Hack description

There are two patches.
One is for Castlevania: Akatsuki no Minuet(Japan), the other is for Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow(USA). Except language, the two versions are same.

This hack did many things. First, this hack changed the configuration of monsters for all rooms, just like the images showed! The number of monsters is increased. Second, this hack changed the route of game. Third, this hack changed all weapons, just like the images showed also. Not only graphics but also properties. Of course, this hack changed many graphics of souls by the way. Finally, this hack increased the difficulty of the game by fixed some numerical value.

Can't wait to get back to itBlazingFalcon2017-01-07Version 1.1

Maaaan oh man. I foolishly thought I could grind a bunch of zombies with that shiny new "knife" before making it to the first save room. After being proved horribly wrong, I made my second mistake, trying to make a break for the first save room instead of going back and healing. What actually happened was that I got pummeled by a bat(embarrassing) and then finished off by a merman in the middle of getting the gravekeeper soul. I love this hack already. Also, loved the sprite edits for the knife and casual clothing in the equipment menu. It was a nice little touch.
