Today I beat Super Mario 64... with all 120 Stars. And I did it, as Birdo, on a real Nintendo 64, with no performance issues.

Now THIS is the kind of character swap hack I love. I'm so fucking tired of "Luigi instead" editions of Mario games, get that shit outta here, even if you give Luigi his higher jump and worse traction, it's still overdone and boring.

Birdo does indeed have egg shooting mechanics in this game. You have to press L to activate it, otherwise you're using Mario's moveset. In Egg shooting mode, you can press R and Birdo will attempt to auto aim. It's not going to do anything to bosses ( though it does seem to stun Wiggler ) but it makes short work of small enemies and boxes, and I discovered way too late in the game that your eggs can collect coins. That would have made those last few levels 100 coin challenges so much easier... Birdo also has unique animations and voice clips, a lot of character hacks don't go that far.

It's not just that, but the game is improved in other subtle ways too. steering the owl in Whomp's fortress seems smoother, and you no longer have to hold A to grab onto ceilings. She moves faster when clinging to ceilings too. And there's an indicator for interacting with signs and NPCs. No more awkwardly punching at those bob-omb buddies.

This was a very fun romp ( aside from Rainbow Ride and Tick-Tock-Clock, fuck those levels ) and the author intends to make an original Birdo adventure too. I look forward to that and hope it runs on real hardware.

I really hope we see more like this, characters from the Mario universe we don't normally consider for a playable role, with unique abilities for them. I just don't want any more characters who are essentially Mario but with slightly altered properties, otherwise what's even the point?

There's a pretty cool Sonic in Mario 64 mod that works on my N64 and is pretty faithful to Sonic Adventure too but... man, Sonic is just not built for those Bowser levels, waaaay too fast. So I do appreciate the effort there.

That said... Peach doesn't kiss Birdo at the end, this modder is a coward.

If you want to check this hack out for yourself, download the patch here, and use a BPS patcher to get it working: https://romhacking.com/hack/super-birdo-64

Now if I could have my own wish, give me Geno in Mario 64. Maybe his thing could be more projectiles and getting more coins out of enemies if he times his attacks right.

This came to me in an early morning queer haze

Kissing my medics good morning (I am your husband heavy and I love you)

#tf2 #team fortress 2 #heavymedic #i know its super annoying for everyone when the sole medic on the team keeps pocketing heavies so as a heavy main i will say this.#to the medics in the chat: i dont expect you to pocket me and in fact you shouldn't. i suck. but! if you would it would be cool and gay and #and i will kiss you abd love you and give you yummy food and protect you like my life depends on it i will be your meat shield because you #are amazing incredible for picking medic despite the horrors. i will do everything in my power to help u. but don't pocket me i suck #i meant for that to be more meaningful and like giving advice but it got gay. but i meant all of it #when i see a medic healing me i immediately switch to shield mode my life is no longer mine i exist to protect the beautiful man behind me #thank you medics👍🏽 if u play medic i hope you have a wonderful day today everyday 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽❤️❤️#edit: i am gayer for heavy than i am for medic- but since i main heavy i am automatically attracted to medic and so this shitpost was born #so many people that play medic are apparently gay for heavy...... i feel so seen and understood

As always, this is probably the Spirk brainworms, but it's interesting to see the change in body language between Kirk and Spock in Amok Time. When Spock tells Kirk about the Pon Farr, not only is Spock nervously rubbing his hands together in the same way Kirk does when he's thinking, but he is moving around the room versus Kirk who stands mostly still. (My choice of clips aside, lol. Bear with me, I spent over an hour on the web weave post. I will be lazy about my gifmaking now).

Spock has come undone so badly that not only are his emotions breaking through, he can no longer physically remain still. Any stoicism and restraint is going out the window. Spock is as unsettled as a storm, and Kirk is the still, calm center of it. It feels like a reversal given how the two characters are set up to be opposites--Spock as calm/logical/Vulcan vs Kirk as impulsive/emotional/Human--but in reality it's more like Spock is off balance so Kirk's stability becomes even more highlighted in the contrast.

And Kirk, for once, moves his hands to his face and touches his mouth when he is lost in thought. It's an interesting acting choice to make when so much of this episode is centered around communication of need vs the shame of one's need/desire vs the use of secrecy and ritual to avoid confronting it all. To suddenly make the lips/mouth the object of worry, when one uses the mouth to communicate verbally or to kiss another.... It certainly brings attention to itself by deviating from Kirk's usual behavior and highlights Spock's nervous hands as a result.

#star trek tos #amok time #spock #jim kirk #spirk #i would've posted this last night but i decided i'd wait until i could make gifs #what's the point of a pocket computer if it won't play an .avi file in its native video app to enable a quick gif smh 😔#trek meta

sometimes the funny guy armor doesn't work

#undertale #sans #myart #mans gotta be careful he's like pocket flavor but for genres #he can bugs bunny his way outta anything as long as he plays and looks the part but the guy also has a boston accent so #whenever he wears anything fancy he's gotta play it twice as goofy or the scene turns into a gangster movie #or maybe this is the king mtt ending and he just half got out of an assassination attempt. whichever you prefer #blood cw

#poll #bad history #no Baylie Carson you cannot be 'she/they Boleyn'#you are a nonbinary actor playing a cis female 'character.' because she's not a character. she's a real person #who was a cis woman #with no known evidence of liking other women. ergo based on current scholarship...she was not queer #and it's cool I think! more trans and NB actors SHOULD play cis characters! god knows the reverse happens often enough!#but. yeah.#interestingly the pocket thing was a stolen and misrepresented bit of worldbuilding from another author #who was very clear- when the debate came to her attention -that it was fictional and she made it up #(it was from Alix E. Harrow's The Once and Future Witches)#but Forster blocked everyone who pointed this out and deleted all contradicting comments

I really liked that dryad boon. A shame the entire team was ✨half-dead✨ when I got it~ A real shame I hadn't saved in forever~ A REALLY REAL SHAME I THOUGHT A SMALL PEAK UNDER THE ELFSONG TAVERN BEFORE BED WOULDN'T HURT

It. It was a very long day that day.

