Why are some of the sounds wrong?

[Savok]

The sound those trip sensors make is permanently burned into my mind yet looking at videos that's no longer the case. Why? Some of the other sounds don't seem to be entirely right either, but others are spot on.

This isn't a case of the modern sound either, this is the "8-bit" (???) sounds.

Check videos of different platform versions, might depend on that. For example could differ on one specific console due to some tech restrictions.

I checked those, it's not the Amiga and not the SNES version. Nor is it the old DOS version. The music is the Mega Drive/Genesis but some of the sounds don't seem to be. It's very off-putting.

Hmmn everything has sounded exactly as i remember so far. Though i'm currently only in the second level i admit. Originally i played this on Amiga, seems exactly the same here on Steam honestly except of course for the modern mode and rewind options.

Nah, when you start a new game the first sound you hear in the forest is the basically iconic beep from the sensor ... 8bit mode butchered that beyond recognition. Also the gun sounds strange, too.
No idea from what port they got those effects and I played most of them...

IMO the Amiga version has the best sounds. It is a shame they did not go with those.

I preferred the SNES sounds/music

The original is still the best. The Sega Genesis version is the best version and the original. It wasn't developed until later for other systems so for me those are the original sounds. The SNES version music sounded too synth like but I haven't heard the Amiga music yet.

That is why it was advertised as the CD in a cart game because the system it was developed on first was the Sega Genesis that had the Sega CD, this game's original advertisement was built to reflect this. Even though it was ported to the Sega CD that version was merely ok. The Genesis version was more impressive because of the system's low attributes.

why people even buiy this game get it free better original

It was actually developed mostly on the Amiga: animations etc. as Paul himself tells in this interview https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d19uIYbE2bE
Amiga version has best music+sounds. Unfortunately color palette was reduced though.
