Monster Tactics is here! It is a complete overhaul of Final Fantasy Tactics for PSX, with expanded content and increased difficulty. Monsters have taken over the world, and are now actually dangerous. Only 2 permanent playable humans are available (Ramza and Agrias), the rest of the characters have been replaced by monsters.
Plot changes are mostly humorous/parody of vanilla FFT. A lot of these poke fun at the terrible translations in the game, and recurring lines that existed like “She’s human, just like me!”

LGBT Pac-Man is here! Retro video games have historically lacked LGBT relationships, and that’s about to change! This is the first in a series of many hacks that will insert LGBT values into retro video games. Many LGBT gamers feel left out when they play retro games and it seems only right to make sure everyone is included in on the fun!
Tengen Ms. Pac-Man was chosen as the base of this hack due to the romantic elements in game and the fact that many believe it’s the best version of Pac-Man on NES.
Features in the hack include:
1)Pac-Man gets a boyfriend! Ms. Pac-Man has been changed to Pac-Man.
2) All new pro-gay items to collect!

We at Dynamic-Designs and Matt’s Messy Room have picked up Hyper Iria for translation. And better yet, we’ve already released Hyper Iria for you to play.
The game itself is a fun little platformer similar to the Zenki title we released a little while back. You take the role of Iria, a hardened scifi investigator looking into the dealings of a shady company trying to create super weapons. As you investigate various missions you will earn money and have the chance to upgrade your weapons and buy things such as grenades and useful items to help you on your missions.
The game also has a side scrolling component that can trigger at the beginning of missions for a change of pace. These sections are short and play similar to most side scrollers. You are able to move around the screen and shoot various things coming at you.
We at Dynamic-Designs and Matt’s Messy Room had fun translating this one and we hope you enjoy it just as much!

The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening DX was released for Gameboy Color in 1998. It is an enhanced version of the original Link’s Awakening released for Gameboy in 1993. During this generation, the “Hero Mode” feature was not yet officially created by Nintendo.
Hero Mode in the Zelda series usually means increased difficulty. For example, recovery hearts will not drop from enemies after killing them, nor by cutting all that lush green grass. Fairies that normally restore a large portion of the player’s health no longer appear, as well. With increased damage (up to x4) from enemies, this leaves the player with great challenges if they want to beat the game without dying.
This hack was going to be released alongside IcePenguin’s upcoming “Nightmares of Koholint Island” hack, but the decision was made to release it separately since the changes are plentiful, and it definitely offers enough to make the experience new and different. In addition to having an increased difficulty, some new content has been added. There are many new secret treasures to find, new bonus areas to explore, and even a powerful new sword!
