Nolornbon - I have to say it, that palette is hideous. I just... ugh, I just don't like it... at all. And there's not much variety to it, which I guess doesn't matter since it's Classic, but it still doesn't look all that good from a map perspective.

Rambly - Voted here. Very excellent Classic map with variety in design and palettes. There's always something appealing about well-designed Classic maps, and this is it.

LordSettra! - This is an almost exact copy of Mabe Village, the Mysterious Woods, and the coast. This takes no creativity whatsoever, especially since you didn't even change the tileset. I'm a little disappointed.

Gonken - It's a nice-looking map, but full of those ninety-degree mountain tiles I hate so much, and the bright palettes are just unbearable to me. Your design is good, I've seen better, but yours is up there, it's just got these little problems that don't sit well with me, so it's not like there's anything wrong with you. Or me, it's just my preference.

Believe me, it's not THAT easy to rebuild a part of the map of Link's awakening.
The leght-width-proportions are different in the gameboy-game and in zeldaclassic. And it was my goal to copy the map, don't worry. ;-)

@Gonken:
Great map! Especially the dessert-part. I have nooo chance against you. XD

@MigoKalle:
Whats wrong with the way, I posted my map? I didn't use .png, I know, but is that all or did I make another mistake?

It's small, hard to see. If you want to combine maps, and be able to zoom in correctly, you have to keep the original dimensions of the "blue" area.

I voted for Gonken, even though it seems extremely easy to get lost on that map.

It's still not your work, it's Nintendo's, with literally almost no changes to it besides these "proportions" of yours. If it was rebuilt in a different tileset with some layout changes, then that's fine, but this is almost identical to the original.

Nolornbons classic forest map is really good. I like how you use the tileset.
Ramblys map is great too, wish I could play the quest of that map. LordSettra, what I don't like about your entry is the quality of the screenshot. I can't zoom it . But I always like to watch remakes of official zelda maps.
And Gonken: Great map! I'm loving the new tiles in the canyon area. I just don't like the lava area so much for whatever reason. Everything else is looking perfect!
Also, I finally realised that you're rayo from the german site.. I feel stupid

I am not Rayo, I am Gonken working with Rayo

And the lava palette in my map is bad.

Oh, well. I wish you guys good luck with the project!
And wow! I really like the cactus tiles in the desert. I almost can't believe that you did this map in ZQuest. Amazing

OK, thank you.

Thanks! I made those tiles on my own, I'm not sure If i will keep them for my new project or not, I might release them if not.

Gonken, whatever quest you are working on, finish it. I want to play it.

[Twilight Knight]

Gonken your graphics are so high quality and clean, the palettes are perfect. I hope you release this as DoR 3.0 one day.

[King Harkinian]

@Twilight_Knight YESSSS!!!!!!

I voted for Gonken because only god himself could create a map more beautiful than that. The palates, graphics, and screen design are great, and I wish it was all part of an actual quest. Without a doubt Gonken should win.
