Gaurodan is a remake of the classic game from the 80's featuring 11 progressively difficult levels.

You begin the game as an egg, and once you destroy a few things on the first level, you hatch and become a bird. Then the game becomes progressively more difficult. Or, the official description beyond egg and bird - Long forgotten is the legend of Gaurodan, the bird of thunder and his fight with Guayota, the fire beast. But now mankind has discovered the egg of Guayota within Mount Teide, and it's a matter of time until Gaurodan returns from the sky to fight his ancestral enemy and punish men for their actions.

The game can last as short as 30 minutes with 11 levels. You'll want to pay attention to the available power-ups, especially health because you only have one life.
