I'm back with more Tyrian 2000 action, this time with the 1 Player Arcade Mode. This was the first playing mode of the game I became familiar with, because I took some time to learn the dynamics of the 1 Player Full Game Mode (using the points as money and buying the upgrades to the Front and Rear Weapons, Hull, Shields and Generator, and buying Left and Right Sidekicks, and only having one life). In this mode, the power level of the Front Weapon is equal to the number of lives, the Rear Weapons can only be upgraded with Powerups and Sidekicks are collectables that are replaced by picking them up. Front and Rear Weapons can be changed in the same way. Balloons with sky blue background are Front Weapons, the ones with red background are Rear Weapons and the ones with green background are Sidekicks. The purple balloons give extra lives after collecting a certain amount that grows with the powers of 2, this is, when you have 0 remaining lives, picking 1 purple balloon will give an extra life, for the next extra life it is necessary to collect 2, then 4, then 8 and so on. Be warned that when the ship is destroyed, the purple balloon count resets to 0, so trying not to die is imperative.

For video duration reasons, I only played the first 3 Episodes. As the game can't be saved in this mode, I played the remaining 2 episodes straight away, which I will show in the next video.
See you there!
