Hi! I'm willing to take requests if anyone wants to see what their game (or just any specific game, but probably your game) looks like.

Wowzers.
I would request my own LINK II but compared to these vast and colorful worlds it's just a grain of sand.

Thank you for the wonderful contribution!

Fred 2 I recall having a massive overworld.

A lot of these are really beautiful and especially interesting since it's so unlikely that anybody ever saw how their world looked as a whole.

Edit: Would you be willing to post the source anywhere? I've messed around with Python and ZZT in the past and it might also be interesting to see something that lets you exempt boards for games that are more split into sections (Deceiving Guidance comes to mind here).

Apologies for the old post you may have just read.

Cool stuff! I was going to say wartorn might be cool, but thinking back, it's mostly connected by passages. How about flimsy's version of town of zzt?

Hi guys,

I didn't get a chance to work on these before leaving town for the holidays. I'll make some maps for the requested games no problem and will work on getting the Python script in a state that would make sense to someone else— I don't have much experience with Python, though, so it'll probably be pretty gross :P

Some of these games I haven't played and look pretty interesting.

Thanks everyone! Sorry this took ages to get back to— life has been kind of crazy recently and now it looks like we're going to have to move (but for happy reasons) in the next month and a half or so.

Anyway, requests:

Are you talking about Link's Adventure II? That's the closest thing I can find in the archive. If not, give me a link so I can check it out!

Not seeing this in the archive either, a little help?

The game looks pretty cool! Unfortunately since you're using passages to connect between boards my script can't auto-generate a map out of it.

One more thing: DrDos, I could put the source code I wrote online, but unfortunately it won't work without some code that Adam Parrish wrote to handle the zztlib2/ctypes stuff and I'm not sure if he wants to release it. If he ever releases pyzzt or whatever it'd be called, then I'll consider releasing this too. Sorry!

Oh yeah, that's cool.

Janson's Island is a 404, though.

Whoops! Fixed. It doesn't have quite as big of an "overworld" though...
