Does this dungeon end!? - Romhack for The Legend of Zelda (NES)

[@arnpoly]

I’m glad you had a good time playing this! More to come!

[@AndyGoth111]

Do you think you will be able to fix whatever's going on with the DPCM channel? All the sampled audio is getting cut off

[@arnpoly]

@@AndyGoth111 That doesn’t happen in the game, just in this video for some reason. I noticed that too

[@DrewPicklesTheDark]

@@arnpoly This reminds me of something I started work on but never finished, that being a "mega-dungeon" (1, or I guess 2, dungeon(s) taking up the entire map) hack, so this is really cool to see and I look forward to playing it later today. By "more to come" do you mean updates to this? Or a new project?

[@arnpoly]

@@DrewPicklesTheDark I mean updates to Ancient Dungeon. There are bug fixes and additional features I would like to implement.

[@DrewPicklesTheDark]

@@arnpoly Awesome. Looking forward to it!

[@metallicoustic6733]

Y'know, I was just wondering the other day what the boy from Roseanne was up to. Playing rom hacks on KZbin apparently, good for you, my dude! EDIT: In all seriousness, great video! I dig your style, LackAttack!

[@artstrutzenberg7197]

This would make for an interesting segment for AGDQ---4 way race....especially if each runner had a different initial seed....

[@banginsolox]

I just recently found the z1m1 (Zelda 1 - Metroid 1) randomizer by Metalmachine and have been binge watching people playing it. I would LOVE to see you do this game one day.

[@darrylbilbao3216]

Saw other people do this playthrough. Was so happy to see you actually did one, too! Great work! Always fun to watch

[@Matthew6418]

255 rooms equals the original nes zelda rupee limit due to hexadecimal. Love the little touch on that.

[@floorit321]

That was pretty entertaining to watch. I wonder how much replay value there is in something like this.

[@AvangionQ]

So, the biggest change I'd make to this is no fairies as room rewards ... they look weird just sitting there in the corner 🧚

[@TruSpectrez]

Pretty awesome. A select screen on the beginning would be cool. A "normal" progression and "advanced" progression modes.

[@LackAttack]

100% agree. This is version 1.0, so we are providing feedback and hope we can get some options in the future!

[@Novastar.SaberCombat]

Early wand and shield really helped! 🙂 Sure, Lack lost the shield pretty quickly, but he's WAY skilled enough to challenge the WRobes without it.

[@chrisliu5460]

43:39 wow this shot feels amazing

[@cjeelde]

29:04 - that shield thief :(

[@corbenya]

Christmas eve is a year of no Zelda. Had to work on school. I've missed playing Lack, but proud to say we got a 4.0 in web 1 and a 3.5 in GDES! Big accomplishment , n just wanted to share.

[@LackAttack]

Congrats on your studies! Hope you are able to get some R&R as a treat

Lack: (allows Like Like to eat his shield) Game: So you have chosen ... death.

[@Kurachi84]

Not my kinda game to play, but watching a pro do it, is really cool! And yeah, some options like faster enemy progress and others would make it even more interesting! I hope Lack is gonna do some randomizers again, too, cuz i love using my brains even while watching others :D I'll be watching you more often again here, cuz i've been away from your channel for a while, guess i can be burned out, and return after a while.

[@StneCldKilla]

This is verrrry cool and looks fun. Had fun watching thanks man! GG

[@attackofthetheeyecreatures3472]

The Binding of Link. This is a brilliant romhack! I'm surprised it wasn't done sooner,

[@LackAttack]

same honestly

[@AvangionQ]

28:18 Boomerang is an investment: for picking up rupees you can't reach ♦

[@jonmayer]

GG. First time I saw this mod I wanted to see you play it.

[@eph_kni]

So Cool! I'm glad i found your channel. I subbed and I'll try to catch your next stream. However, maybe it's my audio-nerd talking but for future videos/streams, it would be great if you had a better microphone set up. The flanging on your voice (likely due to proximity to your desk or the pickup pattern of the microphone) can be fatiguing on the ears, especially over long periods of time.

[@LackAttack]

Audio is the toughest thing to get right. Thanks for the feedback. I've had this mic (blue yeti) for 7 years. If you'd like to help improve the setup, join the discord and say hello!

[@michaelwhipple7605]

9:25 Camouflage Moblin? That's really cool.

[@jamesproveaux8053]

Super cool! Really enjoyed watching you play through. Will try out for myself.

[@LackAttack]

Yeah I believe there's a new patch now as well for some QoL things

[@JustinMcGinleyRealtor]

This was a really fun romhack. I need to play this.

[@getgooddad]

This is epic. Found it through you. Subscribed. Thank you.

