Yeah, it's a somewhat bizarre audio-visual upgrade by Naxat Soft--not Technos themselves--with semi-animated cutscenes, larger, completely redone graphics in a less super-def0rmed style, a Red Book audio soundtrack which starts real strong but whose later tracks are more of a mixed bag, and moves and AI that emphasize the reanimated, somewhat awkward jump kicks and other ranged attacks over closer fighting. Oh and replaced the steel pipe hand weapons with shovels for some reason. : P

Follow Ups:

it also has really interesting/bizarre music. I'm a big fan of the soundtrack, as it's very scream-heavy.

Yeah I don't think I had realized how weird it gets because I hadn't got very far in the game before--the later tracks go in unexpected directions. ; ) Oh also they definitely ripped off SNK's Wolfgang Krauser sprite from Fatal Fury 2 from the previous year for their redesign of one of Technos' larger characters in the game. ; D (spoilery image inside)
