Spiritual sequel to Zelda Parallel Worlds, this is Link Parallel Universes, an
hack which I've been working on for at least two years! The demo is relatively
short, no events are in the game yet, no dungeons were created neither, what
you'll be able to play will be segments of some overworld areas. The modern
world and the rift aren't in the demo, the rest is left untouched.

To be able to visit the multiple areas, I've included a *.srm file of the hack
which gives you the flute. You should put this file in the same directory as
your rom when patched and have the same name.. for exemple:


''Link - Parallel Universes Demo v0.3.srm''

''Link - Parallel Universes Demo v0.3.smc''


Otherwise you'll be stuck on the wastelands. When the rift will be done it
will be a gateway to all the different universes, until then, use the flute!

Great work SePH! I think you are one of those true hackers.
Drawing the Zelda3 overworld and graphic hacking is extremely difficult,
so there are rare people that can do it so well.

Those graphics changes do look rather glorious; I'll give the hack itself a try soon once I've seen to finishing some urgent real-life business. Are you maintaining that (noticeably different from the original LttP) perspective throughout the hack?

Thanks puzzledude! It's kinda funny that I tried Lunar Magic a while back before I started hacking Zelda 3 and found it much harder then Hyrule Magic, to each his own I guess

@blackhole89: Much like the overworlds, I'm planning to change the perspective of the dungeons aswell. All the graphics will be changed to something new, nothing from Zelda 3 will be spared. I'll start doing the new dungeons and it's graphics once the overworld is completed which should be in a mather of months or by the end of the year if I don't spend too much time on the overworld and it's graphics!

Is it going to be less psychotically hard for those of us mere mortals compared to Parallel Worlds?

You can count on that. The mere purpose of this hack is to make it as enjoyable and interesting as possible for those who played PW and found it too much tedious. I may even say it's going to be as easy as the original Zelda 3. Those who managed to finish Parallel Worlds will find the sequel to be a walk in the park in comparison! I'm pretty sure you won't need to know all the glitches and tricks that Parallel Worlds required you to do in several dungeons (for exemple bomb jumping etc..).

As I long to actually make them. Can't wait to start them actually and see what new life I can bring in them. But as methodical as I am, I'll finish the overworlds first then think about the 255+ rooms that I'm going to make later!

For the original (U) [!] rom that would be 1 048 576 bytes and once patched, 3 670 528 bytes.

That's good to hear. Parallel Worlds was absolutely amazing looking (and had a stupendous amount of work put into it by appearances) but the difficulty really turned me off from playing it much.

Bomb Jumping is pretty benign though, both Ganon's Tower and Temple of Four Swords used it in the original. Admittedly the first was just for a fairy room.

All the best with this then. Should give the demo a whirl, eh?

So a total conversion in other words! Well this is going to be interesting to see.

This will be literally the most legendary Z3 hack ever! SePH, you are the God of LttP hacks. I subscribed to the RSS feed on your parallel sequel wordpress blog. I'm keeping a close eye on the progress. Simply amazing work though. Unbelievable what you're doing here.
