A new two-player ROM hack for DuckTales 2 on the NES allows players to team up as Scrooge McDuck and Darkwing Duck, bringing together two iconic Disney characters in one game. Created by a ROM hacker known as Ti, this hack introduces cooperative gameplay to the original DuckTales 2, which was released by Capcom in 1993. The hack enables two players to play simultaneously, with one controlling Scrooge McDuck and the other controlling Darkwing Duck, adding a fresh twist to the classic platformer.
In addition to the new character and multiplayer functionality, the hack also includes several improvements to the original game. These enhancements address performance issues, such as reducing slowdowns and fixing bugs. The sprites have been optimized for better display on hardware with sprite limits enabled, ensuring a smoother gameplay experience. To apply this hack, players need to patch an original DuckTales 2 ROM using tools like Floating IPS or beat.
