Wonderful job BcnAbel76!! I guess this is the ultimate version of the game!
I really love this kind of hacks that improve games this way. Some SMS games really need them. Thank you for making It possible. |

| Would it be possible to change music and use one closer to the arcade version? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Thankyou for comments people
Revo I tried to enhance most significant poor graphics in my opinion daco, it would be possible, but it requieres you to compose "Over The Rainbow" theme and replace it in ROM Good luck to all Competition Entries Here a new comparision, take a look into characters:

| Soundtrack replacement with PSGlib is relatively easy, the hardest part is probably dumping all the SFX. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Love the hack! It's amazing how nice you made it look :)
This part is nothing to do with your work, but, just about the SMS version in general: I really miss the over the rainbow version of the music (as in c64, arcade or Japanese NES version), though. I wonder, since most of the music is the same - basically it's just the first half of the level music was re-written, if it would be possible to take the c64 sid or nes nsf and convert the music data over for the first part? Just a theory/idea. best regards, - dink |

| It’s highly unlikely you could easily make a “mechanical” music port due to the chip differences, it really needs to be arranged/tracked by someone with musical talent... | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Let me tell you this, if any of you people with actual technical skills can find the location of the music data in the rom (e.g. with emulicious's black magic thing), I'll look into editing it.
Also do you have png sprites of all the enemies by any chance? This might give me the motivation to resume working on my level editor. |

I agree, it would be great to replace the music with the Over the Rainbow theme.
Much more hacking would be to rewrite the music engine, make music with FM support and rip FX with PSG I do not have PNG files about enemies or characters, I redraw directly to the ROM, you can visit the Fandom page, it was my inspiration to remake enemies similar to the Arcade version I found a lot of information and it helped me a lot, I also learned a lot about this saga that I liked so much as a child. https://bubblebobble.fandom.com/wiki/Rainbow_Islands Also check this Bubby and Rainbow image, it got the idea to make this hack

| Sorry for the noob question but could somebody pls direct me to the original ROM used for this hack? PS: I was looking use Floating IPS or Lunar IPS if that makes any difference. PS: I did try the "standard" Alex Kidd in Miracle World ROM but that threw an error. Thanks | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Awesome thanks. I always default to Alex Kidd for all the hacks but quickly realized this would be different but just wanted to confirm exactly which ROM to hack. I have this now... great job! |
