Died on the alien-train level (4-2):



192,700

And I agree with rexsu - the snow-level is difficult.

Lost 9 lives in the ice world.
Lost my last 5 lives in the alien train stage.
Thus I'm now in a condition where I could kill someone without feeling any guilt or remorse.

I hope your joypad survived
Also have to say that the ice level and the train stage are the ones that 'destroy' the game for me. Pure side-scrolling annoyance Not much to do with Turrican IMO. Anyway... you're getting damn close

I fully agree.

It's definitely possible I could fail completing this - those pixelexact jumps in the train stage are extremely frustrating.

This time reached the ice-world with 20 lives (+1) where I lost my first one.
Lost 4 lives in the ice-world.
Lost 6 lives in the alien train stage.



The Machine...yeah, right...
I like this game. And if they had completed it and added the final world with an epic battle against the Machine it could have been as good as Mega Turrican.

As it is it's the worst 16bit-Turrican (if you don't count the Code Monkeys' Genesis-ports Turrican and Universal Soldier...). But still a good game.

Yes - I missed a lot of diamonds. If Retro, Rexsu or you is motivated enough to put a little more effort into it he'll beat the score easily.

My first ever go at this. The Star Wars style crushing wall got my last life. I missed loads of extra lives according the game.

The wall is nasty. Took me 3 attempts to find the 'right' way up. Some extra lives are very hard to get. In the very first level there is a path way up that leads to the left and you have to jump while the rainstorm extra thingy blows you off the platforms, the lightning toast you *and* there are also enemies. It's a tad overkill if you ask me
Cheers for joining again Biscuit
