Long story short, I've finished a Samus Aran wad about a year back after feeling inspired from playing Metroid Dreadnought, meaning to keep it's release scheduled for 2.2. Well, it turns out I've changed my mind! Let's make it happen for 2.1!

Before I release it, I'll need to capture some multiplayer footage for a trailer, and test the wad out in a large-scale server environment so I can make some balance tweaks or perhaps bugfixes if needed! Using Samus drastically changes the game's playstyle, so if you need info, this documents everything.(...spoiler warning, I guess?)

EDIT: Testing session's all done! Thanks for coming, everyone! Expect Samus to release early into next week!

Please PM me or reply here(your Discord/Skype would be handy) if this sounds like your thing, I'd like to gather an 8+ Match server! We'll mostly be playing Samus' variation of Match mode, but I'll probably do a quick run through Coop beforehand to get everyone used to Samus.

I feel like this is very complex for a game centered around flow and momentum, but it looks similar to Proto, which happens to be one of my favorite character wads of all time. I'm interested to see how much she changes the game. Consider me interested! (Discord is Lach#9444, Skype is cyanpiano)

Good taste; one of my favorite Doom mods B)

EDIT: OK I'm now reading the doc and it literally is just Dreadnought in SRB2, I am into this

I should probably add that the test session will go up either this Tuesday, Wednesday, or Friday at around the same time of this post. (8/9PM GMT) Depends on the majority's preferences!

My own Discord is GoldenShine#9065
 
Oh my good god yes. Please sign me up. I don't know what my availability's going to be like in terms of netplay, but I have Thursday and Friday off, so maybe either of those days would be good for me? Either way, I'd be glad to give you feedback and pick out any bugs I come across.

God, I'm so fucking psyched that this is a thing. The spritework looks terrific too, if I'm being honest.
 
Oh yeah Metroid in SRB2!

I've seen so many things with just 3 screenshots, i willing to see this!

Yeeeesss, Prime 4 and a 2D game all at once! Looks like the Samus wad will be a celebration of Metroid rather than a soothing of the pain after all!

I've just started up the Discord server! Add GoldenShine#9065 if you want to join in, or PM me if you can't but think you can join the netgame itself still.

I appreciate the work that has gone into this project, and I am anticipating it heavily. Though could you shrink that image down? It dislikes mobile heavily.

Also, welcome back.
