Blood Warrior is a fighting game with a wrong traditional Japanese theme.

Debug Menu

There is a disabled level select in the game. It can be re-enabled with this MAME cheat:

  <cheat desc="Replace Test Menu with Debug Menu">
    <comment>Loads the debug menu instead of test menu on startup when test mode dip switch is set</comment>
    <script state="on">
      <action>temp0=maincpu.md@1862</action>
      <action>maincpu.md@1862=0000361C</action>
    </script>
    <script state="off">
      <action>maincpu.md@1862=temp0</action>
    </script>
  </cheat>

A detailed explanation of what the debug flags do is here.

Other Debug Tools

Holding the Tilt button (mapped to T by default in MAME) will run the game in slow motion. Pressing the Service Mode button while Tilt is held will enable a player sprite move function. P1 and P2 joysticks move their respective characters.

Hidden / Unused Text

ATOP 1993.12

The developer name and a date (possibly the build date) are used as a check string in the game's save data. This can be viewed in the shared RAM at 0x208070.

ryu won
bozu won
kikori won
oni won
gaikotu won
asyura won
himitu won

At 0x10078, there are a number of 'round win' strings that indicate more characters were once planned for the game.

Besides completely re-working the title screen, they also dropped the proverb at the top, "火事と喧嘩は江戸の華" (Fires and fights are the blossoms of Edo).
