I can't remember which one I bought first. But I remember buying the second one right after finishing the first one 😀

When I think that initially three games were planned! 😮 (one game for each piece of the Triforce)

Happy 25th anniversary to Oracle of Ages/Seasons! ⌛️ 🍃 🎊

Two of my favorite Zelda ❤️

The culmination of 2D Zelda with challenging puzzles, interconnections between dimensions, and the games themselves!

Going from Link's Awakening to just starting Oracle of Seasons I can immediately feel how much more concise Link's Awakening is in its overworld and dungeon layout. Every section of the game has a purpose whereas with Oracle of Seasons I get the sense that a lot of the sections of the map are just for setdressing or to make the trek longer. It could be that the Oracle games were developed with Ocarina of Time as inspiration, so maybe the devs thought big empty spaces = epic. Maybe I'm just not far enough in the game to have realized that each section does indeed have a purpose. No spoilers, please!! ​:pra:​

The rooms in the dungeons are a lot bigger and the camera can scroll, but with not a lot filling these rooms up. Like they'll have like 5 enemies in a room spread out and I feel like the same thing could have been accomplished by simply making the room smaller and positioning the enemies closer together.

More study sketches! This time I referenced the work of Yusuke Nakano, lead artist on the Zelda Oracle games on GBC, and Ocarina of Time on N64. I leaned more towards adapting the Oracle designs into my own style, while for Ocarina of Time I followed the designs more closely for practice.

I used to do this sort of thing a lot when I was younger - it's nice getting back to drawing just for myself again <3

For #VGMWednesday this week I have Maple the Witch's Theme from the Oracle games. In the game on random map screens Maple will appear flying low on her broom, and if you get in her path you'll both drop a bunch of items. Then it's a scramble to see who can pick up all of the valuable ones first!

I don't know why she prefers to pick up bombs over rupees. You can buy bombs with the rupees girl!

The final boss in The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages is honestly pretty difficult. Having been years, Older Bro has no idea how to fight it at all. This should be fun... #GameBoy #Nintendo #Capcom #Zelda #OracleOfAges #Nayru #gaming #SaturdayGaming #TBGN

The harp now lets you freely travel in time in The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages. But one place has a "magic barrier", so you can't just time travel to the dungeon. Lame... #GameBoy #Nintendo #Capcom #Zelda #OracleOfAges #Nayru #gaming #SundayGaming #TBGN
