Overview

ZlothY (GitHub: ZlothY29IQ) is a Gorilla Tag modder and software developer primarily known for creating and maintaining Hamburbur, a cheat and utility menu mod for Gorilla Tag. By their own description, ZlothY rarely builds things from scratch, instead preferring to fork, fix, and improve upon existing projects.

Development Style

ZlothY primarily codes in C#, which aligns with the majority of Gorilla Tag modding work, and also works with Python, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, TypeScript, and C++. Their toolkit includes Unity, Blender, Git, Rider, WebStorm, and IntelliJ IDEA. ZlothY has described their own approach to development humorously, noting that they mostly fix and improve other people's work rather than producing entirely original projects. They have also joked that if their code works on the first try, something must have gone wrong.

Projects

Hamburbur

Hamburbur is ZlothY's flagship project and the mod they are best known for. It is described as the cleanest and highest-quality cheat menu available for Gorilla Tag. (Which, is a little biased) See the Hamburbur article for full details.

ZlothY Nametag

ZlothY Nametag is a nametag mod for Gorilla Tag featuring custom icons that display information about notable or special players. ZlothY notes that the mod was originally made for them rather than by them, and that their version is a fork with additional features added on top.

WalkSimulator

WalkSimulator is ZlothY's fork of a mod created by KyleTheScientist, which allows players to interact with Gorilla Tag without the need for a VR headset. It is one of their most starred repositories on GitHub.

Dingus

Dingus is a fork of Gizmogoat's original dingus mod, to which ZlothY added networking functionality.

TooMuchInfoHanFork

TooMuchInfoHanFork is another forked and modified project pinned on ZlothY's GitHub profile.
