I dunno, the fact it took entire areas from PotS or whatever the name was takes away from the originality from the game.

Why is that?
I got permission to use those areas with .TakaM's blessing.
I just make good use of the resources that we're no longer used.
It's still more original than the ones that only use Nintendo's tilesets and sprites, that aren't even edited etc.
I respect your point of view, but I just can't understand why you think that.

The demo shows a lot of good work, and that new screenshot with the Hookshot looks VERY promising. I'll keep my eye on this. =D

I'm not saying you didn't. Everyone can use those sprites now I believe.

Yeah, but they are not your design.

Yes, that's true. But everything you make yourself can also be more original. Which is pretty much the idea behind fangaming.

It could be just the idea that I hate recycling sprites and tiles from other games. Even when I start I new game I usually start from scratch and such.

its not a big deal kleaver, even if all fangames use the areas I doubt even one of them would get finished

Haha, true that  ;D
But I find the fangaming on itself a hobby and something to put creativity in. Who cares if I finish it? After I partially made a game I usually learned so much.  :)

... you know what? I'll reveal this one secret to you.
My first priority is to finish this game. Whether I like it or not, I'm gonna finish it.
I'm so sick of unfinished fangames!
Making this game is a hobby for me too, but I'm planning on finishing it, not to learn from it.
So yeah, some may think my motives are wrong, but if that gets first real Zelda fangame done, I don't see anything wrong with that.
"Who cares if I finish it?"
... Pretty much everyone here, I'd say. It's like a painting, there is nothing joyful in a unfinished painting.
What is the point of making games, if you make unfinished games, so you can make more unfinished games? Why not make one good and finished game?
So... What I'm trying to say is, I take every help I can get to finish CoG.
What I use is still creative, even if someone else uses the same stuff.

Damn straight, Tommy Pel. Don't take that !@#$%, finish this fan game and finish it good!

I hope to see this fan game completed one day. ZFGC really needs something to boast about.

I know exactly what you mean. So many people stop their games midway through, it's depressing. It's good that you've learned something, but actually finishing the game feels really good; a true sense of accomplishment that motivates you to make another game. (Also, you might build a fanbase, which will serve as more motivation.)

I really hope you finish this project. People that finish what they start are cool. =p

Thanks. Seriously, words like that motivate me the most.
And to the ones who can't get the demo to work:
I promise I'll do everything I can to make part 1 playable for everyone, and bug-free!

Some of you might think why I haven't posted any progress in some time now.
Well, I just feel overworked at the moment, school, life, problems etc.
I've lost my motivation to continue on this...
BUT no worries, I don't mean I'm quitting this! By no means!
I mean, that at the moment, I need time for other things.
Working alone in a project this big chews the last of me, and I seriously need a break.
This is NOT the last of CoG... You'll see.

Tom... wow.
I can't believe... it's just...
wow.
The scenery is absolutely breathtaking... If the lines in the tiling's were gone, it'd be absolutely-breathtakingly amazing. For me, Scenery and tiling is what most of the magic in a game is about, and this just blew me away.
The gameplay was real nice as well, and it's a shame you've lost interest... some people just need a little more than personal interest, because making a game can sometimes now be a lot of fun. I hope you do continue this.
So far all your effort has been shown, and it's amazing.
Good Job.

Thanks man. Glad to hear you like it so far.
Today, I just had an urgent need to finish the boat's new particle system with Goodnight's help :P
(Couldn't leave it alone)

Needs some details and adjustments, but it's pretty much done now.
