Hack List 2.5

Quote from Cardweaver:

Super Metroid: Soup is a full hack and its 3/4 of the way done.

I think Dmantra's is called Super Metroid: Cliffhanger

Fano7's is called Super Metroid: Crazy

Ooooh, soup is a full hack. I thought it was a half-hack and was still looking forward to it.

You should, cause it's incredibly awesome.

Can you name the half and full hacks in order from easiest to hardest [not counting Easy and Hard]?

Difficulty is a very subjective thing, but I'd say it's something like Legacy->SFI->Dependence->Gravy/Puddin->Limit->Darkness Spreads/Golden Dawn->Redesign->Impossible/Noobsmasher/Glitchtroid

Breathe in the Future, Breathe out the Past

Heres a little preview of my hack.
It's nothing special, the music is the best part actually..

That looks really good. I do hope those one square mockballs and hbj are not in the final version though ;o

Every Bit Counts

Quote from DMantra:

It's called cliffhanger because there are no midair platforms, ...

But there are some floating platforms in that vid that you just posted.

Breathe in the Future, Breathe out the Past

damptraktor, they'll be in the final version, but I'll also make a version where stuff like that isn't required to proceed. I want to make a hard hack, but also a hack most people can play through.

fano7, well let's not be too literal, instances where I do use platforms is purely for aesthetics and to serve the purpose of the rooms layout and puzzles. Those floating boxes in WS were in a factory where it looks like these boxes were being transported via conveyer belt/crane/conveyer belt. that blue brinstar underwater bit did have platforms, but it helped me utilize getting a full rooms size when samus can only jump 4 squares high.

That looks really awesome. I look forward to playing it. And I hope it's really hard too. 8-)

DMantra, I'm impressed with your aesthetics, and it looks like it'll be fun when it's done. Though I gotta say, wall-jumping the shaft without platforms is more tedious than fun, in my opinion. I feel like there's better things you could do there. The fact that it's my only complaint is pretty good, though.

What did you use to film that? Aegis is complete enough that I could throw together a teaser for it, but I don't know the first thing about it. I'm tech-savvy enough to figure it out, but I don't know the tools...

By the few looks of it, he used the SNES 9X AVI recorder. I'm not sure what version, though, but it's not version 1.51. 1.43, perhaps?

version 1.4.0.0 and windows movie maker. not much really, compared to whats out there for free right now to edit film.

Acheron86, usually during dry spells on the hack I end up returning to old rooms to work on them, chances are lots of these shafts will have more to them, everything gets reshaped when I'm bored. The original basis was just wall jumping, but it evolved over time to be a myriad of challenges and puzzles, much in the same style of Cardweaver's hacks (fun and challenging concepts rolled into one). This hack will feature chozo lore for every subworld, and subtle hints in the aesthetics of an era that recently passed. This alone has been the hardest thing for me, cause I won't settle on a typical easy to produce story that's forgotten/ignored in the gameplay realm of the hack. I want the lore to be sought, and this gives double meaning to the word 'cliffhanger'.

Well, just thought I'd give all of you an update. ~~SM:Soup is 25 rooms away from being done. Keep in mind that 18(i think) of those are Tourian.~~

edit: only Tourian to be done now.

Yeah, I'll add all this once I clear an Ugly Dentist Appointment, a Humanities Test and a stupid essay.

Cardweaver

I looked at the definitions on the hack list site, and have determined that Soup is a 2/3 hack. Its more involved than a half, but nowhere near a full.
