The Storied Sword
About
The Storied Sword (formerly known as Project Sword) is an action-platformer currently in development for the NES. It is a collaboration between Bite The Chili Productions and Raft Labs Interactive. Assume the mantle of the mysterious folk hero Candlemaster Cedric or the elusive Orchid of Mourning, and wall-jump your way through the trials this fast-paced, multi-scrolling platformer has to offer. Inspired by classics like Tecmo’s Ninja Gaiden and Sunsoft’s Batman, The Storied Sword is sure to raise the challenge level for NES Homebrew platformers and bring players the 8-bit twitch-combat style they know and love.

Which version should you download?
Both ROMs are identical in gameplay. Try the GTROM version first. The UNROM512 version is provided for compatibility with older emulators or cheap clone systems, but has graphical artifacts that aren't present in the GTROM version.
