What Retro Game Deserves A Remake? #GJAsks

Personally, I'm a bit iffy with how remakes treat retro games. A few turn out really good, while others miss the mark.

But if I were to guess, I'd pick Zelda 2: The Adventure of Link.


Why?

Because I believe it deserves a second chance of fixing the issues that game had. It's considered to be the hardest Zelda game in the series.

The game definitely had some design problems. Maybe they could balance the difficulty to be fair, but still be challenging for those who like having challenges. If a player fails, it's the players fault and not the game's fault. Because we all know that some old games tend to be very hard and unforgiving and unfair.

Add mini a map for the overworld, adding a proper list of missions that you can keep track of, maps for dungeons, get rid of unfair enemy designs (invisible enemies), remove the Lives system, update the dialog, etc.

Also, they could add anime cutscenes to add more story lore to the game. The art style should remain the same.

I'm not sure what else the could improve upon, but that's my suggestion.

What's A Game You Keep Coming Back To? #GJAsks

I have more than one game that I return to. One of the games that I keep coming back to play is Splatoon 3. I enjoy playing it. Although, I miss the shifty stations from Splatoon 2.

Go Team Heroes!

Here's a colored Miiverse drawing I made back in 2018. It was a Super Smash Bros. Splatfest that was Team Heroes vs. Team Villains.

I finally decided to play Poppy Playtime in anticipation for Chapter 5.

I had some fun playing this game. Of course, I ran into some glitches here and there and had to refresh the save files several times.

Just yesterday, I had to mourn a loss.

It was still so young, and full odds with Shiny Charm

It was fun drawing throughout 2025. I think there was one month where I didn't draw anything, but was busy with holiday stuff. #artsummary2025
