I’ll forgive you for spamming as long as you treat Tyrian with respect while you do it

a) that post was probably a chatbot who copy pasta-ed google search results. many such cases already. (something something, do ur jebs , mods)
b)arcade mode still exists. and having savegames is not infinite continues. if you die in a single stage in normal mode, you have to restart it or load a previous save. it's not like how you can keep dropping quarters in an arcade game.

Tyrian is a shmup for people who hate shmups. It's a fucking rpg euroshmup with inertia and you control it with your mouse. This is not a shmup and western developers fundamentally do not understand what a shmup is.

Westerners invented them and made all the best ones. Jeff Minter alone made better shooters than all the Jap ones put together.

>you know, as i know, i was the best at Tyrian. And now they make a 2000? Unbelievable, can you believe this people? They make it again, just because of my score I had.

>>12756834
no, the original shareware that ended with deliani was the best.

>fucking rpg euroshmup with inertia and you control it with your mouse
you can literally play it with a joystick or gamepad... or keyboard. you're a bot and never played it. mods and jebs, maaaaaan.

>Hey let's make a game aboout dodging bullets except...
>Let's handicap your motion with inertia so that way you can see the bullets and dodge the bullets except your ship can't move out of the way in time
But either way you have inertia. Inertia in shmups, not even once. That one design choice will ruin the game forever and beyond recognition or playability. It's virtually no different than playing with screen lag.
>>
>>12760709
Also, of course then the developer will have to compensate with slower enemies, slower bullets, fewer bullets and enemies, less dense patterns... so what's the point of this? They just slowed down the entire game into something that feels like you and everything else is moving in molasses and managing this style of movement as a handicap. In a fast paced arcade style game. It literally ruins the game at a fundamental level.
