Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II - The Arcade Game

Screenshots1 / 2

A green-skinned turtle character stands on a blue platform in the center of the screen, facing right. The top of the screen displays the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II logo in orange and yellow, with a life counter and score panel in white text on the left. The background shows a street scene with white brick buildings and green doors. Below the character, an orange and red flame effect creates a hazard barrier. The sprite uses pixel art typical of NES-era side-scrolling beat-em-ups, with limited animation frames and a bright, constrained color palette.
