This one has some very nice effects with great use of the C64 palette. The spiral scroller with cylindrical core is awesome.

Nice, the Sihouette Mirage retranslation has finally hit V1.0.
Total english do-over for the Sega Saturn version. Previously, there was a port of the Working Designs PSX translation to the Saturn, which was playable but they changed *SO MUCH*.

Local legend TheJesusFish has released a test #MiSTerFPGA build (available on Discord) that allows you to take full advantage of Nvidia Pulsar to get CRT-like motion clarity.
Likely won't be merged into main due to it only working with a few very expensive displays on the market
