Description
I still remember the chills when I met this boss for the first time!It was a hell to create this water effect on the walls, and still doesn't look smooth as I'd like.
This whole scene needed several hours and days, I'm pretty happy with the results; I planned to fade Draygon's figure with the abyss shadows
in the animation, it resulted a bit different from what I had in mind but I'm comfortable with it.
This game is carved in my bones, I have big gratitude to it.. and fear too...

Wow, very nice!
Back when games could, with a few pixels, a stroke of music, make you feel.

Extremely well done. I never did play this game, it came a bit before my time, but I've always loved watching people play it at GDQ, it's been the highlight for me.

Wakes nostalgic feelings, from my childhood. I loved playing Metroid at that time. The good old jump and run games, I miss them today...^^"

This is astoundingly good. Really captures the horrifying, exciting feeling of the scene, and the animations really add to it. If Super were ever translated into 3d, I imagine the environment would look like this.

Dude this is a fantastic piece!! Well done!!! I love Draygon so much cuz you can just tell she’s a mom to the babies :’3 Also I have this game embedded in my brain too dude I’ve been trying to go for under an hour and 30 minutes from beginning to end and I think my best playthrough was just barely under two hours
but wow you’re very talented

Dayum! Look at this displacement effect! Only a SM fan to spend this amount of care into one piece. Great One!

Thank you ^^ You are absolutly right! But maybe "fan" is not an exact word to define the meaning this game has to me; these old games are my true education, my teachers and my earlier dreams and nightmares...
Super Metroid, Chrono trigger, Final fantasy7, Castlevania... and many others, I'm full of dreams and inspiration thanks to these

This looks insanely cool! Love the colour palette, love the way you shade with pixels, love the whole emotion and the creepiness of seeing him leering out of the shadows. Awesome!
