-redraw the dungeon maps

So this is your secret project? Will it be a remake of a previous Zelda game or a fan game? Which language are you gonna use? I am curious about how this will turn out. Good luck!

It will be entirely AXE. It will be very similar to an already made game, but unique in some ways. Yes, this was the secret project.

Cool, do you mean a calc game (like Dark Link Quest) or a console game?

[ACagliano]

Mine will be playable on calc. It will be based off of the Game Boy game, A Link to the Past.

[Yeong]

Yay! Link to the Past FTW!
Even though I never got to pass the first castle though... O.o

I thought Link to the Past was on the SNES. Or did you mean Link's Awakening?

[JosJuice]

There's a GBA port of ALttP.

Oh yeah I knew it was on-calc, I just wondered for example if this was a port of Links Awakening/A Link To The Past/Zelda I/II or if it was a remake of Dark Link Quest or even Hero of Hyrule.

Alltp would be cool, but wouldn't it be a huge undertaking? Either way, good luck!

[ACagliano]

It would be, but based on the way I have it set up, the hardest part will be fitting all the map data into the calc, and not worrying about memory issues. The map interpreter is simple and small. The AI routines are coming together, thanks to nemo, and the fighting will be the last thing i code.

[Ashbad]

This IS a huge undertaking, but good luck none the less!  I always loved a link t the past, I hope you do a great job re-creating it!

[DJ Omnimaga]

You could maybe create smaller versions of AlttP maps. IMHO they don't have to be as large, you could mayeb remove some space between some trees and houses or make some houses smaller, for example. You would save a lot of space, too.

Also AlttP is my favorite Zelda game btw. Next would be Ocarina of Time, but the side quests and mini-games were way too hard, especially the ones involving hookshoot, slingshoot or bow. I got frustrated and just did the regular quest even if I had 16 hearts.

[FinaleTI]

I love AlttP as well. It made me wanna make a Zelda game, but I was still learning BASIC, so yeah.
I was incapable of doing too much, and got easily distracted. It's up on ticalc, and it stills shames me, though not as much as Theodore's Quest.
Maybe I'll finish it someday...

[DJ Omnimaga]

Oh you had one? I didn't knew. It would be cool if it was finished one day, although first I would like to see both Nostalgia games come out.

Current Map Progress

1- 36x21 Kakariko Village/Lost Woods
1- 36x21 Lake Hylia/Desert/Death Mountain
5- rooms, for houses in the village


Feedback needed. Is two 36x21 maps enough for a Zelda world map? Or should I have more?
