Description
FINAL UPDATE (v30-06-26): Finishing touches given to the title screen and some cutscenes.
Just like in the first game, this hack also combines various elements from other hacks and graphical edits to deliver a unique experience:
-
Title Screen Graphics Edited.
-
Palette Hack ver.1.0 by Devilfox: Modifies the color palette of the character sprite and cutscenes to give them a darker tone.
-
Movement Hack ver.1.0 by omega_rugal: This hack reduces the delay the character experiences when starting to walk and also reduces the slippery controls:
-
Reduced delay when starting the walking animation.
-
Batman stops sliding earlier.
-
The stun when hit is significantly reduced, although it still occurs occasionally at some points in the game. Box Art by Antonio de Lima.
Note: It is recommended to use the MESEN emulator to get a real view of the game’s colors, such as Batman’s sprite and its true shades of gray, among others.

The black costume from the early 90's films is best accentuated in this hack being displayed on the game's glorious sprite for Batman. Stage clears and the intro have also been appropriately recolored to the same quality as the original game. If the blue color for Batman doesn't appeal to you, try this great Sunsoft action platformer with this hack for a new sleek costume to enjoy.
An extra addition to the palette swap is omega_rugal's movement hack which aids the game's pacing without major changes to the player's physics besides a more reliably short slide. This hack specifically can be downloaded standalone from Black Edition if the blue palette for Batman is more preferred.
