling shooter.
The player controls a space ship fitted with different weapons and enhanced energy shields.
Money is earned by destroying enemies and grabbing bonuses, which is then used to purchase
upgrades such as weapons, shields, energy generators, and different ships from interlevel menus.
The game is fast paced and presents a variety of enemies and bosses.
CONTROLS
--------
[ANALOG PAD] MENU NAVIGATION & SHIP'S IN GAME MOVEMENTS
[TRANGLE] SELECT/FIRE
[SQUARE]/[O][X] joystick buttons 2,3,4 (can be reconfigured in setup)
[SELECT] in-game setup menu / back button
[START] in game pause
Heres whats new:
- ~10% speed increase due to new rendering routine.
- better smoothing/scaling in full-screen mode
-original size mode fixed
- data cubes text scroll fixed
- black screen on startup bug hopefully gone
- fixed the startup title screen animations
