Key points
- Updated version of Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee which includes partially updated assets from the console HD release, numerous bug fixes, and "proper" controller support[1]
- Game time and movement speed is significantly faster than the original Xbox version, which may be an issue for returning players and can lead to script failures, necessitating a reload and lost progress.[citation needed]
- Several sounds from the original version have been replaced with newer versions of mismatched audio quality.[citation needed]
- Music playback is degraded and plays at the wrong speed. Incidental music also no longer plays correctly, likely due to the increased framerate.[citation needed]
