Overview
Project Base keeps the original Super Metroid map mostly intact, while adding new stuff. It doesn't force the player to take a new path, or to use any advanced techniques. Sequence breaks and shortcuts have been left alone, with new ones added. Highly speedrunnable, and with a level of difficulty that is accessible to anyone. Works with Snes9X, ZSNES, higan/BSNES, and on SNES/flash cartridges.
The name "Project Base" refers its original purpose, which was to act as a base hack for others to build from. It first appeared in August 2009 after I was inspired by squishy_ichigo's Vanilla++ hack, and it is currently still being worked on. I take long breaks often to gather feedback and bug reports.
