1.About the Game

What's bad in a game offering a mash-up of Castlevania, Metroid and '80s Heavy Metal?
|
|
Almost nothing, I dare to say. Holy Diver premiered in 1989, and while its primary source
|
|
of inspiration comes from Konami's classic dark series, you won't be whipping the undead
|
|
in this neat action game. Instead, the main character Randy R. Crimson sports a range of
|
|
attacks similar to Samus Aran's ones.
|
|
|
|
The game also draws a few elements from Ronnie James Dio's eponymous video, such as
|
|
Randy's attire, a ruined church for its first level and some red-hooded cultists.
|
|
Some of you will even spot a few classic Heavy Metal references and tributes.
|
|
|
|
Holy Diver can be pretty unforgiving at times, but that was a common occurrence in games
|
|
back in the day. The game has unlimited continues and plenty of extra lives, so it's not
|
|
that of a challenge. Enjoy!

v1.0 Release Notes:
|
|
|
|
This translation will not be remembered for its technical achievements.
|
|
In fact, it's a simple job almost any hacker can pull off.
|
|
It's my first English translation ever, and also the first in almost
|
|
5 years of inactivity, so I chose this game to get some old blood pumping back.
|
|
I'm also a sucker for the Famicom and its glorious history of translations alike.
|
|
Let's not forget the toaster!
|
|
|
|
Holy Diver has a nice gothic font with some 8x16 letters, but in this release
|
|
I opted to replace it with the Dracula's Curse one to circumvent some space issues.
|
|
I'll probably restore (and correct) the original one in a later release.
