The best Turrican and one of the best run and guns on the Sega Genesis.
Turrican vets tend to dislike this one due to its more streamlined approach to level design, but I found its pacing to be just right. Although it's more of a left-to-right affair compared to its predecessors, there is still enough phony walls and secrets to discover in each stage. That being said, the last few stages do increase in scope and feel more like something that would have come out of the original.
The music, of course, is peak Genesis and just screwing around with the Bionic Commando style grappling hook is a lot of fun. This is one of few Genesis games I went out of my way to complete on the hardest difficulty, and I enjoyed every minute of mastering it for RetroAchievements.