[@briankarcher8338]

Fun hack. Had this released back in the day it would be a classic.

[@RavenCap0807]

Would love to play this on actual NES hardware!! Super sweet!!

[@on3trackmind]

Shops should be choices between two items, should have rooms that give/take money, difficulty should scale faster, some rogue-lite mechanics would be great, fairy rooms, a difference between what is likely to appear if you go left, right, up, down etc

[@thrjfi5360]

Due to the ability to only end at 255 that's the last level. I thought it was going to go into the thousands when I beat it last month good luck my final score was 1 hour 41 minutes it times it on the final screen

[@traviswatson6527]

Looks fun. Is this the only ROM hack you have on the channel? Looked and couldn't find playing anything else.

[@LackAttack]

The only Zelda 1 romhack, yes

[@Devolutionator]

Reminds me of the Varia Randomizer for Super Metroid, which I love.

[@AintNobodyAtAll]

If you dig this, check out Infinite Hyrule and Fred Coughlin's Zelda 1 Randomizer. They will totally randomize the overworld and the dungeons. Run your rom through Z1R first, then Infinite Hyrule, and you have a whole new quest.

[@ClassicPass_]

GG Arnpoly!

[@dirtonknees2]

Zelda GOAT. Fun video dude!

[@MidKnightQ77]

You're getting a lot of hearts. I've seen a couple playthroughs where hearts were few and far between.

[@LackAttack]

Yeah, it's all random. I've had runs with few hearts as well

[@metroidjones122]

Very cool, Lack. Makes me want to play it.

[@MadHatterWill86]

Great gameplay! Subscribed !!

[@LackAttack]

Welcome aboard!

[@pokepress]

I'd be curious to know how the game handles enemy sets, since in the normal game each dungeon is assigned a specific set of enemies.

[@siberwolf33]

52:39. There's a heart container for one frame... Strange.

[@happyvalley286]

this would be great if the overworld was included

[@Wannagobackto1980]

Ok I am dumb when it comes to loading a rom hack onto anything. Can somebody walk me through this? I would appreciate it. Thanks.

[@uknighted213]

Imagine this was the last dungeon in the original game, and if you die you lose all progress 😂

[@plasmac9]

Room 184 was the toughest room. A testament to you combat skills in this game for sure.

[@LackAttack]

scary room!

[@broncosbreaks]

It was a little underwhelming at the end. It would be cool if the second quest had loads of darknuts and wizrobes on the same screen.

[@LackAttack]

Second quest steps it up for sure, will be highlighted in a future video

[@AdBlock-User]

29:03 You lost the Magical Shield 😞

[@Damariobros]

Is it possible to get all items and max health? Also can you get your shield back if you lose it?

[@LackAttack]

I'm not sure. This is the 1.1 version, there is now a 3.0 version with a lot more features. I haven't been able to collect everything yet in one run

[@Damariobros]

@@LackAttack Have you tried runs where you go up whenever possible? I wonder if that'll increase the chances for old men.

[@Goldnfoxx]

So, if room changes are randomized, does it even matter which direction you go? Seems like a straight line would be essentially the same thing unless I'm missing something?

[@LackAttack]

Yeah, you want to just go up and down mostly since they take less time to transition than left/right.

[@EmeraldCoastCosplay]

I can't get the patch to work. I've patched the rom, but every time I start the dungeon, the game crashes. I've tried multiple roms. Is there a particular rom version I need to use?

[@LackAttack]

According to the readme, you need PRG1 version.

[@AndyGoth111]

Eager to see second quest

[@CharlieSoze]

That was great! Is the Magical Sword not in it tho?

[@LackAttack]

It can show up, not every run is guaranteed to have it!

[@coozecontrol9253]

So I have the file is there a special emulator or something to download to play it, cause I tried a few and they dont work.

[@LackAttack]

Have to have the ROM, it's outlined on romhacking.net. there are instructions as well for how to patch a ROM

[@Jadamhodges]

Wow… just stand back and snipe the enemies… I mean come on man!😂

[@klondike460]

What emulator was used?

[@vegetin01]

Is there a leaderboard for this yet??

[@hannes8835]

I admire the dedication but is it worth it? Have you gone outside and ride a sportsbike? Explored the world? Climb a mountain with a nice fun girl? I mean on your death bed, will you look at your 1 hr 7 min record and not hate you for having wasted your younger years doing it?

[@attackofthetheeyecreatures3472]

Do you think everything people record of themselves is their entire life? And do you judge people based on where they are at the moment? Why aren't you paying attention to the world we live in, taking care of our planet, and enjoying nature instead of making comments on KZbin?
