taught myself lunar magic today to make this

the news has me so Artemis-pilled i've been moonmaxxing by low-key reading wikipedia to boost my lunar aura

SMW Central now accepts hacks for Mario games on NES (SMB 1-3) and GBA (SMA 1-4) plus YI and SMAS, y'all know anyone who wants to moderate hacks for those games ?

DOOM fully rendered in CSS. Every surface is a <div> that has a background image, with a clipping path with 3D transforms applied. Of course CSS does not have a movable camera, so we rotate and translate the scene around the user.

Fun game, played for a bit on my ipad to try and do it quickly/get a PB (got a 0.0016) and to see if the display was any different from my PC (not really). What tripped me up were the very saturated blue, green and pink.

For no reason, here's what Yoshi sounds like eating an enemy in Mario is Missing on PC.

I would love this to exist but folks have been going on about an open source SMW level editor for nearly the entire lifespan of Lunar Magic. There have been numerous talented programmers flow through the scene and yet no alternative has materialized with real potential--just endless lamenting.

i built an entire x86 CPU emulator in CSS (no javascript) you can write programs in C, compile them to x86 machine code with GCC, and run them inside CSS lyra.horse/x86css/

it's been a draining few weeks. the emotional labour of being a community manager and dealing with a bunch of situations (incl harassment) has worn me down, made me less patient/more irritable--which I haven't been able to contain--and my coping mechanism of being productive took me to burnout zone

this is incredibly impressive

Finally got my C3 project done. A much faster ROM loader using USB2SNES. Links in the reply.

My project for this winter's SMWC3 - SNESPride, a Pride Flag renderer for the SNES. Check it out, it was pleasantly painful to build! www.smwcentral.net?p=viewthread...

We've found plenty of keitai freeware games, but "Super Merio" has shown up on multiple devices. As the name suggests, it's a Mario clone. Released in 2001, it's one of the earliest pieces of keitai freeware that we've preserved. It has two sequels (?) and even a spinoff called "Dr. Merio."

"wow this discord situation sucks huh" I type onto the 20 year old web forum I manage that has barely any active users

time to go all the way back to mailing lists

Abandoning self-hosted php forums continue to be a mistake

You a teen? Wanna talk to your friends? Let me scan your face with our app to check (jk it's some software we got from a third party vendor that got integrated). Don't worry about that data leak from October either, we got this now! Also we made a panel of zoomers to hold us accountable. 😃👍

decided to finally watch Dead Space the movie.. I mean Event Horizon, what a trip. i liked it. they don't make bad 90s movies like they used to

in light of today's "The Big Game", it is my pleasure to report that avgn's football rant is highly compatible with laura palmer's theme

started a discord server for smw puzzlers with the angle of doing a puzzle hack jam at some point (maybe this year), if you like puzzles and smw or just want to Observe, feel free to join: smwc.me/1660209

No reason other than why not #smw #romhacking

*revisits ancient youtube dub video* -> learns sham wow guy is running for congress in america

I’ve been taking photos for nearly 20 years sometimes it does psychic damage to look back at some of them from so long ago. Nostalgia a double edged sword

I didn't even know pinscreen animation was a thing, this is very neat

i will finish my hack this year, so help me

😎 Puzzmo Bongo is the game i'm most hooked on

I see Wendy Carlos. I post Wendy Carlos.

god, don’t make Slop box art for your rom hack or fan game (or someone else’s). been down a small rabbit hole on them in the wild since a few caught my attention (a good chunk of them existing as user content on achievement or game db sites).

el instagram de herzog es una de las mejores cosas que me pasó en este último tiempo.

So if you're going to be doomscrolling today, at least make it a journey through decades of community creativity that helped shaped gaming as we know it. Maybe something you made is in here? doomscroll.cx

Happy Hellidays and a Merry Anti-Christmas to you all! The 2025 Cacowards are live. Read about all of this year's best content for Doom. Special thanks to our guest artist, the incredibly talented, @xous54.bsky.social. www.doomworld.com/cacowards/2025

everyone out here talkin about jumping ship from spotify--I jumped years ago and been on Apple Music--but thought I'd still check out qobuz. was sad to see a lot of stuff missing, especially electronic music when I transferred my library+playlists. the service has a lot going for it otherwise.

If you can believe it, Awful Emblem v1.0 has just released! It's real, and finished! It's only been a decade in the making! It's a full-length vanilla+ FE8 romhack with totally unique characters, setting, storyline, and more. Check it out! 🎉🎉🎉 feuniverse.us/t/awful-embl...

as an smw romhacker, where do I begin..

Dealing with some Notable online queerphobe in my IRL/work sphere this week targeting me and others, reminds me of how when I joined a hobbyist community and saw the same shit.

World✨

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

the energy around dram 3 rubbing off on me and I'm working on my own hack again (also it's a less busy work time)

came across the phrase “Kodak poisoning” which pleased me; when people are taking roughly the same picture of the same thing over and over it gets Kodak poisoned

mfw when "kaizo" and "grand poo world" entered into the historical record during UK parliamentary debate

I got down to the point where I realised I simply can't make the cluster bullets interact with custom blocks, lol As compensation, I added the option to make specified map16 tiles to shatter on contact with them I wonder if there's a good way to add more common behaviors, like on/off blocks... +

inspired by a thread I seen: give me a *personal* smw hack level design principle you always follow?

Congrats to all of the new SMWCentral Hall of Famers, and thank you to everyone who helped come together to recognize and showcase these wonderful hacks and creators: www.smwcentral.net?p=hall_of_fame
