![]() Browser Turrican Awesomeness Robert, webmaster of turricanforever and teacher of Mädcheninformatik at a university, startet to implement a Turrican-Game playable in html5-Browsers. Quote: "Hyper Turrican Mega Leet 5 (abbr. HTML5) is a little experiment of mine to run T2002 levels in the browser. It's programmed in haXe using a game engine I originally implemented for teaching university courses in media computer-science (in German Mädcheninformatik, I think there is no real English translation for that). I also cheat a little by looking at some C++ code of an earlier effort to reimplement T2002 which I never finished. It runs in HTML5, Flash and natively in just about anything but right now I'm mainly interested in checking out if pure browser tech can handle the game. Currently have no idea how far and how fast (or slow) this will go. I'll use this thread as a change log. The current version is always available at http://player.robdangero.us. Playtest here: http://player.robdangero.us Comment and motivate there: Forum (and also sneek a peek at http://robdangero.us, turn on sound! ) | ||||
15.05.2012 The Lost Super-Turrican Level As stated on factor5.com, to fit on the cartridge several features and a whole level were cut from the final game. Quote from http://www.factor5.de/secrets_super_turrican.shtml: "On a final note about Super Turrican, if you look at the Enemy Gallery in the game manual that can be brought up by pushing the home button on the Wii-Remote, there are several nasty critters in there that you won't find in this official retail version of Super Turrican due to memory constraints. We were told to deliver the game in 4 Mbit (512 KByte), the smallest size cartridge available at the time, after finishing it as a 6 MBit title. Not only did we have to cut bits of art in several places, but also a full stage and a feature of the new Beam weapon: Not only could it freeze enemies, but also melt frozen ones, something that the player had to discover in the Ice World and that led into a stage set on a Robot Transport hurtling through the clouds. But it wouldn't fit - and thus, somewhere, on a forgotten floppy disk, there still might exist the original Super Turrican - Director's Cut."

![]() Bitjam Turrican Podcast is out! "Episode #151 - Turrican Special The classic "Turrican" games brought nonstop action to all gaming systems of the 80's and 90's (including the C64, Amiga, Atari ST and PC, as well as the Sega Genesis and Super Nintendo). The beautiful synthesizer soundtracks for the series were created by Chris Huelsbeck, arguably one of today's most popular game music composers in the world. His music certainly played a major role in shaping "Turrican" into a digital legend over the years. Chris has recently announced plans to bring the cosmic warrior back from retirement, with the production of a "Soundtrack Anthology" - an epic limited edition box set of no less than four CDs, which will feature almost every melody from the saga in newly arranged and recorded versions! More information on this box set, which will only be available until June 3rd, 2012, can be found at www.turricansoundtrack.com. Almost two decades after the last "Turrican" title was released, BitJam pays tribute to these games and their wonderful music with a dedicated podcast episode. Featured tracks include remixes by Chris himself, as well as a selection of fan arrangements, handpicked by Huelsbeck and the co-producers of his "Turrican Soundtrack Anthology". Mixing by Vincenzo, logo #151 by H2O, compiled by Chris Huelsbeck, Jan Zottmann & Thomas Böcker. Thank you to Bobic for his help! 01. Chris Huelsbeck - Turrican Anthology Teaser Demo 02.

In german: "In den 1980er und 1990er Jahren brachten die Spiele der Turrican-Reihe pausenlose Action auf alle möglichen Computer- und Videospielsysteme (einschließlich dem C64, Amiga, Atari ST und PC, sowie dem Sega Mega Drive, Super Nintendo und Game Boy). Die herrlichen Synthesizer-Soundtracks dieser Spiele wurden von Chris Hülsbeck komponiert, einem der beliebtesten Spielemusikkomponisten der Welt. Seine Musik hat einen wichtigen Teil dazu beigetragen, damit Turrican über all die Jahre hinweg zu einer digitalen Legende wurde. Erst kürzlich hat Chris angekündigt, den kosmischen Krieger aus dem Winterschlaf zurückholen zu wollen - in Form der "Turrican Soundtrack Anthology", einer umfassenden, limitierten CD-Box mit nicht weniger als vier Silberscheiben! So gut wie jede Melodie aus der Turrican-Saga wird darauf in neu arrangierten, überarbeiteten Versionen zu hören sein. Weitere Informationen zu diesem Box-Set, welches nur noch bis zum 03. Juni 2012 vorbestellbar ist, sind unter www.turricansoundtrack.com zu finden. Knapp zwei Jahrzehnte, nachdem der letzte Turrican-Titel veröffentlicht wurde, erinnert man sich beim Demoszene-Portal BitFellas an diese Spiele und ihre Musik in Form eines Podcasts. Der BitJam Podcast #151: Turrican Special wurde von Chris Hülsbeck selbst in Zusammenarbeit mit Jan Zottmann (Produzent von Immortal 4) und Thomas Böcker (Initiator der Symphonic-Konzerte) zusammengestellt. Er beinhaltet die beliebtesten Turrican-Remixe der drei Musikspezialisten, darunter auch eine wunderschöne Neuauflage des bekannten "The Great Bath"-Themas aus Turrican 2 im Piraten-Stil, sowie hervorragende Synthie-Covers von Mastertronic und viele andere hochinteressante Klangvarianten. Von Chris Hülsbeck selbst stammt nicht nur der Turrican Anthology Teaser, sondern auch die Musik aus dem Level 1-2 aus Mega Turrican, sowie der Turrican 3 "Freedom" Song vom seinem ersten Turrican-Album. Außerdem richtet der Soundmagier zu Beginn ein paar Worte an die BitJam-Hörer und seine Fans. Jan Zottmann und Fabian del Priore (u.a. Giana Sisters DS, Cultures 2) zeichen sich hingegen für zwei bislang unveröffentlichte Lieder verantwortlich, die in diesem Podcast zum ersten Mal der Öffentlichkeit präsentiert werden. Der BitJam Podcast #151: Turrican Special ist kostenlos im MP3-Format erhältlich. Ein CUE-Sheet zum Erstellen der passenden Audio-CD existiert ebenfalls."
