You give him bait. If you don't have it, go exploring the dark world a bit.

I'm a little stuck in level 1. (Yeah. That early.) I'm missing a key to unlock a treasure chest, and I see a key to the left of the first screen that I can't seem to reach. I imagine I need this key, but I have no idea how to get to it. Also, toward the left section, I noticed a crystal orb that didn't respond to my sword. Do I need the candle to activate this? If so, is there a way to get more magic without having to go back to the beginning, or will I need to go to the guy who gives out the quiver again?

To get more magic, yes you would need to see the quiver guy again,but fortunately you don't need the candle for pretty much anything for a while. It seems that you're missing the Boomerang. If you've got the map, I'd suggest you search for any rooms you haven't been to. There's a bombable wall that you missed. The boomerang will trigger those switches. If you haven't noticed it, north of where you get the map, the trees form an arrow (this is how you get to that key). Don't be ashamed about getting stuck so soon. This is my first quest and in the end will probably end up being my worst.
Here's some tips:
Don't always view everything in a linear manner. Sometimes you're intended to leave a dungeon early to get upgrades in the overworld.
Remember that this quest is semi classic style. Don't avoid pushing a suspicious block just because it isn't marked.
When exploring the overworld, don't ignore small things like burning red bushes or checking under armos.
There are 2 heart container pieces in each overworld "section" (this includes the dungeon)
There are 4 heart container pieces you need the flippers to get (these are not included in the previous statement)
There are 4 heart container pieces gotten with the hookshot
The dark world dungeons can be done in any order and are all optional except for one
There is a portal between dark and light worlds and you do need to find it for the best ending
To get the best ending, you need all 8 triforce pieces


@vraelo: The newest version is the one in the 2.5 database.

Aha, I thought there was something up with that, but I didn't think of bombing it for some reason. XD Ah well, thanks for the help. I appreciate it. I'm enjoying what I've played so far. Very humorous. XD

One more thing: Level 7 above everything else in this quest will be a (female dog). I am aware that level 7 is a (female dog). If level 7 turns out to be to much of a (female dog) for you to handle, you can feel free to drop the blind requirement at any time and just post your successful attempt. If you ever need cheats for any part, I will be more than happy to give them to you.

Edit: When do you estimate the first part will be uploaded to Youtube? I'm very eager to see it!

I'm hoping for tomorrow, but I'm not 100% sure right now. The first few videos have been edited where need be.

EDIT:

It's not done processing, but here's the link to the first video for when it does:

I'm going to be doing updates more based on progress, though I do cut in the middle of the first dungeon because of the fact that I had no idea what to do.

The family hamster died today. That's always a nice way to start a reply. I'd just like to say thank you. I saw the first part of your Let's Play and it warmed the cockles of my heart. I mainly just used that phrase to see if the PureZC wordfilter would censor the word cockles...I'm pleasantly surprised you found the cannot parse room. I made that while having a frustrating time getting scripts to load. I was also pleasantly surprised that you found some of that stuff funny. I suppose it's the curse of being a developer that everything feels somewhat uninteresting until you have someone directly single it out and give you a compliment for it. I hope you continue to enjoy my work! I'll try to tone down on the armos in Sword of Ruin...

[SpacemanDan]

): I'm really sorry to hear, man.

I find the little easter-egg like things actually very amusing, as well as the humour. But now I'm stuck again. I opened the hole up, but I need the boomerang, it seems, to trigger the room beyond the room with the arrow. Was I supposed to get it before this dungeon, or am I not looking hard enough?

[Moosh]

You need to bomb the south wall of the room where you get the map. I expected the player to open the subscreen and notice that the only way to get into that room was to bomb the south wall in the room north of it.

[SpacemanDan]

Alright, just popping in to say the next two parts are now up. I manage to get to the end of level 2, so hopefully my videos from here on will actually have more of a goal. (That is, I'd like to clear a dungeon in a video as opposed to cut into the middle of a dungeon, finish it, start the next and cut in the middle of it.)

Anywho, enjoy. :3

Just watched the 2 new parts. LOL @ all the jump cuts (please be aware that these do not in any way bother me). Some comments:
-The only fully custom bosses are in levels 7,8,12, and 18. Yes. That is right. 18. There are 21 dungeons in this quest (3 of which have no impact other than giving you items). Don't worry though. The dungeons are for the most part easier after level 9.
-I don't think the continue trick is "cheating", so go ahead and use it all you like.
-Yes, Ghoma being off center WAS a glitch with the Zelda Classic player.
-Level 2 is probably the second worst (by being overly difficult) level in the quest excluding the massive final level...my god. Gibdos. Why did I choose gibdos?
-Thanks for finding those few minor bugs (I didn't realize you could get stuck in L2's HCP room)
-My face at you discovering why there's money at the end of each dungeon:


Edit: Just tried to make a Youtube account. Guess what: it seems every Pokemonmaster name is taken. It also seems that this goes up into the thousands (yes, even 744 was taken)

Glad you liked them. I can't believe it took so long to click in that:
A) You get no money.
B) You're out for the hookshot
C) The hookshot is for sale at the beginning
D) You get money after beating dungeons

Also, I don't think that's a bug (stuck in HCP room of level 2). I think you can hit the switch with the boomerang, I just had a massive brainfart and forgot about it. But I'm not sure.

[SpacemanDan]

(Ack, double post. D: )

Unfortunately, I won't be able to put another video out tonight. Well, I could, but like I said, I want to actually complete a dungeon per video, unless it's really really long. Anyways, I'm a little stuck in level 3. I've got the flippers and 3 keys, but have no idea where to go. I imagine there's some sort of dive warp I'm looking for or a spot I can swim by, but I'm not finding it. I also get the feeling I'm missing something painfully obvious, but that's how I tend to be. XD

Anyways, help on this would be greatly appreciated.

[Obderhode]

Could you help me find Level 7? I've looked all over and I managed to find A Romhack, but no Level 7!
