Story:
Two years ago, the government initiated a secret operation codenamed "The Techno Project", and dispatched a team of scientists to a facility known as the Federal Antarctic Technological Base Underground That's Top Secret (or "FATBUTTS", for short). Their mission: To scientifically engineer a bionic "supersoldier" capable of protecting mankind from evil.

As a result of The Techno Project, two supersoldiers were created: a robot named Techno Alpha, and a cyborg named Techno Beta.

Unfortunately, the two "brothers" never saw eye-to-eye, and eventually went their seperate ways. Techno Alpha lived the secluded life of a loner, while Techno Beta went on to become a hero.

Since then, things have been peaceful. But a new villain has suddenly surfaced, and the two bionic supersoldiers will soon cross paths again on their individual missions to stop the evil professor Eugene Poolle from carrying out his plan of world domination, "The Gamma Project"...

Trailer: Coming Soon!

Info:
This is a 100% original game I've been working on for several months. I designed all the characters, wrote all the music, made every last sprite, animation, tile, and background, made all the sound effects, voiced all the characters, designed every level, and of course, programmed the engine entirely by myself. When you first play the game it may not seem as though I've accomplished very much after all the time I've spent, but once you stop and realize how long it takes to do everything I've done, you'll understand.

I've put a lot of blood, sweat, and tears into this game, in an effort to make it as smooth, bug-free, and fun as possible. I hope you enjoy it!

Extra Information:
--The game and help file are compressed together in a 4.48 MB .zip file, so you will need a decompression program like WinZIP to extract the game. You may be able to play the game while it is still in the .zip file, but this is not recommended, since you won't be able to save or load your progress properly.
--This game makes heavy use of the "Westminster" font. In order for some in-game text to display as it was intended, you may need to download and install the Westminster font via this link: http://willhostforfood.com/users/T/TechnoSuperguy/WESTM.TTF

Known Bugs:
--Upon its defeat, the spring-like snake enemy's death animation occasionally loops, causing it to look pretty silly. This is a very minor bug, though, so I haven't spent much time trying to fix it yet.
--During the Rino boss battle, Rino's attacks will sometimes be doubled -- for instance, he will inexplicably shoot 4 lasers instead or 2, or launch 8 spikes instead of 4. I'm still working to find the cause of this problem, but it should be fixed by the time I release the next demo.

Notes:
Techno: TGP has huge levels, a lot of large graphics, and detailed special effects, so gameplay may be laggy on computers with inadequate RAM or Video/Graphics Memory. If you are experiencing lag, you can try changing certain settings to improve gameplay speed.
--By default, the Nesteke Forest level uses two layers of scrolling backgrounds, to give a nice effect of depth to the forest. Unfortunately, this can cause the level to lag somewhat on certain computers. To fix the problem, go to the Title Screen, then the Options menu. Highlight the "Background Quality" option, and press Z to cycle through alternate settings. "Double-Layered Background" is the default setting, which utilizes two seperate scrolling backgrounds for the level. "Single-Layer Background" utilizes only one scrolling background for the level, which helps improve gameplay speed. If all else fails, use the "No Background" setting, which turns off the background altogether. NOTE: These settings only affect the Nesteke Forest level.
--Though the special effects in this game look cool, they can cause some slowdown in the game. If you notice lag whenever special effects are utilized, you can go to the Title Screen, then the Options menu. Highlight the "Effects" option, and press Z to turn the special effects On or Off. Turning off the effects will make things a bit less eye-appealing, but it may help improve gameplay speed. NOTE: After turning off the effects, you may need to turn off the game and restart it in order for the changes to take full effect.
--If nothing else is helping to improve gameplay speed, you can manually resize the game window to a smaller size. I've found that this sometimes helps reduce lag.
