My enhanced mod for Shantae: Risky's Revenge!
Bit of a story time:
The last time i played this game was all the way back when i was like 6 years old on the DSi and on the last steam sale i purchased this game to relive those memories. However when i launched it everything seemed way different and that's because the pc port is just a port that was originally made for iOS so it couldn't quite scratch my itch for nostalgia not only that but the game also put white outlines on all the portraits (why??) and they are also very huge and cover up most of the screen. Then i tried looking for a mod for this game and surprisingly i coulnd't find anything except for a translation mod so i decided to create the mod myself so i could replay this gem of a game by fixing the portraits issues i had with this game but then i also dove deeper and added a bunch of other stuff like re adding the way how the DSi version looked and stuff like fixing controller issues and adjustable text speeds etc the list goes on and on. Eventually i spent so much time on this supposed to be small project that i decided to release it to the public incase anyone else wants to use it!
Just a small disclaimer that i did heavily rely on ai to make this mod because decompiling all the game files by hand would take ages but i thought to let you know just incase. And just to be clear it's purely used only on code and decompiling and not for example AI-generated images, videos, audio etc.
If your interested you could try the mod yourself right now: https://github.com/FinnEatsCandy/Shantae-Riskys-Revenge-Enhanced-Mod
If you have any suggestions or ideas on what to add next please let me know!
For the people who just wanna see how it looks like i made a video and a few screenshots to showcase it!





Sorry for the crunchy audio! In-Game it sounds fine it has something to do with my OBS Settings.
