Hack description

Description:

The Legend of Zelda: Allhallows Eve is a romhack of A Link to the Past which consists of new Halloween-themed Overworlds, Dungeons, Sprites, Music, and plenty of ASM surprises to see! This hack was put together in just two months by Letterbomb, Jeimuzu, Scawful, Zarby89, and JaredBrian, and because of the short development time we had, there may still be some small bugs but they shouldn't affect too much or crash the game. Later, there is plans to release a v1.01 or v1.10 to fix what bugs people do find in the game. The creators hope that people enjoy this hack and hope it'll inspire people to start their own hack or collab!

v1.01 Update:

- Balancing Issues inside of the Manor.
- Some music fixes (No more beeps and boops in the rain sections of the game).
- Some other minor fixes.

v1.02 Update:

- Text Fixes.
- Dungeon Fixes.
- Bug Fixes and Rebalancing.

v1.03 Update:

- Major Collision Issues in Dungeon Rooms.
- Dungeon Fixes.
- Enemy Damage.

Later, the game will be updated more, and a lot of asm stuff will be fixed in v1.10.

Reviews

Clearly a lot of effort went into this	LostSoulSilver	2024-01-26	Version 1.03
This was made with love. Unfortunately it's also pointlessly cryptic to the point of frequently not knowing what to do or where to go. Spamming high level enemies on every single map is also a sure way to increase unnecessary frustration. Maybe I'm just not good at the game, but I sure didn't enjoy it as much as I would have liked to

If you love Halloween themes and Zelda3 this is a must.	Mylocke	2023-12-01	Version 1.03
This All Hallows Eve hack is absolutely delightful to play. If you love Halloween themes and Zelda3 this is a must. Lots of love and care went into the spriting / re-skinning of (I think) every single enemy and NPC in the game. Most all with other Nintendo or fun Halloween themed characters. Everything seems alive and natural to be in the world. Some really cool effects were even kept and changed for many Enemies. Out of the 5 Bosses in the game, 4 are new to Zelda 3 (ported from other Zelda games and given new skins to fit the Halloween theme). Pumpkins, Haunted Forests, Flesh / Hell Dungeon, Haunted Houses, and a spooky wasteland of perpetual night with a Gauntlet of everything leading to the final boss. Money Economy is balanced, Health availability and upgrades are very progressive. Most all items are earned with puzzles that require a bit of thought, but aren't too hard. I needed to use the ZSNES Layer removal trick to get past a few puzzles but then kicked myself for its obviousness in retrospect. It took me 6 hours of my first playthrough but I think I could easily cut that down to 4, maybe 3.5 in a repeat play (which I will likely do next year if there is an update)
