Short and fun - please make more!The Beaky Buccaneer2022-11-14Version 1.1

Sunlit's Star Fox Minihack is, as its title suggests, not a lengthy game, but it makes up for that by being a lot of fun. It's also a hack of a game that, until recently, hasn't gotten a whole lot of ROM-hacking attention, which earns it more points!

The game is a short run through a handful of planets which are mostly overhauls of ones from the original game; The enemy waves have all been changed, though the bosses and their attacks remain the same. Difficulty is similar to Course 1 of the original SNES title.

Overall, the hack feels like a nice companion-piece to the Star Fox Super Weekend Competition game (a truncated hack of the original, albeit an official one that was used at various events in the 1990s), as well as being a miniature sequel in its own right.

If you love the SNES Star Fox games, this hack offers more of that, and that will always be welcome!

A very impressive creation!kandowontu2022-11-14Version 1.1

Very impressive hack, shows what one person and a text editor can do all by themselves.

Offers a unique Starfox experience, and is a welcome challenge to those who are fans of mini-hacks.

Props to the creator, and hopeing this is the start of a wave of Starfox mods!
