X-men 2, but now you can actually "Save" the world.peacefighter2022-01-13Version 1.1b

This hack has two major changes to the original game. The game saves your progress after each level and you also can go back to the character select screen and restart your current level. Saving your progress after each level is a big improvement and this game should have had one. I love the early levels, but I always play for short sessions. Now I will finally be able to enjoy every level.

The ability to return to the character select screen is also a welcome change too. It seems redundant to have this as an option because after you lose a life you automatically return to the character select screen, but in the very first level you don't have that ability. The game chooses your character at random. With this patch you now can restart the first level as many times as you want until you get the character you wish to play as. In the original game you would have to reset the system manually.

These are some little Quality of Life changes that make this game more enjoyable. I highly recommend this for fans of this game.
