App Details

This is my Switch port of Hurrican, a freeware jump and shoot game created by Poke53280 that is based on the Turrican game series. Blast your way through nine action-packed levels filled with different enemies and powerups.

Everything needed to play is already included in the archive.

Port by @rsn8887.

Controls
Left analog stick = walk/duck/aim (hold up/down to look)
Dpad = walk/duck/aim (hold up/down to look)
Y = shoot
B = jump
X = hold for lightning beam (control angle with stick/dpad left/right)
A = powerline
R = grenade
L = cycle weapon type
ZR = smart bomb
Current Limitations
Don't try to remap buttons in the controls menu, it asks for a button press, but doesn't react to Joycon input. The only way out is to force quit the game with the home button. If you mess up preferences, just delete /switch/Hurrican/hurrican.cfg

The tutorial level (if you select "Start Tutorial" instead of "Start New Game") currently crashes just after loading.
