Metroid: Lost Chozo

[jasinchen]

[Story]
I crashed land on a strange planet due to the failure of the spacecraft, and Power Suit was completely damaged after impact. So, I had to explore this strange planet.

[Tips]
1.Bomb jump and Wall jump are not required.
2.Easy mode: statue hint, Normal mode: no statue hint.
3.The map is very huge
4.Metroids in this planet weak to most weapons
5.Read readme.txt for more details

[Warning]
Some music are copyrighted. I didn't notice that when choosing music, it is not a problem in my country.

Already need help.
[spoiler]Desert area, inside a white ship area. Outside the save point to the left is a laser beam that alerts a gold pirate to chase you. It leads to a dead end. If i manage to lose the space pirate and go through the door he comes out of it leads to a power bomb door. Where do i go? I can provide a screenshot if needed.[/spoiler]

Many players stoped at this place.. Just goto right room of save room, and shot the wall, you can find a channel

Large MAP! I like this!

If many players are getting stuck, then it means it's the developer's fault. You should fix this.

I updated it just now, please wait for approval.

Played it once, and judging by how far away Samus's ship is from Mother Brain, no one's going to be able to make it within the time limit. 4 or 5 minutes is still too short.

Good hack, the map is big, I like it, there are a few props hidden very hidden, not easy to find, but this is MetroID, the game's BGM is very good, several areas of the scene is very good, like the plant area, finally set the escape time is enough, if you have a variety of abilities.

It is a bit challenge.
Can use Missile/Super Missile kill Metroid faster.
Good luck

Am I an idiot, I can't get bombs for 30 mins and I guess where I need to finally get them is where I'm stuck at. The parasite room in Kraid.

You can get back cavern and explore the room you have not explored.

Bombs are in Cavern though they are fairly difficult to find. My advice is to try every route you can, and shoot ALL THE THINGS! Don't be shy about using missiles either.

For jasinchen, you don't *have* to do this, but adjusting missile blocks to be revealed by beams and for missiles/supers to reveal all blocks would make finding things much easier since instead of having to bomb jump to reveal something on the ceiling it could just be missiled.

[zb10948]

I'm sorry, wrong location in my post.
I'm stuck in area of lower Cavern between entrance to Kraid and the parasite room (the things that jump and latch onto you). Crumble blocks drop you down in that room and you can exit only with bombs. I'm unable to solve this room, I have no idea what to do.

Before that room, the path up is blocked by bombs.

Shot at this wall.
Tip: Focus on the "interrupted wall" when stuck at somewhere.

(Maybe I should make the breakable block more obvious.)

[zb10948]

Haha I have shot the entire room with beam and with missiles. I guess just missed that block. I thought it was the center block with nothing above it...thanks.

Change the emulator may solve the problem.

Yes, but players should not need a screenshot in order to play! If there are many players complaining about the same area you should improve the level design in that area in such a way that players might be able to get a hint in the locations of secret passageways. For example, Secret passages are usually found at dead ends, or have a weird thing sticking out of the wall that indicates there might be something there if you attack.. or a single empty block in the ground is a good hint that there is a secret passage below. You need to fix the mod, not give players screenshots.

Here's a good example from Metroid SR387 of how to handle secrets in big mods:


I hope this gives you inspiration :^_^:

The hack doesn't need to be "fixed" just because it has a secret-hiding philosophy that some people don't agree with. If the player has trouble finding slightly obscure secrets, maybe they just shouldn't be playing a hack built around finding slightly obscure secrets.

I remember a little monster crawling out there

[zb10948]

Do I need Ice Beam and/or supers in the Volcano? I guess I could get supers there if I had Ice.
After some initial exploration I can't go further in the Volcano. I can do another sweeping of Kraid->Cavern, there's a few greyed out areas and obviously I can bomb every block. I got Varia, ball, grip, jump boots, long beam and missiles. I'd like to get another hint at this point :)

I didn't use the chozo hint mode and the stuff is well concealed in this hack. Ah well. I don't think that's bad for the hack nor that every hidden path should be marked by an obvious block as the one up in the screenshot.

You can look for super missile in volcano now.
Ice beam is not required.
