This past Friday, they announced that the next week’s show will be their last.

I’m been asked a variation of this question: “Why do you really love a game that’s over 10 years old and few people have ever heard of?” The obvious topic to choose for my last 12 Days post is EarthBound.

[#ebff] Building a Sound Stone

He uses it to collect the melodies of the eight Your Sanctuary locations that give him the power to defeat the cosmic evil Giygas.

This is primarily a documentation for those who would be interested in building one of these. The source code for the project is available here for anyone to use and modify.
