Good thing I'm Australian. I'm sorry but this is literally the first time I've requested a refund on GOG. The game has odd animations, feels wrong, feels janky, ignores v-sync options (it's own I might add), seems to require ALOT of GPU power for what it's doing, feels broken, the NPC faces look weird and quite frankly the original feels like it has alot more character. Plus the original feels alot smoother. I can't recommend this and I played the original and still own the original on GOG.com. I'd recommend the original even with the issues getting it running on a modern PC over this one. Like the review title says I uninstalled it and have requested a refund. Sad as I was looking forward to this but I don't think a day one patch could fix it. It requires rebuilding from the ground up. At least it's not Star Citizen.
As it says above, it's Shash TV meets Aliens and it's bloody awesome. Great pixel art, great gameplay, sounds and music fits well, couch coop, great all round. Also for those with actual Megadrives, Neo Geo's and emulators, you can order actual working CARTRIDGES of this game for those systems from Bitmap Bureau's website. Worth it if you want it on the shelf.
Loved the game when it came out on pretty much all the different platforms (except SNES, it just doesn't seem right). My first experience was playing on my cousin's Amiga version and I've loved it ever since. Think a 90's sci-fi Prince of Persia type game and your very close. This game is well made, well thought out, still fun after all these years, and THIS is a good version of it. Totally better than the 'remake' that was released a few years ago that just lacked the spirit of the original. THIS captures that magic again. The ambient noise, the music that pipes in then goes away, the choice of shirts (nice touch), those cool 'polygon' like cutscenes that evoke Another World (another game Delphine were famous for in the 90's and this game spiritual predecessor) its all here folks. Saw this on sale on PS4 in a collector's edition, ordered a copy on Ebay, saw this version on here, bought this version and got the physical copy still wrapped up on the shelf ;). Just turn off those filters. I like the new sounds but I do like my pixels unfiltered lol. But I do appreciate the option. Recommended for young and old.
