Limited Run Games really phoned in this re-release. There are no English instructions, so the games mechanics are just guesswork unless you google the controls. Save states and rewind are implemented, but very poorly. You have to act fast if you want to actually utilize them. This is all a shame, because the original game's sprite work is beautiful even today. The colorization is a little oversaturated, but not awful. I'd always heard good things about the original Trip World, maybe I'll pick this back up if I ever meet someone who can clearly explain how to accomplish specific goals the game sets for the player but does not explain.
