Soh Jin, a secret level in the first episode had destructible "red blocks" that did massive Collision Damage if you bumped into them.A good number of players consider it to be this as it is very short, contains no new music, the new weapons and ships are no match for the stuff that the first four episodes have to offer, and much of the artwork was not done by Daniel Cook, the original sprite artist for Tyrian. Seasonal Rot: Episode 5, included in Tyrian 2000.Scrappy Mechanic: If you choose to play with anything besides a mouse, be prepared for a bad time when you notice that your ship has a bit of momentum any time you release the movement controls, which can make precision maneuvers difficult.You can still play the game with the mouse. Good Bad Bugs: If you activate the invincibility cheat in story mode, quit, and then start a game in one of the arcade modes or Super Tyrian (which disables cheat codes), you'll still be invincible as long as you don't press any keys during levels.If used at the most opportune time, you can never run low on armor. Any ship that allows you to convert your shields into armor makes survival of all but most intense levels a breeze.It combines penetration into a huge blue laser the width of your entire ship! On top of a Front Laser/Zica Laser, you'll obliterate anything not flagged as invulnerable. Penetration weapons are nasty enough, but in a secret level of Episode 4, you can find a Wave Motion Gun on steroids, the obscene "SDF Main Gun".You should die from doing this in a realistic sense, but you don't. Penetration weapons, such as the Mega Cannon and Zica Flamethrower may not seem all that powerful, until you realize that you can "affect" many enemies, including bosses, with them and One-Hit Kill a lot of them by ramming your ship into them.Ear Worm: Most of the music in the game, although the music from the very first level deserves special mention.To give you an idea of how bad the green platforms are on higher difficulties, even the almighty SDF Main Gun will take several shots to kill one of them. On the higher difficulty levels, nearly every enemy becomes a Demonic Spider, especially in Super Arcade Mode and Super Tyrian where you have no rear gun and crappy shields.They come in threes, fire at quite a fast rate and take forever to die. The green platform-like ships in the Deliani levels.The game's SETUP and SHIPEDIT programs have a "Jukebox" mode where you can just sit back and listen to the music.
