List of hacks
This is a list of ROM hacks for Oracle of Ages and Seasons.
Ages
Oracle of Nature
Made by Lin and Fatories in ZOLE's heyday. It was finished up to the end of Dungeon 3.
Oracle of Hours
Made by Luigi, and based on the maps from an April Fools joke by Jon Leung. The public demo goes up to the end of Dungeon 4. Read the readme before playing.
Archipelago
A short hack by Nobody.
Kaizo of Ages
Made (with apologies) by Drenn. The released demo is finished up to the end of Dungeon 1, although the overworld is unchanged.
Oracle of Weather
A short demo of a hack by ElVis002 with one dungeon.
Ages Dungeon Pack 1
A 3-dungeon hack by jangler.
MISICS
An in-progress hack by Xyspade. Shrouded in mystery.

Oracle of Seasons: Shattered
Even more kaizo-ish romhack by Lotus_RT. Speedrunning tricks required.
Both games
Crossworld
Made with the help of oracles-disasm by dan jia. Both of the Oracle games combined into a single ROM with the ability to move between the two worlds via the Ring Shop.
Randomizer
Without changing much of the game itself, the randomizer shuffles item locations all around the world. There are several active branches of the randomizer.
Branches
Original randomizer by jangler. Stable and solid. A web interface exists for this and the entrance randomizer.
Entrance randomizer branch: All indoor<->outdoor warps are randomized. Hasn't been updated in a long time, may have issues. Can be used in the web interface above.
NG Randomizer: Rewrite of the randomizer with new features such as "cross-items". Also supports keysanity. If you want to play keysanity, use this instead of the other web interface as it's more up-to-date.
Plandos and Mini-Hacks
A number of small hacks have been made within the speedrunning community. As these are made for a specific audience, some may require advanced game knowledge, or familiarity with how the randomizer normally works.
At first, these hacks took the form of "plandos", which are like randomizer seeds, but with planned item locations. These plandos were taken a step further by adding extra hacks to create interesting challenges, without changing too much of the base game.
Later on, jangler started making mini-hacks which can't be considered "plandos" anymore, since changed item locations are not the focus. Note that hacks listed here which aren't considered "plandos" won't have shuffled item locations.
Each of these mini-hacks has a gimmick. The gimmicks aren't explained here since that would spoil the experience.
