Newish to ROM hack quick questions.

I can't seem to find a lot about a lot of the things i need answered so i'll give this a go sorry this is going to be a lot put onto everyone. So before i get right into it i'm going to get this out of the way i have the latest version of Lunar Magic along side various "addons" if you will like Lips, expand, etc. So things are going great i got a hex editor to edit checkpoints to make you small i get going on adding custom reskinned blocks for muncher, solid blocks, etc. So i think to myself wouldn't it be great to not just load a rom with munchers everywhere or have them stationary in the sky not on anything cause it takes more space up? Well boy to my surprise there's a ton of aspects i've barely delved into myself and wow have i racked my brain up trying to make sense of like 2% of all the stuff i read. So before we get into my overall help lists on stuff my started level iirc was cleaned and expanded so i'd have room to work with stuff getting into a lot of the tools and what not is it like a scraped project? i mean im not overly far into it bit i'd hate to lose/redo all of it.

OKAY now that's out of the way is there any like overly newb friendly guide/tuts that say "here's how to add death block easy so easy my 4 month old made one" style stuff? cause that's a big part of this also recommendations on easy to use or easy to learn tools that expand on ASM or help better yourself to ASM if you know nothing about coding? cause i seen some and it's like trying to follow along and it's going right over my head like if someone came up to you and started explaining quantum physics unless you know that you're probably going to be like WHOA hold up what?

Or should i purely stick to the utmost basics and call it a day? shy of maybe trying to add a death block mainly? cause i want to create something that gets people into it and not just another hack some dude made. plus it's for someone so i really want to put some good effort into it. : / sorry this is a lot i'm low on sleep and had worked today.
:D
much love xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo 4Head and whatnot to the twitch people i'm gonna end it.

...what? Most of us haven't used any of those for years. LIPS was replaced with Floating IPS, Expand got merged into LM, and hex editors are replaced with Asar for all purposes I know of.

Blocktool tutorial
Death block can be made with Blockreator

cause that's a big part of this also recommendations on easy to use or easy to learn tools that expand on ASM or help better yourself to ASM if you know nothing about coding?

There's a bunch of ASM tutorials here.

Do you really need all of that? It's kinda hard to answer your questions when they're buried behind a wall of text. I suspect probably a third question in there, but I can't find it.
