Its a great sequel and nostalgia hits me hard.

If you have played a lot of hacks, playing this after 2 years since i played Freeze Flame, this hack impacted me so much, veeeeeeery recommendable.

Simply amazing.

Now seriously, a fusion hack where non-linearity is perfectly done? You don't get those often.
The recolors are great and the beams are Pog. This is just brilliant.

Super Metroid - GBA Edition by The Brothers Crafters [MZM Exploration], rated by SN_Ivan on Jan 14, 2021 (Star Star Star Star Star )

It's literally SM but better. Normally I elaborate myself more on reviews but thats really it for me. SM but the controls don't SUCK so its pretty good

Definitely a good hack. I really liked the theming of it, nice gameplay, intuitive and fun. What else do you want? Recommend

I am not a huge fan of DOOM so what do I know. From my experience the tileset was pretty neat.
I really liked the erasure of walljumping so you have to do some ice beam shenanighans. I also really really liked that spacejump was replaced with double jump, very original. I liked the map design. Really solid hack. Definitely worth playing.
Metroid Subzero by Conner [MZM Quick Play], rated by SN_Ivan on Mar 28, 2020 (Star Star Star Star Star )

Short hack, simple, well done and good theme. Definitely felt a lot like Deep Freeze without copying it which is a great sign. Plasma barrier is super counterintuitive. Very recommendable hack. Keep it going king!

Simple, original and very solid. Very Good gameplay and it didn't feel unfair at any point of the hack. The HP thing i speacially liked.

You know what they say, if something is good, the simpler the better.

Don't look at the completion time, i messed up really badly with sequence breaks, awful HBJs and Suitless maridia (which is doable to a point)

Overrall, really good hack i enjoyed it a lot. Almost perfect design, the rooms were as good as a regular metroid game, little mistakes here and there with graphics or weird slopes but, in general, very very good design, also it is a long hack.

The only thing i'm complaining there was waaay too much backtracking, and that ruins a bit the experience, maybe some shortcuts or connections because it really is bad.

Power Bomb grind is also an issue but not nearly as big as backtracking.

By the way, this hack is speedrun worthy, routing this has to be really interesting.

I liked the style and the progression. Some items were in random not very intuitive blocks but hey, what can you do with M2 tileset. Short, fresh and good. Recommend
