I can't believe I've not once mentioned Legend Maker! Basically, it started out as a Zelda Maker, less complex than Zelda Classic and more akin to Mario Maker. Cue Nintendo's Cease and Desist, and a few tweaks later, an original IP! You can make an overworld and dungeons of your own design- the overworld is 1000X bigger than A Link to the Past on SNES. You can create puzzles, and drag items onto things to change their properties, i.e. a Birdoc (basically flying Octorok) that spits fire (drag a fire rod onto it in Maker Mode) a door can become a key door, etc.

It's just in alpha now but more features and tweaks are of course planned, such as NPC editing, custom music and sprites and a customizable player character. I already have 4 ideas for games- two being reimagings of Zelda games: a top-down Zelda II better than the Zelda Classic version, and a proper version of the Game (&) Watch games which actually had a story about invading dragons. I call it "The Legend of Zelda: Gregarious Wyverns." My next ideas are rather undeveloped- a Zelda styled game starring my OC/alter ego/namesake Okami Takahashi, and finally a Zelda-styled game starring everyone's first favorite DBZ parallel to Link  Future Trunks. I've always wanted a DBZ game like that so I might as well make it myself.

Unfortunately, Legend Maker failed on Kickstarter, so they've moved to the subscription service Patreon. If you're interested in the project, please consider becoming a Patron and spread the word. It's a reasonable price but we need a lot of support. And like always with Patreon, there are monthly goodies. Every month starting in July, new builds of the game will be released. And that's all the info I have.
