Basically, the DirectX 9 API was replaced by Direct 3D 11 and a few minor bugs was fixed. We played a lot with this version on Windows 10 so I believe it’s free of bugs.

Added benefit of the new API is that you don’t have to download a DirectX runtime from Microsoft anymore. It should be working immediately without any additional download, at least on Windows 10.

The menu is as plain as in the original Amiga (or PC) version. This is intentional, it’s like playing in an emulator. However, I hope I will release a more user friendly advanced version soon.
