The Myth of Zayla is my entry for the annual ByteOff competition. It is made by one person in one month with a software called NES Maker. Please note you will need an emulator to play this game! Suggested emulators: Mesen / FCEUX.

There is also manual & full soundtrack as separate files. Music was composed by me and made with Famitracker. Most of the GFX has been ispired by Midjourneybot and Dall-E 2. 

"Princess captured by frankenstein, 8 bit pixelart" (Midjourneybot)


Princess Zayla


"Angel pixelart" (Dall-E 2)

Mafaldrian, Guardian of Zerno



"portrait of an old man, stylish white beard and white hair, wearing blue overalls 8 bit pixelart" (Dall-E 2)


Zerno



BEWARE! There will be some twisted humor that might not be suitable for the strict minded. xD


Long play video can be found here. However I suggest you try out the game yourself before watching the video.

How's the game coming along? Any update?

I have been busy with other projects and life so it is very unlikely I will be able to finish Zayla this year... :/ Feels sad to postpone things, but meanwhile. Have you played the beta already? The invitation link should be still valid.  https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=channel_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbVF1eWduYkxLWlRCbVowMmRCNlh1ZGZtTHFlZ3xBQ3Jtc0tudXhEc29ORGhsUXJvRXdpcnQ3SXRyWDVaU2FUNU9MRl9BRTZPSjg4c2hRLVZPVWRzOGRnc2pfWGJsVUdUNTFueS1Nc1JsRGVrdllmbnRaSTlDSGxibmJyZjE5ZG14OXhXUnVzcGtFdDZNODFQMHB0TQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fdiscord.gg%2FhW5nJGvCxj

There's a new Devlog! You have been so supportive with this game that I am going to make it a real game in the future. There is no ETA yet but I will keep you in touch.
