Now I need to come up with a design for Level 8. I have a few different ones ProtoLeveled. I'm not sure if I am going to use one of them or come up with something else.
The Ideas so far...
1. Demon head? 2. ET? 3. Not sure of the third one... 4. Either a zombie character or something Dr Jekyll/Mr Hyde game? 5. The last one looks familiar too but can't place it.
Haha y'know I was thinking of that too. Have him metamorph into aLttP link when he enters the ship. Me likey.
Also, I haven't had a chance to hit my head against the front of the ship but I've sketched out an idea. Hopefully I'll have something for you this week (regardless of if you'll need it, I'm intrigued to try)
There was a secondary reason for turning the enterprise into a spriteset besides the map scaling issue. Setzer's Airship has no southern movement sprites. It can only go North, East & West which limits my creation for the cutscene. I'd prefer to use his and am attempting my cutscene with the limited directions. I've been thinking about the possibilty of leaving the enterprise in game. I have "The Tomb of Kain Highwind" and a whole interaction with his ghost coded. The headstones around his level are main characters from Final Fantasy 2(IV). The Enterprise could feasibly be the way they all got to Hyrule, unless I want to code in a flock of random Chocobos somewhere...
Send me the sprites and I'll see if I can pixel up some south facing ship magic.
What about seeing Setzer's Airship flying over hyrule?
In part of the story Link finds a journal in an outpost depicting Setzer's arrival in Hyrule which I have been developing a "cutscene" for. Basically, Link finds the journal, screen fades to black, re-enters on the southern portion of Hyrule where the airship come in from off the screen. Flies over the outpost and heads west, while flying over the desert region a Gleeok (2 headed version) launches multiple fireballs at the airship where it is hit and crash lands in the desert.
Actually I never found that one to be bothersome. It's a simple enough image that I never thought twice. Though I did react to the Enterprise better simply because of a less complicated colour scheme haha. I'm not judging, I like the story behind all this. I was just bored, on my lunch break, and wanted to see what I could come up to see if I could appease my pixel-ego.
Out of boredom I made a fanart mockup esque type dealy of the ship casino room in a more Zelda 1 form. I like spriting so it's fun to do once in a while.

I can't particularly make sense of it. I've noticed it comes up for quite a few things, but this is so far the only one that gave me the sads lol
