CURIOSITÀ
Shienryu è stato rilasciato in Giappone nel Dicembre 1996.

The title of this game translates from Japanese as 'Purple Flame Dragon'.

Most of the developers responsible for Shienryu had worked previously at Athena Co. Ltd. - before joining with Warashi - In the game entitled Daioh, hence the similarities of Daioh's ships, power-ups and innumerous boss designs.

The 1st boss design and combat environment in this game is clearly inspired by the 1st boss of "Daioh", a 1993 shoot-em-up produced by about the same staff. Also, the 3rd boss is clearly inspired by the 3rd boss in "Daioh". Perhaps more inspirations to find? (The main reason is that this game is actually produced by Daioh's staff).

The four pilot's names all translate or refer to gender-specific animals that simultaneously refer to their personalities. The names of the led pilots Herrenlose Katze and Kluger Hund translate in German as 'Abandoned Cat' and 'Clever Dog' while the 2nd player navigator Chien de Chasse translates in French as 'Hunting Dog'. The 1st player navigator's name, Felis Catulus, refers to the commonly domesticated genus of cats known as Felis catus.

Il gioco vieta le iniziali 'SEX' nella tabella dei punteggi record. Se ci provi, vengono sostituite in 'ISH'.
