What it is
A Super Metroid ROM hack in the spirit of Loop Hero. Samus starts in a map room with Morph Ball and a handful of credits. Its station opens a board where you lay rooms door to door, from cards in your hand, until a loop runs out and back home.
- Each loop deals new rooms. Item spots roll again. Ammo is lost, but suits and beams stay.
- Enemies and bosses toughen every loop. Kills and rooms crossed pay credits.
- Cards drop from enemies: free rooms, and modifiers like Treasure and Nest.
- Kraid, Phantoon, Draygon and Ridley wait below elevators you link into the board.
- Choose your difficulty, start room and seed when a new cycle begins.
- Most cycles end in the abyss. That's the game: clear the file and begin another.
