Been playing #TheSecretOfMonkeyIsland with my oldest kid and we're loving it. I realize I haven't actually re-played the series since the special edition came out in 2009 (and of course, each new game upon release).
These games defined my childhood (together with #ALinktothePast and #Quake).
So here's for a new generation embracing the magic of #MonkeyIsland!
Thanks @grumpygamer! Not all heroes wear capes 😁

Oh. Turns out I haven't played a full game (aside from some #MetroidFusion randomizer I forgot to toot about) since Sonic Origins in January.
Anyway, it might just have been a long time since I last played it, or maybe there are translation differences from the PAL version I used to play? A lot of really awkward English lines, regardless.
But it's a great Zelda game. The blueprint for OoT.

So it’s #vgmwednesday again? Well, since it’s on #NintendoMusic now, here’s the Hyrule Castle theme from #Zelda #ALinkToThePast:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVsaNbPuvRI
God this song has just become iconic hasn’t it? Appearing in basically every Zelda game since ALLTP, it’s one of the most popular recurring themes in the series, and for good reason.

#ALinkToThePast is always a good time.
Though, something i have noticed is two minor things with the #GameBoyAdvance version.Firstly, when using the pegasus boots, you can dash through pots instead of bonking of them. This wouldn't be a problem if I didn't utilise a pot bonk in Ganon's tower to skip a section with invisible floors.
Secondly, there is a small change to Ice Palace in Basement 5 and 6. It changes the puzzle before the boss fight. In the SNES version, you push a block down to the floor below to put on a switch, or use the Staff of Somaria. In the GBA version you have to drop yourself down on the other side of a wall that wasn't there in the SNES version.
I am not explaining it well.But anyway, that was a comfy deathless run, now to see if I can get into the 4 Swords bonus dungeon!
-
So, something I find quite interesting.
The missable achievements for the #GameBoyAdvance version of #ALinkToThePast don't include any of the damageless boss fights.
Missables are only the free fire shield and a deathless run.
This implies that you can re-fight these bosses without having to restart the save file. That's kinda interesting. Might have to explore that at some point.
ALttP definitely is the palette cleanser I needed after Chu Chu Rocket.
It is my most completed game, but that was because there was a period of time I was doing randomiser runs, either solo, races, or co-op runs on a semi regular basis.
So this completion should be a pretty gentle cruise, which is what I need right now.
As an additional fun fact, the GBA version was the first one I ever completed, I remember borrowing aLttP from somewhere on the SNES, but never finished it. I got stuck in Ice Palace.

Probably shouldn't be playing on this yet but my partner has agreed to let me have my #RG40XXV early so I'm beginning my adventure.
First port of call is #LegendOfZelda #ALinkToThePast. I've never played the game, yes. Well, not really. I played it as an 8 year old who didn't know shit about nothing; I never stuck with it.
30 odd years later and I'm finally ready to scratch it off my list of shame.
-
WE DID IT! WE DID IT! OMG YES! 🎉🎉🎉
It took over 3.5 hours across two nights, but we finally got a flawless victory against Ganon. We really struggled with the firebats, but we learned an attack pattern combined with aggression and ideal positioning so we only had to deal with a single firebat ring cycle.
The trick is to be super aggressive from the beginning, then when Ganon moves down, position yourself on the right between Ganon and the fireplace. You'll be able to bounce back from your attacks a little bit faster, get more hits in more quickly, and limit exposure to firebats.
This may be our favorite mastery so far!

We're only one achievement away from a Mastery of The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past! The statistically hardest achievement is the one we just completed. Now to attempt a perfect Ganon fight.
We don't have high hopes, in part because it is very late, but we will try for about an hour, then it'll be time for bed.

We are making good progress in our final run of The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. Turns out we made a mistake during save file duplication and had to start from the beginning instead of starting from Dark World. A small delay, but soon we will enter dungeon 2 in Dark World, then we will move on to 4 to get the glove upgrade.
We are enjoying the challenge of this bottleless run. We died a few times already as a result, but we're happy about the difficulty of these achievements. When we finally get them, it will be validating.
But... Will it be what finally puts us in the Top 10% on RetroAchievements? Time will tell.

We made great progress in The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past tonight. Only four achievements left to go!
The bottleless run is going to be quite the challenge, but my headmate assures me we have enough experience with the game to pull this off.

#9 (2024-10-02) #TheLegendOfZelda #EchoesOfWisdom
Funko Pop aesthetic, "borrowed power" gimmicks, and unnecessary dialogue about Link being "the hero" while Zelda is "the priestess" aside...
I had a mostly great time. Too many monsters for a game where fighting is less than straightforward, perhaps, but there were some great combat puzzles.
The game also expanded #ALinkToThePast's map in interesting ways, with neat puzzle and obstacle designs.

Fanmade Zelda #roguelike made in #GameMakerStudio by #JustinBohemier over the duration of 4 years. It's using #ALinkToThePast assets, but as I'm typing this it hasn't been DMCA takedown'd by Nintendo yet.

The moment to moment gameplay is almost entirely faithful to the original, and it's a very cool concept... although it definitely has room for polish & some expanded mechanics.
I can't beat Agahnim. 😢

#7 (2024-09-20) #TheLegendOfZelda #ALinkToThePast #randomizer
Not something I've put in my "finished games" thread before, I believe, but I started a new seed/run of the old ALttP randomizer two days ago and have played when I've had the opportunity.
I've learned a bit from watching streamers recently, but I also found I'd forgotten some item locations since it's been so long since I last played.
Finished at just under 4 hours.

So I used to think that Doom was my comfort game. It's a solid choice, I won't lie.
But I am somewhat doomed out, as you can imagine. So what is my next choice for something to play to catch my breath before the next big thing?
A little gem called #ALinkToThePast . Which I think has superseded Ocarina as my favourite #LegendOfZelda game.
I went through of a period of doing randomiser runs of this game on a near daily basis. I know this game, almost, like the back of my hand now. So playing it vanilla, with some interesting challenges, was definitely quite refreshing, but I hope I never have to no damage Mothula or Blind again... Or get the final Mothula hit with a Bee.
This was a nice quick mastery before on #Retroachievements before I go to Berlin for a family wedding.
Does it bother anyone else that Link is blonde in the promo art but has pink hair in-game?

#Celeste for #pico8 is challenging but completable!

It's always fun buying secondhand video games and seeing the old saves on the disc or cartridge. 😋

For a friend's birthday(which was originally in February), I decided to learn crochet and created Bunny Link from A Link to the Past! He's a bit scrungly looking, but he finally made it to his home today.

I loved how they redid just about all the concept (instruction manual?) art for the GBA version of Zelda: A Link to the Past to be more modernized. It’s really fun to look through all the art style changes.
This doesn’t generally happen nowadays because companies don't tend to go back and just redo all the concept art to be more modern-style with the originals as reference.

I also got the game for the GBA at some point. It is almost identical to the game for SNES. Really #perfect for on the go.
It also includes Four Swords which can only be played with 2-4 players and combine puzzles in both games. I didn't get a chance to play it because I don't know anyone who has it too. lol
