A downloadable game

Original Adventure Island IV for NES was never released outside of Japan, despite being a masterpiece and the true GOAT of the franchise. It is a Metroidvania-styled game, with non-linear progression and open world mechanics at it's core. No official translation existed for the game, though many fan-made versions have been made over the years.

This remaster aims to slightly modernize the game, allowing it to run in Full HD (or even 4K) natively and without emulation, and it also fixes many bugs and adds quality-of-life improvements, such as proper saving support and separate life bars for dino-pets, in addiion to extended soundtrack that takes inspiration from preceding Adventure Island games for NES.
