Super Metroid: Insanity

[Cpt.Glitch]

Hack Type: Full-Hack

This hack features a handful of Hex and ASM tweaks, most of which are already on the site, but some are actually made by me.

[spoiler=Story]The hack takes place in Samus' mind as she attempts to battle her insanity from completely overcoming her.
The submaps reflect and tell much of the story themselves.

Neutral Zone:
The smallest area as well as the safest. This area is the only known connection between all the other zones. This area represents the last non-corrupted part of Samus' mind.

Wacky Zone:
One of the three major zones. This area is perhaps the most chaotic and unpredictable. This area represents the core of her craze. Some creatures and rooms may  seem out of place or completely random. While this may or may not be noticeable in the early areas of the zone, the deeper you go, the more wacky it becomes. Though it may be the craziest, it isn't necessarily the most dangerous of the zones.

Heated Zone:
Perhaps the most dangerous of the zones. This is the second of the three major areas. Representing the pain, suffering, and sickness caused by her condition, it's no wonder why this area is the most trouble of the zones. Most of this area is totally inaccessible until the secret of the her Insanity is unlocked.

Flooded Zone:
The last of the three major zones. This area represents Samus' memories. A lot of locations in this area will look familiar, but the growing dementia has warped her memories. This may cause some memorable areas to have a slightly different look or outcome than what was expected.

Quarantine Zone:
While not one of the three major areas, this is perhaps the most important. This area holds the secret to her insanity. Once discovered, new areas of the three major zones will be opened, allowing you to put a stop to her craze. But be warned, once discovered, the insanity will strike with full force. Use this moment to put and end to it.

I wouldn't worry about the name thing. Kejardon has stated that his hack has been cancelled, and will not be released.

Nice work so far. Love the Phantroid!

[Tomtroid]

Very nice. Noticed that you were using some of Metaquarius' custom music patches (Nyan Cat in Video #1 and Classic Ridley in Video #2). Keep up the good work.

[Metaquarius]

Very cool ideas you have for the story and submaps. I like the enemy resprites too.
Now you need Starman song in your hack, lol.

Minor Update:
Due to carelessness and lack of note taking, the hack was restarted at the end of 2015 (last year).
But fear not! As I have already got most of the GFX and tweaks moved over. Progress is steady but no level design has begun yet. GFX and ASM are my first priorities. All of the info in the OP is still up to date as well as the videos. Thanks for the support!

[Steel Sparkle]

Oh Cool. This looks interesting. Can't wait too see more about this. Good luck Captain  and don't lose your sanity making insanity. :3

[crazyal02]

The concept kinda reminds me of the EarthBound Halloween Hack. Looks pretty cool!

[Cpt.Glitch]

Room building has begun. Most of the nitty gritty is out of the way. Though there is still some enemy work and item naming to do. And maybe a few more ASM thingies, but for the most part, Insanity is making progress.

Should one smoke some weed or eat some shrooms before playing this?

[Steel Sparkle]

It's looking pretty sweet so far. I see you used Phazon 0.3 GFX in video three :3

Lol I'll let you decide on that one.

Yep! :D All of my tilesets are other users or original tilesets, with some of my own modifications thrown in. 

[Seeko]

So far this hack looks and sounds great. Keep up the good work!

[Cpt.Glitch]

First area is nearing completion! This would have happened sooner if I worked on this consistently.

So is this hack alive?

[Cpt.Glitch]

I still have the files for it, so while it isn't necessarily dead, it's definitely not active. Blame MAGE.
