Match 23: Lufia 2
Match 24: Mario

Edit: Wow, I'm surprised with how much things have progressed. Also, boo on everyone not voting for Cubivore! *angry face*

Hey! I saw the thread up top but it was too dusty in there, so post a song you like! Does anyone even come into this forum anymore? Hehe. Everyone listens to music so everyone should post! You can go all out or just post 1 song, whatever.

Let me hear some songs you like. I'll post a few, too.

Dash Berlin - Waiting


Serge Devant - Take Me With You


Dj Tiesto - Elements of Life


deadmau5 - strobe

We all like presents, right? Post here what you unwrap! I opened one gift for Christmas Eve and I got Star Ocean: The Last Hope International. I've been playing all night. Hehe. I love it.

I doubt anyone has opened their goodies this early in the morning, 2am, but when you do share your experience!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Cool. You working on a new hack?


Yeah. I played the original Zelda II recently and got an idea for a hack.

Another Zelda II hack! I based this off of my Journey of a Day hack so it has all the features from that, plus some fine-tuning here and there. (mostly with the gfx.) Most things look even better or different now.

This is basically the original game, gameplay wise, but with a twist. Link can't jump. (at first) I wanted to do this to add a challenge to the original puzzles of Zelda II. Hopefully it will add a fresh feel to the game; A sense of challenge.

There are two difficulties. Easy and Hard. If you play Easy, all the enemies will do 1x damage to Link, but if you play Hard, they will do 2x damage.

I don't know what else to say! Play it and see for yourself! Hehe.

Last Update: 1-30-11
Version: 1.2
Download v1.2 Here

Edit: There is a version with jump enabled for those who don't like no jumping.


Title Screen! Back to the starry sky.

If only Link could jump. Hmm.

Try killing this without jumping! Ha!

Update v1.2

I added a version with jump enabled. I should've done that from the start, hehe. At first this was just supposed to be the original Zelda II but with Journey of a Day gfx, but I got the no jump idea and changed things accordingly.

---

@bradzx, it is 257kb.

@Xeruss, I've played Zelda II so much that nothing about it is hard for me. So when I make these hacks I change things to make it more challenging for me. That's how I determine difficulty, but this time the only hard thing about it is the no jump handicap.

@RetroRain, it is the same hack. Also, you do need to get the jump spell to be able to go anywhere. That's the challenge! Hehe.

I've always wanted to mix Bionic Commando and Zelda II. So this was a thought from that. Unfortunately I am not capable of making a grappling hook, yet.


Edit: Btw, there isn't any pixel jumping in this.

Seeing Ice Penguin's Zelda II stuff has put me in a Zelda II hacking mood.

I'm starting out with a graphical facelift.

Before

After





Yay! I'm really looking forward to seeing more! I can't get enough of Zelda II.

Edit: I know you only showed just one screen, but I like it. I like the dark atmosphere you gave it.

Oh, so I don't know if this is possible or not, but RetroRain's misconception could make for a very entertaining hack.
If you could change one of the stats so that your jump increases in height every time you level, then design levels accordingly. Or maybe read from the number of crystals remaining... Anyway, just an interesting thought.


I really like that idea. It would work well with other spells, too. Like with the fairy spell I always thought it would be cool to make a time limit to which you are a fairy, then revert back to Link. Of course if this were implemented it would be a good if you could stay a fairy after screen transitions.

Thank you Googie! That's probably the 20th iteration of my new title screen, so it's a relief to hear something. Hehe.

Guardian Legend: Secret Edition


Guardian Legend was one of my favorite games for the NES! I had completely forgotten it's name but I instantly recognized the gameplay. Awesome!

This is what I usually have open. I also keep a tab open in my browser with a 6502 reference document. Although my ASM skills aren't that great, it helps to read it.

I've also become addicted to La Pucelle Tactics.
I've always wanted to play that! That's one of my favorite genres of games.

Currently I am not playing any game, but the last three I played were... Dead Space 2, Star Ocean: The Last Hope International, and Super Mario 64.

A completely new Zelda II adventure!

Last Update: 3-12-11
Version: 1.0

Download v1.0 - Link 1
Download v1.0 - Link 2

"Long ago, a curse was cast upon the land of Hyrule. This darkness
gave rise to the minions of Ganon, allowing them to overrun Forests,
Towns, and Meadows.

Deep within the forest lives our young hero, Link. Guide Link across
the vast Kingdom of Hyrule, and defeat the ominous shadow!"

What's New?
===========
-World Maps!
-Dungeons!
-GFX!
-Music!
-New Spell!
-Experience Curve!
-More areas to explore!
-More treasure!
-More Zelda!

While the majority of the hack was done by me, there are new surprises to
find thanks to the efforts of others. Trax helped out a lot with programming
and created a new spell! He also helped with improving enemies to make them
more fierce! Beware of the bots. Enjoy the new Overworld Music thanks to
optomon. He composed it perfectly and it really enhances the Zelda feel!

To everyone that helped, THANK YOU! Trax, JaSp, HylianFox, ocw, Dwedit,
Ice Ranger, Jigglysaint, Googie, optomon.

This is the biggest Zelda II hack, yet! Enjoy!
