New Stuff and more

Hey guys what's happening? The past couple of weeks I have been slowly adding new stuff, such as the entire Varia Suit sprites and half of the Gravity Suit sprites. Every pick-up in the game that you will hopefully get is done. Most of the blocks that you will shoot, fall through or blow up have been added.
Water and lava have been added. The missile sprites which I previously had were not the same as the Missile pick-up sprites, and that has been fixed. Ice beam has been added, and plenty more.

Now you can also change suits by pressing Space, although it's only a temporary way of changing suits as I will be making a Status screen shortly.

After Gravity Suit is added, I will immediately add the Zero Suit. This is because there are not as many sprites as the other Samus suits. I will then either add some more enemies to have a play around, or I will add the Hyper Suit before them, I haven't quite decided.

Also, I need you're opinion, guys. Do you think I should add the Hyper Beam, and if so, should it be only usable with the Hyper Suit, or not? (I.e for a harder game, it could be possible to not get the Hyper Suit, or at least not use it, which means Hyper Beam wont be usable?) What do you guys think?

  1. Yes, Hyper Beam, Hyper suit. Makes sense to me, and it gives more value to the weapon since you can only use it with that suit.

  2. Yes thats true. That was the annoying thing about the ending of Super Metroid, it was really easy to beat Mother Brain once you got the Hyper Beam. It lessened the value of it for me.
    Although the name 'Hyper Beam' implies it is awesome, the battle was done once that Metroid sprinkled all over Samus.

  3. IMO, Hyper Beam requires Hyper Suit and Hyper Suit is incompatible with Varia and Gravity Suits.

  4. Yeh. Hyper Suit will be completely different suits to both Varia and Gravity, although it is hard to consider what the differences will be exactly. I still haven't figured that out.
