Open Tyrian is an open source port of Epic MegaGames' 1995 DOS shoot-em-up Tyrian, one of the most acclaimed vertical scrollers of its era. The project makes the game accessible on modern PC hardware without requiring a DOS environment or emulator.

The source code has received a new commit, marking continued active development on the port. For fans of classic arcade-style space shooters, Open Tyrian remains one of the most straightforward ways to revisit this retro gem on a contemporary PC setup.
