This is a hack of Zelda 2 that was made during the Summer of 2019. It’s an ASM hack that adds a second player named Lonk. Lonk is an almost perfect clone of Link and fully compatible with everything in the game. He is the main feature of this hack but there are some more features added as well.

Some, but not all, enemies have been reprogrammed to let them target Lonk. Both players share HP and levels, but despite this the game is quite a bit easier with two players.

There is a difficulty selection based on which file you play on. File 1 is normal/unchanged. File 2 is Easy Mode, which halves enemy damage. File 3 is Hard Mode, which doubles enemy damage.

This is version 1.1, which fixes a ton of bugs from the original unreleased version. It also adds Lonk on the overworld. You can’t control him, but he follows Link around.
