WARNING GAME IS NO WHERE NEAR READY, PICTURES ON THIS PAGE CAN STILL VARY.




STORY

The loremasters of Hyrule hold the devine secret.

Just over 1 century ago, death and disaster wiped Hyrule of all that was good.
An impure twilight covered the land and creatures spread fear throughout Hyrule.
The sacred temples of the land were theived of their holiness and the powers that held both the world and the twilight in harmony were imprisoned.
Then one day, a boy from a village with a charmed life and cruel destiny appeared as odd as it seemed it felt like he was sent by the gods to banish the evil that covered the land in twilight.

But what happened to the evil that was banished?

The evil known as a man famous for his lust for power was stripped of his godly powers and taken back to a place that he knew only too well.
Once the body had been destroyed the soul, like all souls, found its way into the Sacred Realm and was there put on trial by the gods.

The evil man known as Ganondorf had once been there before but was banished away to the twilight Realm due to his terrible powers.

Now that the Twilight Realm has been restored to peace and shut away from the land of hyrule, the gods had to think of another way to deal with the evil.

This time the gods were unforgiving.

Ganondorf was sent to the darkest hole of the realm. There, even deadlier and crueller souls than his had resided since the dawn of time and none of them had broken forth and so the gods were comforted that they were rid of this evil for good.

They were wrong.

Ganandorf, with hidden power and might broke free of this prison.

Free, within the realm of the gods to hunt down the powers that had imprisoned him and punish them to the end of time.

Meanwhile, the three goddess that had created Hyrule had no choice but to hide in the land they had ruled over, each taking a third of the sacred and mysterious triforce with them.

With the realm under his command Ganondorf openned a new portal to the world, allowing his powers of evil to destroy the peace and plunge the world into darkness once more...

Gameplay
Now most of you are familiar with the legend of Zelda Franchise, Everyone knows the basics of how the game plays,
Basically the game is a mixture between different styles of zelda games.
most of the grounds are familiar, Hyrule field, Lake hylia, death mountain etc.
Now before you start saying oh not another Zelda game, probably won't be good.
Take into fact that i have tried so hard to make this game differ from most others.
for example.We have completely revamped Requiems ABS system to create an authentic Zelda battle style,
We have a fully working Ocarina System, So you can play music to solve puzzles and get to where you need to go.
I have worked my heart out on making graphics for the system, There are Zelda style HUDs and hearts
you will encounter old enemys and new more upgraded versions of those enemies.
A hookshot system has been made for the game but is not gonna be featured in the demo.
Im going for the typical Zelda feel to the game.

Characters
Like all Zelda classics you only need Link.

Features
*Hearts and MP system
*Zelda style items HUD, Rupee HUD, Key HUD
*File select system
*Zelda style gameover
*Ocarina system
*bottle system
*Shooting gallery system
*Lots of places to explore
*Original and new characters
*Old and new weapons
*Much much more to make this Zelda more authentic

I wasnt gonna show anything untill im finished, but as you all been waiting so patiently i decided to leave you
all a treat, be warned the demo is not near completion.

FAQ
Q: Could you please tell me where you get the scripts or send me them?
A: All the main scripts are customized i suggest looking on the script forums so sorry i can't give info,
unless the script is already released, but i doubt it will be a major script at all.

Q: Could you send me the graphics or HUD's?
A: No, yet again these are personally made and customized,
anything that isn't is edited and cut to a needed style and made into many tilesets.

Q: Im making a Zelda game and really need that heart system can you send me it?
A: im gonna say no again, its a customized script, which is for this project.

Q: could you please link me to the demo?
A: If theres no link, there is no demo. simple as.

If after those 4 questions you don't get the hint, then well im sorry but nothing from this project will
be given to you at all.
I do get quite angry at these types of questions as there are more important things to worry about.

Wow... I'm not usually one for fangames, but this one looks might tasty! It's not some half assed newbie hack like most other fangames... It seems to look and follow the Zelda concept and gameplay pretty expertly (what with the ABS and icons and story elements) but is also original in it's own way.

Good job!

[silver4donuts]

Not too shabby, I was actually thinking to myself "no...not again! But then again I've done a fangame of something and didn't do a bad job myself, so how bad could he do?" well, judging by most of the early production, this games looks wonderful, and yet so interesting. The battle system looks like a blend of RPG meets...yes Zelda, this just looks so intriguing right now to say the least. I'll be keeping my eye on you! Hopefully you can finish this. And then I can add you on my list around my other favourite Zelda fan game: Link's Awaking Remake done on 2k3. So go for it! ^^

[twilight1300]

Thanks for the nice comments, I am glad you are both interested in ther game.
The game has a full potential standards, at the moment the games first demo is
at 60 - 70% complete.
I will not intell fully what the demo has featured, i will leave that to unravel itself.
I do have loads of early screenshots. which you may find on my site.

Visit My Website and help support.

I do however need some good scripters, my current scripter is working on his
own project at the moment and is a little to busy to help me.
So remember if you want to help PM me.

And thanks again for the nice comments.

[nighthawk282]

Hm...
A Zelda fan-game.
Now, normally, I wouldn't be too exicted about this, especially since I've seen threads for two other Zelda fan games on RRR. However, this one seems worlds apart of those others. I will follow the project with interest, and have to ask, because I am rather proud of my story telling abilities, what parts of the story you need help with?

