Err, no: you say "The game presents a VGA option to play with". That's NOT an option, it's the way this game is, hence the name Joust VGA. This remake has nothing to do with "Atari's 1983 attempt which is actually pretty solid"...

So, what I'm saying is: you uploaded Joust VGA, reviewed it as if it was the 1983 original PC port then complained about it's lousy controls (which are true for the remake Joust VGA, but not for the 1983 Atari solid port called Joust). See the confusion you're creating?
