Hi, I'm Marc! I am a video game enthusiast, Game Boy developer and hacker.<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/kZ_8ZHAWZ7A" allowfullscreen="true" frameborder="0"></iframe>After releasing Mega Man World 5 DX, I am currently working in a modification of Game Boy Donkey Kong that converts it into a Game Boy Color game.• • •I grew up with video games like many others and to this day they are still a big part of my life.Due to this I am deeply committed to the preservation of video game history. For me, this means more than just preserving copies of every game; it involves adapting classic games to ensure they remain accessible and enjoyable for as many people as possible.For that reason, many years ago, I decided to contribute to the video game scene by translating games from Japanese to English and offering improved versions of classic games that deserved a second chance.Important projects I have worked on:<ul><li><a href="https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/7413/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Mega Man World 5 DX</a></li><li><a href="https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/5281/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Dr. Mario DX</a></li><li><a href="https://www.romhacking.net/translations/6236/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Mobile Golf - English translation</a></li><li><a href="https://www.romhacking.net/translations/6297/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Samurai Kid - English translation</a></li><li><a href="https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/4051/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Donkey Kong Country GBA color restoration</a></li><li><a href="https://www.romhacking.net/community/4536/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">more...</a></li></ul>In particular, the launch day of <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXVBHJNZZYw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Mega Man World 5 DX</a> (a modification that converts the famous video game into a colorized version that runs on real hardware), was one of the best days of my life. It was the most challenging project I have ever faced outside my professional career. After two years of hard work, the public reception couldn't have been better. Not only for the love received from fans of the character but also because of its unexpected mentions by international leading figures in retrogaming and appearances in big YouTube channels.Once Mega Man World 5 DX was completed and with the knowledge gained, I decided to start updating another great Game Boy game that still lacks color: Donkey Kong. A titanic project with which I received instant love and encouragement from all the fans.It was then that the idea of starting this Patreon came about. In fact, a handful of people and friends suggested it to me, willing to support this project and future ones, stating that I had nothing to lose by trying.• • •To avoid misunderstandings about the purpose of this Patreon, I would like to clarify certain points:<ul><li>The rewards for supporting will only be blog posts with exclusive WIP images, news, and development details.</li><li>There will be no private betas for patrons. I consider myself a perfectionist and wouldn’t feel good about publishing something unfinished, not to mention the risk of possible leaks.</li><li>No requests nor comissions will be accepted, independent of the contribution amount.</li><li>The work done here stems from passion not monetary gain. This is not designed to be a full time career for myself.</li></ul>In other words: this Patreon is just for those who wish to support with little donations.Everything will remain the same as it has been until now: patches will be completely free and available to everyone without distinction.• • •All projects that are being worked on are fan created modifications, no copyright or trademark infringement is intended.I am not affiliated nor endorsed by any of the companies that own the trademarks.Modifications are released as patch files that do not contain copyrighted data.
