- 7th Boss name "Boots", was reverted back to "Blood".
- PAL version has "X earned Y points" at Stage Clear, to match the World version.

COLOR RESTORATION:
- Capcom logo is updated to the modern one.
- Almost everything was recolored to match the Arcade release.

version 1.2 update:

- Hack credits updated when possible: console release to 2021, celebrating the 30th Anniversary of Captain Commando.

SPRITE RESTORATION:
- Thanks to user Blade133bo, the enemies "Carol" and "Brenda" have their original arcade outfits.

COLOR TWEAKS:
- Player Select had its yellow colors restored.
- Portraits were retouched to be more arcade like.

That's the good stuff! The original snes version looks very dull compared to this. Glad to see someone brought some color to this.
