/vr/ - Retro Games

neither are practical

How so explain

You can sprite swap and hack the physics to be a super shitty approximation of Samus' physics but it would never feel authentic, just super fast Belmont with unlimited daggers and no whip.

You might be able to make a Metroid map that was like Castlevania but the bosses would be all wrong

How do feel about (soma cruz) In metroid zero mission . I do worry about the the map design not complementing there gameplay

>>6314339
both would take a lot of work.

to hack samus in, you need to both 1) understand how samus works in the original game and 2) understand how castlevania makes collision queries against the map, enemies, and projectiles. knowing these things, you could drop samus' code into castlevania and replace the appropriate metroid queries with castlevania queries. of course this looks past shit like status menus etc.

hacking the castlevania map into metroid would probably be more straight forward, but also more work, because you would have to not only hack in map data, but graphics, pallets, and any special effects as well (like the bats in the background or worse unique terrain features with special programming).

given your question, you almost certainly do not have the skill to do it yet. moreover, gba isn't covered by this board

No reason there couldn't be a whip other than if you're a /vr/ aspie

>>6314472
just stop.

>>6314576
no

Why would Samus have a whip? You can do sprite swaps easily there are even tools for some kind of roms if all you want is for it to LOOK like a different character. That's what all those ridiculous "Super Mario Brothers 12" games are

Is this the daily boneposting thread?

Putting Samus in Castlevania sounds more plausible than the other way around. SotN-likes generally only use collision as a means to break down walls whereas Metroid is built around needing different tools. The best you could really do is use Soma's slide + two-hander arching weapons, but you'd have to eliminate all of the game's preference for specific weapons to break down certain obstacles and make them all "breakable walls." Maybe if you strategically placed certain weapons in place of augments, like the aforementioned two-handed swords/axes, and maybe the handgun for hitting blocks from a distance.

Meanwhile, Samus' wall jump alone would completely break Castlevania, but at least make playing it an attainable feat. That doesn't even factor in the space jump which would basically win the game as soon as you get it. But, it sounds like a plausible enough novelty that wouldn't be a complete nightmare to make the game beatable without it just being a cosmetic map swap.

Because she literally has a whip?

Ask and you shall receive.

I get that anons aren't big fan of boneposting but hell I honestly find most of them pretty funny.

>>6314339
Anon it would be a tremendous amount of work to even do badly and even though it may look "neat" it most certainly would not play well. These games may be of the same genre but they do play differently and the layout and enemies are designed for the characters of their respective games.

Contact the guy who put Yoshi into Sonic 2.
