I was trying to make this work comfortablely an enjoyable everywhere and anytime. AND CONVENIENT.

After balancing and doing some tests, I think this is going to make a fit being a perfect way to experience Earthbound on cellphones. (sorry IOS :/)

As mentioned earlier, AI helped me a lot.

But it's not about this, it's about what everyone had done to keep this game alive and welcome loved ones

See the credits, see the developers, acknowledgements, and remember those names with a warm hug!

SO, LETS KEEP GOING

THANK YOU EVERYONE, AND HAVE FUN.

I want to thank everyone who has shown interest in this modification, chatted with me in the comments, shared ideas, made requests, asked questions... WOW! It's so awesome to share this project with you all and see how much you're enjoying and being curious!

If you guys don't want me to share updates here, just let me know! I don't want to spam anything!

ANYWAY, let's keep going!

VERSION 3.6 BABY!

NEW CO-OP FEATURES!

Independent Exploration: Both players can now explore different rooms independently!

Simultaneous Battle Commands: Both players can select their actions simultaneously using separate battle menus.

Improved Shared Inventory: Regular item pickups can be shared, while important quest items remain unique. Extra items are sent to Escargo.

Improved Co-op Battles: If one player is defeated, they can return to the overworld with 15% HP while the other continues fighting.

Shared Story Progress: Both players share campaign progression without repeating completed quest dialogue. (almost!)

New Autosave System: Automatically saves after entering new areas, passing through doors, and winning battles. (its kinda bugged visualy, but Works!)

Support Monkey: An optional cosmetic monkey companion can follow P1 around!

And... more little things!

This project is still experimental and may contain bugs, especially during independent exploration from different areas. If some weird things happen, try despawning Mess pressing "Select" or disable COOP on Gameplay Menu ;) (THE MULTIPLAYER MODE HATE DEALING WITH STAIRS)

THANK YOU!

Hey everyone! Sorry about the big text right here.

Today, I want to share with you a project of mine: a hybrid and modified port of EarthBound, one of the most incredible RPGs I've ever played in my life, originally released for the SNES in 1994.

This version makes the ROM natively compatible with Windows, Linux, and Mac. All you need is your own original USA-region ROM of the game, place it in the project's specific ROM folder, and launch the executable for your specific OS in each folder.

I invite you to have a modernized experience in Brazilian Portuguese (for those who are Brazilian, just like me!) and English (the original language of this version) of this INSANE game, with some quality-of-life improvements to make the game more enjoyable by today's standards.

The project has some extremely important foundations created by the community, such as Brian Pugh, legendary!! Visit the acknowledgments page to see everyone involved!!

The game features a save state system (standard these days), rewind and frame acceleration, a Chapter Selection between cities, a new feature that allows you to run, "Wheretogo?/Onde vou?", which reminds you of the next objective of your main quest, compatibility with all controllers + button customization, mouse interactions, resolution up to 4K Widescreen and 60FPS, and more!! Everything is managed through a menu accessed by pressing F1! F2 and F3 (both also adapted for controllers) also feature the save systems! Fuzzy Pickles!

There's also a God Menu for those who like testing things or need a particular item.

ANYWAY

One of the biggest, if not THE BIGGEST FEATURE OF THIS PROJECT, is the possibility of playing EarthBound in COOP! That's right! Local multiplayer!

Two players simultaneously! Wow!

I want to emphasize that this is still an experimental mod, with some broken features and bugs. I've never seen an implementation of this scale in the game, so BE PATIENT.

COOP mode is activated in the "Gameplay" Menu. From there, the second player can press Start on the controller they want to use and confirm their Spawn. Right after that, the second player controls Mess (That's right!), a copy of Ness with different color patterns! You can change some color patterns by pressing "R3"! ("L3" teleports to Player 1)

Both Player 1 and Player 2 can enter individual battles in split-screen or participate in the same fight!

Both can interact with NPCs, objects, enter and leave places, and explore the entire map they're on, separately or together.

While one player opens their menus, which are individual for each player, talks to NPCs, etc., the game doesn't freeze waiting for the other Player. They can separate without any problems.

Below is the GitHub link for you to download and test it!

Thank you very much, and I look forward to your feedback and testing!!

Unless I'm wrong, earthbound went for $60 USD back in the day, which is $128 today. I know it was that expensive because it came with a strategy guide, but I can't imagine spending so much on a game not part of a series I'm already familiar with. I was born in 2000 and bought the game for $10 on the WiiU eShop, and that was after hearing how much it was praised online. So to those who bought it in-box before it was a classic, what made you want to pick it up?

I do believe it was a “Master and Pawn” situation like most believe but that it’s in reverse.

Essentially, Porky was the one doing all the work and was the one pulling the strings since Giygas was an incoherent mess by the end.

I’ve always believed that Porky NEVER saw Giygas as his “master” and that he simply viewed them as a tool to get petty revenge on Ness and co.

Listen to it here or on the Youtube channel!

The Chosen Four escaped from Ellay Town and made it safely back to Magicant, lucky to be alive and not telepathically enslaved by the evil Giygas! Out of the frying pan they may be, little do they know they’re jumping headlong into fire… dragon fire, that is! Remember “Ninten’s dragon” from way back in episode 6? Looks like it somehow, mysteriously got free of its rather wide and quite-easy-to-remove leash, and now it’s wreaking havoc all over Queen Mary’s magical candy queendom!

As Ninten battles the creature alone, a reflection of everything “selfish, craven, and cruel” in his own heart, Ana no less wrestles with her feelings for the monster that is Ninten and his rotten attitude, but with a bit of help from the gracious Queen, now a little more lucid thanks to the melodies they found before (well, just a little bit anyway), maybe they can both emerge victorious!

Will Ana be able to pick one stuffed animal (just one, please!) from Queen Mary’s magnificent menagerie? Will they finally be spared the tortures of five big sundae desserts in a row (of course they will, thanks to the Queen’s new failsafe mnemonic device, guaranteed to work… probably)? Will this episode make season two pass the Bechdel test with flying colors (uh… yeah, I guess not this time, sorry folks…)? Find out on this week’s episode of… The Podcast Against Giygas! No crying until the ending.

This video shows some different types of interaction, including the battle system!

most of you? the opposite? idk, that’s why I’m asking

Unfortunately i had to remove the background of the image due to

I know he can time travel so the point about how many years happened in between both games is irrelevant, but still, how did giygas go from tall ori on a saiyan pod into an eldritch god of evil? Is there an explanation for it or something? I played both games and couldnt really figure out why

I decided to make this trailer for a TF2/GMod map I already showed off last year here.

I thought I'd share it with the fandom again has been improved over the years with new features and side content, like the Pizza interior and TF2-based sprites, etc.
Join community servers like Samwiz1's or LazyPurple's to play this map with other people for the best experience! Alternatively, follow the instructions in the Workshop description to play this map on a private server with your Steam friends.
There's so much to explore and screw around with compared to other maps, so give this map a try.
