Prime 2D Demo v0.1.21.4.1

SO to the creators of this amazing DEMO is there a chance we will one day see FULL GAME?!?! I think everyone wants to know this hahaha

I’ve 100% the demo so far and ma I just say, this is incredible and I really hope that your team plans to finish this project sooner rather than later. And who knows, maybe I could even beta test the finished project whenever it’s ready? wink wink

Look at that subtle ambient lighting.
The tasteful pixilation of it.
Oh my god. It even has water effects.

“Something wrong, Axion? You’re sweating …”

I have to go return some game cartridges.

In all seriousness, this is brilliant. High marks all around. A huge surprise to see that this project is still alive. Really blown away by the quality and detail. There isn’t much else I can say that others haven’t already. Going to read through the FAQ, then play it again.

Holy moly, you guys are fantastic! i’m so craving for a new 2D metroid and you guys delivered. awesome! btw, it runs fine on Linux via wine!

Hello Troid92 and fellow prime 2d fans! I seem to be having an audio issue, there is none ): . Has anyone run into this issue? I’m using windows 10 and I don’t believe the sound issue is on my end. I want to experience Prime 2D in its entirety and not having the sound with it would just be a crime.

Hi MasLegeis! This is the first report of this I have heard, so I hope we can get to the bottom of it. If you run the game using Command Prompt (cmd) or PowerShell, and if you send me a message with all of the text it displays, there is a good chance that information may help us proceed.

An easy way to do this is hold shift on the keyboard, right-click somewhere in the folder with all the game files (but not on a file), and choose the new “Open PowerShell window here” option. Then type PlayPrime2D, hit the tab key, and hit enter. Let me know if there are any issues!

I think I did it correctly? I don’t know if it makes a difference that I wasn’t running the game at the time. i couldn’t get my mouse cursor to leave the game

Great Job guys I hope this goes to market. I LOVE it already and cant wait to give you my money I hope $$NINTENDO$$ doesn’t do what they always do.

wicked stoked about this! April 1st is my birthday so I am glad that this wasn’t actually a joke for once lol Can not wait for full version ^-^

Do you have any idea when you will be finished?

I am not having this issue and I am running on windows 10 as well. Double-check your drivers and audio settings. Hope it works out cuz it sounds awesome!! >_<

Ah, hitting the tab key is an important step in there. The command will change from PlayPrime2D to .\PlayPrime2D.exe which should then run the game and display output.

Wow!

Amazing work Troid and team SCU members, can’t believe how far this project has come. The quality and polish of this demo is insanely high. I was very impressed how the light effects interact with Samus in the save room.

Also, thank you youtube recommendations :smile: So glad this came up!
Will play some more the next days, I want that 100% completion :slight_smile:

This is something i was waiting for a looongg time to see happen and you guys pull it off :sunglasses: :sunglasses: !!
I was playing the demo today I was just amazed and got my self back in the old days of playing metroid games. Such a awesome feeling.
Please continue on this project, it will come with success and ppl will remember you guyz for this. Love the Atmosphere, keeping the essence of the game, good soundtracks as they are also bit tweaked but good. Flexibility of aim is on point and amazing.
Ledge grab as in metroid Fusion and not to forget the battle of the H.I.V.E machine ( Aka brain) … Also a fusion boss, insanee!! Good battle and intense keep it up!!
Also keeping the items hidden and to search for and scanning is also part of the essence, perfect love it.
Up till now the game the feeling already of replayability which is a good sign.

Was and still am a hardcore Metroid gamer
Keep it up Prime 2D Team! I believe in you guyz!

Great game, thanks for the hardwork by the team!! Got to the 2nd save point, have a general feel, my biggest complaint would be the font though, very hard to read!

Regarding the keyboard-only status, I enjoyed this enough so I decided to remedy the problem with a JoyToKey mapping config for a generic XBOX gamepad, give it a shot, lemme know if it’s helpful! I think it’s pretty good, 2 styles, the best is using the batch file so the left analog stick also helps aim your firing in addition to movement. Instructions/details in the ReadMe.

I realize they’ll eventually had gamepad support, but this wasn’t terribly hard to put together… It was a bit of a pain, I’ll admit, but this demo/game deserved it! :slight_smile:

I loved the project and I am very surprised at how beautiful the sceneries are and everything, a wonderful sight for those who like 2D Primes and especially for those who played Metroid Prime from GameCube <3. I would love to test the demo, but unfortunately it won’t open on my computer, I get an error right when I click to open it, maybe it’s because my computer is Windows 7, I don’t know.

Getting the Spring Ball felt really great! I love this demo, it’s the perfect length, and there’s plenty to explore!
( to those wondering where it is, the entrance is above the left door in the ship area but you need jump into morphball in midair and bomb, unmorph, jump and morph, unmorph and grab the ledge to get above the door. )

Ah, you must have seen the hidden transmission in the alcove room but actually something tells me you should investigate the map room behind the upper-right door in the ship area, wink wink :slight_smile:
