    Tiny Toons Adventures DX 2 (Montana's Movie Madness) for Game Boy : colorization project

    In the process of creating a colorization patch for #tinytoon (Montana's movie madness) on #gameboycolor, I'll create a trailer within the next few months. I need a voice for Montana Max (maybe a girl with a raspy voice?) If you're interested in doing this, please DM me. 🥰

    No, the character's portrait would appear. Which is one more difficulty I had to overcome, and the reason why the portraits go back to black (I dynamically change the palettes at the results) 😉

    Tiny Toons Adventures DX 2 (Montana's Movie Madness) for Game Boy : colorization project

    New video of my #tinytoon colorization patch for #gameboycolor released!This one shows how I used Hblank to display more palettes than the GBC theorically can. While some compromises had to be made, that "TV show" atmosphere actually goes well with dark silhouettes at the beginning. 😊

    Tiny Toons Adventures DX 2 (Montana's Movie Madness) for Game Boy : colorization project

    SO thrilled I could use Hblank to change palettes n°1 and n°2, so they could be updated in a single refresh. This gave me more combinations, although compromises still had to be made, and Fifi (whose face was overlapping several tiles) had to be redrawned. Look for yourself! 1787780804 To make...

    Too much overlay for Buster led Elmyra's face to be erased. Can you spot the little trick I used to correct that? Also, not to be disrespectful to original artists, but her face was a bit messy, and her leg a bit too chunky, so I took the liberty to slightly redraw her.

    Tiny Toons Adventures DX 2 (Montana's Movie Madness) for Game Boy : colorization project

    Yes, these sprites are very large and detailed. If you were to use them ingame, there would be shimmering everywhere. I actually had used more overlays at first (beeper should be red and orange), but that would make calamity's tail disappear. So I decided to make him a priority, considering he...

    Tiny Toons Adventures DX 2 (Montana's Movie Madness) for Game Boy : colorization project

    A smal artistic change I allowed myself to do here was to add shadows to Beeper & Calamity, so they'd look like they're chasing in front of the movie screen. Sprites were complex, and I had to restrain myself because they'd be sharing a screen with Elmyra later, but it's a lot of overlays...

    Translation Riivolution patch: Ikenie No Yoru English translation for Wii (100%)

    Hello! If you want to use WBFS format, the easiest way is to select your patched iso on Wii Backup Manager, then "transfer" it to WBFS. It will also split files that go beyond the 4Gb limit automatically. Please find a screenshot below. Yours truly.

    Really, haven't I spoiled you enough already? Went back to work today, so here's a little preview of the theater intro scene in #tinytoon DX 2 for #gameboycolor, before I come back with more!

    Tiny Toons Adventures DX 2 (Montana's Movie Madness) for Game Boy : colorization project

    How foolish of me to have thought Hblank would give me enough cycles to change palettes on the fly... Anyway, I've managed to save two palettes for portraits, so this result shouldn't change so much when my colorization patch for #tinytoon 2 is released! Below are the references I used #gameboycolor

    #Plucky 's mini game for #tinytoon DX II on #gameboycolor gave me an unexpected hard time : this is the only level so far that doesn't update the screen, probably because the scenery is white, so I had to create an extra step. But it helped me do that fine horizon line, based on screen position! 😍

    Tiny Toons Adventures DX 2 (Montana's Movie Madness) for Game Boy : colorization project

    Just a little update on my #tinytoon colorization patch for #gameboycolor. I'm currently doing a lot of coding that doesn't necessarily translate into visible results, but here's my completed Bookworm's scene. Had to restrain myself with shadows and overlay, because Sweetie kept ending up legless! 😆

    Tiny Toons Adventures DX 2 (Montana's Movie Madness) for Game Boy : colorization project

    I'm still working on it on a daily basis, but my progress aren't really obvious, because I'm thoroughly making each level load custom tilesets, have their own palettes, that kind of things. A lot of difficulties come from the fact that the game has a lot of portraits, so you have to identify a...

    I'm French, as anyone who's ever heard me speak English knew right away! 😅

    If you're curious about the creating process of #tinytoon on #gameboycolor, I got interviewed by @blog2geeks.bsky.social, and we talk about it while watching a comparison. It's French, but you can activate English subtitles. They do the job most of the time. Have a nice Sunday!
