''Gyruss'' was an arcade game developed and published by Creator/{{Konami}} in 1983. Gameplay is similar to ''VideoGame/{{Galaga}}'' in that you have to shoot down scores of enemy ships as they fly in and out of formation. However, the playing field is displayed in a ''VideoGame/{{Tempest}}''-like 3D perspective, allowing your ship to rotate a full 360 degrees.

* AWinnerIsYou: Beating the NES version gives you a screen saying "The Universe Is At Peace" before sending you right back to the beginning of the game. You don't even get ''that'' in the arcade version.

!!Gyruss uses the following tropes:
* AdaptationExpansion: The NES version of the game has you flying from the outer planets toward the Sun, whereas the arcade game stopped your journey at Earth. It also has improved graphics, better music (and more songs), new types of enemies, bonus stages, super phaser shots, mini-bosses and bosses. In short: They Changed It Now It's ''Awesome''.
* BonusStage: Every fourth level.
* KonamiCode: The NES version had it, giving you a bunch of lives and super phaser shots. However, the twist is that you have to enter the code ''backward'' for it to work properly.
* RockMeAmadeus: A well-done remix of Back's ''Toccata and Fugue in D-minor''.
