Where to go next
Three places worth your click.
01
Game Boy builds and patches: Gen 2 with the clock handed back to the player, plus the Crystal Legacy fork.
02
Small browser utilities that fix things old games got wrong. Starting with a Mario Tennis save patcher.
Long-form writing on backend craft: the systems, the trade-offs and the lessons that only show up in production.
Pokémon Crystal Legacy: Timeless
An RTC-free, MBC5 fork of Pokémon Crystal Legacy.
Crystal Legacy was never designed to run on cartridges without an RTC, so on those it quietly corrupts your save. This patch fixes that, and stacks a bunch of quality-of-life improvements on top. Check it out.
