Zelda Classic 2.5 Showcase

Details here: armageddongames.net/showthread.php?95568-Announcement-of-ZC-2-5-Showcase

This is where the nominations are made and discussed and where quests will be showcased. To make it clear all you have to do to nominate a quest is mention it.

[This post will be updated when I am not half asleep]

-reserved-

It makes sense that since @Jamian 's quest Linked to the Past is getting some much attention and is featured on GBATemp it should be the first nomination. Other than voicing any support(by stating what is good about it and such) is there any videos/LPs or reviews?

- Each dungeon is guarded by a custom boss, and there are also a few sub-bosses thrown in for good measure, so I hope you enjoy fighting bosses as much as I do
- It uses the DoR tileset
- Like my previous quests, it takes influences from several Zelda games but the biggest influence is still Zelda 1, so if you're a Zelda 1 hater, this is probably not for you
- Many optional secrets to find

I see the overwhelming enthusiasm continues. That's okay. I'll keep doing this on my own till someone gets interested.

What they find instead are ruins, human remains, and an old foe, Lucis, driven to the brink of insanity.

To their relief, they soon find that most of the inhabitants of the island escaped safely. But their savior is none other than Dracus, the foe they thought they struck down two years ago. Claiming to have reformed, Dracus strikes a deal with them: they must team up in order to defeat the now-insane Lucis. With no other option, Link and Rose accept.

So many questions gnaw on their minds though. What's going on? Has Lucis really gone insane, or is something else more sinister at work here? Why did Dracus help all the people of Palm Island? And more importantly, has he really reformed? Can they really trust him?

You'll have to answer that last question yourself.

We, the watchers of the Golden Kingdom believed that the darkness has faded from this land...we were wrong.

The Ruler of the Dawn Realm traveled through the sands of time to this new land to bring havoc and despair.

Our last hope is a man in green...the Hero of the Golden Kingdom.

He defended our kingdom several times from the Dark Ruler.

If he were to fall, all hope will be lost.

This is where his story begins...

Summary: As I said before, this is a direct sequel to Link's Quest for the Hookshot. Despite this you don't need to have played LQftH to understand most of this quest. In fact, it's probably best for you to have not played LQftH. The plot of LQftH is very simple and gets recapped at the beginning of this quest in case you actually care. This is a full length quest, allthough it's not quite as long as LQftH. This is probably for the best as LQftH suffered from being too long for its own good.

These are guarded by the Seven Sinners, seven demons named after the Seven Deadly Sins. Shortly after telling him this, the same old man mugs him and takes all of his gear that he worked so hard to get. What a jerk. So Link sets out to find the seven Moral Compasses and save Zelda, completely unaware of the forces working in the shadows...

Aside from level 5 (which has my eternal loathing), nearly everything about this quest is perfect. It's also a huge quest; the demo alone is longer than most full quests. Download it, right now. You will not be disappointed (unless amazingness disappoints you).

Watch Eppy's LP of the demo.
