I’m into the third year of learning how to hack different aspects of the Super Nintendo games “Final Fantasy V”, “Final Fantasy IV” (”FF II”, originally in the US), and “FFVI” (”FFIII” originally in the US) .

My working project notes are mostly collected here. Banner image is a screenshot from “True Final Fantasy 5r-IC”, a romhack by waterga from 2024.
