Overlord

From Sonic Retro

Revision as of 21:36, 24 February 2008 by Overlord (talk | contribs)

Overlord joined the Sonic Community around November 2001 at the board Area 51, where he was an occasional contributer until the board finally collapsed in the summer of 2002 (he still maintains that something bad in the Sonic Community always happens when he leaves on a scheduled break for more than 3 days) while holidaying in the USA. After the board's collapse, he joined Sonic CulT, where he remains to this day, though in this time he has also been a Council Member at the new Sonic Stuff Research Group boards, and occasionally makes visits to Sonic Retro and other misc Community boards. He was a staff member at Shadowsoft Games before the SSRG seperation from their official boards, but still retains good relations with the company founders.

Scenewise, Overlord's main contributions have been a very primitive Sonic 2 hack by the name of Sonic 2 XP which never really went anywhere, and the STE (Sonic Text Editor) tool, used for editing the text inside Sonic games or any game that the user creates an STE compatible template file for. He is rumoured to be considering making a new version of this tool - removing it's existing limits and finally reaching the point where adding new games is not limited solely to him doing it. The latest version of the tool available is 1.10 and also contains the latest version of his SA:DX PC Text Editor tool. He has also written header editors for Mega Drive and GBA ROMs.

He is possibly most infamous in the community for using the "=P" emoticon excessively.
