The whole first level has been fully refactored from Davide Bottino, the guy behind the currently developed Toki C64 remake. He also redraw for me several sprites. All of them are planned but we have to solve the MSX1 limited VRAM issue (I already have some ideas on how to solve it). Go check his channel!

![]() TURRiCANOS • Game Project • WiP As already seen in the shoutbox, a while ago I received an email about a promising new Turrican-Project, currently named "TURRiCANOS": "Hello, About two years ago I started working on the Turricanos project. And now, after two years, I'm coming back to it again because I had to put it down at the time. I have created a development log at the https://forum.godotengine.org/t/turricanos-game-project-wip/34664 I would like to finish it this year. Most of the work on it is already done ( levels, enemies, etc. ). I'm currently putting it together and remembering how I did it all two years ago. :) I'll post progress and how the project is progressing at the above address. So I'm answering the challenge on your site, I've been following your site for a very long time and I'm a big fan of Turrican since the AMIGA and C64 days. " It´s an attempt to remake Turrican 1-3 into one, apparently written in the Godot-Engine and already features some tasty particle-effects. Follow it here: https://forum.godotengine.org/t/turricanos-game-project-wip/34664 Bonus: there´s a really nice Turrican-Piano cover hidden in die comments on this page! | ||||
