Several years ago I started on SwanSong~Genesis.
Through countless betas and corruptions it was shelved, worked on again, repaired, shelved, worked on again.... anyway, some 4 years later I have finally completed it.
It's a fairly large quest, with a very large overworld, cave complexes, and the full 9 levels as well as some side quests.
It isn't all that I had hoped and planned it would be, but that's another story.
I have just a few minor details to finish up and Elise is still testing it for me as well so I expect it to be released within about a week or so barring any unforeseen setbacks.
franpa has reported some player bugs with the 1200, so we'll see where that goes.
here are a few initial shots, more to follow.
But I want burritos...
Looks awesome man, can't wait to play it!
When you release this quest, you'll be my hero!
After all the setbacks and crap with Zelda Classic and its developers, I'm very happy to see you're about to release this epic quest! 😊
Thanks Pete, Elise has been my inspiration, and the target date for it's release is March 27th, her birthday.
NO BURRITOS DFW, Shoelace has spoken.
In SwanSong~Genesis the traditional "passageways" have been replaced with sidescroller levels, here are a few of those.
The Beehive
Castle Passageway
The Icehouse
The Firehouse
Oh wow, an official announcement thread 😃
Looks awesome. The third screen of the desert area, and the second to last "Spider Island" shots look amazing. The Beehive area looks really cool too. It really makes me think of Metroid meets Maple Story. I'd like to do an LP of this, granted I ever get around to fixing my Movie Maker issues.
That would be great Anthus, I have the camstudio but haven't had very good luck producing anything of quality with it.

Looks great! But we've waited 4 or 5 years, what's another 2? Why not add all the crap you intended? And make it all it can be. Looks great but just imagine if you tweaked it just a little� Ya know, here and there, just a little....😉
Enjoy Life!
Thanks - Joe

The betas only like burritoes. Tacos give them indigestion. 😉
What bugs have I reported that your interested in freedom? I think I've reported maybe 2 in the past few months lol.
Well, CamStudio records fine, it's just a matter of making sure they save right.
Here's a couple more shots.
The first shot shows the "before map", where it shows what items you can expect to find in that level.
This is the mine cart ride in level 1
^ Is that done with scripting, or screen cycling?
there's no scripts in this quest.
It uses freeform combos and timed warps
In one of the side quests in SwanSong~Genesis, Link must restore the water to Zora Meadows.
The Zora are so pleased that he is given the flippers, and access to their waterways.

I've decided to release this Friday, March 26th (this coming Friday)
Elise's Birthday is Saturday the 27th and this is her Birthday gift. ;O)
:heart:
So... Save her from the evil one, and wish her a HAPPY BIRTHDAY! :naughty:
