If you want to play randomizers with friends, consider multiworld randomizers like Archipelago. Player 1 might find the Screw Attack in their Lake Hylia island for player 3 while player 2 finds a Chaos Emerald in their Rogue Legacy Castle Hamson chest 1 for player 4, player 3 gets Equip Up for player 2 for beating Kraid and player 4 gets the Master Sword for player 1 for beating City Escape in SA2b. All multiworld seeds are beatable, if the other players take the effort to pick up the items for others. Another pretty good (auto)tracker is PopTracker, which is archipelago compatible as well.

Carbon dioxide posted:How does one get started with a randomizer? Almost all games with randomizers worth their salt have some sort of tracker available. Be it a companion program that hooks into the game/emulator or just a website you manually tick off what you get/explored. Those will tell you what is available in logic, available with glitches or just straight up not in logic yet. Most randomizers have various skill options, like Super Metroid only requiring tricks the game actually teaches you, up to requiring you to be able to do a reverse boss order run. Or aLttP requiring the lamp before making you go through dark rooms. Trackers can be told which settings you chose, so they shouldn't expect you to do things outside of your chosen skill/comfort level.

CptWedgie posted:Might also depend on the version you're playing. I can't say about old LTTP randomizers, but I vaguely recall hearing that Super Metroid used to consider suitless Norfair to be logical even if you're otherwise playing on the easiest possible settings. The VARIA Super Metroid randomizer has extremely granular difficulty controls. You can even create your own profile for what tricks you consider easy/hard/annoying/difficult/nightmarish and generate a seed around those settings. The default presets are pretty good, on the easiest settings it requires a fair bit of energy tanks before even considering Kraid in logic and definitely won't make you go into hot rooms without Varia Suit.
