Metroid Fool

Dedicated to each and every person who has ever taken this game a bit too seriously

Re-discover Tallon IV now that most of it's rooms have been filled with perplexing puzzles, jovial japes and even a few sacrilegious stinkers. Do you have what it takes to endure them all?

Features

This hack is the first to explore the new script-editing tools created for the randomprime patcher. As a result, edits to rooms provide much more "dynamic" 😏 interactions with the player than in any previously released mod. It also makes use of all the usual patcher features (e.g. shuffled items/elevators/doors, quality of life improvements etc...) seen previously.

This description of features is intentionally vague; All you need to know is I spent a lot of time trying to make this one interesting and memorable. While this project started as a glorified shitpost, I ended up getting extremely invested and it very well be my magnum opus. I promise you have never seen anything like this.

Difficulty

This hack is hard. It is intended for players who have spent a non-trivial amount of time learning the likes of the speedrun, the randomizer and other sequence-breaking runs. If you do not feel like you have a strong foundation for the techniques required by those types of runs, this hack may not be for you.

Example: 5-bomb jumps (e.g. UBJ) and wallcrawling are not required, but NSJ Frigate Crash Site climb is

Before you play

Please do not unnecessarily spoil the contents of this hack when discussing in chat rooms or voice channels. If you are on the fence between playing this or watching someone else play, I would highly recommend you play it first as this hack includes some surprises which can only be experienced once.

Also, please note that some unique lore is provided in and around Artifact Temple. No lore text outside of this area has been modified. I'm telling you this so you don't scan everything in fear of missing out.

How to Play (Windows)

  1. Download the release .zip attached to the latest release

  2. Extract the contents into a folder

  3. Double click patch.bat and select your Gamecube Metroid Prime ISO when prompted. If successful, a file called metroid-fool-vX.Y.iso will be created in the same folder

  4. Drag and drop that ISO into Dolphin's main window, or load onto storage media and open with Nintendont

Check here first if you're stuck in a specific room.

View this only if you are completely lost or have already finished the game.
