The Legend of Zelda: The Shadow's Fall

Hack of The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past

Description:

The Legend of Zelda: The Shadow’s Fall By Jared_Brian_ 01/18/23 - 08/12/23 V2.0

Description: The Legend of Zelda: The Shadow’s Fall is a short 2-4 hour long hack that was originally made over the course of 18 hours as part of a casual challenge between Letterbomb, Zarby89, Scawful, and Jared_Brian_. Each had to design the entirety of the overworld, dungeons, story, ASM, and everything else in between with the 18-hour time limit, only allowing extra time for testing and bug fixing.

This is the follow-up to that original version featuring a ton of bug fixes and new content. The 3 dungeons, overworld, and general item progression are mostly the same but you will find a few changes here and there. The difficulty has been rebalanced making the game much more forgiving. A new music track, a custom title screen, credits, and new story content have been added. Most importantly of all a new end sequence has been added as well as a completely new secret ending to find.

The download .zip file contains both the V2.0 patch and the original V1.0 patch.

Original description:

The Legend of Zelda: The Shadow’s Fall V1.0 By Jared_Brian_ 01/18/23 - 02/27/23

Description: The Legend of Zelda: The Shadow’s Fall is a short 2-4 hour long hack that was made over the course of 18 hours as part of a casual challenge between Letterbomb, Zarby89, Scawful, and Jared_Brian_. Each had to design the entirety of the overworld, dungeons, story, ASM, and everything else in between with the 18-hour time limit, only allowing extra time for testing and bug fixing. That being said, a V2.0 which will include a custom title screen, a few bug fixes, a few more palette changes, additional story content, and a proper end sequence will eventually be released. However, this version is fully playable and features 3 full dungeons, additional caves/houses, 16 overworld areas, custom palettes, and some custom ASM events.

The patch needs to be applied on ALttP (US), with no header. You need a BPS patcher to patch the ROM.

Fun Hack, Nice Colors

Reviewed By: Mylocke on 29 May 2023

I Love the Colors of the world in this hack. Difficulty was a good challenge and the bosses were fun to fight so early in the game. Resource economy was a bit tight but Dungeons and world were fun to navigate.

Version 1.0 Recommended - Yes
