What players say
Very fun retro game. The addition of the "rewind" mechanic in this game is awesome, and made it so much less frustrating to play than the original, which I didn't actually finish, with the wonky jumping physics.

Legendary classic from my childhood given new life on Steam packed with a bunch of useful new features! This is a wonderful little platformer with all sorts of awesome stuff going on. I used to boot this up on an emulator from time to time but now I don't have to. <3
this port has a terrible sound bug that hasnt been fixed and probably won't at this point. nearly everytime you enter a new zone a weird continuous note will play along the music, sometimes its a high pitched one that makes playing the game without fully muting it or disabling sound impossible. i really cant reccommend it until they fix this specific bug
