Scorpion is a platform/shoot 'em up video game developed and published by Digital Magic Software for the Amiga in 1989. The game was also re-released as Fly Fighter, with another title screen and another order of levels.
The player fights hordes of enemies while traversing five side-scrolling levels, such as a harbour, jungle and ice land, each of which is guarded by a powerful boss. The player character attacks enemies by firing energy bolts from their fingers.
The protagonist Scorpion is ostensibly fighting to rescue the kidnapped Princess of Scorpia. In a surprise ending, Scorpion kills the evil princess, revealing herself to be her good sister and now-sole heir to the throne.
