Hello,
This is my first post for my game Metroid: Subterlabor.
I am making this game in Game Maker 7. I am using a mixture of Metroid sprites, but mostly from the GBA series'. I am also using AlexR2's Metroid movements engine, along with a friend: The Kousoru who is helping by coding for me.
I started this game at the start of this year, with many hurdles along the way.
I will upload some screen shots soon!
In the mean time.....replay your favourite Metroid games!
I haven't played Metroid 2: The Return of Samus, Metroid Prime 2: Echoes (other than the multiplayer), or the Pinball/Hunters games.
ReplyDeleteFrom the rest, my favorites are Metroid Fusion and Super Metroid. The depth, exploration, and awesome hidden features that really made Super Metroid polished were great. However, I found the controls (especially the beam toggle system) to be abysmal and I struggled with them the entire game. Metroid Fusion had the most amazing storyline and absolutely perfect smooth controls.
If a game could combine the scale, strategic depth, and awesome features of Super Metroid with the smooth controls and awesome storyline of Metroid Fusion I would be happy forever. To be honest though, I have yet to see what I consider the definitive Metroid masterpiece. Every single game has multiple things that are large disappointments to me.
I know what you mean completely. Although a fan-game, I'm going to make this smooth, and hopefully easy to play, and with good features. Please feel free to express some ideas to help make this game good for my players.
