Not the Flashback I know from Amiga.
This may be a little picky, but the sound I got used to, also from many emulator playthroughs, is absolutely different. This is sadly a NO for me.
Besides the catchy intro soundtrack, the main screen also had some awesome soundtrack, which is also not as immense in this version as in the Amiga version. The main screen also looks different and does not show the impressive wide opened eyes, as I remember it.
One more thing: In-game language cannot be set. Not even by Steam. The game seems to catch OS language, which is quite annoying when you got used to the English version but live in a non-English country.
Other than that, in-game optics seem to look original when you switch to classic mode.

love that they modernized it to be compatible with modern hardware, great bit of nostalgia here and i recomend this, i originally played this back in the amiga days, however my 1 big gripe is the sound effects are absolutely BAD... and say for example the Reactor level, just some poor sounding background explosion and NO alarm?? that stuff goes a long way to set the mood and the urgency of the game.... how hard is it to hire a sound guy to do something for a game this simple? even if just to do it from scratch?
