SMZ3 Cas’ Randomizer

“This is the cas'est version of the rando you’ll ever see.”
— Diabetus, 2021

The SMZ3 Cas’ Randomizer is a fork of the original Super Metroid & A Link to the Past Crossover Randomizer. Originally created to remove the decidedly uncas’ IBJ (Infinite Bomb Jump) technique, it's since grown into a project with a built-in tracker, accessibility patches, and other general quality of life changes added to make SMZ3 more casual and approachable..

A Windows installer for latest version of the SMZ3 Cas’ Randomizer can be found on the GitHub releases page. Linux and Mac versions are also available with slightly limited functionality.

Features

In addition to making IBJ completely optional, there is also:

• Integrated voice-enabled/automated item & location tracker;
• Built-in MSU-1 support for custom music packs;
• Customizable logic for either casual or advanced play;
• Various accessibility and quality of life patches;
• Customizable ship sprites;
• Patches for modern Super Metroid controls;
• In game hint tiles and voice-enabled hints via tracker;
• Basic Twitch integration for tracker responding to chat;
• Multiworld support with individual player logic and game settings;
• Sprites made by members of Diabetus’ community and others;

Note: Voice recognition and text-to-speech functionality is currently only available on Windows.
