Hello all.
This is the current version of a metroid fan game I've been working on for a while, hope you enjoy.
Z is shoot, X is menu, arrow keys move, and Up jumps. Rest is up to you to figure out.
I'd like to eventually finish this project, especially with how much more I know about pico 8 and programming compared to when I first started this project. My original goal was to see how much stuff I could fit into a pico 8 cart, as that's always been an interesting topic to me. My next goal will probably be to condense what is already on the cartride so I can have more wiggle room adding the rest of the game. Anywho, good luck, the game softlocks after you fall into the long water pit area with the eyeballs.
This is incredible, especially for a first public project! Good job. Personally I haven't actually played any Metroid games but, whether this is accurate or not, it's a great experience to play. I will say however that sometimes it is difficult to find your way around.
Yup, I agree with wallgraffiti. This is very well made, especially for a first public project. Love it! I'm looking forward to a full Release of the Game^^.
Different Biomes with different (and very well made) Metroid-typical Music. I also like the Leveldesign. There are Details everywhere which is typical on Metroid, like flashing Items, the Transition between Screens and so on.
A few, quick suggestions: I would like that the Jump-Button is a dedicated X- or O-Button, not the UpArrow-Button. Also, a Minimap would be cool.
Great experience to play!
Great Game! although I really want a download link to this music because it is fire!
Marvelous exploration, @St3amPunk03 ! I noticed the bombs are using non-enlarged pixels yet everything else is double-pixel scale. Your particles might look better being 1x1 as well, up to you.
As for me I'm going spelunking. Gold star to hang above the entrance for you.
