I love how the 'new' Maru Mari looks. Slick, organized, well-done.

But, where did you get that 'hands-up' Kraid Sprite on the title image? It looks awfully familiar to the one on Kabutroid's [url=www.kabutroid.com]Planet Zebeth[/url] sprite sheet. You didn't steal it without his permission now, did you?

Quote from Toozin:
That was from a different game entirely, actually.

Thought I recognized it. It's from Adventure Island, right?

Back to how you should do it with Metroid Prime.

Personally, I'd rather see it like Sess' example, with ripped images from Prime.

I had one idea about how you could do it, but when I think about it... it wouldn't be funny. It would rely too much on text-based humor. Then again, visual humor IS hard to do with 3D images you can't really modify as you want.

Yeah, Prime would look cool, but doing it would take some time, wouldn't it?

Hey, wait a minute here. I just noted that Houston chases Kraid while shooting in the logo. How is that possible, when he himself states that he "don't have a working gun" in the first Ask Houston?

(do I hang up on details too much?)

Actually, that would be the second time he's admitted having a gun that does nothing. He also said it when Samus picked up the Ice Cream. I noticed him shooting in the logo and why that is wrong too, but I really don't think it's that important.

The logo was made before either of those comics were. Besides, the logo doesnt have anything to do with maru mari plot wise. its just kinda there to look stupid.

Some Questions for ask Houston:

Why don't you have a working gun?
Why are you going into Bounty Hunting?
Why are you blue?
Why do you wear chozo armour?
Have you tried hitting on Samus?

About HBA:

It's supposed to be an RPG, right? Can you just do me the favour to NOT have Random Encounters in it? I really hate that, it can ruin any game. It would be oh-so-much-better to have it like EarthBound, with the enemies on-screen at the entire time and chase you when you come close.

Or Chrono Trigger, right Kenny?

HBA is going to be alot like other metroids, as you will have alot of freedom. it was in my original plans to have enemies veiwable on the world map. You can avoid them in more ways than one too, you can run around them, lure them to areas, and even jump over them. Even though its an RPG, its going to be alot like the rest of the metroid games. there will be alot of exploring and back tracking, you can choose to avoide fights, and so on and so fourth. theres also 4 endings, each endings a different picture. theres one for any time any % items, under x hours (havent decided yet) any %, any time and 100%, and under x hours and 100%.

any other questions? let me know!

PLEASE tell me Houston doesn't strip for for the better endings like Samus would in a normal Metroid game. That gives me a VERY unpleasant mental image.

Looking good so far. I'm really looking forward to when this thing's finished, it has a lot of potential to be a really good and imaginative game.

Heh, I think somebody will spellcheck the whole thing before this is over.

Dang, Samus needs one of those kick-ass flame missles.

thats just a small portion of Houstons Tools as well. theres going to be a lot of skills and such like that. i think something like 30 with all characters combined. maybe more.

Also, there will be over 130 things to find on the world map.
