Well, I can give several reasons why I am doing this, but I will only give 3:
-I could improve my coding
-People could have a GB source to use (along with credit)
-A new GB era to arise ;)
But if you really think about this, this would be enjoyable and helpful, so hopefully this will rise the way I hope it should. This is made in Game Maker 7.

ya that tll be cool but do you need pro edition?
-
Requires Pro, cause of alpha's and pro functions, such as draw_sprite_ext()

A GB era rising now would be worse than a second holocost from a Jews view.

Yeah... GB sprites suck. They only looked that way because of the GB's lack of graphics power and screen size.
-
yup. But now, how can people use these things? I'd rather see BS Zelda GFX than GB GFX. But this engine might still be interesting.
-
Honestly I'm not so fussed with the use of GB graphics, even if it was awhile ago. Also GB sprites seemed to have lack of animation, not many frames per action but the simplicity makes it easier to work with. But then again GB graphics can be quite an eyesore to those who have already moved on and don't want to look back.
But of course some old games back from that era are being remade w/better graphics of course, so I guess you could always 'upgrade' the graphics yourselves ;).
Looks good, keep it up.

Testing....I will report any bugs
-
The hole jumping room is too hard. I think you should decrease the hole size so it's easier to jump simple holes.
-
this is pretty cool
however jumping is good, landing isnt
you fall down too easily
i died so many times trying to get a feel for where to stand :P
you should make more though - GB stuff is easily available
-
i love this engine!! it's great. I love the gb graphics.. "keep it simple stupid" creating custom sprites is really easy.. and with a engine like this us fan/independent game developers can focus on making the story and dungeons. i love this :]
the biggest annoyance is that jumping room.. It was very hard and i lost all my hearts.. you maybe should add the saving and game over system soon.. i didnt like how the stairs were.. i dont think that was in gb.. but it i didnt like moving that slow.. and then when walking up i started going slow before i hit the stairs.. a bug or glitch which i dont consider it being either because nothings wrong with the code you just havent scripted the restriction... i was able to swing the sword while mid air!! but anyways thank you so much to this addition to the comunity!! i really respect this

the stairs are supposed to be like that, haven't played the gb games? and your supposed to be able to swing your sword in the air
-
yeah i did play the gb but i dont remember the stairs.. but very good engine!!
-
With some code edits, one could make a shweet rpg with this! :3
-
Well, here's build 2. Heres whats happens here:
-I fixed a couple of bugs, especially the ones where Link would be frozen.
-I added the bombs (Link's Awakening Style) & you van pick them up if you press the button witht he bombs equipped. You can only toss them if you press the button witht he bombs equipped (I'll try to fix this because in all the GB games, no matter what button you pressed (A or B) if you were carrying a bomb, Link would throw it.
-Added Treasure Chests
I know its a small update, but I'm working on one of my own games along with this, so you know, gotta improvise ;). BTW, I changed around the hole-jumping room :).

Ok I tried Build No. 2, and noticed one thing: You can't open the chests while having the feather equipped on "Z." Other than that, looks great keep it up!
