Super Metroid Gravity, v 1.0

Jathys writes: I've made a small ASM hack for Super Metroid (SNES) that allows gravity to be manipulated. It doesn't actually change the default gravity of the game, but makes it easy to give each room its own unique gravity (something that was impossible before). Once your ROM is patched, SMILE can be used to set gravity values for any room (instructions included with the patch). ASM coders will also be able to change offsets in RAM to adjust gravity in special cases. The ASM source code is included in case anyone wants to learn the (extreme) basics of 65816... (I started to learn on the 24th). You can grab this hack at our SNES Hacks section. Be sure to read the readme file. Thanks to Jathys for the news.
