Rom Hack: Soul Blazer - Magician Mode Alpha

[DentedRazor]

Earlier this year, I decided to try my hand at romhacking for Soul Blazer, namely for a Magician Mode. After a bunch of R&D, I got it to work. Since I can't post a link to it, I will just say that you can find it on Rom Hack Plaza. Here is a description:

"Since the Master doesn’t trust you with swords, your pokes and swings with them will not harm any creature even monsters. Fortunately, your spells will work and have a slight boost. Be the best Magician you can be and defeat Deathtoll!

I do plan to add more in the future, but in the meantime, you can play with this. Requires an unmodified US rom of Soul Blazer.

Updates:

1. Updates Title Screen to indicate mode
2. 1st Lair is cleared of monsters (since your sword won’t hurt them)
3. Spells are 0-cost
4. Swords no longer do damage, only spells work
5. Certain enemies need to be defeated while specific swords are equipped
6. Bosses can be damaged with spells, but sword damage is used instead (power bracelet/super bracelet do double the damage like the sword as well)
7. Phoenix and Thunder Ring’s blasts are not affected
8. Deathtoll can be damaged with non-Phoenix spells (as long as the Soul Blade is equipped)"

If you give it a try, please let me know how it goes, I appreciate any feedback. Thanks!

Should be able to post links after a couple more posts (10!) it was mainly a spam reduction measure, but I gotchu covered!
