Metroid: Wavy-Ice
I’ve decided to share my simple Wavy-Ice hack. It allows the player to combine the wave beam and ice beam in Metroid. Note that this only works on a ROM expanded by Editroid 2.1.

The unnamed Blaster Master editor is coming along nicely. I’ve decided to make an early build available for download. It’s fully functional as far as editing capabilities go. (Read more for the link.)
