Title: CDI posts updates about his Metroid game
Post by: CDI on January 21, 2006, 05:04:00 am

In the past few days CDI has made major improvements in his Metroid game utilizing the xLIB app by tr1p1ea. Using everything from pics to lists and matrixes, archives programs and almost all your RAM Metroid certanlly is massive. It takes up well over 30000B at the moment and will soon take up more  :laugh: With 38 matrixes stored in 6 programs and 3 bosses 2 of which are well known, 4 diffrent powerups, secret passages, and unlimited enemies this game is going to take you ages to beat. Best of all, no saving. This means that you have to beat it in one sitting, which according to CDI takes about 3-45mins. Recentally CDI has posted 2 very nice pictures of Metroid

First, the map (or the minimap)



-Legend-

White = Solid (or appeard solid)
Grey = MorphBall Required
Green = Door
Red = Boss Room
Blue = Item Room
Yellow = Lava
Black = Background


And the title screen



Seeing the sudden progress on this project Hopefully it'll be finished soon!

You enter lava and you loose health w/out the varia suit which protects you from lava... you have to beat the 2nd boss to get it though in a room where the lava rises and falls :D the only exception to the lava rule is the MotherBrain battle, she can cancel out the effects of your varia suit

Sorry, i can't see what's good in that. It sounds like either you didnt know how to save (which doesnt seem likely, knowing your leet skills) or artificially trying to increase the time it takes to beat it.

i think the second, i still think it need save tho, but maybe a second game could be made as well %) so we have a metroid saga on calc %)


on a side note I beaten kraid, but be warned: its impossible to beat without Hacking the game  :dang:

the boss in the lava part of the game with brick walls is easier tho you just need to shoot his eye the only pb is that you are warped randombly at random places of the screen before he shoots and there is lava on the floor.


Awesome Metroid 1-2 mixed style :)

a ) the boss where the bricks are is MotherBrain
b ) kraid only takes 20 hits! I can beat him with 50 health left!!! (unless the game is b0rked more)
c ) the 2nd boss is almost impossible :D funfun

@dysfunction - they will in the updated version
