The crossover we never got...Cyiatic2021-05-16Version 1.9

Great JoJo DS rom hack that doesn't take itself too seriously while still sticking to the JoJo theme. The abilities are fun to use, Zephyr is a blast to fight, and even features music from other game series.

While the wait for 2.0 is still on, this certainly remains as one of the more impressive Dawn of Sorrow rom hacks.

Amazing Hack! But minor issues...HippoPilot2019-11-24Version 1.9

Overall an excellent hack with forseeable improvement. Note that I've used the no touch screen and luck patch (they're fine unlike definitive as noted) so some stuff I mention may be because of those. Also note I haven't beaten the game yet but I can't wait for when I can stop time!

There needs to be character portraits updated so that I don't see Belmont and Cruz's faces in cutscenes when playing as Jotato and Dio, the "Story Crap" menu and screens are a bit buggy and need a clean up also. The added jokes are hilarious and the menacing stance when holding up made me cry years of joy. I can't wait to see what you do next but I would like to suggest something. Change Jotaro mode to JoJo mode. Since you can't use stands as Jotaro it doesn't make sense so instead you should play as Jonathan to keep that vampire killing vibe. And might I also suggest changing the sprites of the cross weapon to be Joseph's Clackers? Also adding another set of "menacing" to the ready item stance for JoJo would be sweet. Its a lot to ask but I really like this hack and want it to be even better than it already is. Arrivederci!

Edit: I suggest Graham be Yoshikage Kira since he looks a lot like him.

Excellent but...Hee-Ho2019-11-12Version 1.9

I like all the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure references i like all in this hack but you can make compatibility with the Patch of Castlevania DoS definitive edition that was make a perfect game with JoJo references. You can upgrade the Jotaro Sprite and mini Sprite from the character Change and the put the Dio Face in the cutscenes for example Soma talk with Dmitri you can?
