October 10th, the release of a Mario and Sonic Fangame called "Sonic Boll"
It has been going on for many years, many changes.
The game and the community helped me flesh out as a person and becoming an artist, I wouldn't be here without it.
#art #supermario #sonicthehedgehog
Sonic Boll is officially 15 years old! To celebrate the occasion, I made a ROM hack of SMW (my first one, actually) that recreates the first level.
Thanks to @bolldeluxe.bsky.social for their hard work, and check out Sonic Boll at boll-team.itch.io!
5 DAYS REMAIN.
UNTIL THE FINAL LIE UNVEILS.
HAS IT REALLY BEEN 15 YEARS ALREADY?
YOU MUST HAVE MISSED ME FOR SO, SO LONG.
You should be smiling, too! You're going to be free, and let everyone else that was trapped down here by that... Machine, and its rusty old engine, to be free.
Boll Deluxe 2.1.5.2 Old Engine has released. What, of course the version number is correct! You're speaking nonsense.
This fixes some major issues with the base release and houses a few surprises.

The NET.jade experiment has concluded. Thanks for participating! While there were some technical issues, the REAL reason it closed is that we have made the decision to make original characters. We will rehost NET.jade some later date and totally expect these new RADICAL characters to be featured!
Patch has been released to fix the weird crash on launch, please redownload!

Does it brighten up your day?
