You gotta wonder if he will actually FINISH the demo. I don't know how many unfinished RPG's there are for the 68k, and comparing that with the number of finished ones is quite humbling. I hope he can beat the odds. Unfortunately, the odds for zelda-like games are even worse. Don't get me wrong. I really would like to see a finished product, but, until that happens, I am entitled to remain skeptical about it's completion. Jason, take this as a challenge to prove me wrong :)
Also, although this demo might have been out for a while, it was just recently added to the archives. So, it's new to ticalc.org. Interesting, that 1 program has been added, while the queue for the archives are HOW full? You know, this probably makes it not be a queue. Well, the best of luck to you, Jason.

As far as completing the entire Link's Awakening game, im not going to do that. Its just too big for me to do it alone. However, it will be a fully functionable game, not just a program to walk around and kill things.

Hopefully the source might encourage people to make other Zelda games as well (or create cool personal twists on Link's Awakening; id like to see that).

I keep hearing this demo has been out for a while. It was out for about 2 or 3 days on tinews.net and calcgames.org before it was posted here...so its not exactly an old program just yet :O)

How long did it take you to do all of that? There's a lot in there.

It took me about 3 weeks. Started on New Years.

OMG, you are seriously good!

good? I think you mean (even though I hate 1337, I am going to use it) g0d!

That is 1337! ;-)

1337???? No this is 31337
Oh well, glad that someone is a good programmer on the ti, as it is getting hard to find any good programmers these days, I should know especially in my c++ class...

Great Program, I love Zelda, and the TI 89, plus other things, I have a little bit of a life...

Same thing. 1337 is more popularly used, though.

Hear, Hear!
18 unfinished Zeldaz!

Don't forget the z80 category :)

Everyone, including acz had one or two.

Yeah, there's that void z80 one... or was it finished?

Nope, but still a cool demo.

Yeah, it's r0xx0r.

J'aime bien le jeu Zelda. (That was probably horribly incorrect, but I don't care)

Read: 68k

zelda...cool...Too bad i dont have an 89
So, chickendude and root did you ever make kirby w/out me?

w/out => w/o

I'm not them (obviously), but I think they abandoned it because you LEFT.

Actually, we never started. Instead, we started working on a different program: Monopoly :)

And I can't wait! lol

I think ticalc should email my chemistry teacher and tell him not to give me any work and pass me with an A :O)

I havent been able to work on Zelda since this release...so it might be a while before i can post the 1st dungeon.

- Jason

I'll do it for you, if you do it for my Bio teacher next marking period! lol

I'll do it. What's the e-mail?

Well ive posted the source, so anyone who wants to start messing around with the code can. The pending queue is infinity tho, so it probably wont be posted for a while.

If you want it now, you can download it by clicking on my webpage (above).

- Jason

Note that Geocities doesn't allow remote loading. So, go to the link above and then type in the link above.

Why on earth wouldn't it let you do that?

Because some people are just messed up like that :p

The the N2H2 people who made BESS and FORTRES. (Behold, the power of a boot-disk!)

Oh yeah, btw people... if any of you are the "destructive" type at your school, in the computer sense... be careful, lol I accidentally sent a winpopup message to the whole school. The administrators got it and they said they were going to talk to me, but they never did, so I don't think it matters. lol

Accidently? How'd you do that?

Not doing it on purpose :p
Well, I guess he didn't specify a specific adress or somethin :) At our school, we get ISS if we send NetSend messages or go into MS-DOS (unless we're in a programming class, of course :p)

Yeah System admins at schools tend to be morons. Once, in high school, I sent a help request to the admin (on a Mac) and he told me it "crashed his internet". Apparently he was trying to check his e-mail and it got interrupted. I was banned from the computers for a week. NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH HIS INTERNET CONNECTION, OR HIS COMPUTER. He just had to click 'Check Mail' again, and it worked.

Total moron. Too many people are computer illiterate(sp).

Someone should make a level editor for Zelda so those who don't have any programming experience can help to finish the game and make others. Does anyone have the programming knowlege to do this?
