Super Metroid Aspiration (New screens added)

Some of you may have heard me mention this in my rant about the current state of SMW hacking, but I'm making a Super Metroid hack now. It's called Super Metroid Aspiration. Why? Because I aspire to create a fun and enjoyable SM hack.

I don't really have a story as of yet but I'm thinking it'll take place post-Fusion and you'll see why.

Screenshot time (some are outdated):


Fusion Suit suit and ship colors! (Green on ship window has been fixed)


Part of the landing site. (Minimap is more detailed now)


I'm making this a "full hack". What that means in SM terms is that I've moving the rooms around from their original positions. For instance, this is the second room in the game, but I moved it from the Brinstar map to fit my designs. ^_^


Can you find the secret?


Small Morph Ball puzzle. I turned off Layer 3 so you won't know where the room is before you play.:P No Cheating!


I couldn't resist. *shot*

I have no projection of a release date, nor demo release if I choose to make one so don't bug me about it. Unlike most thread I've seen over the internet about SM hacks, I think I'll update semi-regularly, though it'll be different than updating an SMW hack. There are no World#s/Level#s in the game so progress is based solely on the number of rooms I have finished out of the total number I choose to create. So progress with come by screenshot updates and maybe a percentage.

Ok I'm rambling. Comments please.:)
hmmm... it looks really good, but im not that good at SM, so i probably wont try it.

So I have added this ball for FP so far... Next is the fusion ship....
Thanks GK. BT showed me on #jzd and also pointed out a tile error. The coloring looks a bit strange in places though, mostly the gray. Is that still the original palettes or did you modify them?
Off-Topic: With which program do you hack Super Metroid?
On-Topic: Looks funny! Maybe you can modify the battle room versus Ridley a little bit. Keep up the good work.
FP: Still same pallet. How ever, It is actually almost perfect to the one in fusion.. could be a bit darker blue though.

Buu-Huu: SMILE is the editor for SM you can google it.
It is really? I guess I'll have to see it in action when you return it to me. Not that I'll ask you to remove it though, I like it. Plus, you'll deadify me if I don't like it you said.:P

Any objections lady?
The ship looks cool GK

Wow, nice job on the ship. I like it a lot. Is this the finished product or is there still a bit to be done? I know the legs can't go on because of size issues; we discussed that.

OH SHIT that looks completely awesome!
Now, this would be even better if you could make the GFX look more like Fusion. :D
I haven't thought about modifying too many graphics but that could happen. Mostly, I want to get some good level design down first, then graphical changes if I choose to do so. I'm also trying to figure out how to implement some ASM hacks I want to add in.

Enough talk. Here's a screen of the room I'm working on.


The room isn't finished yet but this part is. I also have to change the enemies in here because I moved the room from Maridia, meaning red crabs that take away 120 energy... In one of the first rooms too...
it looks awesome
I'm quite happy with how this came out:


Icy palette. ^_^
It's only partially completed at this point, but that harder parts are done. All that's left with it is to recolor the grassy stuff and the piping.

As for a # of rooms done update, I've completed about 16 rooms now. I'm making steady progress too, so another yay there.
"Someone set us up the bomb"
CLASSIC!

the icy pallete looks awesome
This hack looks fun. How hard will this hack be?
Reading and the Spy Invasion
I'm not sure yet. I guess probably about the same to a little harder than the original. I'm not a fan of really hard hacks in general, so I'm not going to create something I won't enjoy playing for fun.

EDIT: Bad news. Doing the palette editing caused my hack to go kaflooie. I have to restart from one week ago. That means I have to re-do two big rooms and one small room, plus other misc. minor changes. Only good thing is that I have a saved palette file so I can try and fix it once I get the game back to where it was.

One week, down the tubes. BACK UP MORE OFTEN SELF. >_<

Looks awesome! I look forward to this one! Love the ice palette! I noticed that there are two types of red doors. Did the darker red doors replace the blue doors?
