So true. Eventually this playthrough made me admit I really underestimated it.
After all, remember that talk about Hot Dogs we had? The Front Hot Dog Blaster is a pretty powerful weapon, but it's actually surpassed by the Atomic Railgun...
@GiftMacker99 Indeed, but the Mega Hot Dog shot (one of the Stalker 21.126's specials) is also stronger than the normal Hot Dog Front at Level 11. I also developed a strategy of my own; against certain enemies, I simply spam up with the Forward Lightning Shot (which is really effective against bosses and blimps.)
The Stalker's Hot Dog special is stronger than the weapon? Hm, that would explain why the special is so useful, yet getting the real weapon is nothing short of suicide.
Also, your strategy is really good, if you can input the commands quickly.
I do something similar, but chaotically : sometimes I just move the mouse up and down, erratically, spamming the Fire button. If it works well, it shoots Hot Dogs specials, faster than the real weapon. This costs quite some Armor, though.
@GiftMacker99 Which is why I try to stick with the Forward Lightning as it is even stronger than a Level 11 Lighting Cannon. On occasion I attempt a MineSpray, Guided Bomb Cluster, 5-Way Ice Beam and otherwise avoid as many enemy shots as I can as I also use the mouse.
Just curious, but what are the criteria for getting the bonus stage at the very end? Most of the time it doesn't appear for me despite not taking the earlier bonus orbs, so I assume there is something I'm missing.
What is the fade effect? (Tyrian Engage fade-to-black)

@gdm413229 No idea. It happens in-game ; I did not edit the video.

hey what porgram did you use to make this videos

@Jor8a
DosBox, an emulator. That's the program you need to actually play Tyrian, on most computers.
DosBox can record videos of what you're playing on it.

I also have to admit that the power of the Atomic Railgun is really underestimated. At first it looks nothing, but at full power...

ENGAGE mode rocks. Definitely a challenge worth playing.

I described in the next video. But just to summarize :
See the FIRST group of ships that approach on this level? Do NOT destroy the LAST one of the group.
Watch out ; after reaching the bottom of the screen, it flies back up, so make sure it escapes alive.
Then simply don't get any of the other two secret levels.
