Remastered soundtrack, character art/designs and x100 much better graphics are done in such a way, that's the traditional gameplay experience is not ruined.

I loved the classic art style for the characters (which I used) and the classic music (which I also used—it’s an amazing soundtrack), but I didn’t like the classic map art, as it wasn’t from the Genesis version of the game and so I didn’t care for it.
