Future Projects

I have more projects than I could reasonably complete in a lifetime. This is a place where I write down my dream projects for "some day," so that I don't forget them.

Kanji Radical Lister

Pass in a list of Japanese words you know. It will list all the unique kanji you know, and the radicals within each kanji.

Status: in progress, not actively maintained. Actually organizing the data has been the hardest part so far.

Text Hook for ROMs

For certain selected games, create a text hook so that you can copy/paste the text that appears in dialogue windows. Main purpose would be for Japanese learning.

Status: not started. Would have to be game specific since I don't know where the text is written to in every game.

Restoring Kanji to Pokemon games

Pokemon FRLG, RSE, and DPPt do not have kanji. However, future games in the series (LGPE, ORAS, BDSP) do have kanji in the scripts. I would like to restore kanji to the games to make it easier to read. Combined with the text hook, this could be great for language learning.

Status: not started. This would be pretty big and probably game-specific. Also, tragically, there is no kanji for HGSS.

Pokemon Hash Function

Create a function that hashes an arbitrary input to produce a Pokemon.

Status: not started. Haha. Wouldn't this be funny? One day!

Chao Migration

Migrate Chao saves between Dreamcast, Gamecube, Gameboy Advance, Steam, for maximum Chao mobility in the Chao-verse.

Status: Good luck with that. I'd probably start by seeing how I can move between GBA and GC because those are supposed to be able to move between each other. Steam requires new fun modding skills I don't have.

Super Fashion Dress Up

Re-do the dress-up game to have a different interface making it easy to swap between types of clothes, tag how much each piece costs, track cost of outfit.

Status: I have the base dress-up game and not much else.

Expand vanillaJS Game

Expand on fighting. Make enemies move. Add cutscene logic. Probably refactor the logic.

Status: Paused.

Ice Path graph theory

How does placement of rocks in ice path affect potential exit points?

Status: Not started.
