RDX Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 It's official; this project is being made by middle schoolers. I'm pretty sure every little boy goes through the phase of wanting to make a video game. I say, let it be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexR Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 I THINK YOU'RE JUST JEALOUS BECAUSE WE LIKE SUPER METROID AND YOU DON'T.Learn some damn reading comprehension skills, are you 5? And yes, I DO like to end my sentences with a period. It's called "punctuation". What are you talking about? We all know that changing the physics of an old, classic engine turns out GREAT. If it turns out SO GREAT, then FUCK OFF, and quit whining and screaming about this project dieing out. I like super metroid, dumbass, that's EXACTLY why I took on the job of programming the remake? DUUUH? The guy obviously signed up just to troll this thread. Yeah, and you're helping a lot here. Is every other person who signs up here a troll to you? I guarantee you, I'm not a troll, but when assholes bitch about a game I worked my balls off to even START, that's when I get mad. It's official; this project is being made by middle schoolers. So what if it is, mr. maturity? Are you going to cry and whine about it like all the others? Piss off, and give some people a chance.

And, in his final fit of 12 year old rage, the hypocritical boy swoops in to deal the final blow, hoping to regain reigns of the thread by establishing his mighty superio-- Oh wait, you're the only one screaming and whining in this thread. I don't speak for all, but they way you've acted in this thread might turn off programmers from looking to work on this thing. Good day.

The Phalanx Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 This thread. Seriously I've seen better whining on /v/, of all places. Way to go, AlexR. You've successfully ruined any interest this forum may have for the game. Good job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rozovian Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 I programmed it, and what? Did you not expect me to stand up and fight back? And we are in need of a programmer(s) because our own abandoned us. This makes for an intersting contrast. -- Seriously tho, it's not fair to the OP to take the thread into lolfest/trollfest-territory. Whatever good advice we have has been said and seconded, let them make the game however they want. Good luck with the project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexR Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 This makes for an intersting contrast.Good luck with the project. I programmED it. I don't program it. I like this project, but I quit because my skill levels kept on changing and when I found myself hating my own engine, it was too far in production to just start from scratch. I said "Fuck it" and quit. And well i thought it was too much for 1 programmer to handle an entire project. I didn't "ABANDON" anything. @neblix And why must I care for what you have to say? @Phalanx Way to help out here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not too much, Notch could do it (minecraft is considerably larger than a metroid copy). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazygecko Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 I think the chances for these types of projects are very slim unless a dedicated programmer is at the very core of the group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dafydd Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 From what I've seen, most projects like this fail because the programmers drop out (or were never there). It's actually kind of heartwarming to see someone try to recruit new ones. For Game Maker, no less. Based on the screens on the blog, it's just going to look like the GBA games? I'd be interested in helping with this if it were an HD remake or something that really improved on the original and brought it up to date. If it's just going to be pixel art, then what's the point? Super Metroid is one of the best looking games on the SNES. Seriously, does anyone think an HD version of Super Metroid would even be fun to play? I have a hard time imagining the feel of the original could be captured in higher resolutions or with higher-quality sound. Of course, it would be kinda awesome to play another platformer with Super Metroid physics. EDIT: Added the apparently necessary quote.

I have a hard time imagining the feel of the original could be captured in higher resolutions or with higher-quality sound. Of course, it would be kinda awesome to play another platformer with the same physics as in Super Metroid. They don't want to keep the feel of Super Metroid. They're basically remaking it with Zero Mission sprites, physics, and sound.

Dafydd Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 I read the rest of the thread, Neblix, thank you. I was trying to hijack the thread for a theoretical discussion unrelated to its original purpose. I guess I should have quoted the post where an HD remake was mentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I should have quoted the post where an HD remake was mentioned. It was supposed to add on to the overall feel of suspense and darkness, not just 32bit graphics. Imagine walking into a room, seeing a broken chozo statue with super creepy music popping up, that would be the awesome. But right now, FSMR can't even get a grip on the engine.
