About this project

No major change in gameplay but:
- Some sprites of strange/ugly enemies have been replaced by most common ones (exit bikers, boxers, armored dogs and football players).
- Some damages have been changed. Eagle: damages reduced from 3 to 1 (3 = no sense for a simple bird) ; Green Ninja: increased from 1 to 2 ; Bomberhead' sickle: from 1 to 2 ; Bloody Malth's lightning bolts: from 3 to 4 ; Jaquio's fireballs: from 1 to 2 (that's a challenge!)
- Various graphical adjustments (for example, no more flickering in Barbarian's sprite).
- Some palette changes.
- Bloody Malth don't move his buckler anymore.
- Barbarian's axe is now a little more dangerous.
- Time Freeze has been removed from the game (the level 6-3 was really too easy). Replaced by a simple bonus.
- And others little changes!
