The main goal was to give both NES Zeldas a more enjoyable experience of playing through them. Starting back in October, 2019 for Zelda 1 Redux, and March, 2018 for Zelda 2 Redux, both projects began their work as Quality of Life improvements for the original NES games. This means that every map has logical biomes and zones, each screen follows design conventions from the original (sometimes with a little extra flair), will have nine dungeons, two screens with raft docks, a ladder-reachable item, the same number of open caves and hidden caves, same number of cave types (shops, heart containers, etc), two large lakes, two medium lakes, dungeon 4 on an island, dungeon 7 under a single-screen lake, appropriate enemies on each screen (moblins in the dense forests, tektites and lynel in Death Mountain), and so on.Ĭommemorate the Zelda 35th Anniversary (and someone’s birthday) with redux versions of the NES Zelda titles that started it all! Maps are generated with a philosophy that each map should feel like they were designed by Nintendo developers in an alternate universe and teleported into our own.Enable two degrees of Map Previews and Spoilers for reference or use with trackers.

Eight different options for overworld palettes - Make Hyrule feel like a winter wonderland or view the world through vintage artsy glasses.Use both randomizers together for a truly unique and fresh experience. There are only a handful of flags are in Z1R that are not compatible. Near-perfect compatibility with Fred Coughlin’ Zelda 1 Randomizer, which shuffles dungeon items, dungeon layouts, and more.An option to make burnable bushes and bombable walls visually distinct.To help the player narrow down Dungeon 9’s location, an open cave will be added somewhere in the world with a wise sage who will give a helpful hint. When selected, 8 will appear on the Secret Screen, and 9 can appear under any bush or behind any bombable wall in the game.
