    YoniArousement’s flagship romhack is Bishoujo Super Street Fighter II: Glamor Queen. It’s a combo and fighter replacement ROM Hack of the Sega Genesis version of Super Street Fighter II. It features tweaked move sets, edited sounds, juggles and adds dashes. The project came about when he was tweeting Game Genie codes for the game.

    Bishoujo SSF2: Glamor Queen

    Bishoujo Super Street Fighter II: Glamor Queen and the New Femme Fatales is a Combo ROM Hack of the Sega Genesis version of Super Street Fighter II, where some of the fighters are replaced with female characters from various franchises. It could be one of the first of its kind, like the numerous ROM Hacks of Streets of Rage 2 & 3. An intent is to make the game easier to beat.

    The project started when I was tweeting Game Genie codes for MD SSF2. I wanted to see if I could make Old Sagat’s cancels possible. People were taking notice of my tweets in early 2023, so I experimented with editing the game further. I wasn’t expecting to grab people’s attention from editing the game. I put my blood, sweat and tears into making this.

    Early in the making, I wanted this to draw inspiration from a lot of Champion Edition bootlegs, but I later found that the MD SF2 games weren’t coded to have more than one projectile per player at once, so I decided to make juggles possible.

    The fighter replacements, in order that they were made: Blanka is changed to Roll from Mega Man, Dhalsim is changed to Mai Shiranui from Fatal Fury and King of Fighters, E. Honda is changed to Choi Jadoo from Hello Jadoo, Fei Long is changed to Emily from Unholy Night: The Darkness Hunter, Dee Jay is changed to Madonna from Makeruna! Makendou 2, Boxer is changed to Avra Yumeno and Belva Lina, both original creations, with the former being created for this ROM Hack. Jadoo and Avra’s sprites were not cheap, and the other characters were given several newly drawn sprites overall.

    Roll is a lethal joke character who is a one trick pony, Mai is a no brainer of a character choice with a relatively balanced moveset, Jadoo is given the Chibi Back Dash, can double jump and can cheese you with her Hundred Hand Slap and Headbutt, Emily can Air Dash and kill you from throws, Madonna is an insane combo character who can take you out quickly, Avra has high priority normals that do block damage, and Belva can use MvC2 Sentinel’s flight with no transitions.

    So is this ROM Hack fun to play? You can decide on it. The ROM Hack certainly spoils its players. I couldn’t find any other Street Fighter II ROM Hacks on Speedrun.com, excluding the Champion Edition bootlegs, of course. This ROM Hack is not to be taken seriously. Fingers crossed it gets added to Fightcade.

  • SSF2: Pulverized Released

    You can follow clymax’s projects via FFVC or YouTube.

    The Super Street Fighter II: Pulverized mod for the SNES has been released courtesy of clymax.

    It belongs to the lineup of clymax’s “RPG/leveling” mods.

    A release build for Romhack Plaza is being considered, or you can get early access to the dev build on Game Jolt. Our sister Discord for arcade gaming1 is available for support.

    1. clymax’s magical arcade Discord here. ↩︎

    Development Build: Features

    Grind your characters into the ultimate fighters!

    For each match victory you earn, you will gain one level, shown at the top of the screen.

    Each character has his or her own level. Your progress carries across runs and resets!

    Save-file support has been added. Character levels are autosaved in the save file.

    Each level improves your attack and defense. Minimum level is zero. Max level is 175.

    Currently, the attack bonuses do piercing damage, so opponent blocking does not help them.

    The bonuses currently don’t apply to throws.

    Going for that 1HKO has never been easier, but can you handle the grind?

    To reset all character levels, go to Options and briefly change Stereo to monaural.

    Only the 1P side is currently supported.

    The game now defaults to the fastest speed setting of three stars rather than the slowest speed setting of no stars.
