One peaceful day in Hyrule, A surge of natural disasters goes through and blocks off the town from all of the outside land, while rips in reality have been created in remote parts of Hyrule. These rips are dangerous as anyone coming too close is sucked right in and vapourised, and these become places in need of sealing. A boy named Link living on his farm, is just close enough not to be blocked off by all the disasters. Little does he know that a fairy, named Star, is about to become his guide in a dangerous adventure to save hyrule. After aquiring weapons from a local dojo, Star leads him to the Shrine of Elements, where he finds the rod of elements, and as he finds all the Elemental Gems, gives him control over the elements, allowing him to seal these rips. But his challenge is much harder, as he finds these rips are not just holes...
The new name for Cloud of Darkness is now Rod of Elements, the old name not having any storyline. The game will have you slashing and puzzle-solving your way through 11 dungeons, the first four all have the Element Gems sealed inside them. Hyrule is the main land, and will have you returning now and then to reopen old areas to find new ones. There is more than one land (not telling how many) but using the rod of elements, changing something in one land, such as melting an iceberg or cooling some lava will have an effect on another - good or bad. luckily, you can counteract these so you can return to other areas. There are more special dungeon items, later after the first four dungeons, the next three dungeons are the most secret part of the game, you will hear almost nothing of this chapter.
EDIT 01/02/07
A few new functions added, mainly graphics, 1 weather effect, rain, using particles. the rain DOES hit the ground and DOES make splashes like in The Shadowgazer, but instead of a hundered objects slowing down the speed it's particles, though not as much difference. A light engine & clock engine also added, both working together with the lamp to create day/night transition and light rings around link and lamps at night, THE LIGHT ENGINE IS FINISHED. the clock however, needs a MC style back to it and MC style font. a ocarina engine has been started, although needs finishing, and instead of finishing it, i've been lazy and have been playing age of mythology instead. That's all for now (or is it? :P)
EDIT 24/01/07:
I have recently changed the FPS from 25 to 50, giving that there were some problems with shadow and grass overlays not being underneath link while rolling. this has been fixed.
I do need a logo for the game, and an icon, so if you want, check out this topic and it as what i want listed there.

Questions, comments, post here.
-
It looks better than anything I could do, but of course I can't do much.
-
Thanks. ;D I'm working on fire seeds at the moment. I'll release another demo sometime next month.
-
I think 64digits is a better file hoster. Maybe you can use that.
-
Could you give me a link? ???
-
it just needs alot of work alot work the move ment is realy realy bad dude you shouldt work on that in the first place
-
The movement code is so buggy I don't even know where to begin to offer advice or suggestions... Perhaps start it from scratch? Use someone else's?!
But you've already got more than a lot of the projects here, so good work. Just needs some fine-tuning before you show it again, perhaps?
-
Could you give me a link? ???
Sure
www.64digits.com
-
No Screens means no Download for me.
-
Yes, please post screenshots ASAP...or I will move this to Pre Production.
-
there are screens in the attatchments section, at the bottom of the topic. Also I'll work on the movement and add diagonals to it.
-
I finished diagonals, and the screen moves with the hurricane spin now too. ;D also you don't need to release a button before pressing another to move.
-
Attachments dont work. Just hotlink them. Use www.photobucket.com or something if you do not have a host.
-
there. the screenshots should be fixed.
-
the new movement is better but it stil needs work ( also the animation) it just doesnt feel right
-
yeah i agree it's a lot better but there are no diagonal sprites like in lttp. I'll keep working on it though.
-
thats not the problem... did you use the full animation
if yes... its going to fast(link is also walking to fast)
if no... use the full animation
-
good demo but when i press shift to bring up the sub-menu then shift again to take it away the menu just stays on the screen.
-
I'll check up on it but it was working fine before.
-
The topic has been updated.
-
demo does not have enough content to qualify as a work in progress, moved.
