This is an excellent variation on the base Redux patch - including the regenerating magic from Parallel Worlds is a great example. However, the Minish Cap Link and the new shield sprites don't fit the art style of ALttP at ALL, and feel very out of place ruining what would otherwise be an exceptional experience. Making those changes optional would vastly improve this hack.

It's no secret ALttP Redux is the hot article of the moment when it comes to ALttP hacks with many mechanical and UI refinements that are welcome.

However - and this is an entirely personal note - while it does help remedy the infamous pink haired Link somewhat, it doesn't enhance the player character's graphics enough to be visually pleasing.

Pretty Redux does what it says on the tin, prettifying ALttPR with the much more pleasant Minish Cap graphics for Link, while retaining many of the enhancements found in Redux for a very complete experience.

That said, I'd like to note two things, in case the author finds this review.

One: it's a bit of bummer that Zelda wasn't touched upon. I realize her screen time in this game might not justify the trouble of working on her sprite to match Link's, but still, I wanted to point this out.

Two: I feel Link's palette could stand to be be darkened a little bit, to match the tones of ALttP a little better.

Again, this is entirely personal and I thank the author for making this beautification hack for Redux. It needed it.

The sword beam in vanilla LttP is a bit overpowered, this hack changes that in a unique, balanced way. My only complaint is that I don't personally like or care for the other features from hacks such as Redux. It'd be awesome if it were made a separate patch applicable to base LttP.
