About this port

C++ rewrite that merges the Sega Model 2 Revision A arcade original with the 1998 PC port, choosing the better version system by system and allowing either set of models and textures. Version 1.1.0 plays every chapter from start to finish. Requires your own MAME hotd ROM set (Revision A) and your own installed 1998 PC version; a setup script builds the playable executable. The Windows x64 package is the current release; Linux and macOS builds are documented. No game data is included.

Requires original game files
