Passionately fan-translating the Marmalade Boy games to bring their sweetness to Western fans!

[MarmaladeBoy.SFC @MarmaladeboySfc]

Account for the nonprofit unofficial "Marmalade Boy" games' fan translation project, so they can be known and played by western audiences.

@SpecterDev @ElnTskX3 Sadly, this is happening in almost all scenes. Like you said, effort is not valued anymore. Everything is about quick fame and "backups". Most people are blind to the real core: You need research to find new info, no research without access points means no more in time exploits.

This tiny thing is literally giving me nightmares.

That "2" in the top right corner supposed to be equal.
Top left and bottom right: one hasn't been updated yet, and the other is animation.
Oh, and the "equal" ones? They both finish together with the headache (title) screen.

Not exactly about the translations but still nice:

There are some problems with the intro because this screen has 2 ram passes and the first one does not display properly, but I wanted to give you some comparison with the real gameboy :D

[MarmaladeBoy.SFC @MarmaladeboySfc]

@JabiCaNe Coincido contigo. Y gracias por los ánimos.

[MarmaladeBoy.SFC @MarmaladeboySfc]

Adjusting letters to tiles so they could be properly mapped to save space... Still have the tilemap problem and for some reason this image does the same 2 ram pass like the font (that's why i put 2 title screenshots), hopefully it's solved with proper tilemap

And he is the same one that made all graphics that are currently in the Super Famicom project, even if you haven't seem them all

[MarmaladeBoy.SFC @MarmaladeboySfc]

For the record and clarity, the "Marmalade Boy" design is based on this one that Graphicus made a long long time ago, I edited it a bit to reduce a few extra bytes and inserted it

You can find more of his pixel art here:

@JabiCaNe PD: Se podria romper todo mil veces mas y redirigir todo eso a una nueva direccion para hacerla entera. Pero me supera, es un mal aceptable.

[MarmaladeBoy.SFC @MarmaladeboySfc]

@JabiCaNe Al principio iba a poner Empezar/continuar, pero el espacio era de 20 bytes mas y no reusaba suficientes teselas para entrar despues.

[MarmaladeBoy.SFC @MarmaladeboySfc]

Mind you: Even if no new tools are expected, all game edits and insertions need to be done. That means the current tools might require one or two updates. There is still a long way ahead (including bug fixing) but with this we'll start seeing in-game finished-like displays.

Breaking news:
(In screenshots because there are too many characters for one post.)

I have no idea how many of you are actually here reading my posts lol, so it would be nice if you could leave a comment on this post <3

In any case, thank you to everyone waiting for this!

I tried implementing VWF yesterday and by that I mean I was basically just staring at a bunch of 65c816, not typing a single line of code, and doing this face for 3 hours before going to bed

[MarmaladeBoy.SFC @MarmaladeboySfc]

The current step is to add the tilemap rendering to the decompressed images so they can be edited easily instead of doing puzzle work. After that I will try to make a little trailer with the intro and first text edited.

[MarmaladeBoy.SFC @MarmaladeboySfc]

More decompressed images, among them one with the ghost font that passes before the text display.

[MarmaladeBoy.SFC @MarmaladeboySfc]

Password System is kept from one font to another, so I made a tool with AI to let you see the relation between them, it also serves for those who find an untranslated text in their gameplay testing to see the original one

[MarmaladeBoy.SFC @MarmaladeboySfc]

For now the password system is compatible, and the new font looks very nice

[MarmaladeBoy.SFC @MarmaladeboySfc]

Font for the game, Small Fonts never convince me but it is what it is. Manually created within Tile M**ester tool, directly into the rom to have all space in mind.

Just to prove that my previous message is real XD
