bryann380 Posted August 12, 2005 Share Posted August 12, 2005 I'm creating a Swordquest fangame with Zelda sprites, hence the title of this topic. I already recently released an engine test demo that takes place in 'Earthworld'. I'll be making my very own Airworld from scratch (yes, all 4 realms will be in the same game). The program used to design this is Game Maker, version 6.1 (http://www.gamemaker.nl). On each realm, you place certain items in certain rooms to discover 9 "clues". When all 9 are found, the way to the Big Key of that realm opens for you to claim it. You need all 4 big keys to unlock the Master Sword Of Sorcery chamber, get the sword and win the game. There will be a "second quest" after beating the game which allows you to play through it again at a higher difficulty, including randomly created clues. I haven't made any 'action sequence' rooms yet. That is next on my "to do" list. You can carry up to 6 items and can drop no more than 8 items in the same room. The zip contains a text file on the controls and other info. Speaking of the demo, here it is... http://bryann380.home.comcast.net/zeldasq.zip . In this demo, each clue requires only one item. Let me know what you think of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vic George 2K3 Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 Interesting melding of two gaming properties, though I think the Swordquest series still blows chunks as far as gameplay is concerned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZylonBane Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Why? At the time the SQ games came out, the prevailing opinion was, "Pretty graphics, terrible gameplay." Seems like Adventure would be a far more viable candidate for this sort of treatment.

bryann380 Posted August 15, 2005 Author Share Posted August 15, 2005 (edited) Funny you should mention that because I was actually thinking about doing a "Zelda Adventure". I got some Swordquest supporters on another forum anyway. Edited August 15, 2005 by bryann380 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
