In their own words
MultiworldGG
MultiworldGG is a multi-game randomizer that joins supported games in one multiplayer session. An item found in one player’s game can be assigned to another player, and supported games can also be generated as single-player experiences. The project is a fork of Archipelago, with tweaks and additional third-party worlds. Players can generate locally with the desktop client or use the website by uploading YAML configuration files or ZIP archives. Lobbies let participants upload configurations and coordinate in chat before a host generates the multiworld. Hosts can upload a generated ZIP or multidata file and provide trackers and patch-file downloads. Installations include a launcher, generator, server, and some clients; desktop downloads are available for Windows, Mac, and Linux. The website also links tools such as a text client, checklist tracker, and manual world client. Website-generated multiplayer games are limited to 30 players; larger games must be generated locally. Many catalog worlds are still in development and may be buggy or unfinished. MultiworldGG is free and open source.
Ocarina of Time Randomizer
Ocarina of Time Randomizer changes where items appear in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, creating a different playthrough. Its logic is designed to make every seed completable without glitches and avoid softlocks, even with any possible dungeon-key use. Players can adjust item and entrance placement, pots, crates, cows, shop prices, songs, cosmetic settings, starting inventory, and damage settings. The web generator lets users choose options, generate a seed, and patch a ROM in the browser. Generating and playing a seed requires an Ocarina of Time 1.0 NTSC-U or NTSC-J ROM. The site recommends a multicore CPU, at least 1.5 GB of RAM, and an updated browser. Mobile patching is supported but slower; listed device support includes Android phones with 2 GB or more of RAM and iPhone 5 or newer running iOS 10. Offline builds are available for Windows, macOS, and Linux. The project is free and open source. Its site points users to racetime.gg for races and Discord for discussion and help.
