Some questions from a n00b

14 replies · 3,012 views · Started 22 May 2005

Hello, I have some questions... yes, they will sound n00bish, maybe because I am one 😃 . Here I go:

1. Is it fun to make the game?
2. Is it easy?
3. What kind of thing will I get to do to make the game?
4. I noticed there are three places to download the game for Windows. Does it matter which place I go to download from?

No, you don't have to answer all of them... heck, you don't even have to answer ANY of them. But, it would be nice if you did just answer one.

Thank you to all who will answer "Some questions from a n00b".

1 - Well, it really depends on if you like the quest you're making, but yes, it is fun, for me at least, using Zquest.
2 - Yes, once you learn how to do things. Some more complicated things, like cutscenes, require a bit of thought though.
3 - I don't understand what you mean by this... But you can make quests that are just like the original Zelda, or you can make them a little more like newer Zeldas with different graphics or freeformed dungeons and such.
4 - No, it doesn't matter, all three sites have the exact same files.
5 - Tiles are the graphics of a quest. Combos are a tile, where you can walk on it and a physic, like bush, or direct warp, etc.

No you don't have to download other peoples quest but it'd be a good idea to bcuz you can see what other tiles those people have and what kind of items they used in certain places and so you wont have to play the same old boring 1st quest but keep in touch with me ill be having my quest out in a while itll be ggggggggrreat! :laughing:
