Hello everyone: ⏬


It's been a little over a month since I've released Kirby and the Eternal Paradise - Wacky Episode in its unintended but complete state. I've been relayed good sentiments nonetheless, glad some of you enjoyed the experience, thank you! I've had time and space to make peace with the project + the ordeal that came with my sudden departure. This year truly has been ruthless, inside and outside of my online persona.

Although I'm not quite ready to publicly come back to the magical land of game development (it might take years), there are some stirring thoughts in my head about new ideas and ways to take it from the position I'm currently in. I've read words about myself being an inspiration and a source of motivation for some of you, and I've been well aware of the disappointment some have felt upon learning what my plan was for the future.

What I've came back to say is: to try. Try the things you wanna do. You might succeed, you might fail, you might not be satisfied with what you've achieved... Or you might be over the moon! Thing is, none of that is going to be possible if you don't take the steps forward. Be brave enough to start, to accept the responsibility of leading a project (but don't overdo it!), legends don't write themselves from nothing. Whatever happens next is unknown, but one things still is crystal clear: You'll learn. You'll experience. That, IMO, is one of the most important part of any endeavor.

I'll be looking forward to seeing in my limited presence what you guys decide to cook next! The heat never dies :)

Busier times are coming, so here's some WIP footage I've been cooking: Dawn/Day/Dusk/Night, GBC-Style.

+ Environmental Sounds. #zelda #fangame #gamedev

When low on health, you'll now enter Peril Mode, a new mechanic which allows comebacks against very strong foes. Will have further potential with the Rings system💍

Working on weather effects, so I decided to recreate one of the most iconic Zelda scene: Link's House on that fateful night, from A Link to the Past! GBC-Style ⛈️

After months of procrastination, we finally have our first enemy, the classic Octorok! You may find they're a little more aggressive and involved than before, so stay on your toes and fight! (Parts are still WIP)

The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages & Seasons turn 25 today! To celebrate this and the 40th anniversary of the franchise, here's a "Oracles" themed showcase for my GBC-themed fangame ⌛️🌱

Squished boi

Giving myself a kick in the ass and working on some grotto thingies. All WIP footage.

I've added a new type of Mystical Seed: The Deku Seeds! These mix the Deku Nuts & Seeds from Ocarina of Time into a single item, having different effects whether you drop or shoot 'em!
