I saw Nintendo's Switch presentation and was super bummed that they still haven't announced a new Metroid game.



Practically I am waiting since 13 years for a new 2D installment and since Metroid Prime 3 which was released 10 years ago for another great 3D part (Prime 4, preferably developed by Retro Studios).



I am just not pleased how much care they gave to the franchise, so I made this, just to see how a new metroid 2D game could look like.





Restrictions:

This Animation is 1.5 times the size of Super Metroids Sprite, so at a height of ~70 pixels.

Which further means the sprite would be opptimized for a tilesize of 24x24 pixel.

The sprite a lso is done with a 32 color palette, so it'd be optimized for current handheld screensizes and smartphones, while maintaining the looks of classical 2D Metroids.
