Night Slashers v1.0

First release — first FPGA implementation of Data East deco32 (encrypted ARM6, dual sprite chips, Ace alpha blender).

Fully playable and hardware-verified: sprites, shadows, stage-2 mist/fog, transparent carriage, character bio / story-art portraits, sound, service menu.

Install: rbf → _Arcade/cores/, mra(s) → _Arcade/, MAME 0.284 romsets (nslasher/nslasherj/nslashers) → games/mame/. The Japan set has the gore hardwired.

Built on JTFRAME by jotego (GPLv3). Source tree publishes here after the follow-on Data East cores; available on request meanwhile.
