davidnEr, Part 2 is here and I sort of forgot to link it.
Thanks to everyone who volunteered information after watching my first night of Super Metroid, in which I think I made a surprising amount of progress for someone who didn't know all the controls (rather like Marble Madness before it, as much as marbles can "run"). Here's the second session of the journey, confusingly titled Part 3, which I hadn't realized would be so short - I aim for about twenty-minute episodes, but exploration-based games compress down amazingly when you edit them down to just the interesting or relevant bits (particularly with me at the controls).
This part involves... getting lost, mostly, and also a fair amount of screaming.

Date: 2013-05-23 01:48 am (UTC)The title screen has the chirping Metroid larva in the Ceres station, and the continue screen has the "Find the Metroid larva!" message with more chirping, as a reminder. How long has David been playing, now? And with how nonexistent the story is anywhere else, the four or five times he's died have basically served as "oh, right, there's still that whole thing with the Metroid larva, isn't there?" points.
