24 hour exclusive - The World Design of Metroid 1 and Zero Mission | Boss Keys
Added 2018-07-30 15:34:07 +0000 UTCBoss Keys is back, baby!
This is the first episode of season two, which I'm internally calling "Making a Metroidvania". I'll be looking at actual Metroid games, and some Castlevania games, and some indie Metroidvanias, to see what makes these things tick.
Hard to start at the start with Metroid 1, and its 2004 remake Metroid Zero Mission. Then next time, it's off to Super Metroid.
I will upload bigger versions of the graphs and link them in the description, so don't worry if you can't see that super tall ZM one!
Cheers
Mark
