I made this one-level arcade interpretation of Zelda for no reason but being a big damn nerd and just needing to take a break from having little motivation with Solar Plexus. Also, I wanted to try out the item-system changing parts of the level slightly.

It's pretty challenging, not tested a whole lot and the gamepad support might be strange on some joypads, I haven't tried it on any but mine.

At least now I'm burnt-out on making arcadey action games for a while.

It is a kind of love letter to Zelda, my personal favorite game series, both from nostalgia and its often great design. The Legend of Zelda-franchise is obviously a NINTENDO-copyrighted franchise, and this game, while admittedly trying to be like a bootleg Zelda, should not be sold etc., but that goes without saying.

Special thanks to Gustav Kilman, Dustin Hoffman Gunn, Kyle Pulver, Annabelle Kennedy and Adam Saltsman for a bit of testing and stuff.

I haven't played all that much of it yet, but it seems pretty fun. And I know this is a bit old, so my apologies if it's already been posted.

Wow, this looks a lot like Castle of Ganon, a game someone made on the "Ocarina of Time 2D" forums a few years ago.

Will try it now!

Will check it out later.

Can I download this for my Macbook?

Only one way to find out!

(It's a small download, and didn't need any installment on my PC)

Nice, but will have to try on the weekend as I have no free time. :(

Reminds me far more of Wonder Boy than any Zelda (including Link's Adventure)--not that there's anything at all wrong with that :)

i enjoyed it quite a bit.

love the enemy and environment art.

the only thing that really stops it feeling like a zelda game is the ability to constantly swing with the sword. if there was a pause after every third swing it would have been more like one. slowing down the running would also help.

plus its missing the whole gaining more items and stuff but since this would be a dungeon in a full game that's not so much of a problem.

but its fun to play and that's always enough for me.

i had fun for about 5 minutes, but then ran into some bug where i got stuck in the water. i couldn't move at all after that :'(
