I hope that Mario's stunlock abilities are a nod to how it's so easy to stunlock certain bosses in the Mega Man X series. It's still bad boss design, but I'd have a modicum of respect for it if that were the rationale.

That level was kind of neat in way. I liked how everything got darker at one point, showing that you're diving deeper into the ocean. The underground castle idea is pretty cool.

Those shrimp creatures seem like a huge pain, though. Especially that spawner you were fighting.

The shrimp are like the least of your worries in this hack. Just wait until you see what they did to Sniper Joe.

We won't get to be Quick Man permanently until Mega Man CX-4. (Or CX-2, in this case, given what the opening riffed on? Man, I dunno.)

SMRPG Hack - Reserve_22 (2/2)

Here it is, we face a 'unique' boss and see the end of a pretty good hack considering the problems most SMRPG have. Yeah there were a bunch of fights, but they are all fair fights. Sure it is short, but that doesn't count against it because to much of this would overstay its welcome.
Don't think is the last of the SMRPG hacks got another that will be coming soon.

Here we see a level with a cool concept that just isn't particularly fun to play and requires either weird knowledge of the game's engine or accidental discovery.

That Hogwarts level looked so loving awful. I didn't get nearly that far in my attempts at it, and from the look of things I'm glad I didn't. It was way too long with too few powerups and looked like it required you to be on your toes constantly.

No, it makes Ubercharge give you invincibility as well.

Ubercharge always gives you invincibility, what it does is turn it from "one press = use 1 bar = one second of invincibility" to "use 1 bar per second, invincible and can shoot during it".

So today I was toodling around twitch, and in the "retro" category, I found a Russian stream playing a SMB3 hack that looked pretty neat. It looked like it took a bunch of elements from more modern Marios, like the star coins, and the ice power. But as I said, it was a Russian stream, so I have no idea what the hack was. Any ideas?

It might be Mario Adventure, though I could be wrong.

EDIT: On second thought it's probably Super Mario 3Mix.

A little EQ, a touch of reverb, slap on some compression and there. That'll get your dickbutt jiggling.
A romhack for the original Metroid called Rogue Dawn was released recently and it is really fun. FPzero you in particular should give it a go if you haven't yet, being a Metroid fan and all. I've never played the original, but I still know they are breaking all kinds of limitations the original had, and they added a whole bunch stuff, like a map and saves. The art is really good, the level design smart and logical. It feels like a mature 2d metroid, but crammed into a NES cartridge. It is a little rough going until you get your first upgrade, but it really starts to open up after that.

Is the rest of that music from anything? I couldn't tell if it was meant to be some weird Harry Potter adaptation, but it sounds pretty bad. And then the creator decides to use an instantly recognizable Pokemon theme for the boss fight? It's a lot of strange choices.

:siren: Beyond Chaos: Let's Randomize Final Fantasy 6! :siren:



What is this?

Using the Beyond Chaos randomizer, I'm going to bring havoc and destruction to the Final Fantasy 6 you may or may not already know and love. Not only am I utterly destroying it, but I am also then going to attempt to play through it! More specifically, what this randomizer does is it changes nearly every aspect of the game. Playable characters have been swapped around, they have weird starting equipment, they have weird battle commands, enemies have been shuffled around, treasure chests and any other item pickups have all been shifted around, espers may not be teaching you the spells you expect them to, etc. You name it, it's probably not going to be what you expect it to be. Just about the only things that remain unaltered are the major player NPCs, so Kefka is still Kefka, General Leo is still General Leo, so on and so forth. Assisting me with the more in-depth technical details that I should be sharing are Demerine and FeyerbrandX.

When can we expect updates?

I want to try to post one update a week, but I'm also juggling a lot of things at the moment, so bear with me if I miss a week. Also, video lengths will vary somewhere between twenty minutes to just shy of an hour.

I want to try this out!

You totally should, it's real fun! Follow that link put up there to get the randomizer itself, and if you want to follow along with this specific playthrough, you can input this seed: 62..1486343094

I, uh, am not too sure of the formatting of that seed, actually. It may just be 1486343094, but Feyerbrand seems to have gotten it working with the extra crap in front of it too, so hey! Do whatever works!


Table of Contents

In addition to my own series of videos that make up the main content of this LP, co-commentator FeyerbrandX will also be chronicling the things I miss as I blunder through the game I thought I knew. His screenshot mini-updates also happen to be an invaluable source of information that everyone should keep an eye on.

That's my wife leaning over my shoulder wanting to be a part of the rock and roll lifestyle of an lper hanger-on like myself.

Or it could be me, liquidy had to crank up the gain on my mic for this session because I didn't want to listen to my own audio.

But back to the randomizer, just going to say to those playing along with the seed, remember you can see temp party member equipment by selecting equip, hitting left and seeing the whole crews load out. The equipment options are interesting to say the least.
