Metroid game feedback2
I posted an earlier version of this game but i have spent a lot of time upgrading stuff. Controls:
Arrows move
A to shoot
Z to jump
S to aim up
X to aim down
down arrow crouches, press twice to morph into morph ball mode (use bombs wisely!!!)

I know its pretty slow, but in my SA player it runs smooth as butta. i recommend turning the quality on low so you get the best result Feedback?

Loved the original and this is pretty cool too. I think the play control is feeling pretty good. Got the bomb jump in there I see
Stuff I would work on next if I were you:
The jump response feels uneven - you start with a rapid boost upwards and then stall out. I would balance the begin and end of the jump to make a more fluid and single action.
Constrain the camera so it won't scroll into empty map data. (For each screen, add some kind of rectangle structure that stores the limits of the camera, when it's time to scroll, check against the limits) Do a fade in/out when you traverse between screens.
When in morph ball mode, you can still hit the aim buttons and jump to upright aiming positions. Ignore those buttons while in ball mode.
Start fleshing out hud artwork. I died when I got hit, so you must be recording health somewhere. Make it visible.
Keep up the good work!

its already pretty nice, but like you said the performance is atm. the weak spot.
- I noticed that when shooting it drops dramaticly therefore I assume you put a onCLipEvent(enterFrame) on each projectile - you could put those on the main loop and rather use a for() loop to animate and collision check them - it will be much faster- because using multiple onEnterFrame events slows down the flash player alot.
- Controls are not so nice on a non-US keyboard as the z for example in my case is switched with the y key.

The game is obviously working, but I can't make the character move. I've noticed this problem with other games and am guessing it's something mac related.

...yeah. For some reason in the browser it runs like poop but it runs great as a downloadable desktop game or something else like that. As for the tile design i guess i have to whip out my snes again and take notes as brokenfunction did with megaman vs metroid. If you want me to post the swf to get a lot better quality and what not you can ask. Just dont decompile it and take all the credit i did spending like 6-7 months on this demo . Sorry its not perfect i dont know how i would go and make it run faster. I built every tile as a group and there is no coding on the tiles themselves, its just a hittest for x and y on samus. I guess i could build everything in groups then break them all apart for the finished product, but then i would have to save my file as 2 different versions. Any recommendations or ya want the swf?

Quick bug note, when you open a door and press the opposite direction button just when hero character enters another area, the character ends up at the top of the tiles.
