Metroid Zero Mission » Zebes Map
I recently got into the speedrunning scene and decided that my first serious speedrunning game would be Metroid Zero Mission. One of the most important aspects of speedrunning Metroid games is planning your route through the game. Logically, it's important to have an accurate and useful map, often more informative than the in-game map. Years ago, I made a simple map for MZM that was designed to be printed and display the expansions, nothing more.
Revisiting it with a new goal for route planning in mind, I present to you the map of Zebes for MZM.

The entire image was self-made except for the Creative Commons license indicator in the bottom right. The only information it's lacking are indicators for which power-ups you need to get past certain areas. To be honest, if I added that information the resolution would be doubled, easily. I have also omitted boss icons (for now), since all speedrunners know where the bosses are. :)
If you want to distribute it, I don't mind as long as the file is unaltered and I'm informed of where it was posted. It's cool to see where it ends up!
