Jurassic Park 2 for SNES Gets a Stunning Overhaul After 30 Years
More than three decades after its original release, Jurassic Park 2 for the SNES has been given a long-overdue upgrade, thanks to the dedicated efforts of BillyTime!Games. This fan-driven project enhances the classic title with refined visuals, smoother gameplay, and quality-of-life improvements, breathing new life into an often-overlooked sequel.

Originally developed by Ocean Software, Jurassic Park 2: The Chaos Continues launched in the mid-'90s, aiming to build on the success of its predecessor. However, while the game had an ambitious mix of side-scrolling action and top-down exploration, it suffered from clunky mechanics and frustrating difficulty spikes.

The overhaul introduces several key improvements, including infinite continues, More time in some timed missions, health packs giving full health and a few more adjustments.
Well, here it is. Its still a hard game but I feel some of the changes improved it somewhat. May revisit this in the future. Jurassic Park II - The Chaos Continues Redux is LIVE! pic.twitter.com/GF3ea46sI3
