Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Hyperstone Heist, known in Europe as Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles: The Hyperstone Heist and in Japan as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Return of the Shredder (Ｔ.Ｍ.Ｎ.Ｔ. リターン オブ ザ シュレッダー) is a Sega Mega Drive beat-'em-up game developed and published by Konami. An expanded and rearranged port of the developer's July 1992 Nintendo Super Famicom game Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time (with additional elements taken from both the 1989 arcade game Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and the 1991 Nintendo Family Computer game Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Manhattan Project), it was first released in Japan and the United States in December 1992, and is the first game in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise to appear on a Sega console.[10]

Gameplay

While the arcade and SNES version follows a time travel theme, Hyperstone Heist follows an original storyline written for this port. Shredder uses an alien weapon from Dimension X to shrink the Manhattan island and Turtles attempt to bring the city to its original size.

The gameplay is heavily based on the gameplay of Turtles in Time, an arcade and Super NES game. There is an attack button and jump button. Run is also assigned to a button whereas it was done with a double tap of the dpad or when walking a certain distance. Pushing attack and jump together launches a desperation attack that consumes health, similar to other games in the genres such as Streets of Rage 2. Default controls are: A attack, B jump and C dash. The player can still slam enemies back and forth on the ground but can no longer throw them towards the screen. Back attacks can be disabled in the options menu. Various objects around the level can sometimes be hit and knocked into enemies and some will even explode, damaging nearby enemies. Some levels feature traps such as holes or planks which hit the player when stepped on.

Unlike the original Arcade and SNES version, whose art style is closer to the 80s cartoon series, Mega Drive version's art style is closer to the original comic book series by Eastman and Laird. (No pupils, overblown muscles etc.)

Game has fewer levels and bosses than the arcade version but the levels are longer with multiple locations.

Stages

  • New York City: Features a boss fight with Leatherhead.
  • The Mysterious Ghost Ship: Features a boss fight with Rocksteady. (no Bebop though)
  • Shredder's Hideout: Features a boss fight with Tatsu from the first two TMNT movies. (His only video game appearance besides the movies)
  • The Gauntlet: Features a boss rush with all three previous bosses and human Baxter Stockman. (Stockman's sprites are recycled from the first game, unlike the arcade version which has his fly form)
  • Technodrome, The Final Shellshock!: Features a boss fight with Krang's Android and Super Shredder.

Tips and tricks

  • The respawning standard enemies during boss fights can be used to collect infinite score.
