Hello! I'm kind of new to this forum, and, well, to be honest, I've been checking ZFGC out kind of often without having the thought of actually registering, since I'm most interested in the very games posted here.
Ah, well. This time, I had no choice but to register, as I've decided to maybe start a project of my own. A game? Nope, sorry. It's a flash movie. A parody, to be precise. It's spoofing the game "The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures", where, as many of us know, Link pulls a magic sword and gets his body split in four exact copies of himself.
In the original Four Swords, we found no difference at all between the four of 'em (except for the colours of their clothes). They were exact clones, and a parody with four identical characters? No way! That's out of the question!
But then, on this very great day, a Gamecube-version of the game was released by the name of Four Swords Adventures, and I fell in love. The action, the puzzles, the graphics... All in up to four players! And, in difference to Four Swords, the four Links were a little different from each other; they're voices.
It hit me. Why would four clones have different vocal cords? I thought that perhaps changes could be, but what about if every one of the Links would change in not just pieces inside of their throat, but the entire body!
So, yeah! Here we have it! My artwork for the movie(s)!
Link to a bigger, and much better quality, image: http://img303.imageshack.us/img303/6868/fourswordslinksyq5.jpgI based their heights on their tone of voice; the lower the voice, the taller the character!
LinkBeing the unfortunate guy who got tricked by a crazy shade-version of himself (artwork coming soon) to pull the Four Sword, Link is now left with three odd companions in a quest to save princess Zelda and Hyrule from Ganon, the evil piggy (artwork coming soon as well) and Vaati (him too).
Out of the four heroes, Link is the quiet and neutral guy, but even though the leader of them all. One of the two main characters.
RedRed is the cowardy version of Link. Often used by Blue, as he is small, weak and easy to throw. Great to press buttons with, especially if they're hard to reach. Always hiding behind Purple.
BlueAt first, Blue seems like the typical indifferent and bitter person. But later on, he finds out about the dark secret of the Four Sword. That secret says that when the Four Sword has fulfilled it's mission, Red, Blue and Purple will be sent back into the seal forever. He secretly works against Link, to kill him and perhaps his fellahs, and take his place as the hero of Hyrule.
Short said, Blue is the evil clone.
PurpleBrave, strong and dumb, but his heart might be just as big as his muscles. He always takes on the bad guys and offers himself whenever there's a problem. He's truly the brave guy.
Well, I'm not quite sure if this is an idea to use. Hard to tell. I quite like it, and it's the best Zelda-parody I can come up with. What do you guys think? Should I make this?
Thanks!
