Writes Neo shortly after his Final Fantasy V playthrough and review:
So very exciting news everybody! I got invited to a Final Fantasy V Summer Fiesta event by @clymax. It features a heavily modified version of the game in which people speed run it! I’m no speed runner but I couldn’t say no to such an exciting opportunity. I am as blind as possible on what is modified about the game so very exciting stuff. I’ll be streaming my “speed run” of the game July 17 at 6:00 PM MST!
So, mark your calendars, boys!

For more details or to discuss a commission, visit the comissions topic in the help channel of the Discord. You can also DM clymax.

Similar terms as for self-rando mods, but the cost is a flat fee shown in the above table, for ten game keys for the Menu Translation mod.
Self-Randomizer Mod
No, these are not site-based or app-based randos. Instead, on every reset you can get a new randomization.
Terms
The research will be for creating an item randomizer for the chosen game. The game must not be a hack or a homebrew.
No randomization scheme beyond L1 randomization is guaranteed. See clymax’s projects page here for more info on randomization schemes.
The research can be commissioned by arranging for a pre-alpha version of the romhack to be listed on a digital store and purchasing the pre-alpha version.
The cost of the commission is a flat fee shown in the above table. Please note, to enable the low cost, no refunds will be provided.
Although no ETA is provided for completing the research and delivering an initial build of the hack, a turnaround time of one to seven calendar days can be typical.
A special Commissioner role is available to be awarded to the player in the Discord.
If the research is successful, the player will receive nine additional game keys for the item-randomizing romhack to share with others (for ten copies total of the romhack patch). The game keys include access to all future updates to the romhack.
The initial release of the romhack can be anywhere from an alpha state to a beta state. The work under the commission concludes when the romhack is anywhere from a beta state to a release state.
If the research proves unsuccessful, the player can choose a different game to research. Effectively, the player does not pay for a failed research attempt. This process can repeat until research is successful.
To enable the low cost of the commission, the modder retains all rights related to the romhack. The modder can maintain the hack as a private hack and, just like a private hack that was not commissioned, add the commissioned private hack as a listing on a digital store.
To be clear, the commission does not include any public release of the romhack in any form.
To enable the low cost, no major updates are guaranteed for a commissioned romhack. But additional commissions can be considered to expedite developing the romhack further.
Currently, only the Super Nintendo and Super Famicom are supported as systems.
The modder has discretion to decline a request for any reason or for no reason. Games listed as being unsuitable for rando modding are not eligible.
All rights belong to their respective owners. No laws are violated by the commission, any work under the commission, or distribution of any deliverable resulting from the work.
