I'm having fun with it. Got to the Kraid area last night and I look forward to getting killed by the many hazards and monsters.

That was a hard as balls shinespark from the chozo ruins to the pirate ship.

It was more like 5 shinesparks, 100% speedruns of this must be crazy.

Tfw i realize there's a second row of e-tanks

I have reached Chozodia in ~90 minutes. Wasn't attempting to complete this quickly but I think I have enough time to beat it in under 2hours for the speedrun ending...wish me luck.

I reached Chozodia in 3 and a half hours. I thought Mother Brain was going to be an impossible boss until I beat her. And now I'm convinced Meta Ridley is also an impossible boss.

yeah i beat regular ridley in one try, but the one time i tried fighting meta ridley so far i don't think i even figured out how to damage him before he killed me lol.

I havent finished this game yet or anything, but I can safely say it's my favorite metroid game I've played.

The Brinstar ballspark super missile took me forever 12 years ago but its like imprinted in my muscle memory and i busted it out in one attempt.

I know what youre talking about but I havent attempted getting it yet nor can I even wrap my head around how to go about doing it.

im going to try for 100% on hard mode. when you get to chozodia, can you go back to the other areas? i don't really get how that works.

I looked up how to get space jump right after ice beam, and I did, but then I went and fought the first form of the bug boss, and now I'm stuck in Ridley. Is there any way out other than fighting the incredibly hard second form and getting super missles?

There is an exit in the room just right of the elevator, look for some bomb blocks in the top left of that room.

i did that, and i got to have access to most of the Ridley dungeon (even picked up a super missile), but I still don't know how to get back to Norfair besides beating Ridley.

I guess I'll just buckle down and fight Ridley with two health tanks and 24 missiles.

24? You playing on hard mode? Good luck. The way the guy at AGDQ played the fight is actually really easy to do, it just looks harder than it is.

Yeah its hard mode. I'll take a look at that run to steal some strats.

I don't understand how he makes it so Ridley doesn't use the tail move. How lenient is the safe spot between his feet? sometimes I feel the tail move just happens and I don't know why.
