ROM Information
No-Intro Name: Comix Zone (USA)Hack description
It's been 26 long years since sketch turner got caught up in his own comic, being forced to face powerful creatures, defiant puzzles and solid rocks... yes, solid rocks and barrels and other adamantium objects that deprive sketch the right to live with its imposing hardness!!!, but now, thanks to its strict training and diet based on dairy products, Sketch Turner (better known now as "The Calcium Kid"), has developed large and strong bones capable of shattering any obstacle that stands between him and the final page, without receiving a single scratch. Likewise, the excessive consumption of dairy products has caused the metabolism of Sketch to take advantage of 100% the nutrients of a refreshing glass of milk, thus fully healed after each drink. Now that you've grown big and strong like Melvin the elephant, do you think you can defeat Mordus and his filthy henchmen and return to the real world leaving behind an incredible life of super hero and return to be a hungry loser comix artist?Screenshots

| A necessity to play the game | Neon_Cone | 2022-05-30 | Version 1.0 |
The two gameplay changes, the health restoration increase and not taking damage from attacking, are great. They change the game from a frustrating slog, to something resembling a fun experience. The dialog changes on the other hand are unnecessary, and make the already goofy story a little too silly. HOWEVER, I found the changes to be a blessing in disguise, since it's possible to open the patch as a text file and manually change the dialog. It can either be restored back to what it was OR changed to anything. The playable character's name was one of the things changed, so this patch will allow you to name them whatever you want. Modifying the patch is pretty easy too, since there's not much to it. | |||
| This is just a couple Game Genie codes applied with GGGuy.exe and awful script changes | user8844 | 2019-12-21 | Version 1.0 |
Like other Vikfield "hacks", this is just a couple of Game Genie codes that have been applied to the ROM using GGGuy.exe. Why Ice Tea was made to look like Milk for this patch, I have no idea. The script changes are unnecessary and not amusing, they were achieved by opening up the ROM in a hex editor and changing each letter from random phrases in the game, so in the original game a line of text would be, "ROADKILL, BUDDY!" but in this it's, "CHOCOMILK BUDDY!" and lines like, "NICE KNOWING YOU, SKETCH TURNER!" become, "NICE KNOWING YOU, CALCIUM KID!!!" complete with the redundant exclamation marks to fill the space. There are several needless edits to the script and credits, they can be pasted over with the text from the original ROM, but why bother when it's quick and easy to add your own choice of cheats to the game. The codes that were applied can be found on gamegenie.com AJDV-4A4L No damage from attacking solid objects 963B-4JAC Ice Tea fully heals player You're far better off just using GGGuy - Kyle's Game Genie Guy! https://www.romhacking.net/utilities/1054/ - to apply whichever Game Genie codes you like than bothering with this patch.

| helpful Quality of Life hack, but why the joke? | vonseux | 2019-10-13 | Version 1.0 |
This hack is a dream come true for those (almost everyone) who struggles with this game, the game is infamous for being too hard, but it actually have really solid gameplay, the only problem is how scarce is the health: this hack fixes that! I just hope that the hacker didnt came up with this story of "calcium kid", totally unnecessary gag. | |||
