EarthBound Beginnings (Mother in Japanese) is a role playing game for the Nintendo Entertainment System.

This is a collection of small hacks for EarthBound Zero:

* Graphics restoration hack - Restores the graphics that were altered when Mother was localized into EarthBound Zero

* Gameplay balance hack - This reduces the random encounter rate and boosts earned experience and money to make the game more enjoyable and less tedious

* Font hack - This replaces the font with the one used in the GBA fan translation

This collection also includes a patch that will turn a clean EarthBound prototype ROM into the Demiforce version. This disables the copy protection, which normally interferes with hacks.
