Project History:
-----------------

June 6, 2003
  This is the file date that my first table has. So I'm assuming that
  I started the project then.

  Uh, I didn't really keep a history this time around. So I'll just
  say that thanks to shiroi, I was able to finish this. Now, can
  anyone donate a title screen? 'Cause that's all that's left, as far
  as I know! ^^;;

Version History:
-----------------
  Version 1.0,    October 12, 2003 [7,443 bytes]
   Shiny new title screen by BMF54123. Thanks! It's finally done!

  Version 0.99a,  October 11, 2003 [5,031 bytes]
   I uh, wrote a wrong name in one of the endings. Instead of Trevor...
   I wrote Simon. This was in the Simon + Grant Ending. Anyway. Thanks
   to Joseph Tek Fox for the heads up.

  Version 0.99,  October 2, 2003 [5,031 bytes]
   Done. Go. Play. NOW.


What's left:
-----------------
  Nothing, as far as I know. Other than the title.


Game Notes:
-----------------
  Read a Castlevania III FAQ. :P

  There are some gameplay differences, most notably in Grant, who throws his
  dagger by default, unlike CVIII. That and most of the script is different.
  I had to edit some things out. 714 bytes of space wasn't enough by a long
  shot. >_<
  
  And most importantly, you CAN NOT upload a pre-patched rom to your website.
  Vimm can bite my furry two-tailed ass. Bitch.

  And, since Colin Moriarty refuses to believe this, Sypha Belenades / Belmundes
  IS FEMALE. The US version of the game describes HER as female. The Japanese
  version of the game describes HER as female. So nyah. I don't think he'll ever
  update the FAQ, though. I guess he retired. *shrugs*
