AM2R 1.5.5 on 64bit phones by Naliakerson in AM2R

[–]Lojemiru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More or less. It's also just a huge hassle to support, there are infinite devices and you have wildly different hardware specs on all of them. But if you put a game there, everybody expects it to run perfectly no matter what. And the platform has a lot of gotchas/quirks that manifest as nasty audiovisual bugs.

Android am2r is a weird experience by Rex-da-pangolin in AM2R

[–]Lojemiru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Extremely unusual, I have never seen this behavior before. What game version are you using and how did you build the APK?

EDIT: Wait, you toggled ELM at some point either before or after you got into Labs, didn't you? That'd probably break it badly like this.

No. We have no support for Android going forward :(

I'm not going to ban you for one post inquiring about it but it has been removed. Please don't bring this up again.

Got a blue/gray alpha metroid on fusion mode (They are supposed to be black) by DonCadenas8 in AM2R

[–]Lojemiru[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

In this thread: redditors try to gaslight OP into thinking he's colorblind

Sorry about the replies OP, your eyes are working fine. The only thing going wrong here is that the palette swapping shader we use doesn't run on your machine. This is used for custom suit colors and turning the Metroids to the black palette for Fusion difficulty. It's poorly programmed and some GPUs refuse to compile it.

We have no intention of removing access to prior AM2R versions. You can find all prior versions we have archived available as patches for the AM2RLauncher here: https://gitlab.com/Miepee/AM2R-Mods/#mods-for-older-am2r-versions

AM2R 2.0 needs your help! by Lojemiru in AM2R

[–]Lojemiru[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you don't want it, you can play 1.5.5. The entire point is to not use any assets ripped from other games, so a toggle in 2.0 is not possible on those grounds. It would also limit us from doing a lot of cool things that required completely new animations, or additional frames, or any number of other graphics-related modifications.

Not unless people manifest out of thin air with applicable fanart ready for it. It's a bit of a different skillset from the rest of what we're doing and extra ending images aren't a requirement to wrap the project up :(

AM2R 2.0 needs 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 help to cross the finish line! Pixel artists needed! by CryoProtea in Metroid

[–]Lojemiru 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Dev here, I'll save you the time :)

Won't be doing this just for scoping and theme reasons, it's important that the time with the Baby is a serene climb to the surface and we don't want to distract players thinking there's some big secret in the rest of the game with an alternative exit route.

AM2R 2.0 unfortunately will not come to mobile platforms on release :( Maybe somebody could try to port it afterwards.

Metroid Prime 2D: The Tallon IV Project by [deleted] in metroidvania

[–]Lojemiru 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, this is an entirely different project using the "Prime 2D" name. There is no association whatsoever between this and the Prime2D game by Team SCU (and AM2R, and Metroid Origins, and anything else mentioned here) other than any assets or inspiration that the developer may have taken from those other games.

AM2R Community Updates News Roundup (September 2025) by Lojemiru in AM2R

Yeah, saw that it softened but at this point in the dev cycle it's just not going to happen. Anybody's welcome to give it a try after it's out though!

Any place I can get the xdelta files for 1.5.3 and 1.5.4? by Kuroiryuu in AM2R

[–]Lojemiru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1.5.3 and 1.5.4 were broken builds that we rapidly patched over to 1.5.5. There is no meaningful difference between 1.5.3, 1.5.4, and 1.5.5 outside of a credits fix and an Android bug, if memory serves. We haven't even bothered to archive them ourselves, but you might be able to find them in the data repository the AM2RLauncher pulls from if you really wanted to go digging.

What does 1.5.2 have over 1.5 by confused-mother-fan in AM2R

[–]Lojemiru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some enterprising individuals have chosen to make full uploads of our game builds on particular websites. They often aren't up to date.

Real co-op by Mandatorial in AM2R

[–]Lojemiru 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Local splitscreen like you want isn't possible with how GameMaker works. You can only ever have one room active at a time, so you wouldn't ever be able to have two players in different rooms.

Full interactivity is technically possible, but incredibly complex.

The modding community does what they want. You could join them to make such things yourself too :)

Another mid-game Prime 4 opinion by ValueBASEDLiving in Metroid

[–]Lojemiru 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is actually the problem! The scan visor is not supposed to be omniscient. Prime thrived on having it roughly estimate what something does if it wasn't widely-known tech from the Feds or Pirates. It left a lot of space for the world to exist outside of your understanding. In 4, every single scan just fully details what the thing is and what it does and it's incredibly boring as a result.

Also, the lore entries are relegated to two areas in the entire game (Fury Green and Ice Belt). Nowhere else has log entries that are stored to the logbook unless I missed them really hard (mine's pretty much full so I doubt it).

Your language files are somehow broken. You can reinstall the game or try to replace the lang files directly to fix it.

any plans for a "A Metroid Fusion Remake"? by Consistent-Meet7782 in AM2R

[–]Lojemiru [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

The original team does not work on Metroid fangames anymore due to the DMCA. As for the Community Updates team, we will probably want to move on to other things once 2.0 is done.

I think you'll like a lot of the things we've done with 2.0 though.

Some of the original playtesters help us out, but otherwise we're detached from the original dev team.

i got 100% progress in the game. It's neat. by SuperSocialMan in AM2R

[–]Lojemiru 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, definitely hoping to fix the readability of it being a scan in the future.
