A Yoshi's Island hack I'm working on with some friends

i didn't think "unbelievable hype for a YI hack" was gonna be on my c3 reactions list this year, but here we are.

you and gbreeze are two of my favorite smw creators, can't wait to see the magic and sin you get up to with this project. <3

It's nice to see Yoshi's Island hacking is still alive!

I've never been too interested in that myself, even though i'm a big fan of Yoshi's Island itself, the game is incredible, and i've heard that it has a ton of unexplored mechanics that have huge potential in hacking, so it's nice to see this potential finally being explored!

This seems the kind of creativity focused level design that heavily abuses unintended behaviors on mechanics and interactions, which is really the thing that always calls my attention on hacks!

I'll be sure to keep an eye on this, maybe this could spark some attention to the YI hacking scene!

Thanks for the kind words, everyone!


All the patches will be released once the hack is out (or possibly even earlier if YI hacking suddenly blows up or something).


That's currently beyond the scope of what we can do, I think. But I'm sure that once YI hacking has advanced a bit, we'll get around to working on finer details like that.

Glad everyone enjoyed this little teaser. It's been so much fun working on this hack. Really looking forward to sharing with you all when it's finished, and thanks for all the kind words!

I can't believe Mario is freaking gone.

Jokes aside, this hack looks really fun. I personally am a big fan of collectathons but I understand why the stars and coins are gone. Especially in really hard levels, not getting hit would be a bit too difficult.
