Shooter / Horizontal
Coryoon is a cute side-scrolling shooter by Naxat Soft. The player takes control of a small flying dragon whose best friend, a beautiful young princess, has been transformed into a little girl and captured by an evil demon named A-Dāru. But the mysterious and demonic villain has also doomed the world and left behind his legions of terrible monsters. Coryoon, our pet dragon, has only one thing left to do; he must face a near impossible quest, defeat the advancing foes and eventually overpower their master. Coryoon has an arsenal of three fire-blowing techniques to help him in his fight. These power orbs are carried around by pink storks and range from red flames (powerful but with a limited range), blue waves (fast, wide and long range) and yellow lightnings (small but can be fired in many directions at once). Each weapon can be powered up a maximum of three times and the player can release the fire button for a short amount of time to charge up more powerful fireballs. Although most of the enemies drop fruits when defeated, some drop special items in the shape of playing card suits (such as small dragon (diamond), protective fairies (heart) and smart bomb (spade)) and rare giant chickens even drop dragon-options!

Coryoon is a fantastic and joyful shooter. Graphics are ludicrously creative and give the game its own unique and distinctive personality.. Although Coryoon is undoubtedly cute and aimed primarily at kids, it displays some incredible technical qualities - smooth and fast parallax scrolling, stunning backgrounds, large sprites and tons of them on screen without any slowdown. This comes at a price though and the only down point for me is the on screen confusion - it often leaves you looking for your character behind a wall of fruits and enemy sprites. Believe me, this is the first time I complain about a game for displaying too many sprites on screen! The soundtrack also features catchy and energetic tunes by Daisuke Morishima; he also composed the soundtrack for PC Denjin and, as a side note, both games share a lot in common and a quick look at the staff rolls certainly gives some answers. All in all, Coryoon is a delightful shooter despite a fluctuating difficulty level (often on the easy side) and the occasional sprite overflow (which can actually be turned off, see the 'no fruits mode' from the secret section).
