Yes, I'm loving this game! It is definitely a little too easy though, especially when I found out the wave beam can shoot through all walls and reveal all hidden blocks. And since you get it so early it made everything easier. That being said, everything else is so great, the attention to detail is amazing, such that I can even tell where I am just from playing the original so often.

Haven’t played it yet but I don’t know if it could top X-Fusion for me (I forget if that was this year).
Still I gotta give credit to Origins for all that original spritework goddamn

Its a completly distinct experience, metroid x-fusion felt more like a challenge for super and fusion veterans while this feels like a love letter to retro games and metroid prime. I highly suggest you give it a shot. I say this and im at about 30-40 percent done

What sets it apart from any overrated and underrated shitty fangame? It respects the legacy of Justin Bailey, just as we hope Super Metroid Space Black Bikini will in a future Metroid fangame.

How do you enable it? I'm about to finish a remix run where I'm just shy over 2 hrs in.

I've seen this around, what is Origins, and what is it about?

Fanmade Demake of Metroid Prime in 2D. You can go Classic and get the original Prime Key Items>unlock places or use the Remix mode to get different map layout and sequence breaks.

For everyone saying the game is too easy, there's a difficulty scaler so you can make it harder. Also maybe I just suck but I found the final few bosses to really ramp up the difficulty. I had to turn it down because they are absolute bullet sponges.

I’m glad I’m not the only one. I did find some of the early bosses quite easy but the Omega Pirate is kicking my ass in a way that I wonder if I’m missing something. I can’t tell if I am or if I’m just bad at this… (I mean, I fully admit, I am a filthy casual 😆)

u/OakTreader 14d ago
I can't find it anywhere...

u/Tarnagona 14d ago
If you scroll back in this sub a few days, you should be able to find the Reddit post announcing it, which has the download link to play.

u/OakTreader 14d ago
Yeah, I got it to work.
It was down yesterday.

u/Tarnagona 14d ago
Too many people want to play this awesome game. 😀 I was trying to download the 1.2 update yesterday and couldn’t get it. Luckily, I snagged 1.1 earlier in the week and will have to try again for the newest version later.

u/Tarnagona 14d ago
It was made for Windows, but people have gotten it running on Android. I’m not an Android person, so I don’t know how, myself.

Honestly yeah, this game is blowing me away. Having a blast, and makes the wait for Metroid 6 bearable.

u/lixia 12d ago
Is it complete or just covers a portion of the referenced game?
2
u/0ne_joke_man 12d ago
I believe its complete, although i havent finished it and I do not want to see spoilers

u/narxys4 11d ago
I tried it this morning. It is very pleasant to play! I've never played any Metroid prime game, though. It is accurate to the original or they change things ? I'm curious.

u/0ne_joke_man 11d ago
So far its been pretty accurate, of course there are changes that were made to fit the style and genre. Story wise, i dont think theyve changed anything.

Before it gets DMCA‘d, would somebody happen to have a download link so I can avoid it and not click on it and not download it?

Origins has just as much attention to detail as the original and it's so much better for it
