    I’ve been playing it on a PC emulator recently and it’s still really fun. The controls take a bit getting used to, but it’s great other than that. If you never got a chance to get your turn growing up, I highly recommend checking it out.

      Even better than an emulator is Ship of Harkinian, a full source port to modern PC hardware. It has tons of graphical and QOL improvements, built in randomizer, modern controls if you want.

      And to the people that like to say “MM iS beTTeR”, they just released 2 Ship 2 Harkinian.

        That’s actually what I’m playing it on! Sorry, I’m a nerd, but not enough of a nerd to distinguish between an emulator and a port. But yeah, the QoL stuff is nice. For example, you can have it respawn you where you left off rather than back at the starting area every time you continue your game.

        I haven’t seen anything for modern controls though. I might have to poke around.

        Edit: This video explains some of the good settings to try out. Free camera is mentioned near the very end. https://youtu.be/IPFb5iCMaBY
