Hi, folks. I'm still working in Ganbare Aeron, my biggest SMW hacking project, so far.

I just got hit hard by real life stuff lately, sorry!

I'll be judging SMW Central's Chocolate Level Design Contest #8 very soon, as well.

Good luck to all participants! Cheers!

Here's a big announcement for Ganbare Aeron. Much like Wakana's 0# Iggy's Castle Pub, I'll be accepting other people's OC to populate Circo Porto Carnival, as long as there enough palette space available (60 colors are available atm).

Rules and details can be found here:

After 1 year of not drawing , here's my half dragon OC, Naomi Heavenward.

While there are some flaws, like I deliberately hiding one of the arms and the lack of a dynamic pose, I'm quite happy with the result.

Sometimes, the most important thing is to finish a drawing rather than perfecting it...

After so much time, I'm returning into working in Ganbare Aeron. I'll need to replay the whole game to see if my level design sensibilities have changed too much, before working in the final level again.

Meanwhile, have this image of the (slightly) expanded intro story sequence.

The Found Levels featuring Aeron has been released. A really tough short SMW hack, filled with scrapped ideas from other projects of mine, including Ganbare Aeron, all packaged in a single wacky cool adventure.

Check it out here: www.smwcentral.net?p=viewthread...

New submap for my upcoming hack: The Found Levels featuring Aeron. @alexsmw.bsky.social made the entire submap, while I'm the one responsible for the sketches, level names and Bomberman icons.

Probably the last level for The Found Levels. Not sure. I just thought it would be funny to design a level around the Battle Mode background from Super Bomberman 2. 😅

Ahoy!

Colored version of this old drawing I've made in 2023.

My shinobi OC using summer clothes.

It was a lot of work to clean the drawing itself and there may be some rough spots, but I'm satisfied. Maybe in the future, I'll do a version with shading and better colors.

High quality version of the artwork used in the title screen.

New title screen of my upcoming small scale SMW Hack: The Found Levels featuring Aeron.

Fanart of Aeron made by a close friend of mine.

Working in a new small scale project, while my creativity block in Ganbare Aeron isn't gone.

No cutscenes or elaborate lore this time. Just a small level collection. That's all!

(The level in the image might look familiar for some of you.)

Implemented a new thing in Ganbare Aeron. Dialogue boxes can be interrupted at any given time. Special thanks to TheXander and @russianmansmwc.bsky.social for lending me a modification of the b4vwf patch.

nice Boxman Tano reference. 😅

Took me longer than expected, but it's finally here:
www.smwcentral.net?p=section&a=...

Embark on a wacky extremely tough journey to defeat the source of evil behind The Dimensional Castle.

What dangers are awaiting Aeron this time?

relationship goals.

(just kidding. here's a scene without any context, lol)

Thanks @russianmansmwc.bsky.social for the Any Sprite Football Movement.

Nothing better than a fucked up obstacle in a Standard Very Hard SMW hack.

Recently, in my C3 thread, I announced to be working in a Deluxe Version of The Dimensional Castle Starring Aeron.

I plan to release this mini adventure once the QLDC3 event is over, with the hopes that people will have fun with while they wait for Ganbare Aeron. #SMWHack #Aeron #Romhacking

WIP. Some intense autoscrolling in the Subway Horror, one of the attractions of the carnival park of Ganbare Aeron. Survive a fast subway filled with ghosts and beasts.

For now on, I plan to showcase only this. Don't want to spoil too much of the fun stuff.

Finally finished Brandish 2: Renewal. A great game, but it feels slower and worse to play compared to the SNES version. Mouse + directional arrows didn't felt like the incredible experience I saw some people online talking.

Some NPCs from the final level of Ganbare Aeron, my last big SMW Hack.
