About
Began ROM hacking in the summer of 1997, but didn’t release anything until 1998: Final Fantasy Epic, a Gauntlet hack and Dragoon X, a Dragon Warrior hack. In 1999, he decided to remake Dragoon X in all aspects, releasing Dragoon X Omega in 2000.
A subsequent patch was released in 2003 and work began on its sequel several months later, this time teaming up with the ROM hacker Thaddeus. Dragoon X Omega II was released August 2006, but perhaps this was premature considering the amount bugs left in the game. The final revision (Final 2) was released in June 2008.
In early 2007, he created an assembly hack of Recca and two hacks for the Gameboy games Castlevania: Legends and Belmont’s Revenge. He also collaborated with satsu to translate the Famicom version of Mugen Senshi Valis. He has also written several documents. GBATemp’s profile: http://gbatemp.net/members/sliver-x.127275/.
