Developed by Eclipse Software and published by Epic MegaGames, Tyrian is a vertically scrolling shooter developed originally released for MS-DOS 1995. In 1999, Tyrian was re-released as Tyrian 2000, which includes an additional fifth episode and bug fixes.
The Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance versions of Tyrian 2000 were developed by World Tree Games; after the publisher Symmetry Entertainment closed down, the European publisher Stealth Productions, Inc. (Stealth Media Group, Inc.) obtained the publication rights, but the game was cancelled.
Both Game Boy versions were eventually released in compiled format in 2007 as freeware by World Tree Games.
In the Game Boy Color version, the Full Game incorporates a shorter story (from Episodes 1-4) than the original DOS game, but planet Ixmucane core always gets destroyed at the end, and the levels were redesigned. The rear weapon from the DOS game is not available. The player can carry two Sidekick weapons at once, but only one is usable at a time. New game modes and items can be unlocked by purchasing Extras using credits obtained by completing a stage.
The Game Boy Advance version incorporates graphics from the DOS game, but the level layout and game play are based on the Game Boy Color game. Two Sidekick weapons can be fired at the same time. Super Arcade and audio are not included. New to this game is Challenge mode, where additional levels are unlocked by completing existing Challenge levels.
