Super Metroid Ascent

That is fantastic, thank you!  <3

I'm stuck in one spot in zone 3 currently...

Just finished my first hour and 30 minutes of this hack, and WOW! This is super impressive, Benox! The hack is beautiful! It feels just right, too; the atmosphere is on par with Nintento's games, yet it's modern and feels great to play at the same time. The difficulty is just right and the world is interesting to explore, with unique ideas everywhere. I can only hope the rest of the hack stays this good!

[spoiler]I think there is a specific place to lay the PB but i couldn't figure it out.
The way i did it was:
[spoiler]There is a Gravity thingy in the previous room (where a metroid breaks off the wall), after i touched it i bomb jumped my way to that PB puzzle, you need enough health to tank the spikes damage though.[/spoiler][/spoiler]

Oh wow, thanks I wouldn't have found that!  I'm not sure if that's the intended way, but it does work!

I just finished the hack with 100% item completion in about 10 hours or so, great hack overall!

I'm replaying this to try and do better than the 73% or so I did the first time and I have a question - How do I get to the top of the room in Area 1 called "my other jump?"  My bomb jump maxes out before I reach the top of the shaft with spikes on either side.

Also is space jump in the game?   Never found it the first time. 

[benox50]

[spoiler]Must have the bomb explode under the morph ball (still touching it ofc) and not in the middle of it, also that room will be nerfed in next version cause too hard for zone1[/spoiler]

[spoiler]Yea space jump is in there[/spoiler]

[neat]

In "my other jump", since I'm not particularly good at bomb jumping in this hack, I just

d-boost off the spikes. Like this:

Loving this hack, going for 100% right now, but I'm stuck at 93.3% in Area 1, does anyone have a map of Area 1? I made a map of what I have so far.

I hope the items in the Pirates Aux. Lab don't count since the % resets to 0 in area 2.

[scoobyff666]

Here, I made some maps for zone 2 and 3. Circles are major items, diamonds are tanks (energy weapons, reserve and shinespark.) Green dots are supers, yellow ones are PBs. Default white squares are missiles.

Linked doors are color coded in zone 2 but not in zone 3 because they're all next to each other in zone 3.

In the map for Zone 2, there is a T to the left of crocomire, but when I get to that spot there is nothing. What is this item? I'm missing a single item in Zone 2, don't know where to look anymore :(

And one other thing, is it possible to open this door?

[benox50]

[spoiler]For zone1, you are missing an item in link door tutorial shaft[/spoiler]

[spoiler]That T is for varia but its named differently in this, so he put a T for toxin[/spoiler]

[spoiler]Also if there is nothing there that is because you got the varia (toxin suit)[/spoiler]

[scoobyff666]

Oh, so there are two possible places to get it..
What about this door? Is it even possible to open it?

I'll never find the missing item T_T

[benox50]

I dont know what could be your missing item because I dont have info on your current map and equip, but could be:

[spoiler]Missile in arena of gates room in toxic lab left side up, it appears only after event states there[/spoiler]

or

[spoiler]Return to Zone1 and there is 2 items there that are not speed booster[/spoiler]

[scoobyff666]

I found the item I was missing :) . The item you mentioned was also a pain to figure out, but I got it.
[spoiler]
I was actually leaving behind the energy tank to the right of speed booster.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler]
Even with all the items, that door still bothers me :/
[/spoiler]

And also, thanks for the incredible hack! I can't believe I forgot to say this.

[Ri2nOneRok]

Some of the soundtracks I havent heard before, are some of those originals you arranged?

[OhCwap]

Replayed it for 100% and i like how you decided to hide items, every single one of them has a dot in the mini map which makes 100% a lot less stressful than most hacks, of course there is hidden rooms that has items but nonetheless it was a fun experience.

Again, amazing hack you got there!


Time: 04:44
Items: 100%
3/4(75%) of animals saved  :colonrightv:

I'm loving Ascent so far, best graphics I've seen and great creativity. I ran into a problem though where I'm getting stuck in the boost ball room, and I have no idea how to get out. I don't currently have speed run. Would love some help from y'all!  :yay:

Here's a screenshot:

This has been answered elsewhere in the thread.

[spoiler]You can boost right through the arrows[/spoiler]

[scoobyff666]

I have recorded a playthrough of this game with 100% items. Of course, huge spoiler alert.
Unfortunately, it looks like version 1.11 was released just as I finished this video, and I don't know what changed.

[DonnyDonovan]

I'd be curious to know what's updated as well.  Is there a changelog for 1.11?  Comes with the new download?

Edit:  Found it.  It's in the readme.   Sounds like many quality of life enhancements.  Going to give this another playthrough I think using this version. 

[scoobyff666]

Oh yes, the readme. It's a big readme, left me with an even stronger feeling that I didn't find everithing in the game. And there are a lot of changes in this new version, I'm impressed.

[spoiler]
One line on the changelist says:

-Added a missile at the original varia just to be sure its not empty if by miracle a new player get the second before and go to where original is, find nothing even with a dot on the map which break the rule

And I was thinking.. first, does that leaves me with one extra missile tank in the end? And second,
I don't know how harder it is to get the "second" varia now, but I found it easily in my first play through and would never discover the "correct" one if not for this forum, because I would always go to this place first, knowing that the suit is there

I know the the title has a typo  :razz:

[Steel Sparkle]

Odd, maybe its because i patched it to the 1.0 rom. I'll try a clean un patched rom instead.
Edit: that did the trick. works fine now.
