I know that Metroid Legacy's already being mulled over, but apparently there's another hack that's just been released, and it's supposed to be large and even more in-depth, and so forth. Just giving any interested parties a heads-up, even if to only attract attention.

Awesome! Will check this out immediately. :-)

Sweet, I've been waiting for this one to be completed. I can already tell it will be totally awesome. It's just a shame he didn't do anything to the Ceres Station (save for cutting the timer down to 30 seconds) but once you land in Crateria you're in unfamiliar territory.

THIS is a hack worthy to be TASed, without a doubt.

nice hack :)

as usual, I'm stuck, but I'll keep trying to find that super missile (or whatever is next)

edit: one day I'll figure out why I can be stuck for half an hour, but will always find the next item 2 minutes after I posted about being stuck. Back to playing.

Yay! I was waiting for it, too. Gonna play right now. :)

BTW, I remember Sigfriedxx mentioning the estimated time for completing any% TAS to be around 1:30 or something. Must be a really huge game now.

It really is a massive hack, not like the original super metroid in terms of phsyics either. I do agree its worthy of a tas.

I hate how the increased gravity forces you to constantly dash if you want to make any jump. The number of shots needed for even the smallest enemies is insane, the hack has devolved the game to Metroid levels.

And I'm stuck because I can't walljump properly. Can't even manage a single jump in this hack.

I must say that I don't like the gravity either, and wall jumping on just one wall is kidna hard too. :)

And the fact that it's not possible to wall jump on every wall is kinda bad too.

But after all I'm not too good at Super Metroid.

Well, my incredible ability to always get lost struck, so I can't get anywhere, I must be the best player ever of this game, getting lost after like 20 minutes with no hope of returning where I came from.

Erm... walljumping is disabled on many surfaces in this game. Read the Readme.

Who are you replying to? I believe everyone has read the readme, since it would be kinda hard to play the game without doing so.

Well that doesn't really say anything about his metroid playing skills now does it?

I did use frame advance for that, it doesn't mean I'm good at the game. Also, Saturn did a better Ceres station before me, and I did a better Ceres station than that before JXQ did his.

It's okay, most people are usually having a hard time figuring out what I mean when I write posts on internet forums. So I guess it's more my fault, or something like that.

Woah, if that is already hard for some people, I don't know what will they be saying at the Ice beam. It is especially hard on the keyboard (if you don't use the slowdowns). There will be a lot of interesting bomb jumping places, which are fairly hard, too. Gravity is an unforgiving thing, heh.

I can't read that, my IP's banned over at Metroid2002, maybe you could tell me what that says instead.

Also, I thought bombs were going to mean freedom, guess I was wrong. For me, this is Super Metroid without all the things that makes Super Metroid what it usually is, the game I can speed run several times a week without getting tired of. Even then, I must say it's an impressive effort by the author, if only I could progress. ;D Everywhere I bomb there's always a Super Missile door behind the wall.
