Turrican Flashback

This is a compilation of classic action platformers in which players control a space marine fighting evil across the galaxy. From a side-scrolling perspective, players traverse platforms, avoid hazards, collect power-ups, and use a blaster to shoot enemies (e.g., robots, biomechanical creatures, sea creatures, aliens). Boss battles depict more frenetic action, with flying projectiles and explosions. A handful of levels depict blood-like effects: spine-like structures emitting blood drops; creatures with red vein-like material covering their bodies. In one game, a cutscene depicts a man with a cigar in his mouth.
