OpenTyrian for S60v3 is a direct port of the original oldie DOS shoot-em-up game. Tyrian is an old computer game developed by Eclipse Productions and published in golden age of computing, the early '90s before the Microsoft came and bought our souls.
Not sure if you are old enough, but I played Tyrian long time ago on my 486 PC at 50 Mhz (if I remember right) and after testing S60 port of Tyrian it woke in me some strange nostalgic feelings and brings OpenTyrian back memories of beautiful graphics, fast game play and a unremitting enemies.
Anyway, Tyrian is an arcade-style vertical scrolling shooter. The game is set in the year 20,031. Players play as a skil... .. .

Wow, I was completely shocked after reading something at my-symbian.com, Another guest (who also ported other games and stuff like PicoDrive (Sega Genesis/Mega Drive emulator) GPFce (NES emulator) and Miss Driller (Mr Driller clone) he finally ported Tyrian, an old DOS arcade style shooter, and also my favorite game of all time.
In short, Tyrian is a vertical arcade shooter with 2 main single player modes, Arcade Mode and a Full Mode, in the first one the playrer only has to focus in shooting stuff and picking up stuff, while in the Full Mode you can customize your ship.
