Genesis-Glitcher

Toy that generates interesting, random glitch art by automatically corrupting Sega Genesis (Megadrive) games. It works by injecting random data into the game ROMs. It's not big, and its not clever, but it does produce crazy results which are kind of fun to watch!

 

Use

1. Run macos-setup.sh to check your environment
2. Run start-web-server.sh to start the local web server
3. Drop game ROMs in the ./roms directory
4. In a separate terminal, run genesis-glitcher.sh

Tested on MacOS with Firefox.

See the comments in genesis-glitcher.sh for settings you can tweak.
