Game Description:
Hellfire is a scrolling shooter video game that was initially released in the arcades before it was ported to the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive in 1990. The story takes place in 2998 where a Space Federation member known only as Captain Lancer must fight legions of enemies in space before confronting the Super Mech which is responsible for the destructive and mysterious space matter known as The Black Nebula.
Hack Description:
This patch corrects the tempo of the music in this game when played on Model 2 Genesis / Mega Drive systems.
You don't need this patch if you have a Model 1 or play on an emulator or FPGA system.

Credit goes to Eke-Eke (the author of Genesis Plus GX) over on the sega-16 forums for figuring this stuff out.
Unable to download his original patch without an account, this version was made based on his description, and tested to ensure proper functionality.

The intention is to make sure this was available in more places so that more people could enjoy the audio of the Genesis version.
