What you see is what you get. My only real complaint is the buttons set for controller are ridiculous and you cannot rebind them.

This is not a bad game, but it has a lot of flaws and I don't recommend it at it's current price. I actually enjoyed it as a nice retro throwback to old school Genesis games.
