Yasu, who you’ll remember as the Japanese programmer to first demonstrate that running homebrew software is possible on the DSi, has released several PC tools designed to help with trading and editing Made in Ore microgames.

MIOtool - Export specific user-created microgames, music, and comics from a standard save file (of course, to get a Made in Ore save file onto your PC, you’ll either need a ROM/flashcart or a device like this), outputting a .mio file. You can also import .mio files into your save with this.

MML2MIO - Convert ML scripts (Music Macro Language) into Made in Ore music tracks.

MIOedit - Open .mio files to view and replace graphical elements. From what I understand, you can drop in sprites created in external applications like Photoshop.

And because I’ll use any excuse to share the latest Made in Ore microgame I’ve found, here’s a silly Ouendan thing:

Import: Made in Ore
