Awesome game that takes its cues from "Turrican" in almost every respect—and in a good way. Anyone who has been eagerly awaiting a fourth part will likely find a technically worthy alternative here. We are extremely excited about the finished version, which will hopefully feature better in-game music (the current tracks sound a bit too much like a "cracktro"). Our German-language preview can be found at 06:04:07. English subtitles are also available. Subscription to our YouTube and Twitch channel is welcome. 🙂
Thanks for you kind words, although Turrican is of course a much better game with all those dozens of enemies on the screen and the variety of weapons. If my programming skills would be better I would try to get a bit closer to the original but that's life. My aim is to make a small game in my spare time to support the Amiga community with new stuff hehe. :-) Of course Radio PARALAX is well known to me as you played Minky at the Gamescon. Incredible, thanks again!
Excellent new game coming. I added it to my video along with other games released in June.
Man, your game looks spectacular. The first level clearly shows that you're on the right track to creating a great adventure; the level design is extremely interesting, I loved it. The music, just as you mentioned in the credits, is indeed superb!
I played it yesterday with my community during a private live stream for my Patreons. I’m leaving the stream here just out of curiosity (my channel is Brazilian) in case you want to take a peek (I played it via MiSTer).
Looking forward to the final version. Again, it's spectacular!Hey, nice. I don't understand a single word but who cares. :-) Thanks for the Video
We'd love to publish! Drop us a message (hello @ thalamusdigital.co.uk)
Hi:) Great game! It really reminds me of Turrican. Once it's finished, we will definitely review it in our magazine.
By the way, are you planning to release your game as a physical boxed edition (3.5" floppy disk, CD, or USB)? If so, we'd be happy to help make that happen.
Best regards,
Arek and the Komoda & Amiga Team
@Matze1887:
Looks fun! - what tracker / module format are you using? - impressive music.
Hi ! Standard Protracker.
Really? - wow! - those samples must be quite large. I mean a long lasting pulse width modulation cycle (like on the C64) is usually not possible in ProTracker afair. Impressive.
Please support 2-button joystick :-)
Hi, will do ! :-)
This looks quite impressive! I see you have multiple Amiga games written in 68k asm. Could you please message me at songbird@songbird-productions.com? Would love to chat about possible Jaguar ports. Thanks!
OCS?
No, sorry. :-(
ECS/AGA?
AGA, Standard A1200 2MB Chip config.
YEEEEH! Any chance of a big update to the itch io page? Description, story, what was it designed in? levels? type of game? Any future plans? etc :)
Great game, thanks.
Thanks for the video !!!
Awesome game!
Thanks for the vid, great work as always. :-)
Love it. Keep up the great work Matze!
Maybe change the name to "Alien Mission" ? Very nice gfx :)
Would love to help incase you need Testers . i have a Amiga1200 with BlizzardIV/30 WB 3.1 two Amiga 500 one default with trapdor ram and another with ACA500+ 3.1 and a cd32 standart, also Winuae (3.1 and 3.9 installed) on win10, and a Turbo Chameleon 2 fully installed Amiga 3.1. Also Gotek and usual Floppydrives avail. and working, some C64 and other Retroconsoles (nintendo/Sony) NividiaShield ect. Got a bit experience in testing and bughunting & reporting but not in coding, i was 2 Years head of support for Dungeon and Dragons online 2006-2008 at Alchemic Dreams in sub for Codemasters / Turbine Inc., and i was also Tester for Empyrion Galactic Empire (German Dev: Eleon) 2016-2018 all in homeoffice with email skype/ discord ect and zendesk for reporting.
Thanks a lot, I come back to you when there is some disk image ready for testing.
News?
Nah, still in work... about 5 Levels done, waiting for the musician. :-) We want to release a 1 level demo in about 2 weeks.
Looking forward to that :) The game looks great!
Rather boring if you ask me, but perhaps I just playtest too much. :-)
Haha, yes, I know how that is. I beta-tested a few Amiga games :)
I hope the game will feature Minky cameo as an easter egg :)
That mouse, you know ;-)
Yeah, that mouse that should be a monkey. ;-)
check you gmail,i have some three channel tunes that might be good for your project :)
Hi, thanks a lot, already listened to them. At the moment I have some other dude working on the music so I need to wait if he comes up with something. But don't throw your stuff away, very nice music.
Well, you put "Turrican" in the tags, I have to follow the project.
It's the law !
My Amiga 1200 awaits this awesome looking assembly game!
kudos for making this game in assembler, in a time where everything else is just lazy Scorpion Engine slop! graphics look sweet too. please dont ruin it with an AI generated title image
will this run on a real Amiga 500?
I really love to see games that will run on a a500 because to me that is the platform I have nostalgia for.
At the moment I am using 16 color dual playfield mode which would need an A1200 but my aim is to get it running on an standard A500 at the end.
Good Work dear friend!
Looks fantastic. Will it run on my beloved Amiga 1000?
The current version not, the end product hopefully yes. :-)
keep going! I cannot wait!
Any gameplay? Looks epic ;)
I will upload a small video next week.
Can't wait :)
https://www.indieretronews.com/2025/11/mission-alien-action-shooter-in-dev-by.ht... featured! Is this scorpion engine developed? How many levels? When will there be a better game description! AHHHHHHHH looks sooo good
Assembler, why do all people nowadays think everything is Scorpion Engine. :-)
You're welcome, glad you liked the feature!
Of course I like it, I visit your site at least 10 times a day. Great stuff.
wooo!! I've added in Assembler to the write up. Can't wait for a video
It is awesome that this is not scorpion. As fun as it is - very limited for a normal person.
I think Scorpion Engine is a great thing and pretty good optimized if I look at releases like "Phantom Leap" and so on... doesn't look very "limited" to me. :-)
Limited in a sense that all the games look the same... when it comes to the mechanic and etc. I think this is the biggest issue with scorpion right now - You cannot do super customized games with that like If you would program everything by yourself. Understandable.
Because most people are not capable to program the Amiga properly! ;-)
Take my money :D
Looks Awesome Matze!!! 🥰 Exited for the Release.
This looks great! 😍
It already looks very nice... Many Thanks for this project.
Wir sind gespannt - Viel Erfolg für die weitere Entwicklung!
Dankeschöööön. :-)
Awesome, looking forward to it!
Looks like...a hurrican of a game... ;)
Yes, that "hurricane" was my intention. :-)
