Shane, why does the house change?

Simple, I'm doing a graphical update for the GB set.

[Russ]

So today, I finished one of the final bosses for my quest. It's not perfect, but I'm really happy with the way it turned out overall. Now, I just need to make the dramatic post-final boss cutscene and the ending scenes, and the first of the three endings will be done. So close now...

Yet more custom enemy stuff. I made a red Gel enemy that will actively hunt you down and try to hold you still so other enemies can attack you easier, as well as a green counterpart that panics and runs away from you until it has a chance to grow into a green Zol, whereupon it gains enough confidence to stop running away. It won't turn back into a Gel upon death, though.

I replaced EZGBZ's Octorok selections into the typical combination of GBC Red/Blue Octoroks for the fast versions and Red/Green Deku Scrubs from the tile database here for the slower ones. I haven't modded their behavior yet. I haven't decided on a good difference between the two other than making the Scrubs insta-die when hit by a fire attack. I'm not sure they'll have enough health to make it a difference though.

I re-did the graphics for the NES Moldorm, the Z3 Moldorm, and the small boulders, which revealed that I had forgotten my brown shades for my custom palette. The two Moldorms are going to get some behavior changes as well. The NES one will be slower with more health, and the Z3 one will have less health, but will actually be faster than Link, to try and make them a bit more like the actual ones in LttP.

At this rate, I'll have every enemy in my quest wielding all customized behaviors, plus the fully custom enemies I'm putting in as well.

i made a 2.5 version of my tropicana island quest it was made about three years ago in 192b183 origionally.

That should appear whenever you blow the whistle.

After reading this, you have no idea how tempting it is to make an item that calls an air strike.

Teach me, oh wise one! Teach me the ways of the Scripting Master!

Nah, that's really cool. Good job

[DragonDePlatino]

I figured out how to make a custom counter without having the script. I also created a series of valuble treasures that use said counter. Also, sprited an EZGBZ Blacksmith and Anouki.

i worked on fixing some simple bugs in my game and resigned the lost swamp(swamp instead of a forest... )

Expanded on this. I added some neat stuff to my first scripted boss.

[Russ]

So I did my big scripted cutscene and ending. Now the first of the three endings is finished. One down, two to go.

Today I scripted a brand new enemy, 100% from scratch, my first one in over a year. It's a walking rafflesia flower, with two types of fancy projectiles: floating seeds that zigzag chaotically as they fly across the screen, and fireballs that slightly home in on you (you can thwart them with a sharp enough sidestep). The flower also takes up to 6 less damage from all attacks when its petals are closed-- but on the other hand, when it opens its petals, it surrounds itself in a cloud of spores that do continuous, no-knockback-no-invincibility damage to you if you're in melee range (in addition to its two projectiles).

Making the projectiles fly in such cool patterns was super fun. Ahh, the things you can do with sine waves and radial fractions!

Oh and this enemy has a chance to disable your items or scramble your controls if it hits you with its seeds. That's a thing too.

So yeah, lot of progress lately. Progress feels so awesome. It's currently about 6 AM, and I figure maybe I should take a shower and then walk 3 miles to Starbucks for some coffee and some more scripting. The exercise should help stimulate my body and my mind with it, then after a mocha I can turn on my favorite, traditional japanese Koto/Skahauchi Flute zen music and get to work in power-mode.

i found a rafflesia flower in my animal crossing......it was swarming with flys.....

[SpacemanDan]

I just about finished the first of three super weapons you need to fight in order to get the second level sword.

Every now and then, this will happen. (This screen was mostly to test stuff, so no, it's not done. )


It's a burst missile launched from the Hrimfaxi. Once it actually hits the ground...



Things go bad. And fast. Those explosions will deal a whopping 10 hearts of damage. This is, however, completely avoidable. The missile's explosions will wreck everything below a certain height. (Height is noted on the top right. I'm just not sure the exact scale I'm going to use for it. :S) So the key is to find terrain high enough to stay out of danger.

What's really nice is that once I'm done this script, it'll only need a bit of tweaking to make Stonehenge work. (Which obliterates everything above a certain height) And I already have Excalibur done. (I posted about that earlier, I believe.) Which will mean I can design all areas using these. It will be...fun.
