Shienryu
Caravans are colony ships that venture into deep space in search of Earth-like
planets. Eventually, Caravan 7861 discovered a a suitable planet in another
star system. Nearly a hundred years later, the new mother planet became
overrun by aliens under the command of the mysterious Shienryu. Fortresses
were built with the goal of preventing any human development. Eventually, a
special team called Burn Dragoon was established, comprising the best pilots
who had to use all their skills against the alien threat.
Shienryu is a vertically scrolling shoot-em-up. The player-controlled ship
starts with the default vulcan gun, which can be later switches to laser beam
or missiles. Power-ups include weapon upgrades, speed enhancement (up to three
times), bombs that can be used alongside the main weapons (up to twenty),
temporary invulnerability, firepower and speed boost, and various items that
increase the player’s points.
