Grizelda: Lynx and the Nine Lives

Super cute retro game! I think the play on words with the name is really fun. Once you play the game, you realize that there is nothing stolen from any other games. It's really very unique. The story is cute. The NPCs are absolutely adorable, and they each have their own little side quest. Each of the levels and worlds is cleverly designed and the puzzles and bosses take some real thought. It's not a throwaway game that you can beat in a few hours. There are so many secrets and layers. I can't believe this game was made by only two people. And it's completely free, so why not?

"Grizelda: Lynx and the Nine Lives" is an unabashed, lazy ripoff of Legend of Zelda (Copyright Nintendo, 1986). Many lazy "amateur" developers don't pay attention to their obligations under copyright law, and often steal the ideas of actual, real game developers without credit, such as the "developer" here has done. Sure, Link has been replaced with a cat, but everything else is basically aping the success of Miyamotos genre defining breakthrough. Putting aside the unethical intellectual, creative and moral bankruptcy of stealing someone else's game concept, this is also breaking that unwritten law of stealing other people's game ideas... you should at least try to do better than the game you're ripping off. "Grizelda: Lynx and the Nine Lives" is considerably worse than Legend of Zelda, despite being released many decades later. This features really godawful pixelcrap "art" instead of real graphics. It's hard to say if this was because the developer didn't have the skill to do the job of creating 3D visuals, or couldn't afford to hire someone who does, but it also doesn't matter. What matters is that this looks much worse than most other games because of that decision, and…

[h1]Before I played Grizelda: Lynx and the Nine Lives, I had a small pp, no friends, no gf, depression, and no life. These things havent changed, but the game is pretty good[/h1]

im so glad when people make a game that is like another game i love but have done everything i could do in, because now i get to play a whole new adventure with all the things i loved about the other game and that doesn't bother me, that it brings nothing new to the table feature wise, i will always appreciate a good old school Zelda clone because after 40+ years il never get tired of the style that made me fall in love in the first place
