I know I already replied, but I did some digging around to see if I can't find any maps. Unfortunately, when I was using 1.90, it was on my dad's computer when I was a kid, and my actual first quest is long gone.
I did find this gem of a map hidden away in my 1.92 b182 folder, from 2002, called "Custom1":
It actually.. could be worse, I guess. Not bad for being 11, or 12 though, and really having no idea what I was doing.
EDIT: Wow.. I actually had a decent amount of stuff done for this quest. Doesn't mean it is good, but here's more maps, yay.
Shitty coast area. Woo-hoo.
Lava cave area. Impeccable screen layout.
I think this was Level 1? It's probably unbeatable!
Some slight improvements.
Everyone loves side scrollers where you can't even jump.
The only thing consistent about this quest is its inconsistency.
When 1.92 b183 (then 2.10 a few months later by the time I got into ZC again) came out, I got more serious, and made this overworld, which has been all but scrapped. I would honestly consider this my first real quest cause it was when I actually started to learn what I was doing, and learned how t make things not be complete garbage basically.
(I'm not sure what's up with the water corners, they didn't look like that before.. oh well.)
