    Ok… from what I have played. Let me review the Rom hack first.
    GHZ Act 1: The overall is great but some needs to be modified to make it fully original.
    GHZ Act 2: Same as act 1 but there are some downsides.

    The S tube is closed (I’ll count as a downside cause

    WHY PEANUT???

    Then the checkpoint has a buzz bomber which kills you after you stayed too long. (NEEDS TO BE FIXED.)
    GHZ Act 3: Ditto, but there are also some downside which I can point out.

    This is literally just terrible, please fix this. Not hating. IMG_7736.png
    Some spikes on the ground should not be there.
    The Rom hack has potential so good job on this decent hack.

    Not bad at all, considering you made it in just 23 days and you're already working on another project!
    I have to say I liked the soundtrack, and despite a few bugs, it plays quite well;)
    Just one last thing: maybe it would be better to focus on the main hack first and then move on to the update.
