Metroid + Saving ( + Map + Wavy-Ice) 0.3
by snarfblam


What's New In 0.3?
------ --- -- ---
Version 0.3 fixes a bug that could prevent the game from booting correctly, especially with a PowerPak. (Thanks to TheFox and bunnyboy for help fixing it.)

What Does It Do?
---- ---- -- --
Metroid + Saving adds a saving feature to Metroid, similar to that of Zelda or the FDS version of Metroid, but sexier. There is also a scrollable minimap displayed when the game is paused. Ice and wave beams are no long mutually exclusive. Aquire both and you'll have a more powerful ice beam that waves and goes through walls.


How Do I Use It?
--- -- - --- --
Use an IPS patcher such as Lunar IPS (LIPS) to apply the patch to an original, unmodified ROM. If you have a problem, verify your ROM. The PRG ROM CRC32 is 70080810. The file MD5 is B2D2D9ED68B3E5E0D29053EA525BD37C, though due to header variations, a perfectly valid ROM may not produce the same MD5.


Assembling The Source
---------- --- ------
The source code is in the "source" folder. The main file is "Metroid Plus.asm". This file is meant to be assembled with snarfblASM and applied to a ROM expanded with Editroid. Details are included in "Metroid Plus.asm". Note that the source does NOT include necessary additional graphics.
