Description:
This patch fixes and improves several details of the 32X version prototype recently released by Hidden Palace, bringing it closer to what would be a proper commercial release:
- Region conversion (the original prototype release is Europe-only).
- Color palette improvement for most of the backgrounds. They are rendered by the Mega Drive and had several repeated values to them causing the loss of pixel art details.
- Audio tempo and pitch fix for 60 Hz regions (the original prototype release is adjusted for 50 Hz).
- Bypass of the pulsing-red test screen during the boot-up sequence of the game.
The 32X version of Pinocchio features a few exclusive background layers and raster effects; better default control scheme and more sound clips than the Mega Drive’s; so after applying this patch it can be considered the definitive version of the game.
Successfully tested on real hardware.
