Super Metroid

With millions of Mario Maker levels being created between this and the previous NSMB-style game, I was wondering how long this would take. Think a Mario Maker update or other announcement will come with this? Looks great.

They finally did it. I complain about the company more than most, and it’s tempting to nitpick on some things about this remake, but ultimately it just makes me happy to see it.

Check out the “Chain” counter. Some proper camera movement during cutscenes. The % indicator that increases when dealing and taking damage. The ! indicator for timed hits - one of the timed hits did damage to both enemies. “Can’t Block” indicator on some attacks like Flame Wall so you dont have to guess. And i wonder whats up with the scene at 1:22 with Mallow and Geno surfing around on rainbow road or whatever… Lots of interesting things here. No mention of SquareEnix. Looking forward to more info.

e: It does say copyright Nintendo/Square Enix on the release date screen. How’d they pull this off?

VS 2022 is finally somewhat usable for Git using the git Changes pane. The whole team uses it this way, and for many of them it’s a first for git as well.

Well done. Thanks, hero.

This alyaza character seems like a real gem. I’m imagining all the curious refugees checking the place out for the first time, seeing all of this censorship irony, and promptly going straight back to reddit.

and the paragraphs and paragraphs of intentional lowercase. at least, as an admin, they seem very engaged with the community.

The in-game overlay (shift + tab) is also quite different now too. I think I like the changes overall, at least compared to other platforms like Twitch, YouTube, Reddit in the past 5 years, where every unsolicited update seems to just make it worse.
