Hack description

This patch changes the speed at which the health energy of the bosses fill up.
In vanilla Mega Man 4, this takes way longer than in any other MM game.
With this patch, filling up boss health takes as long as it does in Mega Man 5 and 6.
A noticeable improvement.

- 1.1 applies this change to the fortress (final stage) bosses as well.

That's a lovely addition! Favorite game.Trumpster2019-10-11Version 1.0

This is my second review. For a game I absolutely love, from childhood.

That's the kind of romhack I love the most, subtle, but still very meaningful. Quality of life, as some say.

Now, do the previous 3 Megaman games fill up the boss energy bar as quick as this hack does? If not, would you be willing to change them too? Aside from that, is it within your capacity to make this hack for Rockman IV as well? I mean, all the other three previous games in English and Japanese. Thanks! Good Bless you!
