Hack description

This hack changes many features of the game to match AM2R and the Prime series. On Easy and Normal, all Save Stations heal abd restore ammo.

The map has been modified to be consistent with the Zebes featured in Super Metroid, and opens up the world slightly for more player agency and faster routing.

On Normal and Hard, Chozo Guide Statues have been removed, however, they are slightly bugged on Easy due to the map edits.

Extra rooms have been added in anticipation of new items to be added in future hacks.

More details, and full credits, are included in the Readme file.


Known Issues:

Morph Ball animation not adjusted after applying the better roll patch.

The Ice Beam is skippable now due to Crateria being open, and since Tourian requires it for the Metroids, it's a bit of a problem. Ensure that is it not forgotten.

Weapon Toggle shows up for Bombs, which it isn't supposed to and can't actually Toggle.

Samus still makes the running sounds after the first cutscene despite starting at her ship.

Chozo Guide markers in Brinstar have messed up pathing, due to Brinstar's map being moved over to the right, as well as additional issues. The Crateria map also reveals a hidden room due to the map being moved.

Map does not include the Chozo Guides, due to the lack of a way to modify it based on difficulty.

Samus' suit keeps the Varia shoulders when removing the Varia and Gravity Suit.

This hack "adds" nothing aside from poorly hamfisting a few other people's hacks together. All it does is change around some rooms, break the chozo statues, and make you start at your ship. If the plan is to add much more, then this is by no means a release candidate.

Way too many bugsifightdragons2020-02-15Version 1.0

The hack has too many bugs to be released yet. The description could also be more precise.
