I played Turrican II on the Amiga back in the day. I could never reach past the undersea/aquatic world (The second world after the desert one). There was this jump you had to make which was impossible for me to progress further. I thought it was some bug by the game designers: How did they manage to make this jump so difficult for players?

But I loved the game. I liked the premise you were this human in a robotic exoskeleton that was exploring strange planets with exotic ETs and could also turn yourself into a rollerball that could annihilate anything in its path.

The music was epic too. I listened to a Spotify playlist of all the Turrican II music and it instantly brought me back.

This fan remake looks good, but it will never beat the original.
