Hurrican port for Switch

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.

Thanks

Thanks to Poke53280 team for making such a great game, releasing the source, and making it freeware.

Thanks to the other developers such as DKS and Pickle for extending the Hurrican source and adding SDL/OpenGL-ES support and more.

Thanks to ScHlAuChi for telling me about this.

Thanks to devkitPro for making Switch homebrew possible.

Thanks to DeltaV on Nintenbrew Discord for finding the joystick array overflow bug.

Thanks to my Patreon supporters: Jesse Harlin, Mored4u, RadicalR.

Installation

  • Download (see assets below), and unzip Hurrican_switch.zip and copy the contents over to the /switch/ folder on your sd card, so that you have a folder /switch/Hurrican with many folders and files inside.

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

Building

git clone https://github.com/rsn8887/hurrican
cd hurrican/Hurrican/src
make clean
make Hurrican_switch.zip -j12

the zip file is created in the Hurrican folder, not in src.
