Great potential, poorly executionCryinOnion2019-12-28Version 1.1

Let's try something challenging: Be honest without being cruel.

Version 1.1 usually means that we are looking at the "finished and revised" version of a project, and this particular one would have great potential, as long as its author spent much more time and effort on it, cause in its current state it looks extremely amateurish...

The title screen has been clumsily modified, changes in cutscenes are irregular, and the main character has a lot of room for improvement, and that's all... not even the original color palettes have been modified.

It is impossible for me to recommend this hack as it has been uploaded, but I encourage its author to keep working and (of course) to ask for help whenever he needs it to learn.
