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 Your Favorite Game Soundtrack? #GJAsks

There are a lot of soundtracks that I like. One of them is from Sonic Frontiers - specifically the lyrical songs that play during the boss fights. Those songs are totally bangers and they go hard!

WOW! I've reached 600 Followers!!

I would have done this sooner, but couldn't decide what I wanted to do, plus, I had to run errands.

Regardless, thank you all who follow me so far and thank you new followers who've recently followed me as well!

Toontober Day 13 - Secret Squirrel (2020)

Now it's time for some Hanna-Barbera cartoons! I was debating on whether if I should draw his classic design or his 90's design. I went with the classic design.

We have a question and we wanna know: What's your favorite enemy design in gaming? Complete the quest and you'll get 100 Coins!

Toontober Day 14 - Jabberjaw (2020)

"They call him jabber-jabber-jabber-jabber-jabber-jabber-jabber-Jaw! The most futuristic shark you ever saw!"

Jabberjaw was fun to draw. Such a silly and goofy shark.

Pelagos is The Arbiter who judges mortal souls in the Shadowlands. He's also the first explicitly trans character in the Warcraft series. He was introduced in WoW: Shadowlands which GLAAD said "marks a bold new inclusive direction for the seasoned MMO."

This was definitely not on my Sonic Bingo card. 😯

Man, Sega is really going out of their way to get the Sonic brand more exposure. I think they're trying to do what Nintendo did with the Super Mario brand. Having more exposure to other medias.

What's Your Favorite Enemy Design In Gaming? #GJAsks

There are so many enemy designs to choose from!

I would say the Shiekah Guardian from TLOZ: Breath of the Wild. They are scary when you first encounter them & that music when they spot you.

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

Toontober Day 17 - Lion-O (2020)

Thundercats was another great show that I watched during my childhood. I wasn't alive yet when it first released, but I did watch it on Cartoon Network during the 90's. I would come home from school to watch it. :)
