Introduction

Welcome to the PK Hack section of starmen.net! Since the early 2000s, programming enthusiasts in the community have gathered together to play around with EarthBound's game engine, creating custom music and dialogue, making translations for languages like Spanish and Brazillian Portugese, and in extreme cases, whole new stories and cutscenes! With CoilSnake, the hacking tool the community uses and works on together, anyone can experiment with the game like this, the only limiting factors being free time and imagination.

Question: How do I change where Ness starts out from?
