Here is the final version of J.Russell's Lemmings Sega Mega Drive/Genesis hack - Colour and Level Title Fix v1.2 for NTSC (JP/US).

Me and Josh have recently been tweaking a few more edits to finally put this great hack to bed. He's made some new colour edits and i've made two more level title fixes, all is explained in the video.

CHANGES AND FIXES BY JOSHO V1.2:

1. Dirt levels no longer the vomit yellow green colour,
2. Yellow Pillar palette matches the Entry and Exit.
3. Blue Crystal palette now matches the Amiga palette including the very dark one now black rather than BG blue.
4 Red Fire Levels now improved to look more red and darker.
5. Intro Cutscene is brighter to match the Amiga’s version.
6. Title screen Palette has improved.
7. The Level card palettes have now been improved to adjust the contrast better, including making the yellow text now a coffee bronze
colour.
8. Fixed the Level 1 Title name ''Just dig !'' to ''Just dig!''
9. Fixed 2 Player Mode Level 10 Title “The Rope Bridge”
10. Fixed the Brief to recommended percentage of saves.

LEVEL TITLE FIXES BY ADRIAN GAUNA V1.2:

Fun Level 10: Smile if you love Lemmings

Tricky Level 4: Been there, seen it, done it.
Tricky Level 6: Lemmings in the basement

Tricky Level 17: Diet Lemmingade
Taxing Level 16: Mary Poppins’ land

Mayhem Level 12: The Far Side.
Mayhem Level 20: No added colours or Lemmings
Fixed a typo in the ending credits from “GRAPICHS” to “GRAPHICS”
Updated ROM header and fixed CheckSum

J.Russell recently uploaded a great 40 minute review video on this hack, he reviewed the same NTSC (JU) ROM hack v1.2 but played it in PAL 50Hz, so game play was slightly slower. I made my video here a little differently to Josh's. I captured the entire video in NTSC 60Hz with the same ROM hack NTSC (JU) v1.2 running from my Hyperkin Mega RetronHD clone console using my Mega EverDrive X7.

The first 46 minutes is the initial review and then I show direct game play capture with full audio just for some added advertisement chucked in.
