Based on disassembly of the PC DOS version, this port runs on PC, Mac and Linux and features many enhancements such as quick saving and the ability to mod the game including level design.

Has anyone tried this?

I tried this some time ago. It's basically the same game, just with some QoL improvement like widescreen support, and also dynamic lighting which is cool.

I've been playing this on Vita and Switch for some while now. There's probably a port of this for anything, at this point. I think there even was a JS version that runs in web browser.
