Hello. This is our first attempt at doing a Metroid hack and we thought about implementing one with a Blaster Master theme. When pacnsacdave released his Dark Alliance hack for Blaster Master I figured why not do a hack for Metroid with the the Blaster Master theme? We teamed up and I bounced some ideas off him for graphics and other things and we came up with some neat concepts. Here are some screenshots of the graphics that have been done and the title screen. We still need to do the level designs yet but we wanted to iron out everything graphically before we take the next step forward which will be very very soon.
Also like to give credit to the authors of MDbTroid and Roidz' for using their doors, animated lava, and new Samus design. Also another thanks to Snarfblam for his auto-saving and wavy ice patch he released plus Editroid which is also making this project move forward greatly! The story of this is that it takes place years after the events of Blaster Master and remnants of the space pirates are conducting weapons research and experimentation on what remained after Jason's events of the Blaster Master game. What horrors and grotesque things are happening on the world of Sophia the 3rd and what are the Space Pirates up to here? As Samus you must investigate and eliminate any threats in which you may discover on this strange far away world..... *NOTE* Also we are in need of somebody who is able to change the music in the game! If anybody is knowledgeable in this area we would welcome a great addition such as this to our hack! I took a crack at it and did not get too far ____________________ Current & Finished Projects -----------> http://www.romhacking.net/community/131/ Metroid Blast Hack in the works ----> http://forum.metroidconstruction.com/index.php/topic,3103.0.html See if you might have lost money or checks in your state!! http://www.missingmoney.com |

Oh man, that looks so cool. I'm really looking forward to see further development of this hack.
I saw a hack which added a mini map in the corner a few years back, perhaps something you would like to implement as well? I do not remember the name of it but someone here should. |

Love this idea! Have you guys posted over at Metroid Construction about your ideas for this hack? Might be a great place to get some more feedback/insight. Looking forward to seeing this one get finished. Great job! |

Posted by amarcum81 Thanks! We got the same thread on Metroid Construction, Romhacking.net, and here Would love it if somebody came forward and can redo the music. I want everything possible to be different. I also want to change the enemy AI and possibly have them do different stuff but not sure if we are going to get that in depth with it due to lack of knowledge. Level building will start after May9th ____________________ Current & Finished Projects -----------> http://www.romhacking.net/community/131/ Metroid Blast Hack in the works ----> http://forum.metroidconstruction.com/index.php/topic,3103.0.html See if you might have lost money or checks in your state!! http://www.missingmoney.com |

We added new looking doors for each level here. We took them from Super Metroid, Metroid Fusion, and made one out of the face of the guardian to get into level 2 in Blaster Master. We thought it would be a welcoming change instead of seeing the same looking door over and over again. Also we added a special playable character for those who beat the game in a fast enough time
Also does anybody know how to alter the enemy AI, speed or even add the feature for enemies to fire projectiles? ____________________ Current & Finished Projects -----------> http://www.romhacking.net/community/131/ Metroid Blast Hack in the works ----> http://forum.metroidconstruction.com/index.php/topic,3103.0.html See if you might have lost money or checks in your state!! http://www.missingmoney.com |

Idk Metroid's assembly, but for projectiles, id try these ideas.
The colored spheres on the ground that shot half circled fireballs. Id watch that sprites asm, and see how it loads the projectile routine. And if your enemy is in the same prg-rom bank as the projectile asm, simply create a custom jsr routine to the start of the projectiles asm, for when you want the projectile to be initiated by whatever your jsr'ing from. Also watch Kraid & Ridley too, for how they shoot projectiles. Idk other enemies off the top of my head that shoot. |

Got some progress to report, got 95% of Tourian done and 40% of Brinstar done. Working out all the platforms & tiles for the rest of the game to give it a more Blaster Master feel. Here are a few screenshots for Kraids lair, nothing super huge but its a start

Ah that is your hack you want me support. Three things which benefit your game greatly, besides some tiles from me.
1st make use of the full spectrum of colours, which includes the useage of the black background colour. 2nd upgrade the mapper to MMC5 so you can give 8x8 tiles from 16x16 tiles their own palette. 3rd make Samus use a layered sprite for her visor. Also she should get black outlining. If you do not mind, I can give your Samus a makeover. Regarding music, Infidelity could install the Capcom Sound engine to your game, but that won't happen now, because he is fixing all the bugs and flaws out of the Zelda game we two have been woking on. ____________________ I was a prisoner enclosed in the void, were everything might end up just as myself.

Thanatos I simply just can't insert a sound engine for any game. It took me awhile to dissect how Zelda performed the asm for it. Each game is different and all the original sounds/sfx would have to be completely rewritten. It took me months to compose everything.
Anyway, I hope the progress continues with this project, its looking amazing! |

As soon as I am done with all the level designing and other stuff, I am definitely going to want some expert consultation and examination before releasing it
Also here are a few more pictures for Brinstar, this is the forest portion of it. This part of the map will have other rooms and the most variety of all the sections of the game when all done. ____________________ Current & Finished Projects -----------> http://www.romhacking.net/community/131/ Metroid Blast Hack in the works ----> http://forum.metroidconstruction.com/index.php/topic,3103.0.html See if you might have lost money or checks in your state!! http://www.missingmoney.com |

Was thinking about why there were only polyp shooters on floors and figured why can't they be put on the walls? Did some graphical work with flipping the sprite sides around and used Editroid for enemy placement and this worked out great! They fire out of both sides from the walls without any need for ASM works
