[ALTTP GBA] Save corruption glitch

one of those weird consequences of going to the wrong screen using the exploration glitch

[@dumpmuch]

I actually found this out by accident during my actual quest at 80%. Biggest regret of my life lmao. I was like “wtf, its permanent? How is that even possible” And I have to restart my whole save and do everything again. I was just enjoying my adventure

how did u set that up in ganons

out of bounds glitch, use mirror while jumping off a ledge. you can also do it in hyrule castle at the very beginning with the save/restart method but you have to go out of your way a bit to get there (as its on the other opposite corner of the internal room grid.)

@@blobby2814 if done from the start of the game you unlock a weird glitched overworld state where it still thinks you're in the castle (until you complete it) but because you have all the items unlocked (inc ocarina and several glitched weapon upgrades) you can go anywhere and the thunder and rain effect will follow you around. Its most practical application that I've found so far is that it forces unlocking hurricane spin in 4swords.

@@blobby2814 Now that you mention it, yeah you could probably get into palace of the 4 sword without even touching the 4 swords gamemode. You'd just wanna perform that glitch, start a new game of alttp then beat as normal on that same save slot afterwards.
