Overall I am satisfied with this run. There is a lot to improve but taking account all the difficulties the time is great.
The Sega Saturn version of this game is barely playable on emulator.
I tried using RetroArch, SSF, Yaba Sanshiro 2, Yabause, Bizhawk and Kronos but they all had the same issues. The emulator I settled on using was Kronos v2.5.0.
Certain levels like 1-4, 2-3 and 3-3 have a small chance of crashing, while levels 3-2 and 3-B1 have an almost 100% chance of crashing unless you play them a certain way. To solve this issue I made save states at the beginning of each level which did cost me about 8 seconds for each save.
Compared to the PC version this one has insane input delay and plays at 30 FPS (PAL version at 24 FPS). I lost about 20+ minutes due to crashes and mistakes.
