Legend of Zelda: Lost Isle

Oh don't get me wrong Wolfie (and Ratty), I am not telling Ratty to stop posting here. I just felt like he should concentrate on real issues in the game if he wants to help us as game creators, but seems that some issues were caused by ZC and that's not Ratty's nor our fault.

Anyways, hopefully Ratty will find his way through the game. Would be very happy to see if his opinion on the game changes as he gets further. :)


Also, Wolfie, you really should do something about the look of this page. The colors are god-awful if you haven't noticed... Is your intention to drive possible Lost isle players away by hurting their eyes with these awful colors? O__o

Legend of Zelda: Lost Isle

Ratty, I always welcome constructive criticism with open arms and I'm sure Wolfie does too. However, your comments aren't constructive. It seems to me you're just slamming the quest for the sake of doing so and making things up (like the color issue). For example, what does the game's currency have anything to do with the quality of the game? (There's no money in the game for the simple fact that everyone on the Isle is dead. Also, it is Lost Isle, not Hyrule). I appreciate you trying to play the quest and trying to find things to improve, but so far you haven't really come up with anything that can be taken seriously.

Lost Isle is more like the old Zelda games instead of the new games that hold your hand and are ridiculously easy. We wanted to make a game that is for people who can appreciate a good challenge, so yes, the game is challenging, and it is not for people who want to have their hands held the entire time. We wanted Lost isle to have a mysterious feel to it, not just throw everything at the player's face at once.

A bit more about the game's difficulty - I have no idea why certain people are having a lot of trouble with this game. In Lost Isle you just have to pay attention and try out stuff. It may seem cryptic to some that are not used to the older Zelda games, but the stuff in the game really isn't hard to figure out. See an odd statue? Well that should ring your alarm bells to try some items on it. "Hmm, wonder if my sword works on this... no... how about bombs? No, weird... hey I have arrows too, oh yes that worked!" And if the combat is too challenging, learn how the enemies/traps behave. And sometimes it's not a bad idea to go looking for heart container pieces to make your heart count raise.

Also, I cannot believe how people miss the obvious clue in the beginning of the game when the crab takes your sword away and goes to the right. Still some people wander off to the left and complain they can't find the sword. I just don't know what to say about that... >__<



Travio, I'm glad you're enjoying the game as you proceed and I am interested to hear the things that frustrated you the most in the game but also the things that were done well in your opinion. (Also, who is that guy in your avatar, seems so familiar to me, hmm....?)

Legend of Zelda: Lost Isle

Ratty, Lost Isle is definitely not everyone's cup of tea. It has a very dark mood and is very Metroid-like.

However, I'm always disappointed to read comments such as yours. Are you one of those players who want to have their hand held trough the whole game? Also, there is story in the game, you just have to, like, play for a while. I understand you'd like the game to start off with some clear objective and some nice cutscenes, but that would ruin the mystery of Lost Isle...

The sequel will be quite different so you could always check it out when it comes out one of these years (I'm slow). :D

Legend of Zelda: Lost Isle

I have been talking with Wolfie privately and even though she won't undo the changes she did without my consent, at least she promised (for what it's worth) not to touch the quest anymore. Since I'm too tired to fight about this matter anymore, I accept this deal we have made and will now concentrate all my efforts on the sequel of this game, Lost Isle 2.

Even though I strongly dislike the changes she made to this latest quest file here, it does fix a couple of critical bugs. So if you're playing Lost Isle with ZC version 2.5, you should definitely download the file on this site. However, if you're only starting the quest, I suggest (sorry Wolfie) you download the Lost Isle player and the game file here http://koti.welho.com/pranta18/index.htm

Whichever version you end up playing, enjoy!

Legend of Zelda: Lost Isle

Even though I do appreciate the support here, I'm not disappointed by the fact that she didn't give credit to me. What disappoints me and sickens me is the fact that she made changes to the quest that didn't get my approval. She changed areas that I made, and when I told her it is not okay, she ran here and released her own version of the quest, which is very wrong.

Anyways, I am sure she realizes that she's done wrong here, now we'll just have to see how she reacts. I do not want to waste any energy fighting with her. If she un-does the changes she made to the quest, all will be forgiven and forgotten (we all do mistakes). Or at the very least, some kind of an apology would be something...

Legend of Zelda: Lost Isle

Hello everyone. I am the co-creator of this quest and actually I am the one who did most of this game (she was more of an advisro than a game creator). I strongly advice against downloading this version of the game because DarkFlameWolf stole the game from me (changed password so that I do not have access to the game anymore) and made some really bad changes to the game that I do not approve of. Then she apparently came here to release her version of the game, which is really sad.

You all should go here ( http://koti.welho.com/pranta18/index.htm ) to download the game and the program to play the game with. This is the original and true version of the game Lost Isle.

Thank you for reading and please enjoy Lost Isle. I spent almost 2 years making this game. :)
