Metroid: Zero Mission is an action platformer game for the Game Boy Advance.

This is a hack of Metroid: Zero Mission that removes the exploration element of Metroid to focus on the boss combat. The game begins in a series of hallways where Samus can collect any and all of her power-ups. Following this are 3 different paths that lead to the 3 different ways you can fight the bosses.

[list]
[li]Fight all the bosses in sequence without any opportunity to heal[/li]
[li]Fight all the bosses in sequence with the option to heal between each fight[/li]
[li]Fight the bosses in (almost) any order you choose[/li]
[/list]

More information on the features and quirks of this hack can be found in the readme.

This was originally created primarily for use on Arcade Pit, the online retro gaming game show. Sadly, Metroid and Metroidvanias were deemed poor fits for the show, and as such this hack does not appear on there. Now it merely exists for people who want to try out the bosses of Zero Mission in their own self imposed challenges.
