Zelda Classic is one amazing program. You can express your tastes, your skill, and your heart. But why do you do ZC? Is there a particular reason why you do ZC? Voice your reason in the thread.
For me I do ZC to relieve me of my stress. I have one of those hard living lives. What about you?
Why Zelda Classic?

C. There is no reason C.

This is a "Why DID I"
I love Zelda. I wanted a way to express my creativity and I had a large interest in game design and programming. However, My game design days were over before I even started...
I'll use ZC off and on until It, or I dies. I have a feeling that the former will happen first. I will probably never make a quest, but if it ever happens that I even make a game, it will be programmed from scratch, or using one of the many open source engines out there.

Where to start
when i was about 5 (when we had a SNES (the SNES was being replaced by N64) i allways wanted to make my own Zelda game witch turned into LoB (it would have been a lot like LTTP at the time if i could have made it)
Anyway the ression i make Zelda quests (and Billy quests(scorry i had to get that in somewhere)) is becasue it's been a dream of mine to make a Zelda game as the legend of Zelda is my fravitet Vedio game serise
So if you understaed that you now know why

I play ZC to express my creativity and experience, and my unique storyline/s and
also sometimes when there is nothing else to play or just to simply pass the time
Like a Time Machine
except it only goes forward!
Also the idea of almost complete personalization is just so cool
that's why playing quests is awesome too

Five years ago...
I was dreaming about a program with which you can make LttP dungeons with new bosses, enemies and items, and you can share the dungeon with others. I imagined it like you can build as many floors as many floors have you beaten.
When I found ZeldaClassic by accident (on my computer without downloading it myself) I was very happy and started to build a quest right away.
Currently I use ZC to "create worlds". Original worlds. Ultimately original worlds. (Damn, ShadowTiger just fallen in love with me.)
It's just natural that who loves videogames also wants to make one. I was always high on fantasy, I couldn't live without fantasy expresser methods.
I make quests because I want other people to feel what I feel. The dance... The rhytm... The perfection... The hidden messages...
I also love to use ZC to create something that opposes other fantasy products. That whole lot of dumb TV shows and such... A crystal is needed to materialize in the swamp...

I Zelda Classic because since I was a young kid, I wanted to design video games. I have a lot of creative ideas that and innovative things to gave to the video game world, however, I don't want to program things. That is why I went to ZC because I don't need to program things. That is the reason I got out of programing in college. I don't want to do it. But at the same time, scripting is becoming a must, and it actually does drive me away from it.

The same as him... only without the last part... the scripting one. I'm still unsure weather to use scripts yet or not...
So...Well...you know.... I found it by using google... like most people... ''zelda game maker''

I use ZC because I'm a creative and artistic person and I have always dreamed of making games. ZC is a natural choice as Zquest is the best game editor there is.
But why I'm still making ZC quests at the age of 22? Because sadly, I have no life...

It could be worse, you could be 27 and still trying to finish making your first quest like me!
(all done except putting in the endingS)
I like ZC because it's probably the best, clean and cost effective, entertainment out there. Plus there are so many very talented people who make games for this as well, that's what makes it even better. And everyone here seems to be very helpful when it comes to help with a quest or making one.

Have no life?
Hmm... tell me, are you having fun when playing with ZC?
Cause if you are, then you have a life.
If you're doing it tomake time pass... then.... well...

I do ZC because when I was a kid I was introduced to it on the NES. Fell in love with it on first glimpse.
Later down the road when I was older found the player for the PC and figured out that you could make your own quests.
My inspiration comes from those that play my quests. To have even only just one person play them is why I continue with it. That and I still love the game.
