'''Legend of Tux'''
__NOTOC__


Domain name registered: [http://www.legendoftux.com http://www.legendoftux.com]
This is the Workshop area for the latest project development updates. For the complete listing of released games, please see '''[https://ldsmith.games LDSMITH GAMES]'''.


Compiled stable Windows and Linux binaries, which I uploaded to www.legendoftux.com.  Noticed a graphical glitch with the blue orbs on the Linux version.
== Updates ==




== Concept ==
=== April 2026 ===


I started development on the Legend of Tux a few weeks ago. I wanted to create a game that combined the gameplay of a Mega Man game and the original Legend of Zelda.
* New Game '''[https://ldsmith.games/details/easter-egg-crash Easter Egg Crash]'''


The controls are simple. Use the arrow keys (or a,s,d,w) to move and spacebar to attack. Hold spacebar to charge your sword to shoot it. Collect 3 orbs of the same color to get a 3x attack power boost against enemies of that color. Defeat all enemies in a room to move to the next room. Clear all 16 rooms to win.
- In this puzzle game, colored eggs (red, green, yellow blue) fall in pairs. You must crash the easter eggs using gems of the same color. Crash the number of eggs specified in the goals to move to the next level.


Gameplay is completely linear. Move one room to the next until you reach the boss room and defeat the boss.  The one aspect that I hate the most about Zelda style games is trying to determine where to go next.

*Question:  Should levels be replayable?  To pick up missed items on the first playthrough.


*Question: Should the player be able to extend their maximum life?  This may give an unfair advantage in later stages. Maybe have health boosts within the level to extend your life, but they would disappear after the level is over (like SMB2)

*Puzzles that make the user solve computer science style problems, such as binary arithmetic


*Instead of having the 3 orb bouns give you 3x power against enemies of that color, have the 3 orb bonus apply a special effect to your weapon.  For instance, 3 red orbs will make your sword have flames, which will set enemies on fire when you hit them, which causes additional periodic damamge.  Having 3 blue orbs would give your weapon the chill effect that will frezze enemies when you hit them.  Three yellow orbs could give you shields or something.


*Add a total orb count... Decision:

** Make orbs like money to buy items
