My first quest, BC1st, has just been released!

If you have any questions or catch any bugs, post them here. I want to know how well I did on this one so that my future titles will be better! 😉

😮dd: Where is it? 😮dd:

annot, its in the database at zeldaclassic.armageddongames.net
I've finished the first dungeon already. Very nice remake boram_c Found a few treasures in new areas that I'll need to go back and get later. Spent almost the last hour looking in the area given in the clue for level 2 but still can't find it. It wasn't in the obvious place that I first checked out so can you give me a tiny little bit more of a hint?

Thanks in advance

Use what you found in the first dungeon to expose the next dungeon. I suggest that you start near the Armos statues.

Found and finished level 2. Having a lot of fun but will have to stop and try to find level 3 later tonight when I get back. Love the way you've made your quest. People have to really think where the levels are.

I'm in lv2 and have gone as far as I can. I need the bow. Can you give me a hint as to where it might be? So far you've done a nice job. Looking forward to see what you've done in lv3

I assume you've encountered a Gohma who won't let you advance�

There should be two keys within the second third of Level 2; one locked door within the second third leads to the aformentioned Gohma, and another leads to the Bow. You'll need to fight your way through a few enemies to reach each key within the second third. If you reach a dead end room, check the blocks.

I've been looking for level 3 but can't find it even with the hint given. I did find and finish level 4, and have even found an extra heart and the letter. Please will you give me another clue to help me find level 3?

Thanks in advance,

Whoa! Didn't expect anyone to find the Letter so fast!

Here's a hint: In the original quest, there were not one but three locations to get BIG BUCK$!!. If you know where the two, lesser-known locations are at, then you know where to go.

Sorry but that doesn't help me. I can only remember one spot and I've already checked over there and it wasn't there.
The only reason I found the letter was because I was trying to find the 3rd level and was burning, bombing and using the bow and arrow all over the place.
Starting to get frustrated now so if anyone else is playing can you please send me a pm or post here.

Thanks in advance,

I notice one bug in this quest. The side warp was not set for Link to warp out of Level 4. So if you want to exit this level, other than getting the Triforce, you will have to exit, then hit "Save", then restart.

As for Level 3, go to the Lost Woods screen, then go right. Burn one of the trees. Hint: It's the same tree that led to one of the 100-rupee bonuses in the original First Quest.

Good catch! I'll have an updated version set up soon.

I've finished the first 4 levels and have found both levels 5 and 6 but keep dying trying to just get through level 5. Please a hint from anyone as to where the blue ring is will be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Push every block you see�not just the ones you expect to be pushable, but also the others in the room. I suggest you check in a room that has diagonally arranged blocks. If you find a passage that leads to a spiral path and Wall Masters, you've hit the spot. Just be prepared to pay for your ring�and I'm not talking about rupees!

Thanks for the help boram_c. If I have to give up a heart to get the blue ring, I'm first going to try to find a few more hearts so at least I can get the magic sword.

Hearts, yes; Heart Container, no. I just mean that the ring is heavily guarded.

Thanks for the help on the bow. Got it. Where is the 1st bomb upgrade? I seem to use mine up pretty fast. Also, where is the ladder? I thought it would be in lv3. Having fun so far, even if some of the levels are hard to find. Good job.

I found a bomb upgrade and the ladder both in level 4. If you think some of the earlier levels were hard wait til you see levels 5 and 6.

ms_zelda_lady

Crackers, have you beaten Level 3 yet, because in the level where the ladder is, you need it to finish the dungeon. I think you can find it in level 4.

Oops, Ms. zelda lady mentioned that the ladder was in Level 4, and I didn't see that.

I don't know if it's me or what, but there was a cave walk down bug on screen 81 on the map that level 4 is on that doesn't allow you to take the passageway accross. If it's been fixed that's great, but if not, you might want to.

Oh, dear, I just noticed this as well! So much for my attempt to modify the passageways! I'm on it right a way.

I've sent JayeM a copy of an updated quest file, having fixed the bug mentioned above. Hopefully this doesn't happen again�

I finished lv3 and am trying to beat lv4 but keep dying. I sure could use the hammer for the darknuts. They're kicking my butt. Have died a lot in this level. And you say it gets harder? I do have the ladder. Gotta get myself a ring!!

Do you have the letter yet, so you can buy potions? Also, have you been looking for additional heart containers in the overworld?

As far as the hammer, it is not in this quest. Even if it were, you couldn't access it because the subscreen used is the same as for the regular Zelda 1st and 2nd quests.

It takes some searching to find the letter. You cannot get extra Heart Containers with Bombs and Candle alone, and you cannot buy the Blue Ring in stores. Wait until Level 5 before you worry about getting the Blue Ring.
