Well done.
What about female guards, or better yet, turning the princess into a boss?
Princess of Persia features a female boss in level 6 and there's Amazon from the SNES port - but she hasn't been "ported" to the DOS version AFAICS.
On my first SNES mod, The Queen Of Light, the final boss is the Queen herself (using the Amazon), and the guards are a mix of male and female, though they all use the same clothing (due to at the time not being able to create custom sprites), but you could tell thanks to the voice grunts.
With custom graphics on DOS, they could create some female guards.
My still unfinished port of The Queen Of Light for DOS will try to have female guards and the Queen herself for a change.
