| Great step in one of the best NES games | edwinmusic | 2024-03-06 | Version 1.0 |
I think it's one of the most fantastic Metroid hacks ever made. It has great gameplay and graphics but there is something that is part of the very essence of this great game and that is the fanfare music, synonymous with a small victory, beautiful and classic original melody that is no longer present, a change from another very good one. . done but that old school fans of this great game feel that it is part of this story. As a proposal it would be to make an optional patch to restore the original fanfare. Thank you very much for this great Hack. | |||
| A top tier Nestroid hack with only a few minor issues | eskimo44 | 2024-03-04 | Version 1.0 |
Great graphics and presentation as well as some quality level design make this an easy recommendation. It's a great hack. There are some soft locks present, early in the game just outside of the bombs and if you get trapped in blocks without bombs, but it's not a big issue. The one with the health upgrade outside the bombs really is inexcusable though. The only one i found that was really troublesome after that was in the temple containing Ridley, there's a crumbled Chozo statue in a room with missiles that one can roll behind but after going in the pit the player has no way up. Also the odd unfair enemy or terrain can be encountered, especially in Kraid's lair, but nothing game breaking. It's Nestroid so unfortunately farming for health and missiles, early on, can be annoying but with the some decent spawn points its a far better experience than the original. I never did find Varia but it was more than doable without it. And my only other gripe would be it wasn't posted on Metroidconstruction.com otherwise i would have played it even sooner. Great job and a contender for consideration as a top 5 Nestroid hack, certainly top 10. | |||
| This hack is FIRE! It's a must play ASAP! | Googie | 2024-03-01 | Version 1.0 |
I've been playing with this hack for a couple of hours and I'm loving every minute of it. You can tell that this hack was made with love, and it shows. It's not everyday we get a Metroid hack so this is a real treat. It feels authentic, and I haven't bumped into any game breaking bugs. This hack is all that and a bag of chips, so if you have time to kill and looking for something fresh play this hack. I can't put this hack down and it's really fun to explore. | |||
