Blades of Steel: Deathmatch Hockey is a modified version of the classic NES hockey game Blades of Steel, emphasizing a more aggressive fighting mechanic. In this hack, defeated players remain on the ice rather than going to the penalty box. Health points in brawls are increased, and players are more likely to instigate fights. Additionally, demo mode features unmodified timers and team aesthetics have been updated.
This hack twists (violently) Blades of Steel gameplay giving more benefits to skilled fighters.
Gameplay changes:
- Players beaten in a brawl will not get dragged to penalty box, instead they will be left there on a field, knocked out.
- HP during brawl got increased from 5 to 8 and indicator is invisible.
- Knocked players will only get up during period changes (sometimes one or two guys might get up if a team lost all-or-almost-all of its players).
- Players are much more likely to knock opposite players or start a fight (instead of just bumping into them).
Misc Changes:
- Demo mode stop timer is removed, now you can watch a demo of a full cpu vs cpu match.
- Team names & palettes got changed.
- Jumbotron commercials removed.
