super_dos_man Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 anyone willing to make this game? It was just an idea I thought of while playing my 2600 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirin jensen Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 There's thread here that deals with making hacks. Unfortunately, you'll probably have to do it yourself. Have fun if you do. I think there are a couple zelda hacks already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there are a couple zelda hacks already. And none of them are even a far cry from being anything like Zelda Zelda would be a game that would need to be made from scratch IMHO.

That makes it even more unlikely anyone will do it. Unless you do. Fortunately, unlike my beloved O2, the 2600 has massive programming community support. Give it a try, I'd say.

StanJr Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 Yeah, I did a hack of Tutankham that I am pretty proud of, but doing a true Zelda-style game for the VCS would take some real 6502 wizardry ala what was being done with Homestarrunner RPG a couple of years ago.

Why not hack secret quest? You could pull a half decent Zelda hack out of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ringman Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 (edited) Ok fine, anyone want to help me make a zelda hack out of secret quest? Any mockups for side view zelda sprites for the 2600? Any ideas for a story, like what should I make the oxygen in the game be? http://www.atariage.com/screenshot_page.ht...peID=SCREENSHOT Just found the player sprites, he has all the views that Zelda would have, oh happy day. Anyone want to post up some mock up sprites? We can make this possible. Looks to be 8 pixels wide by 16 pixels tall. Lots of extras in this game, I'll probably have to beat this to fully understand how to hack it, but we've got passwords for this game so it will feel more like zelda.
