Not recommended Sep 1, 2026

this is the "remake" version that's essentially inferior to the much more nostalgic and overall better 0.6.3 version that's not available on steam. the biggest issue i have with this version is the soundtrack since they turned the really banger 8 bit soundfont into some generic platformer music. it's still a really good game but i'd much recommend you play the 0.6.3 version if you can.
