Yeah, that trailer animation looks very suspiciously sloppy. If they really didn't use gen AI for the actual game, the trailer is doing it a huge disservice IMO.

Long ago I knew of a site/forum where people made fan remakes of old games, one of them was Jet Set Willy (Manic Miner's sequel). Their version had multiplayer.
