Awesome!  I hope it works out!  

 

Since this is my first quest attempt, and it's pretty ambitious, would you be interested in collaborating on it?  

...My wife is a little tired of me bouncing ideas off of her when she doesn't really play Zelda...

 

 

Edit -- Oh, yeah, to keep on topic, I'm hoping to put some kind of Savage Labyrinth / Cave of Ordeals gauntlet in the game, but that might be a little hard since I'm not particularly good at combat in ZC or in Zelda 1--so any tips on that might be nice.

I unfortunately do not have the free time to devote to a collab quest. I can't even finish my own quests :P I do appreciate the offer though.

Oh, no worries, man.  I probably won't seriously consider a collaboration until after I have a good portion of playable overworld, if not all of it.  If anything, I could really just use some feedback on design choices.  

Honestly, I don't know how it would feel in Zelda to blow open a wall, go in, find "You found a piece of Dodongo Leather and have sewn it into your bomb bag! Now you can carry 15 more bombs!"  Technically, my ammo capacity upgrades work like Metroid's expansions, and that might be cool, but now, how to show that on the subscreen?

 

Another idea I had was to take the existing Zelda 1 Dungeon Theme, and remix it into the instrumentation and moods of the various dungeon themes from Ocarina of Time.  Say in the Fire Temple, you might hear a really MIDI sounding male choir bringing up those left hand notes, with a sparse marimba and bell doing their best to play as little of that sixteenth note phrase as possible, over a light percussion of bells, tamborines, and shakers...  It would be pretty cool, I think.   (Either way, the Shadow Temple is getting the Z1 Dungeon music, literally as close to Moonlight Sonata as I can get it to sound.)
