The all-time classic Turrican II is certainly remembered for more than its music, but the music is certainly what is best remembered for. The original composer of the game's awesome soundtrack Chris Huelsbeck is looking to bring a limited Collector's Edition Box Set featuring new live orchestra recordings of music from the game. Huelsbeck is looking for support on Kickstarter, where he has already reached $34,000 of his ambitious $75,000 goal.

Here is how Huelsbeck describes the project:

"2016 is a very special year for me. Not only is it 30 years since I began my professional career as a video game composer, but it also marks the 25th anniversary of legendary platform game Turrican II. As one of my most popular soundtracks ever, I wanted to create something very special to celebrate these anniversaries, and so Turrican II - The Orchestral Album was conceived!"
