One of the best and somewhat obscure platformer for the Amiga has been remade for pc and is free to download.

I was hoping this was about the jean-claude van damme movie. That was one of my favorites.

Why would you remake awesome ?

I never got to play this one, sadly. I also want to play more than the demo of First Samurai (and the sequel) and I really would like to play Odyssey (I tried it once but I couldn't figure out the start, which island to choose - the demo left me with a lasting impression that it was an excellent idea with a decent execution).

Usually you just break the awesome though and end up with stupid.

That was far and away the highlight of my day.

When i read the thread title, the first thing that came to mind was: "why would anyone remake it? Isn't it cheaply available on GoG?"

Turns out this is awesomer.

Does GoG have Amiga games?

Anyway, as I have not played the original, I want to ask...
How faithful is this remake? The gameplay feels the same? Same level design? Is it worth playing the original before (or after) trying this remake?

Arion, maybe you can answer that?
