Great job! How do you figure out what to change, and what to change it to? I have a hex editor for the 3DO that I've tried to play around with but never had any success.

Thanks!
For these simple(r) systems I used a combination of Cheat Engine (//http) (to isolate the variables during play) and Hex Workshop (//http) in Windows to make edits.
I haven't been able to do rom hacks on systems for Jaguar or higher (3DO, Saturn, etc). Only RAM hacks (can only 'trap' what I need during play but it changes after powering off.) I'd asked people in the know about hacking Jaguar rom but I'm assuming it's some kind of secret.
Will be testing scanmem (//http) for Ubuntu soon so I can hopefully get back to doing this. It's fun.

What to change it to is usually 6002 (jumps 1 byte) or 6004 (jumps 2 bytes). The code following the string creating the event is usually followed next by the part that changes it. Like health going down by 1, etc. Using one of those to jump over this part makes the health stay the same.
There's better explanations out there with all the technical jargon but in the end this is pretty much what happens. I was playing GEX on 3D0 and Saturn and could freeze the life bars and other stuff but when tracing the string back to a rom location, it always went to some odd location that I couldn't do anything with.
This may be all common knowledge but hope some of it is useful.

You're welcome 
There's tons of info out there on the process and once the steps are known it's just repetitive (but still fun). There are some games I couldn't hack but very few. I'm sure they can be hacked but I lost interest in pursuing it further due to time constraints. Here (//http)'s a great place to start if interested. This guy Tony is a guru and helped me sort out a lot of info to get my hacks working correctly.

Some Bosses/mid stage bosses can inflict damage but the majority of enemies are harmless. Also, moves like suplexes won't kill an enemy in one hit. The straight up punch will though

Cool, I didn't check every stage so would be great to hear some feedback :)
I have notify checked on this thread and several others but not receiving email notifications. What's the RVG email so I can check if it's blocked? I've tried the obvious search of rvg, gamer, etc. but nothing came up in my block list.

Saw this game on AVGN, old episode, and decided to take a crack at it. The one reviewed was for NES but I grabbed the Genesis version.

I watched dead_media_archives guy on Tiktok spend a few days trying to beat this game live. I'd never played it but got interested. Way too hard imo so I made some changes :p
