When I was 8 years old and obsessed with Super Mario World, I discovered videos of the "laser suit" and "Super Secret Area" on YouTube and thought they were legitimately hidden in the game. I quickly learned that those were just hacks made with Lunar Magic, and once I determined that Lunar Magic was just software, and not something that would magically patch my game after I downloaded it to my tablet (Yes, I was actually that dumb), I tried making my own hacks.
I never really got far with hacking them since I sucked at designing levels, but I was still fascinated by the inner workings of the game. That fascination with how old games worked and how I could change them would stick with me and led me to where I am now. |

Only if I can't access my computer. It's not the worst thing in the world but since most forums aren't optimized for mobile devices they tend to be pretty tedious to navigate, especially on longer phones. |

Hiii, I'm PalaceSwitcher (they/them). I spend a lot of my time either programming, making chiptune covers, or digging through NES games and documenting my findings. I love reverse-engineering things and figuring out how they work, and I plan on expanding my knowledge to other systems in the future.
My most noteworthy project is a disassembly of the bootleg port of Super Mario World. It's taught me quite a lot in the 4 years that I've worked on it, and I'm hoping my findings in this game can prove useful one day. That's all I really have to say about myself. This is a really cool site and I'm hoping it can fill the gap that RHDN left. |

CadEditor can edit Tiny Toon's levels, but it doesn't have scripts to do much else. For editing graphics, you have a ton of options, such as YYCHR and Tile Molester, though if you want to change how things like sprites are mapped, you're gonna need to do some reverse engineering.
I can try to look for some stuff when I'm not busy. Keep in mind that stuff like extending the map and adding more levels might require you to move some data around and even expand the ROM if it doesn't have space for it. |
