A map would have been really really useful. I kept getting lost, but it was pretty fun. The hit detection didn't feel right, and the sounds were kind of annoying to tell the truth (also, no sound-disabling option).\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I was happy with the ending. I couldn't understand what the chests were for. Is there a way to open them or something? You get extra points in the community section for the level editor. Like you said, it was pretty unoriginal.

A sound card is highly recommended for high class \r\nwhite noise sound effects.\r\nYou start this at your own risk. I take no responsibilities whatsoever if something happens to your PC.\r\n\r\nThe given theme:\r\n----------------\r\nIt's dangerous to go alone. Take this!\r\n\r\n\r\nThe Gameplay:\r\n-------------\r\nIt's a rather unoriginal Zelda clone. Fetch items, battle monsters and find out how to use your new weapons.\r\nOnce you have all you need head for the almost hidden exit (on the west side).\r\n\r\nControl by cursor keys, Z\/Y to toggle weapons, control to use a weapon (once acquired).\r\n\r\n\r\nThe Sourcecode:\r\n---------------\r\nThe full sourcecode plus a VS 2008 solution is included, so you can basically change the game as much as you want to. \r\nIf you do so then please be fair and \r\n\r\nA) keep mentioning where you found the sourcecode and include a link to my homepage and \r\nB) notify me if you intend to release a modified version.\r\n\r\nThe code itself isn't very clean and includes some ugly hacks, but that's the sake of time schedules.\r\n\r\nPress Alt-Enter to toggle window\/fullscreen mode\r\n\r\n\r\nThe author:\r\n-----------\r\n\r\nGeorg \"Endurion\" Rottensteiner\r\n\r\nYou can download this game from the authors homepage http:\/\/www.georg-rottensteiner.de. \r\nOn the homepage you find also a lot of other games for free.\r\n\r\nIf you want to report bugs or have ideas for additions email me at georg@georg-rottensteiner.de\r\n\r\nNeat: Looks like you need to put http:\/\/ in front of the download link.
