Well its time for another one room hack!  (Well sort of, theres 4 rooms...)

SUPER METROID : RIDLEY'S CHALLENGE
(its headered!)

A non-linear one room hack that will have you scanning the area for as many items as you can find before fighting Ridley!

SKILLS NEEDED:
-Mockball
-Speedball
-Walljump
-IBJ
-Short Charge
(maybe more)

ITEMS: 25 in all

Will take any comments you have!  Please post if you find bugs.
-------
It is April 1st... But why would I fake something like this?  That would just be cruel!  Come on!  I'm not Kejardon!  Trust me!

edit:
I have empirical evidence showing that chozo warriors are indeed faster than hedgehogs

I completed it in 38 minutes by the clock. (probably 2 hours of playing) Very fun hack, some annoying parts though (basically everything in the lava) and some non obvious solutions here and there that annoyed. Also I have no idea of when I broke the hack and when I didn't... it's really non linear and no obvious paths once you are halfway in.

Played for like 5 minutes, got stuck. Then I played for like 10 minutes and got stuck again. Now I have given up.

That doesn't sound like you... getting stuck and all  : )

Also I got the first super the wrong way I'm quite sure, I was able to pick the one at the first missile pack from outside the wall with a spinjump after I got wavebeam.

Is IBJ absolutely required?  I suck at it, so it's always been kind of a dealbreaker for me.  Mockball (provided adequate space to do it) and reasonably tricky walljumps are fine.

IBJ - Yes its required!
Mockball with adaquent space - is a few tiles adaquent? Eh... probablly not!
Walljump - mostly dodging hazards!

Is very short charges necessary? I used that a couple of times but the space was so short that it was just barely possible in realtime.

I would say the latter.  That part was designed to be really hard in realtime. 
Very short charge would only be an extra advantage to know!  Not a mandatory move, good timeing is all that is neccessary!
edit:
Thats not to say that short charge is not needed!  Short charge is very neccessary!

darn it, i can't finish it, cuz i can't mockball. =/

(still, i wish the mockball wasn't required)

I found that the low ceiling made the mock ball easier to preform.

Varia doesn't exist to my knowledge, only gravity. And charge beam... don't remember.

I Completed this hack with the same stats as Cpadolf.  Nice, fun, hack, although I think people's definitions of "challenging" are getting harder as time goes on.  I had to use quite a bit of save states on this one.

With the exception of Ridley.

I think if you make another hack, you should tone down the difficulty just a bit.  I'd say a good 75% of the people here wouldn't complete this hack due to difficulty.

Yeah, the only reason its so hard is because its a one room hack.

I myself would rather make easier hacks, with hard challenges for extra items like super missles, etc.

edit: If I can beat it, then I guess that I'm getting better after all!  Maybe I should take another swing at Impossible...

Do this plz. You'll be able to reach a wider audience. Are you working on a fullhack or a minihack or anything?

I wanted to wait alittle longer to release this but....

I've done a half hack = Rewind
a one room hack = Ridley's Challenge
planning on a full hack = Pantheon

I'm done with the blueprints and am currently testing all my ideas before any real progress will be made.  It'll be awhile before you hear anything concrete.

-------
Random SMILE quirk : Setting a rooms FX2 pointer to C124 will make for explosions!  A few other ones will work as well such as... E5A0, E57C, E5A4, C120.  This is used in the Tourian escape sequence.
