Once Bren McGuire was sure he was alone on the ravaged ship, he lay still. When he realizes he is the only one left, he rushes to the equipment room. In the Turrican fighting suits, Bren sees the most advanced technology in the world today. As he climbs into the suit, he shouts, “Revenge!” [Source]
This is an unofficial remake of Turrican 2 for the Commodore Amiga. It is not associated with Factor 5. It is not to be sold. Getting the PC version of Turrican 2 on an Amiga is by far the best way to enjoy it!
I really like the look and feel of this Turrican 2 remake. It brings to mind a couple of other picks Exolon and Sector 781 both by indie game dev Ben James and also to some extent Life On Earth Reimagined by Kai Magazine Software. I like the platform/shmup level combination and I really like the soundtrack which is much better than the in the game. Listen to it here. Plus the full remake is free to play right now! – Donnie, Editor, GFB
