Idea: Randomize "boss required" grey door locations

[elreymu]

The idea is to randomize which and how many locations unlock after you to defeat an specific boss.

As an example; Normally when you defeat Kraid or Ridley that opens up one grey door, the idea is to randomize the location of that grey door so it locks something else somewhere else.
If possible it would be cool if the user could input how many grey doors may be locked until you defeat that boss.
So for example if kraid has 5 grey doors associated with him; 5 random doors across the game will be turned to grey until you defeat kraid.

It would be a good idea to also have special sprites for "grey boss doors" to distinguish between phantoon,kraid,draygon and ridley grey doors to make it easier to keep track of them.
(To avoid the situation where you go back to a place where a grey door was to check if it opened only to find out that grey door wasn't related to the boss you just defeated)
Maybe just change the border of the grey door to a different color to identify them.
Green border grey door = Kraid required
Yellow border = Phantoon
Blue border = Draygon
Red border = Ridley
(The colors of their eyes in the statues)

hello,
thanks for the idea but we don't plan on doing that.
we do have a reflection going on about locking some doors with some keys or things like that so maybe in the end we may reuse your idea, we've still not decided exactly what we'll do yet.

Hi thanks for the response, yeah that sounds cool too (anything that adds more ways to play the game really), just sharing with you guys this idea since the grey doors are one of the few things that remain constant
