Code writer and web designer. I hack old games and rarely play them. I like dem colors.
I did an interview about Super Mario Land DX that didn’t end up being published as planned, so I’m sharing it here. Hope you find it interesting! toruzz.com/interview/20...
I'm seeing a lot of confusion, so I'll try my best to clarify what this is about: - I'm building a way to "port" GB/GBC games to the GBA. The end result is a native GBA game - This uses a custom GB to GBA emulator (think 'Classic NES Series' but for GB) + native GBA code
I've hinted at it so much there's no point in keeping it under wraps any longer. For the longest time, I've been working on a way to port GB games to the GBA. What I ended up building is a modified GB to GBA emulator that targets a fantasy console instead - I call it the GB Bridge.

Gotta love seeing similar screenshots to the ones I used for my patch 😄

My colorization patch for #tinytoon adventures DX on #gameboycolor is finally out! (download link in the trailer description) Very much thanks to all for your patience, and a big kudos to @mcconnell.bsky.social , for narrating the thing with all his heart! 🙏 www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Yx-...
Absolutely loving my current dev environment. Working hard to finish this, believe it or not. I hope it'll be worth all the delays.

Just gave my editor a much needed facelift, super happy with the result.
Remember that cool SGB border I made for SML2DX (and never released)? Marc updated his awesome border injector with a beautiful gallery and now you can insert it into your original or DX roms!
And at last... Super Game Border Injector has been updated to v2.0 with a code and UX overhaul and... a border gallery built up with borders made by SGB lovers! www.marcrobledo.com/super-game-b...
Ya está subida la charla que realicé sobre ROM Hacking en @museoarcadevintage.bsky.social , donde se habla de la importancia del ROM hacking para la preservación del videojuego, así como de los proyectos en los que he trabajado. www.youtube.com/watch?v=qT4U...

I've been thinking about how romhack distribution could work in an ideal, post-RHDN world. Right now, there are so many friction points - getting & applying patches is cumbersome for users, and often they don't even know how to deal with ROM versions, patch formats, etc. (1/7)

With Unity screwing indie devs, many people are realizing just how important it is to have open source alternatives like Godot. Remember, open source software often relies on your support. Don't take it for granted.
