Description
Two players, two controllers, control transfers between players every second. We saw lttp OneMind and decided that super metroid needs this as well.

Currently only supports both players using the same control scheme.

Parts of samus change color from green to blue to indicate which player has control. The visual aspect can probably be improved if we spend more time figuring out the best way to change samus' palette.

Currently has only been tested in Ceres, but a full game test will happen on Thursday.

Does what it says on the tin. Played through it with my brother with whom I've previously done a playthrough where each of us was in control of half the buttons, so for us, this was a different spin on that whole thing.

Only the beginning was difficult, mostly climbing Red Tower for early Power Bombs. From that point on, it mostly got easier. After getting Varia, we basically played as if we were playing on our own, just with less walljumping. Press vaguely the same stuff as eachother and adjust for any errors, without alternating our controls.

The visual representation of who's controlling Samus is pretty janky. There's no way to see who is in control while you have your beam charged, while you're morphed or while spinjumping with Screw Attack.

So all in all, this was kind of disgusting to play, but in a good way. It was a one-time thing for sure, I never want to play this hack again lol

Works really well, witnessed a playthrough at SGDQ this year (4p2c!!). Like BlackMage said, there are potential issues with seeing who's really controlling Samus at a given time, but it does switch every second so it's not much of an issue.
