Turrican 1 different versions/gfx?
So, I'm positive I recall having a single disk version of Turrican 1 which had a somewhat different loading screen and a the in-game gfx were more crude. For the life of me, I can't find the disk or a download of that version . Anybody else knows of this version? I;m pretty sure I wasn't dreaming
Thx! |

Well, tbh no, I'm not sure. But the disk wasn't marked as a demo. However, I wouldn't mind even if it's a demo with those different gfx, if you could point me to its direction, thx!

Thx Arnie, I think I've tried those already, but I'll have another go when I get back home and report back!

A bit off topic but in regards to Turrican II I've never found a version that has the intro show at HOL: http://hol.abime.net/1535/screenshot

Yup, there are few credits loops and then the intro appears.
@vulture Nemmelheim knows everything about Turrican series. You should check it. http://www.nemmelheim.de/turrican/bonusfiles.php Last edited by TCD; 12 January 2016 at 12:29. Reason: Back-to-back posts merged. |

You sure it wasn't Super Obliteration? Its a pang style PD game that uses the turrican sprite.

@Superman
Yup, it was definitely a different version of Turrican 1. It might be an early demo though, as already suggested, we'll see. |

My cracked version of Turrican 2 (yes, guilty) crashed before those credits could be shown. Perhaps that also answers why some others have not seen them until now?

Well, as far as I know, a different title screen and cruder graphics could be attributed to that shitty Genesis port with cover art by Julie Bell. As for the early Bren sprite, here's some scans from Generation 4:
It resembled the C64 version a bit more but apparently it was changed due to being too feminine. |
