The Legend of Zelda - Under Burning Stars (Tentative Title)

About the game
The goal of the game is to be a fun mix of my two favourite games: Diablo and Zelda
As such one improves his power by gaining Status Points, Talent Points and new Items that make one stronger.
That would be a typical heck and slash game, but now Zelda comes in. First of all a zeldaish graphics style is used,
adding to that one will find the typical zelda puzzles and sub quests all around the world.

Screenshot packs


What about a story?
To be honest - there is none yet, same with a real name.

The technical side
The game itself is written in C#, with the code all-in-all ranging around 120k lines.
I've written along the way my own MapEditor, ItemMaker tool and NpcMaker tool.
It's fully object oriented and abstracts away platform or api dependent calls.

And a demo?
See post below.

The team behind the game
Just me so far; if you want to help me out with maping/sprite creation/story writing - please send me a PM. :D

\o °_° \o/ *_* o/
C+C and questions now please! ;]

That's the bad weather and/or late time of the day. *grins* (I have a dynamic weather system! :o)

Thanks all! I may release a first public demo when I get some more content done. \o/
My next todos are to implement a few more talents, create some more items
and to finish the first map and dungeon. Still lots of work ahead!  XD

Zack, it's UBS, not USB, I'm afraid. And, uh, yeah, Tick, this game looks fantastic, seriously. And C#? Mm, a real programming language for once. Well, good luck with your game!

Cheers, another update! I'd like to introduce a new future some of you may know
from Diablo2:
The Cube

The cube has two main uses:
1) Transform items into other items using specific formulas/recipes.
2) Turn all items in the cube into rubees.



(sorry for the double posts!)

Tick, you're just amazing! Firstly, by using C# you are ensuring programming quality in your game, and secondly mixing Zelda with a Diablo gameplay is just pure genius! I loved the Diablo series (especially the second one with its expansion; wonder if Blizzard will ever release a third installment?), and this is just looking awesome. I was wondering something though, is it possible that you port this to work on the Mono framework? By doing that, you would ensure cross-platform compatibility for your game. Meh just an idea though.

I can perfectly see how the cube would work on a Zelda game, haha I remember having to get Willy's (was that his name?) leg to get to the secret cow level.

Keep up the good work!

Thank you AleX! :)
Porting it to Mono should be quite possible! Only problem is that I currently don't have Linux / Mono.
I may get it and try to port it over when I get my new PC. (next year maybe:p)

It's going all fine here on my side with the game.
I keep implementing new features and creating more content. \o/

More screenshots to come soon! XD

You had me at Diablo + Zelda. I love the diablo series. The screenshots look awesome, i can't wait until a demo, if you decide to release one.

W00t, the Horadric Cube, that's my favorite item, it's cube shaped, you can't go wrong.

Dude, this looks !@#$% awesome. The fact that you're making this using a REAL programming language is enough to make me interested. I'm also digging the Diablo-Zelda gameplay idea. Reminds me vaugley of the Final Fantasy Tactics-Zelda gameplay crossover someone was once working on. I'll be watching this.

Good luck.
