It includes a faithful port of the X68000 version, as well as a new “Arrange Mode” with renewed graphics and characters, widescreen support, newly recorded voice-overs by new actors, and background music by notable games industry composers. There is also a “Score Attack Mode” where users can play timed runs (two or five minutes) and upload their scores online.
