@devurandom@cybre.space I can already use icons for some things, like suits gathered, cards earned, etc. There just isn't much space on screen for other things, like names (for characters, districts, properties, etc), venture/chance card descriptions, and a few other things.
I am using a disassembly of the game so I can make code edits where needed, but I don't know everything that's possible on the SNES or all of its limitations, either. (This is actually my first time doing a project like this... ^^; )
In all honesty, I'll probably have to come up with a solution for the 8x8 text the game uses beyond just using the game's 8x8 font. There isn't enough room on screen for everything in a lot of places, like the HUD, menus, system dialogs, and so on. I don't know if there is enough free VRAM space for a variable-width small font, either.
I make music either on a computer, or by whistling...
I'm afraid of calling myself a musician, especially when there are actual trained musicians who are amazing and can make beautiful music out there on Mastodon and elsewhere...
I don't belong in a group with people like that...
I already forgot what all the different unlabelled memory addresses in my disassembly were for... maybe I should have labelled them...
Also, I'm sorry that I'm probably using music terminology completely wrong while I'm describing things. I never had any formal training because my parents couldn't afford an instrument and I never joined choir because my parents saw I was good at math and pushed me extremely hard to do that instead of music...
Probably isn't very surprising, though, since I played my Game Boy a /lot/, for most of my grade school and middle school years...
Listening to the Tetris Attack (Game Boy) soundtrack with @Xkeeper a few days ago, and realizing... My music compositional style was really, really heavily influenced by that soundtrack, and other GB/C games that I had. Short, repeating tracks, a melody line, an accompaniment/countermelody, a bassline, and sometimes a "drum" that's usually just a white noise channel acting like a hat or snare...
... I guess it actually was a cool seed, @tiden. :P
Still streaming Zelda 3 Randomizer! I'll be doing a key-sanity seed next~
Streaming some Zelda 3 Randomizer runs soon:
Poly trans cuddlefloof programmer and gamedev(?). I love poking around in and reverse engineering old games. I'm also super shy and have horrible anxiety, so ... please be nice...
I don't mind if you follow request, but if I don't know or recognize you, please send me a message so I know who you are. #nobot
