<p>An amateur video game developer known as <a class="external" href="https://twitter.com/thedopster/status/1332345549429886979">Dopply on Twitter</a> has released reimagined remakes of the 1993 Phillips CD-i action-adventure games <strong>Link: The Faces of Evil</strong> and <strong>Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon</strong>.</p>
<p>The games were created in Game Maker over four years and feature the original assets. Here’s a bit more insight:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>“I developed these over the course of 4 years in Game Maker as an exercise to teach myself game development and fulfill an in-joke between friends. As an amateur effort, the programming got a little rough, but hey, it works, and I learned a ton in the process.”</p>
</blockquote>
<aside class="object object-tweet">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p><span lang="en" dir="ltr">Check out this wild *full remake* of the weird as heck CD-I Zelda games, made with original assets in game maker! <a href="https://t.co/SLSArJgrE2">https://t.co/SLSArJgrE2</a> <a href="https://t.co/ika9JKWrA2">pic.twitter.com/ika9JKWrA2</a></span>— brandon sheffield (@necrosofty) <a href="https://twitter.com/necrosofty/status/1332505936225656834?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 28, 2020</a></p></blockquote>
</aside>
<p>While these are “not 1:1 remakes”, Dopply believes they “capture the spirit” of the original games. There are also some modern features – like widescreen mode, remastered mode (for less frustrating play), subtitles, improved sprites, unlockables, and apparently more.</p>
<p>Due to the “nature” of these games, this is the final version and there are no plans to release future updates. In related news, Zelda fans <a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2020/11/random_hyrule_warriors_age_of_calamity_might_include_a_popular_zelda_cd-i_reference">think they might have spotted a Link CD-i reference</a> in <strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/hyrule_warriors_age_of_calamity">Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity</a></strong>.</p>
