Over the Moon

Hack of Metroid

Description

You play as Bessie, bio-engineered weapon under the employ of the Ax, a powerful alien species that has been monitoring Earth for hundreds, if not thousands of years. They maintain their secrecy by destroying any evidence of their presence. That's where you come in.
It is your mission to travel into the Bloom Lake Research Facility and erase the data being stored in the central server. Unfortunately, this server is inaccessible without the two passcodes, each protected by powerful defense robots kept elsewhere in the facility.

Explore the BLRF in search of weapons and equipment while avoiding dangerous robots and hazards, track down the two passcodes, and find your way through the security systems to destroy the main computer.

Over the Moon is the creator's first attempt at a serious total-conversion romhack, and is based on a metroidvania idea he had for a few years about a gun-wielding alien cow. It features a brand new map, new sprites, and slightly modified gameplay (health drop values are increased, missiles are more rare and more valuable)

The main idea for OTM was to take the traditional Metroid format and remove all the boring parts: Long corridors and repetitive climbing, grinding for health, getting lost and having to backtrack, and the end result is, what the creator hopes, a much more streamlined and concise Metroid experience.

The game is fairly open-ended, with the player's choice of which areas to visit in which order, and new things to do depending on the kind of equipment the player chooses to use and in what order they are picked up.