[twilight1300]

Well the first part of the story is fine.
I need some inbetween work.
for the inside story and the story that unfolds.
I have done some work on it. but i need some exceptional people.
to help with some extra ideas. maybe even sub stories. for side quests?
If your interested PM me and i will give details and stuff.
as im keeping it confidential.

Oh and does anyone know how to sort out these code boxes so people can use my support banners?

*bump* Project being re-modelled for less lag.

Also more beta testers and proof readers needed

[ah2190]

This is very interesting. Seeing as I've played OoT, I'm interested in how the Ocarina system would work. Would you have to learn the songs, like in OoT, or can you play them straight away without having to learn them from someone of something?

[The Shadow]

Looks very nice. Im not a big fan of either fan games, VX or Zelda, but you made it looks very interesting. I like your mapping aswell.

Nice job

[Ziosin]

Best fangame I think I've ever seen. But then again, I'm a sucker for anything Zelda. I'd love to see a sample, but I don't think I'll try it until a full demo is released.


P.S. Is there a certain plot-related reason why the song of storms is being played inside what looks like a fiery cave (fire temple/volcano?)

EDIT: Looking up, I see you need someone to proof-read and someone to help you with the storyline. I'm a grammar nazi, so proofreading is in my second-nature, whilist storytelling is something that I've been recently working on improving for my dev team's purposes. I'll volunteer for either one, on my spare time; I refuse to work with any strict deadlines, however, as school is quite demanding.

EDIT 2: Oh and I might be able to help with some event systems if you want, as I'm skilled at eventing in RM as well.

The Ocarina System is a similar style to OOT.
In this one you don't learn the songs in the same way.
You just have to find them. from either people or hidden caves and stuff.
And when you go into the menu you will get a little music icon saying "Song of time" for example.
And it will have the direction keys shown on the top info bar.

So when you play the ocarina. You press the direction keys needed. pretty simple
but the eventing and editing was a right pain.

Looks very nice. Im not a big fan of either fan games, VX or Zelda, but you made it looks very interesting. I like your mapping aswell.

Nice job

Thanks. yeah im not a big fan for fan games.. but i decided to make one as im a massive fan of Zelda

Thanks,for the nice comment. The full demo won't be up for a little while yet.

Im not giving away too much on plots. and theres not a big reason but you will need to play it for a reason.

yeah im always open to more proof readers because everyone see's something different. So yes i will set you up for that.
At the moment alot of things are deadlined. but once the project is properly underway then deadlines will be extended making things easier.
Storytelling positions are on hold for a little bit. but i may need help with backstorys. So i will sign you up for that.
Eventing systems as i say at the moment very slim because alot of events have been thought about.
But i will keep that one in mind i will send you a PM with information.

*IMPORTANT*
as of now Spaces for helping towards this project have now been limited to
scripting and spriting.

All others are currently full.

*additional*
BETA testing for the 30 minute demo is now closed for testing.
However you can still apply for future tests

[twilight1300]

*bump*

The reason why this link is quiet at the moment is because we are all currently testing.
And creating more story.

But thanks for supporting

[Rukiri]

Here's some tips.

- Because you're using RTPsh gfx(which suck) use gfx from an official game.
- Use the original hud, but make it your own"Hearts, Meters, etc"

But other than that, nice.

[Ziosin]

- Because you're using RTPsh gfx(which suck) use gfx from an official game.

That's more a matter of preference. Veteran RPG players (like myself) tend to like the RMVX rtp style, as it helps for a more reminiscent game. I tend to prefer the VX rtp over the XP rtp. Again, matter of preference.

Besides, if he doesn't want to destroy the creativity factor of making an RPG, then he will steer away from using nintendo sprites. It just feels too fan-boyish, and newbie-like to use professional (nintendo) graphics in an RMVX game. I would probably ignore the project altogether if he decided to use nintendo sprites. Unoriginality = bad fan game = pro game clone.

[twilight1300]

haha. yeah im not out for ruining Nintendo.
This game is for VX and im trying to keep the graphics compatability.
As this is a Rpg maker community.
Plus if i really wanted to do that i would use a Zelda game maker.
Which was pretty rubbish to use.

On another note. As for the the Health Bar and stuff.
Do you know how hard it is to put that in a VX engine?
I have looked everywhere for someone thats made such a health system.
but no one has ever thought about it.

But the best i can do is try.
And thats what i intend to do.

and as for the metre any way. i did make it.
its the best i could do.. im no professional. i openly admit

[twilight1300]

*bump*
Project being held back due to new script rewrites.
*this may reduce game lag*

[Ziosin]

Hm. You're using a heart system, linked with the main character's hp, right? If you're using an abs, I might be able to whip up a HP system for ya. I just need all the resources for it (really only the hearts. The game itself isn't needed for this).

[ZephyrX]

sounds like a amazing game to me. what really caught my eye was the Ocarina feature your putting in it. If all goes well this could be quite a popular game here.

[twilight1300]

@Ziosin: i sent you a PM

@ZephyrX: Well i cna guarentee the Ocarina system will not be going anywhere.
as it is now fully implemented.
At the moment i am making fixes to make the game more better.
so its postponed.

[zolaga]

I clicked on this ready to dis you and hopefully stop you from working any farther on this game and end up embarrassing yourself but....
The screenshots and the fact that you don't type like a nooblet have gotten me anticipating the demo. Good luck with this game man.
