New Breaking Madden. Madden continues to be a kludged train wreck as soon as you step outside the box, but they have allocated more than one byte to the score memory.

Fumble Dimension is really interesting, I think because unlike a lot of games that have to test the extremes of what's possible, sports games are mostly built and designed around the assumption people are playing a human sport, like humans do, with known human players that are usually somewhere in the middle range of character creation.

Which means that a lot of sports games are tested instead around that expected medium-ish (especially given they probably aren't tested very hard), and so some wild poo poo happens if you press against the edges.

Is there a space for 'least favorite glitch'?

I feel like clever janky ways that games implement things is at least glitch-adjacent, and able to be appreciated in the same way. Like when you learn that in FFVI, every single in-combat-engine cutscene with Kefka takes place when your party has less than four people in it, because Kefka's programmed as a temporary party member solely so they can load him into those scenes.

Made the thread! Invisible plane guns are great, but I thought WoW's rabbit-murder-powered mechanics deserved a nod, too.

What's their purpose? Or is it just uninitialized character slots?

Most likely it's the default sprite and palette set. Terra is sprite set 0, Celes/Edgar/Sabin are palette 0, ergo the null default is Blond Terra.
