Really awesome Metroid NES hack, the first one that has hooked me like the original game, even to the point of doing speedrun attempts!
I really liked that this hack understood the skills and limitations of the protagonist, in this case Junko, and designed the rooms/areas/game around this. Even to the point that you could access to the final area of the game from the beginning (SPOILER: though I wonder if 0% is even possible given that you need missiles for the boss just like the original game).
In any case, I created an account just to praise this hack in every aspect, even making it fun to speedrun which I never thought I would so for a Metroid NES hack! I also love that a manual and boxart were created for this hack! Talk about quality of life aspects! (It would have been nice to see some more artwork/background story for this hack, but it is already great as it is!)
If there's anything I could possibly suggest, is for a way to get a 100% confirmation. I know the original game also didn't do this, but would be a nice addition, specially if other people might speedrun this.
Again, great Metroid NES hack, pretty fun and accessible for everyone, perhaps even more so than the original game in terms of difficulty and linear progression!
