This romhack, despite how "dated" it is, definitely left me satisfied with the time I put into it. My time was the 100% was 2:46, but my original run was 4:23 and it was quite enjoyable. I struggled with some of the new mechanics (Like how Shinesparking works) but overall it's a game I definitely see myself getting back into.

Linked is a video of my escape sequence with more than 3:10 on the clock! It was fun to push myself to get at least 3 minutes for the escape, for this romhack's escape sequence tries to test most of the tools at your disposal.

Highly recommended romhack!

I'm giving this romhack a 5 solely on the custom OST. The songs were catchy and good! As for the romhack in itself, despite being short, was quite fun! Favorite area by far though is the area that wasn't mandatory, and I don't know how to feel about that.

Original runtime was 2:10 hours as I got lost plenty of times and had to re-fill my HP a lot more than I ever did with other Metroid games, but it was still a fun experience.

Amazing hack. But the best part of it is being able to choose what you want and what you don't want.

Personally went with:
1. Redux
2. Classic Booster (Without this, it's like playing Contra with the R gun).
3. Redesigned Samus.
4. Redesigned Dual Suit.
5. Original Elevator Speed Fix.
6. Vanilla Beam Cooldowns.
7. Default X-Ray.

And the controls couldn't have been better, namely being able to go into roll jump just by pressing jump again.

Honestly a must-try, for it enhances the original game in every way.
