Die Hard: Die Hard Special Edition

Despite what some angry internet nerds may think,
Die hard for NES is a great game. Most of the criticism seems aimed towards the games poor graphics. This hack aims to rectify that by redesigning most of the
games graphics and also the difficulty has been lowered
abit by adjusting some key values for better balance and fun.

Cosmetic changes:

Almost all graphics including sprites, UI and hundreds
of background tiles have been redesigned to make the game
look better and for the levels to be less confusing

Text now have a new font and a couple of script edits

Gameplay:

Time limit per lock is now 5 minutes instead of 4

Health powerups now gives 5 points instead of 1

Line of sight tweaked in a few areas

About
------
Despite what some angry internet nerds may think,
Die hard for NES is a great game. Argueably one of the
most faithful game adaptations of a film ever made and
boasting some (for NES atleast) unique features such as
line of sight, realtime tracked AI, persistant destructable
terrain and enemy corpses, good script with lines lifted
straight from the movie, randomly generated item
locations and multiple endings for replay value and yes,
foot meter, this game is awesome.

It's far from perfect though and most of the criticism
can be aimed at the games bad graphics.
Despite having some of the best looking digitilized
cut-scenes the NES ever seen, most of the game looks awful.
This hack aims to rectify that by redesigning most of the
games graphics and also the difficulty has been lowered
abit by adjusting some key values for better balance.
