a lot of my design decisions boil down to how can i make Zelda1 feel like a shitty PC game

Respectfully, Team Cherry. 3 Dudes in AN house is not a "snail village"

I Dont think people know how much team cherries cruelty to you is part of their authorial vision. keep seeing comments like "they changed this minor thing in the patch but are ignoring the CORE ISSUES" dawg they hate you. they love hating you & pissing you off, its not going away

i dont see that, armadillos arent gonna bring the gang together. they are an activity for one person to toil over while i build the house and another digs underground.

tip for tas guys. if you kill an enemy on the first frame rule i think they will always drop something (untested)

Robin Poe @robinpoedev.bsky.social · 15d

ok these are what i mean.

Robin Poe @robinpoedev.bsky.social · 15d

those are good, but i mean "complete the game without Varia suit" and have an equivalent for every upgrade that can be skipped. space jump, highjump boots, shinespark boots. etc etc.

achievements, is their best form, should just exist to provide an excuse/direction for eager players who want more from the game. if i was making achievements for Super Metroid for example, id make achievements for skipping items major upgrades, just to show that it was possible.
