Saturday at 4PM EST, the Metroid II fan remake finally releases, built in the Zero Mission engine with overhauled level design and boss encounters. I will be playing as soon as it's released, anybody else hyped for this.

This was made in Game Maker, and then ported to something else, it's not a modification of Zero Mission.

When I moved to Kuwait after the war at the age of 5 Metroid 2 was one of the only games I had because it was on the Gameboy and my NES wouldn't work across countries. I played hours and hours rolling around and bombing every single surface and I never loving finishe dit

Works perfectly with my DS4 and earlyt impressions is that this is really sick. The speed is great and it feels a lot like Zero Mission in its jumping and ledge gripping. Ive already found a way to sequence break using a tight wall jump to access an area early, so this guy gets Metroid.

I could only play for 10 minutes but the opening was incredibly promising and I'm shaking at the thought of a new good Metroid game I haven't played

It's good enough that it makes me want to play the actual Metroid 2 after finishing it just for comparison's sake. I probably won't cause that game is super confusing to navigate in byt still

maybe it's because i'm so starved for a new metroid game but i'm at the 4th area now and it's been real good so far. the new stuff doesn't feel out of place and stuff like the quick-switch to morph ball with one button press is great. also i'm on normal mode and the metroid fights are kicking my rear end.

The instant morph ball button is the kind of little touch that I'm going to miss every time I go back to play an old Metroid game again. I also think I might do a chronological thon of the Metroid games now, slotting in AM2R in place of Metroid II.

I hope they use this engine to build some original Metroid fan games, it seems like it could make good 2D Metroids.

nintendo didnt even tweet out an anniversary message today, on my good friend samus' 30th birthday, on any of the 70+ language specific nintendo twitter accounts. metroid is completely off their radar
