I guess it is about time to really play this fantastic version. Thanks

That's stellar Muzza, thx!

OM F'ing G!

Your timing is impeccable!

I think your past releases have fallen on or close to Fridays which are the end of my working week so I can relax with a blast of this awesome, ultimate Turrican 2 version. Today is my pseudo-Friday as I've got Thu and Fri off so this is exactly what I will be playing tonight.

Thank you so much.

The support for this game is outstanding, another new and improved version. Very nice!

Is there a way we could reward/compensate you for your outstanding work? Or donate to a charity?

Huzzah! I've postponed playing the game properly until the bugfixes are ready so I can fully enjoy it. I know what I will be doing this weekend!

pintcat · 15 February 2023, 22:32

I think the old save file isn't compatible with the latest update since all my hi-scores and settings are gone. But anyway, awesome work! This makes me play this goldie over and over again.

I meant to make the old saved data convert to the new format but forgot to do it. So yes, you will lose settings, saves, and hiscores.

Also I recommend deleting your existing folder before copying the new one across, because the files have changed significantly.

Can't speak highly enough of this! Probably mentioned before but can't seem to find anything - is there a way to donate to the developer? I have bought The Last Warlock of course, but is there any other way? A named charity even?

dlfrsilver · 17 February 2023, 20:01

This version works flawlessly on my Amiga 1230. What a damn fucking great job !

Buy it again and pay more than the requested price

Reido · 17 February 2023, 23:42

Was looking for that option on Steam but couldn't see it... will look again so

Torti-the-Smurf · 18 February 2023, 00:21

Turrican 2 is pretty much (one of) my all time favorite Game(s).

I love Turrican 2 AGA so much and especially the End credits

Thank you so much Muzza
