Hi everyone,

As you may have known, I'm revisioning the old BB bosses. Basically what I do with them is improve a few things in design and gameplay and add 2.5 features (making the fights significantly smoother), but keeping the old spirit.

I'm currently working on Trinexx. Trinexx was CastChaos his most favorite boss from LttP (as far as I know) so he wanted to recreate it in BB. Sadly it was a little harder in 2.10 to rip graphics and required much work arounds and tedious hours of redrawing and palette making. With 8bit and easier grabbing tools, plus I'm a little faster with graphic editing program it made things much easier for me. CastChaos actually drew the entire thing by hand while looking at screenshot! So I decided to rip in some new graphics for starters.

The boss will also have some new gameplay changes and attacks/defenses. The old Trinexx required you to use the magic boomerang on the fiery part and then the red candle on the icy part. The new Trinexx will be vulnerable to the sword like the LttP one and will of course have the snake part too. Besides that, the use of FFCs should really make the attacks a little harder and unpredictable.

All in all it should be more fun at least, maybe a video will follow up, but have a screen first:

Wait a minute, that's the old boss...

Amazing! This boss looks like it'd be fun to fight. Use of 2.5 features sounds good too.

Thanks Avataro!

And I don't think releasing a demo would be any use. The original BB is already released and I don't think that finishing this one will take much longer than several months from now. I got like 7 dungeons and overworld in between to look at, plus the final dungeon, but just consider that I done a lot of work the last month... I'm really on a great speed now.

I will try to make a video or 2 though.

Loved this game when I first played it (old 2.10 version), and even after all this time, I STILL have no idea what use the Gerudo Desert path had in the Early Years other than being a tease (I'm coining the phrase 'Early Years' for the beginning part of the game; Dark/Light and Balance/Ruin Worlds have been used up by two franchises already, so yeah...)

Awesome, can't wait for it!  "Polishing a gemstone" is a very apt description in this case, as this quest is one of my all time favorites!  :D
