They intentionally removed this feature years ago. It was possible to reenable via a dconf setting for a while but I believe that was also eventually removed.
So annoying.

I’ve played both, although it’s been a while since I played it now.

The controls are much better.

The graphics are only mildly improved. The character models are improved but they kept the same pre-rendered backgrounds of the original game, which were all made for old 4:3 screens. So on a widescreen monitor you can either have it stretched or with borders on the left and right.

I think everything else such as the audio is the same.

My partner ran into a weird bug and couldn’t progress further, but Doublefine sent me some save game files to work around the issue. I think those issues have since been fixed.

Still a great game!
