25 Years of Metroid in one image is no easy task.
This is by far one of the most ambitious things I ever tried to tackle. For the anniversary of one of my all time favorite series' however.. I had to pull out every stop.
It was a blast though

Just made this my desktop background. Hopefully that's no issue since I won't be using it otherwise. This is a wonderful piece, really quite impressive. I just got back into Metroid lately with trying the Metroid Prime Trilogy, and this pic really appealed to me ^^

Holy sh*t! You made this too!

Now that I'm looking through your stuff, you seem to be responsible for a lot of the album art I've seen and loved.

So, I've talked to the artist of the HoaH covers.

He found it weird that it was down, he talked about to the hoster.

I don't think the official website will come back though, but at least, you can download all music at the Metroid database website.

I noticed after I searched Harmony of a Hunter download.

If you want to torrent the crossfaded tracks, use MDB. If you want the non-crossfade, you need to use Mediafire, which is a pain because unless you have Pro, you'll get an ad for each track. If you don't torrent and want the single tracks, retropixel is fastest.

This is what I used for the non-crossfade tracks:
metroid.retropixel.net/feature…

Sadly, I don't think HoaH101 has a non-crossfade version.

Well, I already got all the albums, I'm oonly saddened that I can't share it anymore to others, unless I've to use my own copy to share around.

Yo, if you guys need the tracks uploaded which are different from MDB's, I can add my albums on dropbox and give you some links. Though I believe they have crossfades in them because thats how the album was mastered. It's been a few years so I'm not 100% sure.

As for the official site: He wanted to get it all onto shinesparkers itself eventually but it's much less of current priority since the albums are so old.

I think it's really funny you guys have run into eachother from other groups (or pages?). Clearly have the same tastes! United!

I love how the only reference to Other M is the tiny Bottle Ship in the corner. It's like "The whole Metroid series... and Other M."

LightningArts In reply to Metroidman97 [2015-07-07 00:59:29 +0000 UTC]

You caught me, man!Β  I had no interest at all in including other M on here but I knew I had to. Thing is though, there is barely much iconic stuff from that game anyway. Most of it are things from other games, and Adam, I guess.Β  But I'm not putting Adam on this. Screw that guy.

I can't described how awesome this.All of Metroid's history in one beautiful whole.
I especially love the center piece, where it all started.
And both albums are amazing! Can't believe their free. And the art for each album is awesome too.

Best tribute EVER!

Thank you!

I put a lot of thought into how I wanted this to be composed. A whole month of just planning it all out. So I really wanted to carefully represent everything I possibly could. I'm glad it paid off!

And I'm really glad to have been part of the tribute album. The first one is one of my favorites of all time.

I'd say you did the series some great justice.Β  I especially like in the middle, with the reference to where it all began.Β  Right in the nostalgia.

Thanks man! I can tell you're a huge Metroid fan, so I'm sure you can definitely appreciate all the effort I went through to come up with what to reference and how to do it. Still probably one of the most heavy projects I've done when it comes to that. A straight month of layout and picking images...

Thank you! Glad you checked out the album before, it seems to be offline at theΒ  moment- swapped out for Harmony 101.Β  Personally, the first one is my favorite.

They both have excellent tracks. They're both amazing though, it's all Metroid!

I feel as if I tried to praise this,I'd just be insulting it.It's just to majestic for words.

Oh but you just did praise it. And it wasn't insulting at all! Much <3
