Hi everyone,
I was hoping someone could help me remember the name of an old arcade game I first saw while I was on holiday many years ago. I call it a 'Turrican clone' but it's likely that it was made before Turrican. Anyway it's a futuristic shooty platform game where you play a red cyber robot type dude much like in Turrican, but there's less scope for climbing vertically as there is with Turrican. Each time you completed a mission you'd get the choice of which planet to visit next a bit like in Parasol Stars.
I think it was probably an arcade-only game. I wished at the time that I had it for the Amiga, but I don't think it was ever released for that platform. Any ideas?
