Zelda 2: Remade as a First Person Shooter

Michael Johnston, you have way too much time on your hands my friend. For it’s you who single handedly took Zelda 2: The Adventures of Link and transformed it into a first person shooter.

“This game was incredibly fun to make. I am a fan of the original NES game and love its innovations and clever game design. But as we all know, Zelda games are long and complex. When starting this project I had to choose very carefully what I had time to accomplish if this game was ever to see the light of day. As a result I decided to remake the beginning of the game up to the end of the first boss. This seemed simple enough, but I knew it would be a challenge. This is the result of my learning programming for the first time and a labor of love making this game in 3D.” says Johnson.

Too bad it’s not the full game, but then again it’s better than nothing. You can find a video demo of the game and a link to play it below.
