Nintendo 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.
Installation
Everything needed to play is already included in the archive.
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.
User guide
The object is to navigate a space soldier through nine challenging levels, blowing away all manner of aggressive robots, attacking plants and avoiding dangerous traps along the way.
Note: Don't try to remap buttons in the controls menu, it asks for a button press, but doesn't react to Joy-Con 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.
Controls
Left Stick/D-Pad - Walk, Duck, Aim (hold up/down to look)
Y - Shoot
B - Jump
X - Hold for lightning beam (control angle with Joystick or D-Pad Left/Right)
A - Powerline
R - Grenade
L - Cycle weapon type
ZR - Smart bomb
Screenshots

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