Thanks for this run, Jaimers!! It's one of my favorite Toaplan games, personally. I remember how people were extatic when Ketsui was out, and were impressed by the fact that there was almost no break between stages, but it was already a Toaplan tradition (Dogyuun, Tatsujin Ou/Truxton II, ...etc).
Weapon info: Mega Shot -- Starting weapon. Strong central shot, but very minimal coverage. Most of the game can be cleared with this weapon. Tapping faster or using autofire can make this weapon a little stronger. Psycho Beam -- Swirling homing weapon. Lots of coverage, but only two beams can be on screen at a time. A pleasant weapon to use, but the power can seem lacking at times. Tapping faster or using autofire make no difference. V-Laser -- Shoots a laser in the shape of a V. Center is left exposed, but there is decent side coverage. Helpful for some bosses and certain enemy configurations. Tapping or autofire prevent this weapon from working. Homing Fire -- Shoots two pairs of homing lasers that travel in straight lines and right angles. Tapping or autofire will result in both volleys leaving quicker, but no help beyond that.
The whole game was initially supposed to be a mech-based overhead action/fighting game, but the prototype apparently did poorly during location testing so the concept was scrapped and Dogyuun was swiftly remolded into a shoot-em-up, not particularly surprising, considering Toaplan's history. This little segment is all that remains of the original game gameplay-wise, but I think quite a few of the bosses (and definitely the title screen) probably made the transition more or less unscathed, seeing how many of them are giant humanoid robots.
@@apostlenik809Yeah im glad they decided to go this direction this and Tatsujin Oh are their best looking games graphically gameplay wise i think all their releases are a lot of fun and quite challenging
36:13 Insert Toy Story 2 reference here. Remember that scene where the rock ‘em sock ‘em robots were fighting each other? “Hey, he was talking to me!” “No, he was talking to me! Why you!”
It seems like this game's name must be a Japanese onomatopoeia, making it a sort of predecessor to (do)donpachi, but I can't figure out exactly what it's supposed to mean. The "do" is probably the same as in dodonpachi, that is, the sound of a gun firing. "Gyuun", on the other hand, is the sound of something being squeezed. What does that have to do with the game I have no idea.
@@evanseifert8858 In an interview with the developers they said the name was just the sound one of the lasers makes. You can hear that same sound in the title screen at 0:42. They thought it was funny so they went with that.

And speaking of which, this game came out 7 years before the movie in question came out.
You make this game look easier than it is. Im getting completely railroaded

Dogyuun is my favourite infinite looping game that's actually not.
This game is so good and not too hard considering it's a Toaplan game
*KYLE!!!!!*
what's the final boss name?
Is this game related to grind stormer??
Grind Stormer/V-Five is the _narrow_ scrolling.

Perhaps that's the sound of an airplane flying.
@@alist6667 That's certainly possible. It seems like it's gotta be something indirect like that.

@@emperorIng360 Oh wow, I never would have guessed that. Thanks for the info.
@emperorIng360
"Dogyuun" (Bang) is a generic onomatopoeia for most guns, not just not lasers; especially those with some trailing
Why does the orange shot turn red?
Emulation or video conversion?
Dogyuun Not Working In Mame4droid
It works but can't see the background 😕
