I have posted this several times in various Amiga twitch chats to spread the word in recent months because I also think this is lovely.

It's nice. But after 5 minutes it was enough for me.

Played the DOS version of the game more? That one's half the length of this.

Only the DOS version, actually (well, and the most recent Windows re-release). I tried to play it on the A500 mini but no luck so far, I can't seem to get the mouse to function.

But it's more that the metal version starts to kind of drone on. It doesn't tonally fit with the extremely laid back game and thus also not the tune. An unplugged version of this tune would probably mesh better with me.

I may be a bit deaf due to age and listening to loud music by now, but it's the almost exact length, tone and tempo version of the original tune. The instruments changed, yes, for the better, those low quality samples were... old.

well, technically it's not a mod (iirc) and the tune from Reunion might be longer. Or that super long demo.
