Never liked it, I think it's silly at best... I always thought a proper take on the suit design would be closer to Master Chief (Halo) than that... thing on the cover!

... and yeah, the DOS intro sequence is a mixed bag: awesome ship design, awful character design!
I quite like our box art version of the suit, and also the Turrican 3 box art bonus inexplicable dinosaur. It could’ve been much worse, we dodged this guy and his shiny chrome pecs. (And strategically placed groin explosion?)

Seriously though this is such a great idea for a project.

I wonder what a palette adjusted for ms-dos colours, slightly smoothed to fit in with the vga assets version of our beloved little guy would look like? Basically what would it look like if they’d done what you’d have expected from them in the first place rather than strangely riff on the 8bit versions.
