The hack makes the following changes:

- Changes the in game currency from horns to rupees.
- Changes the life drop from bread to hearts.
- Changes the load/save/exit text to iconography.
- Removes the strange glow around torches.
- Refines the skull graphics in the desert.
- Replaces the desert cactus graphics.
- Refines bushes in all biomes.
- Modifies cobblestone roads.
- Modifies fences.
- Refines tombs.

It was made with Meka and Master Tile Converter.

A fun little hackfox4202023-10-05Version 1.0

Such a nice little edit. I love the Zelda themed items, it definitely fits the game. Since it is a pretty shameless Zelda clone, just with Golden Axe.
