Hack description

This patch removes full screen flashing effects that the game normally does between levels, and when Rei is onscreen. In the latter case, the screen is just kept in the brighter of the two palettes it normally switches between.

Big, big thank youmica152023-10-18Version 1.0

So couple weeks ago I have played the original rom of this game after randomly finding out about it on YouTube. Unfortunately I don't speak Japanese, so never read any associated warnings - and shortly after starting the playthrough I have suffered an epilepsy attack because of screen flashing.

Finding out couple days later that someone - NovaSquirrel - for absolutely no profit, no gratification, no recognition took a time to hack the game to remove the flashing effects, to allow people like me to enjoy an odd game from few decades ago - it's incredible.

Nova, you are an absolute legend, my new hero. A good person. One of "the goodest". Thank you for that. I am in no position to reward your efforts in any substantial form, but feel free to contact me for a coffee tip.
