Yeah, the correct term to use here is "cool"
It's cool when devs just put weird one off things in games, people took the time to conceptualize, draw out, sprite, animate, and code an enemy used for a single area, maybe even in an optional or hidden place. Knowing that not everyone will see it. That takes guts.

It's cool, and shit like that always puts a smile on my face.

Good eye.

There's some fun cheats to fiddle with (hookshot any surface, every wall is climbable), a built in randomizer, fully customizable controls/HUD, the ability to use the Dpad for items/boots/tunics, and my favorite thing is using the high quality models for dropped items.
Like you know the fancier looking rupees you get out of chests? You can have those spawn in the world.

You can also adjust the speed of climbing ladders/vines, and the speed of block pushing.

The real good shit I've seen in Ship of Harkinian:
>Option to hold B and skip dialogue
>Option to Speed up block pushing
>Option to Speed up vine climbing
>Option to Skip treasure chest animation (Link just kicks all chests open)
>Visual stone of Agony
>Mute Navi
>Mute low heart warning
>Option to be able to put away shit with the A button immediately rather than having to stand there for like 2 seconds
>Restore red Ganon blood

Then there's some other cool optional shit they added like blue fire arrows that can melt red ice, and light arrows activating sun switches.
There's some fun cheats that I wanna fuck around with later too, like making the Hookshot latch onto anything.

Respectable taste, and good reasoning behind each. LoZ1 is pretty high up there for me as well, I actually find the original Zelda's combat to be fucking fantastic, and I've spent many, MANY hours playing a lot of custom quests with Zelda Classic.
Link's Awakening is another personal favorite of mine, partially from a lot of childhood memories with it being my first game with my gameboy I got for my birthday at the age of like, 5 or 6. But I also love the game for how snappy it is and the weird, dreamlike and sometimes sad setting and tone.

I just like Zelda.

Personal recommendations are:
>Link and Zelda: Panoply of Calatia
>Link's Quest for the Hookshot 2 (don't bother with the first)
>Isolation
>Zelda's Butt
>The Slipstream
>The Lost Kingdom of the Banana Blood God
>Depths of Malice
>Mike's Fun House

Save Mike's Fun House after you get more experience with Zelda Classic quests because it's fucking hard and dickish, but genuinely one of the best.

Man. Spunky pink haired adventurer grill Link is pretty good.

I enjoyed shooting those stupid clams in the mouth with the Hookshot, and listening to those spikeball enemies roll around is really satisfying. Great music and atmosphere in this dungeon.
Fuck, I'm starting to feel the urge to go through OoT again.

Zelda Classic is fucking amazing. Have some personal favorite quest recommendations:

Link and Zelda: Panoply of Calatia
Link's Quest for the Hookshot 2
Zelda's Butt
Depths of Malice
Wizzrobe's big day out
Mike's Funhouse
Quest 744
In the lost kingdom of the banana blood god
The Slipstream

That should be more than enough for you guys.

I should try using that thing next time I play OoT, it's not like you'd really lose them when puzzle solving.

Thanks anon of culture, I also do hate Hell.

That'd make sense. Probably the shift of Saria being the sage came into play to give Link a friendship which would play into the early story since Mido (if we're going off of the final game's stuff) would be more of just an asshole to Link and not making sense as a sage. Or perhaps Link was meant to be good friends with him and he was a chill dude, but someone shifted him into being Saria since the dynamic between Link and Saria being childhood friends and possible boy/girlfriend material being more dynamic.

I fucking love the title screen of Zelda 2, it's a cool setting, the sword looks cool and I love the song.

These are my favorite things from the leak, easily. I can't get over how good the posing is on Link for these frames.
Thank you anons for digging these up and posting them here. My day has been made.

Dang.
ML64 is getting a .wav import tool and I can't even get a working midi to .seq/zseq sequence conversion out of seq64. I hope it's documented better than the latter tool I mentioned.

>>6454063
ALttP manual art Link?

Will you add a Linkguy face?

That's exactly what I wanted. You have no idea how happy I am to get this implemented and how easy it was.
I'm really happy about the bomb sprites too

>>5384198
No, instead of further shitflinging, I got some more good conversation in this thread.
I've been proven wrong before in threads like these, and every time it happens, my faith is restored just a little more.

>tfw you have a surplus of rockets and you find a stash of extra rockets, so you just turn around and blow up some poor stupid imps that happened to cross your path
Ammo management is so satisfying sometimes
