A bit of a late one for Indie Retro News but it just had to be spread far and wide, as Amiga Jay has released the 'Factor 5 The Complete Amiga Works - an unofficial Amiga CD32 release'. This could well be the highlight of Amiga Jay's compilation packs, as it features many of Factor 5's incredible games that most of us still play and talk about to this day. Games such as R-Type, Turrican, Turrican II and Turrican 3. But other games are also included like B.C Kid, Denaris, Katakis and Tony & Friends in Kellogg's Land. That's 8 incredible games you'll be playing again and again on your Amiga CD32!

Game Info : Welcome to an all time classic game, a historic game if you will. A game that is set in the heart of millions of Retro fans across the world. Welcome to Turrican, which was originally programmed and designed by Manfred Trenz (1989/90). It also first came out on the C64, and then appeared on a multitude of systems under different developers, such as, Factor 5(Amiga). You are Turrican, a warrior, bio-engineered for the task of planetary reclamation. To return to The lost colony of Alterra and defeat the MORGUL while fighting it's many hostile creatures. This series of games had the most awesome of sound tracks by Chris Hülsbeck, which are still being remixed today. It also had, not just brilliant action based shooting (with a weapon that fired in different ways), but also some of the best looking platform scenery. I won't go into to much detail in this, as if I get it wrong, I'll be linched by the many Turrican fans! Suffice to say, you just have to play it. What's more, this isn't just the first Turrican for you to try, but Turrican 2 and Turrican 3.
