Legendary composer Chris Hülsbeck contributes exclusive new studio versions of the iconic soundtrack that has never been released before. The warmth and charm of a CRT on modern screens! Players can experience Apidya’ Special in true widescreen with new parallax effects or switch to the original home computer 4:3 mode that looks, plays, and sounds exactly like 1992. Optional CRT effects with simulated shadow mask, scan lines, and phosphor bloom recreate the classic display feel. Authentic Remake – Completely rebuilt from scratch; no emulation. Two Visual Modes – Seamlessly switch between HD widescreen or original home computer 4:3 presentation. Exclusive Chris Hülsbeck OST – New studio versions of the iconic soundtrack Retro Visual Effects – Optional CRT shaders, bloom, and authentic scanline simulation.
