This is completely uncool. Don’t be that designer who takes other peoples ‘ ideas for yourself. It’s a good way to run yourself out of the industry.
So, I’m the designer friend here. To get straight to the point: - My game (Flowering Heights): connorwake.com/portfolio/flo… - Andrew Kuplic’s (Towering Purrfection): kickstarter.com/projects/fla… 1/5

‘“Mom! I can play Zelda’s treasure chest sound on my flute! ” Mom: “Games again? Stop wasting your time! Go and study!” I want to let my dejected young self back then that 26 years later, you’ll be playing the flute in the Zelda remake.’ - Professional flutist Ichiro Takijun
『♪ラ#ラシド〜』 「はっ!お母さーん、笛でゼルダの宝箱の音が吹けた!」 と報告にしに行ったら 「またゲーム?そんな役に立たないものまだやってるの!?勉強しなさい‼︎」 と言われてショボンとしていた小学生の僕に教えてあげたい。 26年後のリメイク作品ではお前がフルートを担当するぞと。
