Hello retrogamers,
I came across this well-made fangame based on the original Metroid and figured some of you might enjoy it. Its basically just like the original title, but with a number of improvements: omni-directional scrolling; a map system; stackable and toggleable upgrades; better animations; music from both the first and 3rd titles (but remixed); two versions of each boss; much better level design; tons of secrets, and three game modes + room editor, among other things.
It took me about 6 1/2 hours to beat Planet Novus at 92%, or about three times the length of my average Metroid 1 playthrough (I'm no speed runner).
Anyway, if you're a fan of the original, chances are you'll enjoy this.
Happy gaming!
