Hello! I've helped out with BizHawk development, some site development, and done some TASing as well.
I'm highly interested in GBA accuracy at the moment, particularly in the context of TASing and speedrunning. I've found the current set of GBA emulators has a number of timing inaccuracies that affect the integrity of speedrun timing for a number of games, but I'm hopeful that these issues will be resolved over the course of the next few years.

** 🔍 [Games/619|Donkey Kong Land 2]: From some screen-by-screen comparisons with a video-only TAS, I found some improvements to the [4325M|published TAS for 100% from 2020].
** 🔄 [Games/1985|DK: King of Swing]: There are some known improvements for the publications, and I might be interested in looking for more.
* [GameGroups/266|Game & Watch] series

* Miscellaneous
** 🗒️ [Games/2429|Mario's Picross]: I sort of forgot I had a WIP TAS of this. There was one optimization roadblock that I needed to research.
** 🔍 [Games/3028|Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Souls]: I might TAS this when GBA emulation is accurate enough to match real-console's RNG. It has scanline-specific RNG for the boat 15-puzzle minigame.
