Hack description

This hack aims to construct the most difficult Punch-Out!! experience possible. Each fighter has been reworked, and given a new moveset to create a unique and challenging experience for each fight. Every fighter is now able to knock Little Mac down with one punch, and sustain less damage from Mac's punches. This time, no punches have been pulled in terms of difficulty. Each fighter (Including Mac) has also been given a new palette inspired by their Title Defense appearences from Punch-Out!! for the Wii. The arena colors are also partly inspired by the World Circuit from Punch-Out!! for the Wii. Every passkey has also been altered to prevent players from skipping large portions of the game as well.

With all of these changes, there is a total of 14+ challenging fights to win. There might even be some secret fights too.

Difficult? YES!	hdofu	2021-10-26	Version 1.1
I don't know how hard this game gets, but I wasn't even able to knock out Glass Joe, let alone beat him! He takes less damage than normal... and for the kicker... his punches KO you in one hit! Outside of Mike Tyson, no one in the original game can pull that off. If Glass Joe is the easiest fighter in this, I'd be terrified to see what Van Kaiser is like.
