Loving the Directors Cut version, so here's a little feedback.
With the new level select, choosing where you want to go, not being able to pause and quit feels unnecessary.
It's a simple change yet an effective one, which I feel will help change the pace of being able to jump in and out of levels (or just trying to get out of a stage you didn't mean to pick (or selecting time attack on accident while just trying to replay the level.))
