This is going to be a remake of the original Metroid game, 16-bit style! It originally started back in February as a mini-hack project, but soon became a full-length hack project(then secret). There will be plenty of new stuff here as well, so don't expect it to be exactly the same as the original game.

IMPORTANT NOTE: I did NOT steal this idea from tbolt, as some have thought I did. I have been working on this for a long time, before tbolt even joined here, but wanted to keep it a secret at that time. Also, I have planned a few secrets of my own for this game, so it will be more unique. That is all, friends.

Crateria: 100% complete
Brinstar: 95% complete
Norfair: 10% complete
Kraid: 5% complete
Ridley: 5% complete
Tourian: 100% complete

Very nice! If I were you, I wouldn't show bugs in my demo.

Time bomb set get out fast!

So Samus shall finally tell the tale of her first battle here... her so-called Zero Mission.

My point being, there's room in this world for more than one Metroid 1 remake. Good luck to both you and tbolt.

OMG FLAN!!!!!!!

Lol @ the Geemer spasming laugh new

You do realise doors *must* be on the edge of the room?

Also I've heard quite a few arrangements of the Metroid themes. Is there a site where I can download all these tunes?

This is the most awesome metroid music collection available:

The first CD has all of the music from all of the games except MP3 plus it has some bonus tracks. The second one has a buttload of remixed tracks + metroid metal.

Actually, nearly all the music I used in that trailer came from the first disk of that 2-CD set. There is some awesome Metroid music there.

Now, concerning the hack/remake/whateveryoucallit: Sorry for the lack of updates, but I'm making more progress now, so I will post some new screenshots whenever I accomplish something significant. However, I will not reveal everything there is, since this may be finished soon and I don't want to throw out too many spoilers before release.

Phazar, you might want to do a redesign on what you showed, since it looks kinda... lineair, and Metroid did not look lineair. Let me help you with this. Check this out for any help needed:

The actual hack is going to be just as nonlinear as the original(well, minus Bomb Boost Jump SBs). That was just a little demo video that I threw together to show off some of the early progress. Much of what was there has been redesigned now. Also, I often use the old SCU M1 map and a Metroid 1 speed run in another window to design a lot of rooms, but Nesmaps is useful because it shows what is actually in those rooms(well, minimized, but still useful). Also, I started a map of what I have so far(Ignore the "Crateria" title at the top; I am combining Crateria and Brinstar into one area. Also, that stuff at the bottom are just unused rooms that I am storing there to avoid losing them in the blackness.):

*Bump*

New Orange Brinstar Tiles:

I know the background is ugly, but I'll be changing it soon.

Super Secret Area - Dead Ahead!

I'd actually be more inclined to point out the door that's not on the edge of the screen. You may want to either move it over, or place tiles around it to make it appear embedded in the scenery. Very Happy

I actually just moved it earlier today, since it needed to be on the edge of the screen to work. However, I moved it after this screenshot was taken, so you can't quite see what I did there.
