Turtles Fighters is now out!
Greetings to all lovers of retro and classics!
I am happy to announce that just a couple of days ago, a brand new game, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Fighters, saw the light of day. This fan-made fighting game about the legendary Ninja Turtles is now available for download! An unexpected but very pleasant gift for all retro gaming fans, especially for those who own TS Conf and Sprinter spectrum clones. And for those who don’t have retro hardware, there is also a Windows version with a built-in emulator.
About the Game
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Fighters is a 1-vs-1 fighting game created from scratch by the talented developer Alexander Tmk deMarche and the ZX-FANS-TEAM. The game engine is completely original and has its own features. The character graphics are inspired by the classic SNES version of the game, while the other elements are drawn from scratch or redrawn based on images found online. Special attention should be paid to the atmosphere and detailed drawing of the characters and locations, which are incredibly dynamic and create the effect of a complete three-dimensional immersion. And each character has 120 different poses, isn’t that cool?
The game was created so that you can spend time with friends, arranging a real tournament, and playing for the winner’s golden cup! There are four playable characters to choose from: Leo, Don, Mike, and Raph. Each of them has its own unique features and super moves. You have to choose which of the heroes will become your favorite to defeat all rivals.
Well, if you’re spending the evening alone, no problem, the game has a built-in bot that will easily keep you company, and it won’t be that easy to beat it!
Controls and Super Moves
The game controls are designed for a 6-button joystick, supporting Sega and 8bit-do standards. Each hero has close and long-range attacks, and when you are close, the set of attacks changes slightly. Throws are performed by pressing back + X or Y when you are close to the opponent. And to dodge an attack, you can do a back somersault by pressing back, back. In this mode, you are invincible.
Here is a list of super moves for each character, which can also be viewed in pause mode:
LEO:
- down, back, hand — energy boomerang
- back, down, forward, hand — sword dance
- back, forward, hand — somersault with swords
DON:
- down, back, hand — earth spike
- back, down, forward, hand — Bo staff
- down, forward, foot — head spin
MIKE:
- down, back, foot — dragon’s breath

- down, down, hand — nunchaku power
RAPH:

I’m sure the game will find many fans among Spectrum users, and even though there is no version for ZX Spectrum Next yet, you can write if you would be interested in having such a version.
Download, share your impressions, and support the developers with a kind word and a ringing coin. The price starts from 0 EUR, so this is a great reason to spend an evening with friends playing your favorite game!
