I think the colors are more the problem.

The music kinda kicks…but not like the CD originals. I can’t give a fuck for whatever the menu music sounds like.

You can fall off a coach in real life, too.
I'm not saying it sucks comrade, I just never seen anyone die in that sequence like that. I thought the game blocked you off from jumping over the horses.

Anyway, it's clear it's just a quick demo to generate buzz, so I wouldn't expect anything beyond that even though it's doable, it seems like the focus is on the X68k port. This is a nice way to get patreon bucks now that I think about it, do a quick demo with hastily converted graphics and some code you already have, raise funds for your other shit.

The PCE version is one of those games that has way more going on than it seems at first glance. There are a huge number of frames of animation for very subtle things. The PCE colors are also very well used...good luck on this one, Sega fans. Mega CD makes slightly more sense.

The X68k one I'm way more into.

Has there even been an update?

Edit: Maybe it was meant to be a demo
