I updated it today and I found myself forced into playing at a reindeer version of the hero character that had a red nose and a Santa hat.. On the menus, it's a reindeer. In the save files for regular story mode on the menus it's a reindeer. On easy mode, it's a reindeer. On hard mode it's a reindeer. In Curly mode it's a reindeer. In Boss Attack it's a reindeer. In Sanctuary Time Attack it's a reindeer. And I see no way to turn it off. Am I the only one with this? I'd personally prefer the normal hero sprite, thank you, or at least an option to switch. Some background on my save file: -Beat easy 100% -Beat normal 100% (defeated "Hell"). -Beat hard on the bad & normal ending -Never beat Sanctuary Time Attack -Never beat Boss Attack Any thoughts, gents?

The third save is old (last saved before the update) and on Normal difficulty.

DiogenesKC Posted 10/23/2010 8:28:56 AM	I think there might be one for Halloween, too; I'm looking at a sprite rip, and there's an evil Quote and a jack-o-lantern Mimiga mask right next to the reindeer Quote sprites. --- Number of people who have called me The King: 13
NoirusCantus Posted 10/29/2010 10:07:27 PM	^Really? Been looking for those sort of, can you link me to the sprites? It's cool that Nicalis decided to include a costume change for holidays in the update, I wonder what other add-ons there are. --- Playing - Cave Story, Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker, Disgaea DS, Pokemon Pearl.
