Overview
The first shoot 'em up outing for the PC Genjin series, PC Denjin look and sounds very much like an industrial version of Coryoon. There is a wide variety of weapons and character-transforming power-ups to obtain, including 'friends' that follow after you and attack the enemies in their own special way.

You say...
Air Zonk is a Hudson adaptation of the prehistoric Bonk series into a futuristic shoot-em-up.  The Cute-em-up Coryoon was something of a dry run for this game, featuring some similar mechanics.  This game features a banging soundtrack, whacky enemies, and some top notch shooting action.  This one is actually one on my fave shooters for the Engine, it's not too difficult, but it's also not afraid to try different things.  You can join up with a friend halfway through a level to for a humungous beast with some insane firepower, or alternatively sometimes you can miniaturise yourself for help dodging bullets.  Bosses are quite challenging, but very inventive (and very large).  There isn't anything quite like this anywhere else, and it's great.
