Super Glitch Bros.
Back
A short time ago I had to go to a family reunion. I brought my laptop and NES ROMS and ROM hacking programs with me. I was messing around with Tile Layer Pro, and I remembered that there's "garbage" data at the top of the ROM when viewing tiles, which represents other things like sounds and level data. So I decided to swap graphic tiles back and forth to make things look messed up. I also edited the tiles directly above the graphic data, which happened to be the music and sound data. Yes, I know what you're thinking. I'm supposed to use a hex editor to do that. Well, scribbling on the tiles that represent the audio data is more fun. :D Additionally, I changed the header from Vertical mirroring to Horizontal mirroring, so that the scrolling looks crazy.
Nothing is changed gameplay-wise, but it's still kinda funny to listen to the crappy music. Here are the results I got for the music:
- Overworld - This one got pretty messed up. Random notes everywhere, and it seems that each instrument channel is going at a different tempo!
- Underground - Not all that messed up, and it doesn't have a lot of messed-up potential anyways. But the good news is that a certain part of the song has a messed up tempo.
- Underwater - Somewhat messed up, but what's really silly about this one is that the music restarts half-way into the song.
- Castle - Didn't turn out too messed up. Must be the note pattern.
- Bonus/Star - Pretty messed up. The drums seem off-beat with the other instruments, due to the slower tempo.
- Death - I liked how this one turned out. Heh heh.
- Game Over - Somewhat messed up, but not as much as I would have liked.
- Flagpole Finish - This one got really messed up. I mean, I somehow even got it to do a Portamento Down on the last note in the song, even though the original song didn't have any Portamentos from what I remember.
- "Your princess..." - I like this one too. It kind of goes along with what I did to Toad. Hee hee.
- "Your quest is over" - I really need to work on this one some more. It's hardly messed up at all. Boo.
Maybe I'll try out one of those Corruptors. Then I'll see if I can uncover more glitchy stuff, and this time, through the gameplay. Yay!
