I love the look and feel of this! And the music is great! I'm looking forward to what you do with it!
sooo good. My only preference would be to have an actual Metroid style map, but I get the desire to keep it old school. Would be cool if there was an accessibility option to toggle but, it’s your game!
Thank you. Believe me. I want to have a Super Metroid style map in there. The main problem was lack of time. This demo was made in 5 weeks for the NESmaker Byte Off competition 2024. I am still working on something to get a map working. However, there is a dollar store map thing... If you press Select during gameplay you will get your current coordinates. The instruction manual has dedicated pages to make notes based on your current position (X and Y coordinates). By the way, what do you mean by accessibility option?
ya of course i noticed the coordinates system and manual and think many people would find it super neat. By accessibility, I mean one of those options you can toggle to suit your preference, like easy vs hard, old school (coordinates) vs modern (map). It could be somewhere in the options menu.
I'll definitely replay if you end up adding it
