The site is very good. DRM free, and the emulation is great for older titles.

Oh boy oh boy, it's this thing! When I was a kid I used to fly interstate to see my auntie, and of course when you're a kid travelling alone, in between flights you get put in the kids' room. One of these rooms had this game, and I was enthralled.

Much later I downloaded a ROM of the game to play via emulator and it was horrifyingly difficult.
I really can't say that I was much better at it as an adult than I was as a child
You need to be so precise, there's like, no room for error in this game at all.

I went ahead and bought it, but I am having horrible difficulty just setting up the controls. From what I can tell, the game is a DOSBox version of the Windows 95 release of the game. Was rather bummed when I saw that the "sound test" menu from the SNES version was missing - you can listen to all the music there, and this menu appears to be missing.

I'll give it a more proper go over the weekend, and am rather excited to be able to play it.

How playable is this via keyboard alone? I might buy it if a controller isn't a huge necessity. I̶'̶l̶l̶ ̶p̶r̶o̶b̶a̶b̶l̶y̶ ̶g̶e̶t̶ ̶m̶y̶ ̶b̶u̶t̶t̶ ̶h̶a̶n̶d̶e̶d̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶m̶e̶ ̶b̶y̶ ̶t̶h̶a̶t̶ ̶o̶s̶t̶r̶i̶c̶h̶ ̶e̶i̶t̶h̶e̶r̶ ̶w̶a̶y̶,̶ ̶b̶u̶t̶ ̶s̶t̶i̶l̶l̶.
