Since the game itself runs inside a custom designed virtual machine, are not all versions "ports"?
The amazing thing is that he targeted multiple platforms right from the get-go in a particularly elegant way and didn't let that turn into a multi-year yak-shaving "game platform" exercise.

How can you be sure this was the original design if you do not check the Amiga sources ? As far as I know he did not develop all the other ports by himself - and I distinctly remember that the Megadrive and SNES ports took a LONG time to appear.
