Since I picked up Zelda Classic again in April, I've managed to complete 2 more dungeons on my remake of my quest, "The Flow of Time"!

The game is now in "demo status", I would say! I've had one member on this site (judasrising) offer to playtest through what I have so far. Having a few more testers would be welcome, and if you are interested in helping out, send me a PM and I can add you as a tester. The original Flow of Time was released in March of 2011. If you played any part of the original, it would be really nice to know how you feel about the upgraded version. Although, playing the original is in no way a requirement to be a tester - it just would be nice to know what you thought of the changes!

I love showing progress pictures showing the differences between the original and the remake, below are two links to the maps of level 4.

Wow, the newer version of the map looks really good! Nice improvement, I really like it. Keep it up!

[umbrello]

I second what Davi said. Those new versions look fantastic!

[Obderhode]

Thanks for the support! It is pretty fun going back and revising the maps to be more fun and interesting!

So far, I've had two good testers going through the demo. They've provided invaluable feedback and I've made many changes. As it stands now, I just finished level 5.

 

I'm always a little hesitant to release a public demo. I kind of feel like playing the demo would spoil it for when the final version does come out. I'm not against a more public demo, if people really want it. I just feel like Level's 1-5 is a really large demo. 

 

I'm glad to see that people are interested in the project and I can't wait to release it!

Considering signing up for Beta Testing.

 

What would you want looked for? >.>

[Obderhode]

I'd be okay with another tester if you'd like to.

 

Currently, I'm up to level 7. At this time, most of my testers have only done levels 1-4 since it was all that was available to begin with. 

 

I'd want feedback the most on:

 

1) Bugs, obviously. This could be typos, warp issues, under/secret combo errors.etc.

2) Opinion on getting to dungeons / the dungeons themselves / too tricky,etc. Something that I need to provide better hints for? That kind of thing.

3) Difficulty level. This isn't intended to be a quest where you just die hundreds of times or a quest where you feel deaths are unfair.

Gotcha. Do you mind if I stream it then at some point this week? It'll be easier for me to actually play the levels and make progress a bit at a time. I'm not all that good with cosmetic stuff, but I'll do my best to find the bugs and provide opinions regarding the stuff ya asked for, so whoo~

[Obderhode]

You know, I think I'd be okay with you steaming it, but I'm also kind of reluctant. I know there are several things that will change between the version you'll get and release and it might kind of spoil things once the quest does come out. Would you be streaming all 7 levels if you did?

[WindRobe]

i wouldnt stream if it spoils the game for everyone else  rather wait tuill ful game is done my openion anyways  and all this talk about playing the quest makes want to play it now
