PROJECT BASE

VERSION 0.8 — DECEMBER 31 2020

It's here.

Project Base's edits have ALL been documented and organized.

This will make it easier to add new code into future updates, and for the creation of player-made ‘custom builds’. The source code for it will be released later.

Here is some of what's new in version 0.8:

ABOUT

TITLE SCREEN

Project Base is a Super Metroid ROM hack with smoother mechanics, level edits, new content, graphic edits, custom code, and much more. It can be played on Snes9x, higan/BSNES, ZSNES, repro carts, SD2SNES, SNES Classic Mini, and probably anything else that is able to load Super Nintendo games.

The difficulty level of Project Base is roughly the same as Super Metroid's difficulty level, which means that completing the game does NOT require any glitches or advanced techniques (not even walljumps). The current release is stable and fully playable.

If you don't like spoilers, you should download and play it now before going to any of the other links on this page.

WATCH TRAILER

Don't know how to play it? The easiest way is to download a SNES emulator, open the emulator, and then open the Project Base .SMC file in the emulator. Wanna play it with a controller or your SNES console? SD2SNES (more expensive) and repro carts (less expensive) are good options. For emulators, most USB controllers will work.

SPECIAL THANKS:

The PB speedrunning community has clocked countless hours streaming, routing, finding bugs, and promoting the game. Future versions will be much more polished because of your work.

Charity marathons that feature Project Base are great. Hopefully ROM hacks as a donation incentive will keep gaining momentum.

squishy_ichigo for creating Vanilla++, which inspired me to create the first version of PB

AdvancedPillow for the Project Base and Hollow Eve/B2-TW cartridge sets!

Ultime Decathlon for including PB as one of the speedrun games for their event. AWESOME.

Ryan Barrett for adding PB to MDb.

Circ for previously hosting this page and my main site for a million years.

And THANK YOU to everybody else who takes their time to play PB, mention it to others, report bugs, post opinions, and do things.
