In their own words
Free Enterprise
Free Enterprise is an open-world ROM hack and scavenger-hunt randomizer for Final Fantasy IV on the SNES. Players begin with the airship and can complete available quests in any order. The Pass opens a route in Toroia directly to Zeromus. The generator can also randomize key items, characters, treasures, shops and other elements.
Players can choose a preset in the online randomizer, generate a seed, then patch their own ROM for an emulator or flash cart. Playing requires the player's own Final Fantasy II US v1.1 ROM; the project does not provide that file. The project is open source and free, and the online randomizer lists version 4.6.0. Gameplay includes changed NPC dialogue with tips and a Baron Town training room that summarizes the changes. Developers can read in-game memory values to build trackers for items, locations and objectives. API seed generation requires a key and is currently restricted to developers making support software for community races.
Universal Pokémon Randomizer FVX
Universal Pokémon Randomizer FVX is a free, open-source desktop tool for changing data in vanilla core-series Pokémon games from Generations 1–7. It supports games for Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, Nintendo DS, and Nintendo 3DS, with Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Let’s Go, Eevee! excluded. Options cover Pokémon traits, evolutions, starters, moves, trainer and wild Pokémon, items, and type effectiveness. FVX adds palette randomization and custom player graphics, with support varying by generation: palettes are fully supported in Generations 1–3, partly supported in 4–5, and unavailable in 6–7; custom player graphics are limited to Generations 1–3. A seed and settings string can reproduce a randomization, and logs can be disabled to prevent spoilers during races. Users must provide their own ROM files. ROM hacks are not officially supported. For 3DS games, files must be decrypted; randomized output can be saved as CXI or LayeredFS. If a game update is loaded, LayeredFS is the only output option. The tool runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
