One of the biggest obsessions of fans of Nintendo of the old (and even the new) school is the desire to be able to see the legendary title of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time running on graphics of the most recent generation.
It is something that many fans of the franchise have asked for for years, but the Japanese company does not seem to be in any hurry to please them by starting a series of projects similar to those we have already seen with Capcom and its saga of resident Evil.
So over the last few years we have seen several adventurers start their own independent projects to put together their personal remakes of the Ocarina of Time on the engine. Real Enginewithout the blessing of Nintendo and completely dependent on the support of patrons on platforms like Patreon.
beyond June 2022 We shared with you the existence of a pair of exactly the same cases about the same legendary game. One created by the youtuber RwanLink and another from YouTube user and developer known as CryZENx.
Now, more than a year since that moment, it is impressive to see how much progress has been made in that second project, which at that time seemed less big but which has now been shown in all its splendor.

As we can see, the graphics section is spectacular, but the progress of the game is relatively little, almost a year and a half after the project became popular.
For those who remember the original plot of the title, Goron City and Death Mountain trail are passages that open on the map practically after completing the first dungeon in the Deku Tree.
The good news is that it is possible to download this demo for free through a handy link on the developer’s Patreon site.
