Post by: ShadowBrain on April 21, 2009, 10:40:33 AM
A few, uh, links:

Forget that last "3D" Link's Awakening I mentioned a while back--this is awesome.

So did you actually read any of these links?

I played Link's Awakening a little but never finished it. The portion I did play I really liked. I will eventually guy a GB cart and finish it, and then hopefully play this 3D remake who's screen shots remind me of Mega Man Legends.

Wow, that looks really good so far! Although it is only a few weeks into development, it has very accurate map designs and items!

Yup, this is looking good.  It painfully brings to mind my own inadequacy using Game Maker, however.

The comments.

I don't believe what I'm hearing, it's like these guys are co-executive elitist programmers.

I mean seriously... I've been using Game Maker for years, and I still haven't been able to figure out the 3D engine.

I've seen attempts at 3D before using Game Maker, but those are all crap to what I just saw here.

Yes. Just to lay the issue to rest, I didn't look at those "other" links because, in one case, I knew my computer wouldn't be able to load the video and, in the other, I was posting them out of angst on the opinions apparently expressed therein and felt no need to give them page-hits.

You felt no need to give them page-hits, so you linked them to a forum.

By "other" links, I was referring to this (http://themushroomkingdom.net/board/index.php?topic=12452.msg539091#msg539091) and this (http://themushroomkingdom.net/board/index.php?topic=9323.msg542832#msg542832), respectively (rather, the links I was referring to in those references).

While I love the thought of a 3D Link's Awakening, the pcitures in the links above do not look good. It's awesome that they can use Game Maker like that, but they might as well call it Pinnochio's Awakening, because their Link looks like a puppet.

On another note: I've been thinking of trying Game Maker. Mabey I should stop thinking and actually try..
