odd, it is telling me that the page doesn't exist. Can you make sure the link is right?
Offline
I found it you Stuff place.
It is pretty good, although the graphics are meh. I like how link sort of flys when he jumps. What was odd was his landing, you couldn't move during it. I think that you should expand and get better landscaping graphics. I also just released a scroller which you might like. I used a dark link sprite from Zachandrew I think for my hero although it is my storyline. Go check it out.

I fixed the link. As I said the game isn't done. I'm going to improve the background sprites. Thanks for the imput on the landing, I'll speed up that process of switching costumes.

It's only okay, but thanks for the compliment

Don't be surprised if people aren't all over it. When you release a final version, I'm sure people will swarm. Besides, I luv me a good Zelda game! ^^

The final version is a loooooong way away unfortunately.
It might not be so long cause I did that in a couple hours

I am working on level 2. You should expect it to be released by the end of the day. Levl 2 will have some puzzles using the bow an maybe an enemy or 2. The bow will be controlled by space bar

Level 2 will be released tomorrow. I was preoccupied today with a pool party I held at my house

Level 2 is now released

Hey Geckofreak, are you there? we need to discuss the storyline
Offline
Here what I have so far. The story starts after TP. Link defeated gannon at the castle a year ago. Link thinks the world is safe and has decided to give up being a hero. While dozing off in hirule field he is awoken by an earthquake. Lava is now pouring out of the ground and a precence of dark magic is in the air. Link see a huge cloud of black smoke and hears gannon's evil laugh. Link reaches for the master sword but it isn't in it's sheath. He pulls out his bow and tries to shoot but the cloud disapears. He then runs off to try to find a the master sword and warn Zelda of Gannons return. I will put that in a cutscene
I want sprites with good animation like the link I have so i think I will try to find my own wolf link sprite. If i can find a good wolf link sprite then heres my plan After level 2 I plan to have another cutscene where link arives at the pedastal of time to look for the master sword but it isn't there. A twiglight fog then settles over the area and link is transoforme into wolflink. Minda also come back (I don't know how, probably something to do with gannons magic) and explains that Gannon left part of his spirit in the twighlight realm and when he was killed he used his remaining power to revive himself from that part of the spirit that remained. He picks up the scent of the master sword on the pedastal. Follows it to hyrule castle which is in ruins. ANd there he picks up 2 scents. One that sort of smells like zelda (I'm taking something from the ocarinia of time here, zelda has turned into shiek to escape Gannon) and an awful stench of evil. He follows the zelda scent to lake Hylia whichisn't covered by the fog so he turns back into regular link. Lake Hylia is boiling and the Zoras are nowhere to be found. That is as far as I have gotten on a story line.
I have a boss battle planned at lake hylia with a sea serpent (I'm gonna draw the sprite, I'm goo at drawing monsters.) I've also decided that the full game will be too big for 1 scratch project so I'm going to split it up into multiple scratch projects. I will have the oppening cutscene up tonight

Then Link walks upstream to where the fishing and boat rides are and (insert something that has happened to the people here) ... they're spirits? or maybe more Twilight Monsters?

The Zora's have disapeared, Link goes to the top of the river where all the zoras live and in the huge pool (which you dropped the huge lava rock into in TP) a sea serpent attacks.

Then after you defeat it you notice that the Domain is now in ruins. The water has dried up completely and you climb down the rocky cliff to the cave. The cave leads to the North, and the Yetis, but you believe that there is no need to ask them. Suddenly, there is a huge bellow coming from the cave. you go and investigate.

How is it dried up if you just fought a sea serpent in it. Instead of a bellow you hear a scream. I found a goood zan't sprite which I will use for a boss battle up at the top of the mountain. You will do this in wolf link form.

Very nice I think. And the Domain would be dried up because it's in ruins. You know. Drained
