Few times do I see people using some city graphics and you execute well

Good stuff on designing it yourself I can honestly forsee you making something much more out of it and give us a real city

Funny thing is, that map in real life is actually a small village/town

 

But yeah, I'll be trying to make a real city soon in a different quest project. For this project though, I'll be sure to try out converting this onto ZQuest.

 

Oh and thanks for the comment

Link's Quest for Portugal is looking good Eddy! Keep up the good work! 

[Astromeow]

Spent much time this week working and designing quests when I was free

Too much zc today I close my eyes and vividly see my quest

Gonna be fun to wake up morrow n have all day to enjoy my fruits of labor

For Lost Historia, I updated the main overworld palette, giving the overworld that extra colour even if it's just another set of green.

 

For Adaryan, I've been working on the town. You'll be visiting this place quite a lot.

A quest where the hero is a LikeLike? That's great.

 

How does the LikeLike acquire a magic shield? I hope there's a Link enemy he has to smother so he can swallow his shield.

 

I repllaced enemy Like-Likes with one of the graphics that is said is one of the traps, the one that looks like blades

 

you buy magic shields. I put a magic shield that cannot be eaten.

 

It is super suprise how you get your items. resulting in my running out of items to win.

 

copypasting the new sprites ontop of the old BS Link was tedious. and there is still a stray "holdiing up" graphic that turns into Link.

 

I think some of my dungons are too hard

 

the essence of life about the knowlage, I now think I should dedicate a dungon level on puzzles. I'm not to good at those, and it is wrong to rip off other's stuff.

I'm noticing some issues with how ZQuest is working for me at the moment, but I'm not sure if it's an actual bug or if there's some option or something that I don't know about that's causing the issue. If it turns out to be a bug, I'll point it out in the appropriate thread, but I don't want to start complaining to the devs for nothing. Still, it's making subscreen editing even more of a pain in the ass than it is normally.

 

Anyways, besides trying to work around that, I drew a full set of idle and active shield poses and added the GB Shield script to my quest. It works fine, but I'm going to need to rearrange my tiles so that it doesn't glitch out when swinging the sword while the shield is active. If I turn off "Extended Link Tile Modifiers", then the shield doesn't appear at all when facing north. I also re-built my active subscreen so it looks nicer. Everything has that same engraved look as my passive subscreen, but it'll probably need re-doing again depending on how many items I decide to use. For now, I have everything framed in 2x2 Frames, but I may need to use tiles instead so they take up less space if I increase the amount of equipment. At least for now, it lets me see how things should look.

Teaching my five year old brother to use Zelda Classic. He's made two good classic screens albeit with some help from me, patching up errors of all kinds.

Quite a lot actually. I'm about halfway done with fixing my problems with Level 1. I made quite a few cosmetic changes to Level 3. Level 3 has a lot more of a Blood feel to it now and it encourages you to actually use the step latter now. I also nerfed some sections that I feel might be a little too rough for the average player in Level 3. Mainly by reducing number of enemies on screen. I also started Level 5! Level 5 is going to take me some time to figure out how to make, but it should be finished by the expo!

nnothing today. can't think. I am tired. yesterday I moved the maps because of no "eggs in all the one basket"

 

I don't think I can think. it is blocked. bbzzzzrrt. I cannot brain and want to understand how to do all the zquest stuff. but it is not helping. maybe a video does better.

and like. i didn't figure any puzzles. I am bad at puzzles. I should have one dungon for them.  but without ripping off everyone, due to a "how is this done?"  or rip off any in offical zelda games. how were they done?  how does everyone do what they do? like ones where you need to push mirrors around but cannot push them in every way you want, because no push block flag in the way.

I might do a LP on Prepare Yourself by King Aquamentus if I can.

...This is the What did you accomplish in ZC thread, not What do you plan to accomplish in ZC thread.

 

Anyway, I redone the main house palette (and still helping my little brother make his quest, he's got an entire dungeon made. )

[Lejes]

I made a script that reduces the amount of time Zol 2's fire trails are on screen. I also tried to make the fire trails last forever, but failed.

• Well, it didn't take me as long as I would think, but the basic foundation for level 5 is complete. It is quite complex and is heavily inspired by Prismatic Gate from Isle of Rebirth. In fact, some people might say my level 5 is a rip off of Prismatic Gate. Just wait and see, you will see my own creative spark added to it. While it doesn't have the genus of that level, my version is still complex in its own way.

I came up with a few final changes for Adam's Quest II that I will be adding when I get back into working on it, whenever that may be:

 

-I decided to make the enemies that did 1/4 heart damage at the start do 1/2 heart again

-However, I decided to make the game start you with 5 hearts instead of only 3

-Level 5's boss is getting a huge nerf (3-headed Fire Gleeok is a bit too much that early)

-A few more sprite changes

-The "Rustednuts" will be given shields and nerfed to 2 Wooden Sword hits to defeat

-All Darknuts of a similar level will be streamlined to have the same HP instead of the regular ones having less than the other two variants

-Adding in the "Athena" Slimes, which are similar to the Chuchus from Majora's Mask*

 

*Basically, I have unique drop sets for each of the 4 colors. The Red ones will always drop at least a heart and rarely an Elixir (a massive red potion jar which recovers 5 hearts instantly). Blue ones always drop at least 1 bomb on defeat, with 3, 10 and 20 packs being increasingly less common. Yellows drop arrows on a similar scale to Blues and their bombs. Lastly, Greens are guaranteed to drop at least a green magic jar (1/2 bar magic), rarely a red magic jar (4 bars) and even rarer yet a gold magic jar (100% magic refill).

With regards to level 5's boss, a 3-headed Fire Gleeok, I've been wondering what to replace it with. I was thinking of one of the two replacements. Tell me which one you think would be better:

1. A Manhandla 2 that shoots flames out. Would have more HP and take half damage from Bombs and Super Bombs, similar to level 3's boss, which is a regular Manhandla with more durability. I would make it take 3 or 4 hits per head with a Magical Sword strength weapon to kill them. Base contact damage would be 1 heart and weapon damage would be 2 hearts. You would have Roc's Feather to help you avoid some of the damage.

2. Have an upgraded rapid fireball spewing Gleeok for level 5's boss. He would do the exact same damage as a normal Gleeok both on contact and with his stream of fireballs (Magical Shield blockable). I was thinking of giving him 6-8 heads to hack off (the two mandatory ones you fought up to this point each have 3 heads). To be honest, this would probably be the easier of the two bosses, since this guy is basically a fire-breathing Gleeok that shoots a stream of statue fireballs instead of flames. Roc's Feather from the dungeon making it even easier of course.

 

EDIT: Removed the detail of me being away for a day.
