README for Release Version 1.1 - 5/5/2014

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Updates for Version 1.1

1. Minor changes to title screen
2. Corrected an issue with the Norfair level design.  If a person falls to the bottom of the water/sewer falls without missiles then they won't be able to acquire the high jump and get out of that area. 
3. Corrected map (minor graphics) in Plus version 
4. Modified the level design so you need to have the high jump to acquire the bombs
5. Added/Modified creatures in areas
6. Removed one perma-stuck spot
7. Minor cosmetic modifications

.IPS Versions:

Metroid_Incursion.IPS = Standard Weapons and Original Gameplay
Metroid_Incursion_Plus.IPS = Added pause mini map, Wavy Ice weapon, Save game feature

Why 2 versions?
"Plus" adds the map system and wavy ice which are amazing hacks.  Some areas are easier to complete with the wavy ice such as the final Tourian area.  The wavy ice mod increases the strength of the ice weapon also.  Over all this version makes the game easier to complete.  If you want a  
challenge then try the standard version first before playing the Plus version. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How to apply .IPS:

Download Lunar IPS
Place a original copy of Metroid in a folder with Lunar IPS
Place Metroid_Incursion.IPS in the folder with Lunar IPS
Run Lunar IPS and select "Apply IPS Patch"
 - selectr IPS file to use
 - select file to patch
Done

I would recommend that you copy your original twice and rename it:

Metroid_Incursion
Metroid_Incursion_Plus

And then apply the two IPS versions to the two files

Creation of this MOD was a long journey starting in April 2011.  Like most projects of this magnitude life tends to get in the way and long periods of  
Inactivity result.  Finishing this mod was a big goal for me and I'm happy to say that I was able to see it through to the end.  I hope everyone who  
plays this MOD thoroughly enjoys it.
