El último Metroid está en cautiverio...
Multilanguage support is almost here.
I was able to find good, complete pixel fonts. I replaced them, and had to adjust almost every place in the game with on-screen text, since the y coordinate was off.
Now all the text is read from an .ini file, selectable in the options screen. I still have to convert some small snippets of text that are drawn as bitmaps (like "press start to skip", etc.) into actual text. Once the system is fully working, I´ll paste it into Confrontation, and make the .ini file available at the forum, in case you want to translate the demo into your language.
After that, mod support comes next. Instead of making all the resource files available in folders like last time, I´m planning a mod section in the options menu, to select the available mods without having to mess with overwriting files.
Anyway. The remade first area of the AM2R is starting to look great. There´s a couple of details I need to fix with some tilesets, and I still need to make a new background. Expect to see some screenies on the next update.
Sorry if I was a little absent these days (on the emails and the forum). I took a small vacation to Uruguay with my girlfriend, I´ll reply as soon as I can.
Have a good week.

I would be pleased to help. =)
am2r update sounds great cant wait to see some sample pics.........

a friend a fan of a classic game being make better..........
I can translate the game to Polish, if you want to. As for the mod section, I ask you to make the game discriminate between "standing-shooting" and "standing-idle", because I'm considering the idea of remaking the Super Metroid suit from the first demo. Variable arm cannon height would be welcome addition as well, but not mandatory.
On a side note, I'm now a confrontation master. =)
Todo mi apoyo y la suerte con este proyecto que ya va por la recta final de mi parte.
We're all eagerly awaiting the project's completion. For a while, I thought I was the only one who checked in daily, but it seems there's more than just me.
Can't wait for the next update!
Saludos!

Por cierto, esa introducción que has puesto en español tiene algunas pequeños errores de ortografía, no podemos permitir que algo tan guay como lo que estás haciendo tenga alguno, revisa de vez en cuando ok?
Oye, has pensado en hacer una versión española (latinoamérica) y otra de España? Si piensas que es buena idea, yo podría editar los textos, ya que vivo en España.

Buén trabajo, hombre! Abrazos de Brazil.
