Basicly I think we should think out of the box, not necessarly using Items that have been used in previous games, and not necessarly using items from previous games exactly the same way. In order to make this game more interesting and more fun, and to separate it from the other zelda games.

E.g. Rocs feather... jump and jump, jump over holes and moving obsticles... great! :P Now how about jumping from one building to other building and over small ledges?

How about a magic staff esque item. That can stop and magically fix items of age, and power objects? So lets say theres a golden sun like puzzle that these power must be powered by this staff after shorting them out. Or one of the gates mechanism out of hyrule castle has been destroyed and you must fix it with this rod, inorder to go through it. In battles this rod could disable enemies... like stone statues... or power up ancient statues, that may aid you in battles and other tasks.

Just some ideas for you guys to consider. :P

Just an idea, since im not doing anything in this group. How about using the mouse? right click to use ur sword etc. Aim the bow with your mouse. Using the strengths of the pc to our advantage.

 :D

I think Link should have an overwhelming amount of items. *drool* I mean think about it, you know you love that feeling you get when you crack open that fancy looking chest and you KNOW theres a boss ass kicking item in it! I'm an extreme fan of Item-grabbing games, they make progress and work fun and worth it! I'm sure you guys feel the same. And what I mean by overwhelming is; a lot to choose from. Heres a list:

Items you use in combat

Puzzle Items

Trading Items/Traded Items

Misc items that you can eat/sell or just plain out give away

And as for the mouse idea paul had; I think we should add mouse features as well. For mini-games and attachments such as the longshot or grappling hook. It would be in the settings, to turn this feature on/off.

Also, what about giving Link the item effect in WW? Each item he uses shows up on his person?

Lets please pick up on this section.  Dungeon design cannot really go anywhere until the items are finalized.  I think we know our obvious weapons/items such as arrows, bombs and boomerang.  So lets try and make a few unique ones and figure out which dungeon each will be placed in.

Obvious weapons, huh? Like something Link HAS to have in order to kick evil butt? Well, okay I gotta few.

Since Link will be traveling through valleys of snow, and mountains made of fire, it would be a good idea to think about Link's Inventory as well. I bet he'd link a nice, warm, fire tunic when walking in a moulted volcano. Or even an Ice Suit as well even when moving through piles of snow and ice. But thats just Inventory talk. What kick ass weapon Link earns through his travels and hardships should be something useful, and usable. What I mean by that is Link should be able to use his Items on almost ANYTHING. Even on enemies. All of his Items should be used in combat a different way. I always wanted to flip a ChuChu with Pico Cane lol.

Among those Items are endless possibilities.

I agree, many items in Zelda as of late have been entirely useless (Skull Hammer excluded).  Where are Colby and Sinkin?  They're like..the only two guys on the items group.

*Hears my name, comes running.*

Sorry, been busy these past few days moving back from my dad's and trying to get another job.

Anyways, not too much coming from my head at the moment (just woke up), but something I'd like to see make a return is that Hyper Slingshot from Oracle of Seasons. Having it shoot in 3 directions added some interesting mechanics. Once I get some free time today or tomorrow I'll start compiling a list of some of the most useless items that have shown up, and see if we can think of some way to give them another purpose.

I'll try to draw up an example in a few days but til then, think like the magnetic iron boots in Twilight Princess if you need a quick thought. Of with 2D limitations. It is possible to do. I've done it.

Heres some Items I think should return from MC:

Pico Cane: Can flip anything, even enemies. also when used on certain things the changes vary from one to another. For example:

Using the cane on a ChuChu would flip it and turn it inside out into a messy puddle of goo. While on other enemies such as a Moblin, It'd just flip him and make him angry.
Minish Cap: I loved how this game went from big too small, It would be cool if the whole minish cap shrinking experience was in an over-head view. Like for example; Using the cap in the city or town would put you directly below it. To fully explore the world in minish size! Instead of a little icon floating over your head.
The Gust Jar: On top of it being a jar that can suck up anything, it makes a good vacuum cleaner. It can reach things from afar like rubies, hearts, and enemies.

Well, these are just a few ideas I had when I brainstorm. More powerful and resourceful items fall in the puzzle and weapon category.

Alrighty, here's my list of items that have only one appearance throughout the Zelda Series:

  • Step Ladder - Zelda 1
  • Cross - Zelda 2
  • Pieces of Power - Link's Awakening
  • Magnetic Gloves - Oracle of Seasons
  • Rod of Seasons - Oracle of Seasons
  • Rings - Oracle of Seasons/Oracle of Ages
  • Switch Hook - Oracle of Ages (sorta)
  • Hyoi Pear - Wind Waker
  • Hero's Charm - Wind Waker
  • Gust Jar - Minish Cap
  • Cane of Pacci - Minish Cap
  • Spinner - Twilight Princess
  • Ball and Chain - Twilight Princess
  • Sand Wand - Spirit Tracks

So that's what I see as the items not really having a counterpart in another Zelda game in some way, shape, or form. There's a little bending, but meh. I just kinda separated them because of their functionality and how they change the game. So if we wanted to throw something different in, here's a good start. Of course though, don't be afraid to throw in original ideas like King Tetiro's Gravity Boots.

Soooo, do we start classifying these objects to explain their meaning and use in the game? Where they are found, how and when to use them, and what they do in/to the 2D environment.

Personally, I like everyones item list, and should be compiled to a final list. With everyones main item ideas intact.

so far we got:

Magic Items:
Quote
Roc's Cape
Seed Shooter
Magic Mirror
Pegasus boots
Magic beans
Cross
Rings
Rod of Seasons
Rod of Ages
Gust Jar
Cane of Pacci
Hero's Charm
Sand Wand
Combat Items/Useful Items:
Quote
Iron Boots
Magnetic Gloves
Spinner
Ball and Chain
Bow
Swords
Bombs
Boomerangs
Shields
Hammers
Other:
Quote
Deku Sticks
Deku Nuts
Slingshot
Hyoi Pear
Switch Hook

We should design the items per usefullness.. for example of your magic Items, I see the Rod of Seasons, Rod of Ages useless, since they just appear in that game and we aren't messing with seasonal changes or time warps.  The Cross and Rings feel usefull too (actually I don't know in what game they appear XD I guess Zelda I and OoA/OoS respectively), Spinner might not work for this game.


Then we should see the items depending of the function, the Hookshot, magnetic gloves, and Switch Hook have the same function, moving you from A to B. So no matter which of those three we use it will be nearly the same :). Same applies for the Slingshot and the Bow,

The Hyoi Pear and the Magic Beans can work, mostly the Magic Beans, yet the Hyoi Pear is used to talk to fishes not sure how that will work in this game.


Actually I think we must define first the number of Items we are going to use. And if we are going to add Tunics and boots, and if we actually add them, we must define is they will be considered as Items or if they will have a special screen for the selection ( a la OoT).

I couldn't find the resources to make an example for the Gravity Boots. They would work like the magnetic iron boots in TP. That's all I can say really.

If I can find someone to sprite me a few sprites to show what I mean, I'd be able to explain easier

I like to keep an open mind when dealing with the Item fracture in KOT. What if some items have the same ability, they can be used differently in the 2D environment.(e.g bow and slingshot) The bow is more of a combat weapon, it pierces through the opponent killing it, while the slingshot knocks things over and stun enemies.

Every item is useful in it's own way. The environment can be effected by each item a different way. Using your items on enemies can result in different reactions as well.

As for items that have special menus like the Inventory, I think tunics and charts/maps should go there while Quest Items would have-?
