Hello all Turrican and Metroid fans!

My new Levelpack called Mmetroidican is Turrican game based on Metroid 2D series tilesets and story.
I got that idea after i first played Super metroid, and was surprised how Samus aran is similar to Turrican hero.
I did my best to capture the classic charm of Super metroid, and I hope that i successed.
During the game look for some secret locations, I have added many :)!

2) Recommended settings

For the best balance between the musics and the SFX, set the music to 100%, and the SFX to about 60% or 70%.
If you have a gamepad or a digital joytick: Use it.


3) Story:

Years have passed, since The Machine has been defeated on planet 
Katakis. Yet many more years will pass, until the person known as Samus 
Aran will be born.
The peaceful and freed inhabitants of Katakis joined the interstellar 
Union and the UTFF. When the first important top secret mission was 
assigned to the Katakians, they choose their best man, and equipped him 
with a Turrican assault suit.

This man is you!

You will be sent to planet Naris: A Union scientific laboratory has been 
attacked by the alien Space Pirates. The lab's task was to discover the 
secrets of the extincting Chozo, the intelligent inhabitants of Naris.
The Chozo are known as a peaceful and very spiritual race, however, the 
video records of the attack show Chozo as the Space Pirate allies...

The Agency for intelligence gathering (AIG) does not exclude the 
possibility of mental possession by some powerful alien intellect.

To accomplish you mission, you have to achieve the following tasks:

- Invade the temple of the Chozo, and secure their artifacts.
- Find and, if possible, rescue the Chozo, who behave as usual.
- You are authorized to eliminate enemy units after your own judgment

The temple is manned by the known Space Pirate Father Brian and his 
troops. AIG assumes, it is essential to eliminate Father Brian to 
accomplish your tasks.

AIG also discovered, that the Space Pirates shipped their materials for 
their experiments with the newly discovered and as extreme dangerous 
classified creatures called Metroids into the temple. Their code name: 
"Immortal Metal Ridley".
