Makes it like play like all recent Zelda gamesIndianaRoy2020-09-15Version 1.0

This hack makes sense, it's a great way to play Zelda 2 something like all other Zelda games. The sword beam doesn't damage tougher enemies so is perfect for the small ones and all those spawning ones at dungeons. The jars now function as the small hearts at any other Zelda game. And you now have an incentive to try all the magic at any time. And since the difficulty comes from precision it still can be challenging

The only problem is that it makes the life magic way overpowered, and optional hack that disable it would make it a perfect patch for anyone that wants to play it in a different way
