Just for the heck of it I swapped the CHR of the released USA Monster Party with that of the proto's.
Other than the occasional sprite errors thanks to the proto lacking certain enemies and items (especially Stage 2's dripping slime and the "?" after killing a boss) a US ROM is just as effective as ever even with the swapped CHR. To keep a long story shot I'll just show off a few screens showing the boss dialogue with the Japanese graphics in place of the US ones. Nope, I still don't see the resemblance to Audrey II the Man-Eating Plant is supposed to have. Aside from being colored wrong and not having any texture to it's body, there's very little stems/leaves coming out of his vine. The man-eating plant from Joe & Mac was a much closer match to Audrey II, IMO. Apparently combining pumpkin and monkey DNA isn't a good idea. Probably the only other boss in the game that's borderline iconic, alongside the Man-Eating Plant. He looks better in the US Palette, though when I ported the JPN graphics into the USA ROM, I needed to do a bit more with the rematch battle's extra graphics to make the top segment of the "spider's" forehead use the same "II" graphic as the original. |

0x00009e is where the Health is, for anyone who wants to compare differences in the games, this'll make it easy. Set the health to ff and freeze the address.
I've played through the first stage, and I think my favourite difference thus far is the pumpkin ghost guy is actually originally a fox on a horse throwing daggers. (Though I think the pumpkin might make a little more sense. I found the Mark/Bert address but then accidently locked the game. It's a quick "FF" to the value, it's somewhere around the address that adjusts the height of Mark. Hope this helps. ____________________ セシル |

Posted by Kiokuffiib11 Actually, the Pumpkin Ghost was originally a Planet of the Apes homage in the porto, with a monkey on horseback shooting bullets at you and a destroyed Statue of Liberty in the background. It's miles harder to kill compared to the Pumpkin Ghost since it has a bigger hotbox. It's also the only boss in the game to receive a massive alteration in how it's sprite is assembled, since when loading the JP graphics into a US ROM, the Planet of the Apes boss is scrambled beyond recognition. |
