Hi, I just set up a Patreon! The options to support me are there, but I also wanna use it to ramble about my ASM works. A post about the baby Reznors is already up - if you're into that, go check me out:

Welp, overhauling my SMW Kris sprites from like 2 years back with my current skillset, just wanted to share the progress so far - left ones are the newer/updated ones (WIP, expect updates!)

Just dropped two goal march-themed patches:

- Pictured, a fix for the time to score tallying on level end yielding glitchy score values if the time is between 400-999: smwc.me/s/41475
- The bonus stars sum game I showed off before: smwc.me/s/41476

Enjoy! #smw #romhacking

I'm unhappy with the Director's Cut update of Aeron's Golden Cookie Quest, that I released in 2024, because I rushed it to the C3 event, so here I'm working in a Special Edition.

First, removed the minimalist status bar, which can get cut in CRT monitors and replaced it with a sprite status bar.

Whenever I get a goal post bar I try to rush summing up the star points before the game does... so I coded a mechanic that lets you do that and rewards you with a life if you get the sum right.

Press L or R after any goal post to play!

The way I played a part in designing the preliminary sketches for the Bowser Throne Room 🎄!! I love seeing sketches come to life in its full glory ✨✨

TDW / StrikeForcer, thank you for commissioning me!
HNY! I've been away for the holidays, but just before Christmas I was able to deliver this nifty boss for StrikeForcer's @romhackraces.com level: Winter Bowser!

Featuring two phases, including riding a sled with multiple attacks!

Drew some running animations for my playable Mario gang yesterday, heavily inspired by Mario Wonder.

Giving the frames a bounce touch was honestly kind of fun.

Oh right! I drew the graphics for that boss!

They're in essence Icegoom's SMB1 Redrawn Bowser, but bigger and christmas-themed Mario Kart Tour style (it's straight up Bowser's santa costume from that game).

Step aside Mega Man 2's Leaf Shield, Super Mario World got its own Throw Block flavored shield!

Finished animating my Yoshi's House equivalent for my SMW hack. I'm a bit shocked I was able to economize so much of this thing given the limitations I was working with...

SURPRISE RAMBLING DROP! In lieu of the release of Sumo Brother EX, I just finished a big post about the quirks of vanilla Sumo Brother's flames. It also goes into what happens when you carry an item through a pipe.

Go have a read! www.patreon.com/posts/sumo-b...

Sumo Brother's flames are weird -- and so is carrying items through pipes, incidentally | Chill Programming for Super Mario World

After some trials and errors I finally managed to add a short intro for the world bosses I'll be using in my SMW hack.

Bowser Jr. was quite literally the guinea pig for this.

Working on skull rafts that
- have configurable size
- have configurable speed, including to the left
- interact with walls
- there can be multiple of independently: one raft won't activate every skull on screen
- don't despawn too easily (working on this one)

SPOILER WARNING! Final boss created for the other one of Saela's latest drops, Replica, where Mario sets off in an adventure to face his biggest enemy...

If you think I've been a little too quiet with bosses recently, well, I just gotta be 🫢

SMBX project a little bit on hold. I've been having other cool ideas left and right that I wanna do. At least I've done a few of the cooler ones by now :P

Dropped two sprites just now!

Bouncing Paraspiny: smwc.me/s/41055
Sumo Brother EX: smwc.me/s/41057

I'm sorry ASM mods... wait, I'm one of them now 💀 This is us trying to dodge the full queue

Essentially done with: Sumo Brother EX, which has
- flames that detect ground
- configurable flame spread and dissipation speeds
- configurable number of tiles to spread through
- an option to spread indefinitely. Run!

A gimmick I created for one of Saela's latest drops, Karma, applied very graciously.

Named by me "Corpse Stepping", it allows you to profane a set number of Mario's corpses for his own filthy platforming purposes.

Go check Karma out! Download it here: smwc.me/s/41040

An expansion to Sumo Brother's flames that
- only ends when ground ends
- has configurable spread speed and vanish speed
- there can be twice as many of as in vanilla (20 versus 10)

Just gotta add interactions and pack it with a Sumo Bro, and the fun may be had :)

mirror temple b-side! really happy with how this turned out. the combo of yoshi and theo is really cool with all the item juggling, dismounts, and item spits/eats. might be the hardest level yet? looking forward to the RTA attempts and making the next level!
