<b>Clownacy</b> (sometimes mistaken as <b>Clownancy</b>) is a [[Tech Member]] of [[Sonic Retro]], and Staff member of the [[Sonic_Stuff_Research_Group|SSRG]].
 
 
==History==
 
Clownacy began lurking after being lead to Sonic Retro by YouTube videos demonstrating modifications of Sonic titles on an assembly level. Discovering the [[SCHG How-to:Guide|SCHG 'how-to' guides]] not long after, he took up creating bugfixed, 'definitive versions' of [[Sonic_the_Hedgehog_(16-bit)|<i>Sonic 1</i>]] and [[Sonic_the_Hedgehog_2_(16-bit)|<i>Sonic 2</i>]]. In the years following, his interest drifted from hack production to general programming. He eventually joined Sonic Retro, where he spent his [[Trial Member|trial period]] responding to users in the {{LinkRetro|topic=10880|title=<i>Basic Questions & Answers</i> topic}}, and creating 'how to' guides.
 
 
 
From then, he went on to create several more guides, refine the [[Sonic Retro on GitHub|Git disassemblies]], and, later on, create an enhanced version of <i>Sonic 1</i>'s [[sega:SMPS|SMPS]] 68k sound driver: the Sonic 2 Clone Driver v2, which was a replacement for the aged, but still commonly used, Sonic 2 Clone Driver.
 
 
 
He was promoted to Tech Member on the 29th of July 2014, just over a year after joining.
 
 
 
In mid-August of the same year, he produced an upgraded version of [[Project Sonic 1: Two-Eight]], sporting a rebase to the modern Git disassembly, bug-fixes, optimisations, and restored debug features. This was uploaded to the Git repository as a branch of the <i>Sonic 1</i> disassembly.
 
 
 
==Today==
 
Clownacy remains a Tech Member on Sonic Retro and a Pro Member on [[Sonic Stuff Research Group|SSRG]]. He can occasionally be found on the [irc://irc.badnik.net/SSRG #SSRG] IRC channel.
