Also for the Megadrive there is a version of Turrican1.
This is another Accolade convertation... They also converted Turrican2 for the Megadrive, but they deproved it by exchanging some good levels and grafics with bad ones, and calling the thing "Universal Soldier".
The gameplay could have been better.
The controller of the Megadrive has enough buttons, but you have to click with one button trough the special attacks, and activate them with the firebutton.
Grafical it is not as good as the amiga version.
Also the music is not so nice, but this is ok, because the Megadrive's soundhardware is crap.
The levels are those from the amiga version.
This game might be the right thing for those Turrican fans, who search something difficult: If you touch an enemy, you lose very much energy!
There is also a funny bug:
The live display looks like this at first:
If you take now the live at the left in level1 at first, you have 25 ones!
