Is there a spin attack in this game? I'm unsure how to get around the 2nd fixed rule in what I believe is the final dungeon.

This is a pretty fun quest, imo. It is cruel, unfair, and short. There have been some improvements suggested in this thread that I think would really make this formula shine, if you ever go at it again. But what you have here is a very solid concept. I am currently in Level 3 with 15 rules. The rules are:
There are a few bugs, and exploits I found, which I posted in the comments. It is possible to view the map if you hold the map button while the quest loads, or while going from a cave or interior area to the overworld/ dungeon This wont work on screen transitions though, if that makes sense. The "no double use B item" rule can be gotten around by simply tapping L, then R really quick, or vice versa. Not sure if that was the intention, but it also ignores double uses if you go to another screen. Sometimes, the no killing enemies on full health rule won't work either. When I start in the 'meaning of life' area, I can kill the first enemy on full health and not die. It will also sometimes ignore the no double B item rule completely sometimes. Not sure why. This isn't a bug, but a controller thing, but it is possible to slash to the right if you slash in any other direction, the tap right one frame later. Link will safely finish the slash animation to the right.

I agree, I think it's a great concept that hasn't yet reached its full potential. You should make a sequel.

I'm gonna give this quest the update it deserves. Some rules are obnoxious and the randomization can screw you over hard.
Here's what I'm thinking:
Find better alternatives for the really bad rules like "Don't use the sword while facing left/right", "Don't get hit while using the sword", "Don't kill enemies on full health" and "No map".
A little more control to the randomness, for example by putting all the hardest rules in one group and making it so you get one of those as every 5th rule.
Replacing the extra minutes a little better. Their intention is to reward you for exploring optional caves.
Stopping the timer in the white sword dungeon.
I feel like updating old quests like this is kind of a waste of time that could be spend on newer quests instead and also most people already played it. But on the other hand this will make the quest somewhat better and I can't exactly keep this quest in it's current state. Lemme know what you think.

That sounds like a really good idea, actually. I dunno how hard it would be, but you could have like a difficulty setting where the amount of hard rules either goes up, or down. This is not something I'm requesting personally, just a thought.

Makes sense. I don't recall having that much trouble with the original version of the quest, but more accessibility is always a nice thing.

So, the boss after Ganon? How do I prevent them from teleporting ON me while I'm slashing with the "don't get hurt by slashing" rule?

My main complaint about the game is that, while some of the rules are unfair by themselves, breaking any of them is always instant death. That is what makes this quest so mean and straight up unfair. This quest would be a lot more reasonable if the game didn't instagib you for breaking any of the rules.

Finished the update and submitted!
The changes:
- The worst rules have been replaced with better ones.
- Now featuring controlled randomness, to give you rules based on a difficulty rotation.
- Added options at the beginning. You can now play without rules, or with more frequent rules or start with all rules active!
- Extra minutes are changed to give you 2 minutes, but are placed more carefully.
- Improved final boss.
- And minor changes here and there.

I like what you did with the final boss. That rule was extremely misleading.
