UPDATE: We were having a few issues with the video code. Please note the video that was on this article before is wrong and for a moment we cannot put the video on the site. No worries, though, the video has been fixed and the one you see right now is correct. We offer our sincerest apologies to Zion for this mix-up and anybody else who may have been affected. You can enjoy how great this trailer really is!



Zion, an avid RPG fan and PSP coder has today posted a teaser trailer for his upcoming homebrew game, presumably coded in Lua titled Legend of Zelda - Quest of Link. In case you've forgotten, let's take a trip back to September 2006. Zion released his second installment of his Linkens Quest homebrew game which received loads of jumps and great comments and had over 3500 downloads! This game has been described by Zion as the "spiritual successor" to Linkens Quest.

It hasn't been finished yet, so this is very much a small snippet of what you can expect to see in the final version. We're quite sure that Legend of Zelda and RPG fans will probably start salivating at the sight of this homebrew game. It might look professionally-made, but as the spelling mistake in the opening screen - Zion Productions Presenets - suggests, this is all the work of one coder and a video creator (thanks PSPDemon!). Zion says the aim is to make this a 5+ hour game, so playability and a deep storyline is a necessity. Here's what Zion said about the game:

This game isn't anywhere near finished, and everything contained in it could change in future versions, what is done though is done well , and while it may not be a lot, it shows the promise this game has.


Would you like to continue the quest? We'll have to wait and see...

Are you guys kidding, the game looks awesome. I hope you realize how much time and hard work it must be taking him to create such a great game. It looks like an original zelda game for the gameboy advance.

Come on guys this is a whole game, with a new story etc.

the reason it looks like minsih cap is because it uses the same sprites.....

As for me, i can say its not fake as a have BETA tested a previous version

 » This game sucks

This game sucks more then Zion's mom. I know because she was sucking on me recently. All zion can do is copy and paste other people's LUA code and pretend it is his. He can't code for s hit and he is a little kid. QJ, please take this stupid video off your site as Zion is a faker.

   Re: WTF (Unregistered) - 2007-01-16
 » Loser

You call yourself 'Zions Mom' and yet you say his mom was sucking you recently. WTF is that supposed to mean you retard. And have you even coded anything useful? Have you even checked his lua script to verify that it is indeed, as you say, copied from others? Or are you just going by what previous posters had said, because you dont have a mind of your own, and apparently like sucking on yourself, you sick bastard.

such immaturity, some people here are so damn stupid

wheres my gun seriously i need to snipe everyone of these frigging pieces of crap

 » why bother with a minnish cap clone?

Why not try and make something original. I doubt many would bother downloading a game which they have seen and played before.

Why release such a sh*t teaser? Why are you alive zion? Your continued existence does seem futile if you intend to waste our time with this crap.

***** you, eat a pile of ***** you *****ing *****. lets see your awesome game before you troll and flame anonymously behind a computer screen, *****ing noob *****
   by u all suck (Unregistered) - 2007-01-16
 » u all suck

hasnt it occured to all of you that he HAS SIMPLY JUST USED THE MINISH CAP SPRITES ?????? IS THIS THE FIRST TIME YOU HAVEHEARD OF CODERS USING GAME SPRITES?? ARE YOU ALL SUCH DUMBASS NOOBS?

This isnt a clone, he used the sprites, so what. it will be a great game and you can all eat a pile of your own words once this gets released.

*****ing shame on this whole community. if this project doesnt see the light of day, you all only have your *****ing ignorant selves to blame for it.

So many coders leave because of little flaming *****gots like you who couldnt code for *****ing *****.

system of a down never made a song like that.
think your thinking of the fan made song by a european group. Someone 6yrs ago started spreading the System of a down rumour on this song.

who cares if its the same sprites... who cares if its snippets... its more than what all your morons have done for the community... and yet you have the arrogance to flame? all you 13 year olds go back to play school.

Come on guys, stop being so pesimistic, do you have any idea how hard it is to code something. Even behind just a sprite moving there are a ton of "Behind-the-scene" coding needed to get it to work right. Just appreciate that some people are taking the time to actualy make something for you.

Good job man, looks a lot like the GBA Zelda games which is a + seeing how that was programmed by PROFFESIONALS, keep at it and I look forward to your future updates and releases.

I not into homebrew but that was pretty impressive. I wonder how the final build will be like.

 » whyTF would you release a teaser?

seriously Zion, what did u expect from the community when U release a tiny preview of what looks to be a replica of minnish cap? you want praise after cloning a game readily available on exophases emulator?

Geez, if you want credit FINISH AND RELEASE THE DAMN THING. Dont waste our time with crappy little updates.

Excuse me but im off to play minnish cap and forget you ever existed.

 » THIS LOOKS F***** AWSOME!!!

i cant believe how slack some peeps can be

zions a good man hes coding this out of a pashion and for FREE he isnt getting paid but all hes getting is "this is s**t" and ur a C**T but jeez if u dont like it just down download it simple as that

coding isnt as easy as ud think, its not a case of writing the title then adding a few left, right, jump, duck and roll look at the source code for any psp app and ull see how dificult it can get

im 100% for u zion keep it up and i cant wait for the release!!

its suport all the way from this man :D


   Re: tastyjew (Unregistered) - 2007-01-17
 » 100% for Zion

Yeah, I agree, Im 100% for ZION TO F*** OFF. Hope he doesnt have any smoke detectors near his computer so when I set fire to his drugged out face he won't notice.

@tastyjew
Dude, what the ***** are you talking about? Being touch behind a screen? LoL..you must have won the "Special Olympics"...*****ing dumb piece of *****. One day, you'll died by your own fire you piece of ignorant piece of *****ing dumb*****...get a *****ing life man.

@Zion, Keep up the good work. This sure looks pretty damn good despite all the comments made by these *****ing, dumb, *****ty jerks.

 » ?

its a shame that half of you are flaming for no good reason. how the ***** has he syole any code? the only other link game in lua WAS CREATED BY ZION. If your not interested then ***** off and dont watch he trailer or play the game. you guys act like a bunc of 13 year old kids, and this guy zion has spent his hours coding a game for all of you to play and enjoy for free.
if this is aNOther coder who leaves the scene, you have no one to blame but yourself.
and al the flamers... lets see you code a better game. until then, stop *****ing flaming like a bunch of girls and driving yet another coder away from the scene. its seems thats all you little *****s do while you can sit there and not code for *****ing *****
