I liked this.  The graphics looked great and the enhanced beam was a lot of fun.  My only gripe is that most of the areas, and the boss hideouts in particular, were much too linear.  It wasn't very "metroidy" in that regard.  Not enough hidden passages and secrets.  Really only the path to one item was a "hidden" path, the rest were all right there.  I still had fun overall though.

Thanks Donny.  The boss hideouts where somewhat linear by Design.  The goal was to keep it around (or even slightly under) a 2 hour play to complete.  The result was less of the maze feel of the original, I'd guess Metroid Incursion is only around 70% in size when compared to the original metroid.  I'm considering creating a second metroid hack with a much more vast world to explore, I just have to finish designing it and then commit to it.
