The couple behind the game is making a new version.

i enjoyed the game, therefore, everyone else should enjoy it, too. if you aren't enjoying BoO, the game is not for you.
real discussion: there can be some janky moments. the boss fights are not hard, but not easy, either. when i was young, these fights seemed hard, but they're trivial as an adult gaymer. it's timeless because it's mythical creatures, not flavor of the month. the music may be a little repetitive, but you get used to it.
the bone i had to pick with it was having to "farm" olives, and when you die, you lose half of them each time, so save often if you have survival issues and cling to the olives. it's sort of necessary to farm those, so save up and buy the thing before you fall off that cliff because hopping on the dolphin can be sketchy. another bullshit mechanic is getting salamander skins to drop. and don't get me started on the sword attack that eats your hp if you don't have the infinite upgrade. last but not least, don't get lost in the forest, the labyrinth, or the final stage. just like some games, the last place you can save is a point of no return...in case you feel like dicking around in the game for nostalgic purposes.
any and all setbacks or inconveniences aside, it's still casual, no timers, just simple adventuring: an experience a simple oldfag would love to get their hands on.
