Ahhh. Turrican. The graphics, the Hülsbeck sound, the gameplay. How many hours I personally spent in front of the 2D shooter ... sweet memories 🤤.

Turrican II was (at least on the Amiga 500) always inferior to the DOS version. Reason: the limited color palette. For me, this never really influenced the gaming fun, and an Amiga 1200 or 4000 with AGA graphics were unfortunately a bit out of my financial reach at that time. And in addition there was never an AGA port!

Until today.

Sonic Sloth aka @SonicSlothGames changed that a few days ago. His version of Turrican II has nothing to do with Factor 5, costs no money, but is true to the original and comes with flawless AGA color palette. Playable also in the well-known emulators, but really fun of course only with a Competition Pro connected via cable to real hardware and on a real CRT.

Big thanks. Great game, awesome graphics!