On the bright side, finally had the chance to use up all those fireball scrolls

This is very inspired by @minnesota-fats post about Danny being Bruce Wayne's clone (which has been rotting in my brain for two days) but an au where danny isn't just Bruce Wayne's clone, but also not fully a ghost.

both ideas can be used separately honestly, the idea just came to me while thinking about the bruce wayne clone idea, and a lot of this idea is just "danny without his ghost powers. i might probably make a part two that delves into him being bruce wayne's clone.

Hear me out.

A Danny Fenton who has the ghost sense and the fangs and the pointed ears and the scary eyes and an increase ecto-essence, but does not have the ability to "go ghost". His accident occurred when he pressed the "on" button on the outside of the portal, and the button electrocuted him due to faulty wiring. He ends up miraculously surviving but not without some new additional abilities (and electricity-based trauma).

Since Danny no longer has a built-in alter ego with the invert wardrobe to match, he doesn't see the point to take ghosts back to the ghost zone. What the hell can he do anyways? All he has is a cosmetic add-in, a lower body-temperature with an impressive ability to hold his breath longer than a human realistically should, and a built-in ghost detector. Not very helpful if you ask him.

That is, up until he goes into the lab after his parents catch a relatively harmless ghost and sees them vivisecting it. He's horrified. He thought his parents were using hyperbole when he said they'd tear them apart molecule by molecule.

(Granted, he also believed that ghosts were unfeeling up until he saw this random ghost being absolutely terrified for its existence on the table.)

After an argument over his parents harming the ghost, Danny goes back up to his room and refuses to leave, not even for dinner. Later that night after his parents went to sleep, Danny steels his resolve and sneaks back down into the lab and releases the ghost back into the ghost zone.

This happens a handful of times, until, finally, frustrated, Danny tells the latest captured ghost to tell anyone inside that if they even think about coming through, he'll capture them and bring them back to the zone himself. It's for their own safety.

The ghost agrees, and goes back inside. Danny steals a "failed" thermos from his parents' stash of weapons. The next time that a ghost shows up, its the lunch lady from episode one. Danny manages to defeat her without being seen, but knows that if there's gonna be consistent daytime ghost attacks then he can't base his luck around fighting without witnesses.

So he fashions himself with a makeshift outfit. This really only consists of an old, nondescript hoodie and a plain black face mask. Its the best thing he can do at short notice, however. Later, for his nighttime ghost fighting, his outfit is only slightly better.

He considered using one of his parents' lab suits. But white sticks out at night and the material doesn't protect you from road burn. His outfit is pretty homemade, with knee and elbow pads under his clothes and multiple layers. A long sleeve shirt over a hoodie over a black denim vest he found on sale. He later on manages to make brass knuckles ghost-proof and manages to stitch them into his gloves. (he gets very good at sewing).

His favorite part of the entire outfit, is a Casey Jones-style full-face mask he found while thrifting. It allows him better breathability than the face mask he was using (calling Rule Of Cool law here), and he can use his scary eyes to make him look more intimidating. His gloves, his mask, and his thermos are the things he carries around with him constantly, and, later on, wears baggier clothing to hide the fact that he's wearing knee and elbow gear under his clothes.

Did I mention he has long hair? Danny has long hair (because GNC danny ftw, it goes past his shoulders) that he braids back. it's a bit sloppy but it keeps his hair out of his face well enough. He takes the fenton creep stick with him.

(He and Bruce have, ultimately, a more lean build than a bulky one. It helped Bruce with his Brucie Wayne persona big time when he had to look like a pretty skinny boy, he uses body language, optical illusion, and body armor to make himself look bulkier as batman)

He still goes by the name Phantom. He still has a bitter rivalry with his parents, who have no idea that its him. They think he's probably some other ghost with beef with the other ghosts (he still triggers their ghost sensors), and still want to capture him.

He doesn't talk around the living. He doesn't have any fancy voice changer and dropping his voice hurts and ultimately, he just uses ASL if he ever has to talk in front of people. The ghosts know his voice at night, but not during the day.

He hardly talks to the living. He avoids them like the plague actually. When he defeats a ghost and there's an audience, he barely sticks around to have a nice friendly chat. He tries to get away as soon as possible. He's paranoid over people finding out who he is. He doesn't have that ghost form to fall back on here.

Oh god this is getting so long, so i'll post another part soon.

Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 Part 4.5 (Dani interlude) Part 5 Part 6 Part 7 Part 7.5 (Dan Interlude) Part 8

#danny phantom #danny phantom au #danny fenton is not the ghost king #dc x dp #dp crossover #danny fenton is a clone #dpxdc #his mask is casey jones inspired because i think its sick as fuck #it looks like a skull kinda and i think it plays into the whole 'ghost fighter' thing #his jacket has some kind of stitching on the back that's ghost like #he has a cartoon ghost stitched into his breast pocket
