I had a play today and the standout changes are:

  • it offers a choice between remixed audio or a recording from the devices used to author the original midi tracks (Probably some Roland device). The menus offering this choice included a preview that sounded pretty good so I picked the remix.
  • it offers a choice between 1x, 2x, etc, or maximum scaling over or original resolution. For lots of retro games I find 2x to be the best balance as it allows a small visual improvement for the 3d elements without adding too much clash between any fixed 2d sprites. Despite my usual preferences I found this worked pretty well at maximum so I left it there.
