Hello everyone, this is a thread for my new hack.
It's also featured on Metroid Construction (http://forum.metroidconstruction.com/index.php/topic,4094.0.html).
Working Title:
METROID
SPACE COMPLEX
(http://i1126.photobucket.com/albums/l603/mindflowersparty/Mobile%20Uploads/test%20rom-5_zpslpzg4gmx.png)
It's located in deep Space, in which Samus is going to experience a great Adventure. She travels from planet to planet finding secrets, fighting enemies and bosses, travelling through meteorites. The world is some interconnected space.
As of the background story honestly, i have to think about that one. Anyone good ideas? ;)
Current DEMO Version:
Space Demo v0.7
In case of interest just send a pm!
THEMES:
Brinstar - Open Alienated Space
Norfair - Floral Hills and Landscape / Temple
Kraid - Deep Cave
Ridley - Slimes and Mushrooms
Tourian - Glass + X
new pictures:
old pictures:
BACKGROUND MUSIC:
Youtube Links.
unordered, Tracks are all WIP, could get altered and the areas where they are used in the video could be or not be where they are in the final hack.
Goals in short:
Story line gets written.
Graphic gets completely overhauled. New Music Tracks get composed. Levels are built from scratch. Some new Upgrades gonna get featured.
Goals achieved:
Graphics and Background Music done partially (see numbers down below)
A Bomb Upgrade, healing and hurting Units are already implemented. There are plans for more!!
- in numbers -

Springball 0% (help!!!?)
Spacejump 0% (is it even possible?)
Animations 20%
Slope Detection 0% (desperately waiting for Editroid 4 and new asm mods)
So far, i will give additional info and updates whenever i'm willing to or something new is implemented.
I've got the blessing of a job with a lot of free time and i get more experienced, thus i am optimistic of a completion of the whole thing.
I am very happy about critics, feedback of all kind, suggestions, or the opportunity to work together.
Especially in regards of asm modifications i would love help! :whoa:
Stay tuned. Cheers! :bounce:
More Pics! :woot!:
Great to see your interest!
At the moment I'm working some improvement proposals from the last playtest session into the Hack (I'm on metroidconstruction.com since October 2016), some minor polishes plus a few new screens.
The result will be Space Demo v0.7.
I guess it will be in the next two weeks.
Stay tuned :beer:
A brandnew Song.
Get ready for Rampage in the Temple!
It's dangerous here.
TEMPLE RAMPAGE (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=00qZKmd0O0E&index=6&list=PLgd6tGK8XIz39on7jY4Nduz9xav6Shh9s)
A Floral Sign of Life
Painting the enemies in the background's green colour palette makes them stand out less, but makes them merge/ blend with the background.
Especially because there are many green air tiles(passable for Samus and enemies), it goes for a little "hide and seek" atmosphere. Like ambushing sprites you didn't see at first.
What do you think, do you like that idea or is it too distracting (cause that's what i asked myself as well)...?
Curious 'bout your opinions.
Cheers!

Graphical Prototype:
The Lab
Note: it was a fast sketch to accommodate all the lab tiles i painted thus far. I just wanted to know how it actually looks in the game (as those tiles were all painted during train rides over weeks, now). And it turns out nicely. But i need far more variation!

In the meantime, here's Green Hill Zone
Hey, this hack is still alive.
That's one of the things i did lately:
Yep, an old screen, for those who playtested a later demo, but with more layers and polish.
Cheers!

Hey folks,
in the meantime i had plans how to do a slimy mushroom area.
Some little ideas i had during a trainride:

By the way:
Someone got a better picture hoster app than the imgur app? Too many times the upload doesn't work properly.
New pics 8)
Been busy!
Floralfair
Kraidcave
As well as the beginning of Slimy Ridley Mushroom Disaster. Stay curious!
Graphics look interesting, I'm not really into Metroid but I might try this once it's released.
About image hosting sites, I use Photobucket, which works ok, but it usualy takes me more than 10 minutes to upload a single picture(this could actually be due to my internet speed but I'm unsure).
Ironicaly, Imgur is a little faster for me and rarely screws up, but a few people told me that Photobucket is better, so i switched.
There is also Imageshack, though I haven't really used it.
Nice to see your interest.
Thanks for the tipp regarding photobucket. It's working well for me, much more flawlessly as imgur.
I have uploaded 3 new tracks to Youtube.
Enjoy!
