Improves this Gameboy title by 200%
Reviewed By: Supergamerguy on 08 Jun 2022I honestly don’t know how people played Donkey Kong Land in its original black-and-white. I feel like a player would almost have to have something other than the original Gameboy to see what’s going on. This hack aims to rectify that, and it does it brilliantly. Every level is now aflush with color, specifically palettes that seem to fit perfectly with the environment. If you’re still having trouble seeing the Kongs, you can even change their palette too! Quality of Life changes like displayed level names and and a reserve Kong icon are the cherry on top of this amazing project. Do NOT play this game without this hack!
