Notes

[1] Peter Thierolf joined Neon Studios (the developers of Mr. Nutz: Hoppin' Mad) while coding Turrican 3. The Amiga Mr. Nutz graphics engine was then used as the basis for Amiga Turrican 3. Thus, the Amiga source code is copyrighted to Neon Studios. (Source: Peter Thierolf)

[2] As can be seen in the source code of the game, the design for the Machine in Turrican 3 has been inspired by the Marvel character called Stryfe: http://marvel.com/universe/Stryfe

[3] Distributed in Germany by Rushware.
