Criminally underrated hack. I had a blast (pun intended)and learnt me some new moves with this satisfying and addictive gem.

I've only beat hyper, ancient chozo, oxide and ascent but this hack is my favorite. It's pretty addictive, the maps flow and the difficulty is perfectly balanced (for me anyway), 10/10 must play.

This hack is almost a bit too open as I felt like I got to some areas and items too early, and it was a bit disorienting yet made for a bit of a challenge. The graphics are gorgeous, the colors pop, the maps, rooms and tiles are both unique/top-notch and the controls are tight and snappy. My biggest complaint is some bosses are just super-duper ammo sponges. Especially Ridley. It's an easy fight that lasts forever due to the sheer amount of missiles and super missiles this absolute unit of a boss can tank. Who do I sue for carpal tunnel, amirite you guys? And yes you read that right, my completion time is 9+ hours (game is huge) because i was searching for beams forever and literally finding everything else instead. As far as replay value goes it's the king of that hill. Also probably the most freedom of any SM hack i've played and almost had a "freestylish" feel to it so traversing the maps was very satisfying.
