Hack description

Before you - a facilitating hack of the most pitiless game on Famicom."Makaimura Arcade Conversion - Fair Play" (original hack made by 2CH) have a row of changes, notedly facilitating passing of the game:

* Now you can continue the game as you please. Just press "Start" on the title screen after game over.
* A select weapon code was inculcated (button "Select", press more smooth to propose a necessary weapon). Select weapon code is taken from @Lomax hack.

* Time of after-hit twinkling is increased.
* The amount of shots is decreased for all large and smart enemies

* All levels are improved, added the forks.
* A torch and cross (distance of flight) are improved.

* The number of shots is increased for the last boss ... 'cause he very easy.

* Well, and finally - now you get the correct ending at the first passing. Indeed, if you will begin a game repeatedly, you will be moved to the level with a false boss, whereupon will return on beginning of game.

Hints: Large flying demons is easily to avoid, if you running to the stair and getting down on her downward. A fire-spitting dragon can be killed not only by torch, but also by axe (and then and by a dagger - at 6 level he in general easily falls down a dagger). A final boss can be killed not only by a cross, but also by torch. Only at last level you must take a cross, or to propose him as a weapon and "pour out" one life.

P. S.: Enjoy!

My blood boiled WAY more than enough with these games growing up, so anything reasonably easier is welcome. Thanks!

I Really liked the Makaimura Arcade Conversion Hack, except for one thing, they removed the continues.

This version has put continues back, and tweak the game to be much fairer. It still retain some things from the MAC hack, like faster enemies that spawn more frequently.

However I feel it castrate the difficulty, by adding branching paths to avoid dangers, the ability to choose weapon for the right situation and decreased the hits on certain enemies like Red Arrameers and bosses.

I recommend this version to beginners of the game, but personally I will stick with MAC hack, if only they had implemented some continues at least.
