First, Raptor has better graphics and art design Tyrian doesn't even come close really. Sure, Tyrian is probably a longer, harder game, but Raptor is just so ridiculously fun that I never cared. Epic's stuff was great, but Apogee's was even better. I always was on the Apogee side of the Apogee-Epic wars. Tyrian's good, but I always found it nowhere near as good as Raptor. It is possible to praise Tyrian too much, because Raptor is the better game. all that I can find of it are these links:

Unfortunately, while there used to be a great site listing virtually every PC shmup called Shoot the Core (it focused on modern Japanese doujin shmups and such, but had many of the older PC games as well), it vanished earlier this year. They're all simple, stylish, and interesting games with different game mechanics and a pretty high level of quality. There are just so many PC games out there, I could never hope to mention everything.Īs for other games, Kenta Cho's games are definitely recommended. Apogee's shmups Stargunner and Major Stryker, both also pretty good games, are also both freeware ( ). other than Raptor, the most popular would be Tyrian, which is freeware as Tyrian 2000. There were lots of shmups back in the DOS shareware days, if you look you'll find bunches of them. Still, the site is still there, so it's likely they're still available.

I haven't tried ordering the full versions and the site hasn't updated in several years, sadly. You can get them all at, or the demos (Win95 versions) at least for sure. I like Raptor more, but they're decent enough to try. I really like the money and shop aspects, they add something to the game that almost no other shmups have.Īfter Raptor the same people went on to make Demonstar and the two Demonstar: Special Missions titles, which are simpler games that ditch the money and shop aspects in favor of standard pick-up-the-powerups stuff. it's a bit easy unless you make it hard on yourself by not saving between levels or something, but still, it's a great game. I still love this game, it's just so playable and fun.
