A new run-and-gun adventure is taking shape. Project Hura Gun is being developed specifically for the Commodore 64 Ultimate and Gideon’s Ultimate 64, with the ambition of becoming the first game created expressly for these machines.
Inspired by Turrican, Draconus, Metroid, Hawkeye, and other retro classics, the game combines intense shooting action with exploration across vast worlds. Expect powerful weapons, deadly monsters, massive bosses, and secrets waiting to be discovered.
The concept, game design, code, and graphics are the work of Tomasz “Carrion” Mielnik, with music by Magnar Harestad. Both creators draw on their demoscene experience to push the hardware and bring a distinctive visual and musical identity to the game.
Handcrafted pixel art, distinct colour palettes for each world, and megabytes of animation bring the adventure to life. Eight channels of digitized music accompany the action, while REU memory supports the game’s ambitious scope.
Created with a passion for classic games, Project Hura Gun puts human artistry at its heart: handcrafted visuals, music by real musicians, and no AI-generated filler.
The first trailer premieres on YouTube on November 11, 2026. Further updates, gameplay footage, and details will follow periodically over the coming weeks and months.
Project Hura Gun is planned for release in 2027. Follow the project and subscribe to the YouTube channel—the adventure is just beginning.
