hmm not sure if the term "Dagger" suits a a zelda game ;), perhaps Knife? or just Thief's Sword..? I like the idea of a spinner as tornado maker, I would like to see it an example first.. I was really expecting that we didn't add any type of transportation system :( but oh well.

Cool! "Thieves Knife"? How about "The Thief's Knife"? Or just Thief Knife.

Heres an example of Link using the Spinner to bring a tornado:

Looks cool! somewhat big the spinner haha, but I kinda get it, I just hope it doesn't end overused ;/, perhaps we can go with a giant leaf that when used makes tornados?

How about the Seed Shooter? It spits tornadoes! Also, th seed shooter has a lot of other capabilities as well, such as fire, rock and ice.

Of course, it's fairly different from the Ice/Fire Rod.

the problem with the seeds shooter is that is either that, or the bow, or the slingshot..

I like the bow and arrow. Speaking of witch, what kind of attachments we talking about here? Will there be a special kind of arrow, like the light arrow?

So have we at the least decided on implementing an enhanced version of the spinner (one that can shoot tornados)?

maybe we should have an item order, kinda like what OOT did:

slingshot >> bow & arrow

deku stick >> thief knife >> master sword

it makes since and gives us a lot more to think about(with is good since this a project).

I actually support this idea as well (Taking a few hours off developing Chiming Bells)
I've looked at the current items list and deducted the following.
Pegasus Boots -> Magic Boots -> Iron Boots

You could also do it for the following but it seems a little daft.
Spinner -> Claw/Hook/Long Shot -> Hammer
Bombs -> Bombchus -> Ball and Chain

Can we work such a system into the game with only 4 dungeons?

Here's some food for thought. In Chiming Bells, I make a formula. You need an item to enter the dungeon and you find an item in the dungeon. That means with 4 main dungeons, there's 8 items overall.

Assuming you follow this formula, you could also have 8 items at least already sorted.

 XD

I like the idea of the slingshot being in the first dungeon. But may I suggest if it be made out as Link's favorite toy? Or something more convinceing like a contest prize or a stolen item? It will fit the setting well, and give Link an early practice in aiming at targets, it would be a good start for the player(who is a thief) as well.

If were only going for the MC origanal 12 items then maybe the layout should be 3 rows 4 per block.

sword > shield > ? > ?
?  > ? > ? > ?
? > ? > ? > ?

And maybe some other special items like the magic beans?

Sword > Shield > Bombs > Lantern
Slingshot  > Boomerang > Hookshot > Pegasus Boots
Power Bracelet > Bottle > Bottle > Tradeable Item

My idea for upgrades are the following:

Deku Stick > Thief Knife > Master Sword

Slingshot > Bow

Shield > Mirror Shield

Tradeable Item > tons of random useless items > Big Goron Sword

Lantern > Magic Rod


All upgrades will be optional and from subquests, for example you can beat the game with Deku Sticks ;), that is atleast how I would do it.

Perhaps remove the Power Bracelet and add something else like the Roc's Feather that can be used and not only equipped.

Apart from that the Hookshot can be changed to the Switch Hook, or the Magnetic Gloves

When you say "magic rod", what do you have in mind of it doing? I think since it completes and  replaces the lantern, maybe, it should have control over ice and fire.

Or maybe we could say:

Lantern >> Firerod >> Magic Wand

I like the optional upgrade idea, but putting the Master Sword in the same category of the Deku Sticks seems a bit odd, especially considering the Deku Sticks have other functionality other than smacking things.

True. It can be used as a torch as seen in OOT. The wooden sword from TP would make a better choice in this case.

While were at it, we should think about where and when the the items will appear.

oh I'm mentioning the Magic Rod as in Fire Rod that's the name it appears in LTTP.. weird huh?

about the deku stick well, I would add it just for hardcore people, like you get it at the start and only use it to play around the city, yet once you are about to leave to hyrule field gannondorf tells you grab the sword in that chest, if you just leave  and go to hyrule field you will be playing  all the game with the deku stick, also the lantern can also works to complete the other function of the dekustick ;), apart from that, I don't mind if it's wooden sword or deku stick, I just mentioned dekustick because it sounded fun to kick ganon's ass with a stick.
