Description
There were initially three planned games for the Game Boy Color Zelda Oracle series in Japan. Those titles were, "The Mysterious Seed of Power," "The Mysterious Seed of Wisdom," and "The Mysterious Seed of Courage." Complexity required the developers to limit the titles to two. Elements of the "Courage" title were incorporated into the other two titles. This would have likely been the American title for the third installment.This poster is in honour of the third title of the Oracle series that never made it out of development. It was compiled as part of a college class project, using Adobe Photoshop CS and -CS2. It uses official art from the Oracle games and A Link to the Past. The screenshots were faked, using ZQuest, the editor for the unofficial Zelda project, Zelda Classic (www.zeldaclassic.com). There are a few elements I would like to improve in the future. This is only half scale of the original PSD file.

Sorry for the late reply!Β Thanks!Β This is a really old college project and I wanted to improve the resolution on some of the official art but had no time back then.

The TLoZ Oracle of series are the two most nostalgic games of mine. If only the third one existed. :3

Wait. If Seasons took place in Holodrum, and Ages took place in Labrynna, where would Secrets take place. (Also, this art is right now ten years old, and I was born in the same year Seasons and Ages were released, 2001! Except I was born four months later...)

According the poster, Secrets takes place in Zarkaine (Zar-KAYN). Β I made up the word, though. Β It also is connected to the Zelda'esque song I wrote five years ago.

Really? I didn't notice. I came up with Goronu, which is from a really bad Zelda game that I never played and never will.
2001! Year of my birth! AND SPY KIDS!!! YES!!!

Fantastic poster.
...y'know, if this game HAD come out, chances are I wouldn't be here, or I wouldn't be the deviant I am now.
Anyway, I know it's 3-4 years old, but this is a pretty good poster, though the screenshots don't meet the Gameboy Color color limit.

Thank you. You'll have to tell me your story sometime.
Oh, and yeah; Link's sprite has too many colours for GBC, but the environments are fine, albeit using vibrant palettes. I didn't actually make the Link sprites; they were done for Zelda Classic by another user. I was really pressed on time, and what I did was most practical back then.

Go for it. My poster is three years old and could use a lot of updating. ^.^

lol I meant an Oracle of secrets game with ZQuest :3 But I'm guessing that will probably take forever, right?

ZQuest? Excuse me, but may I ask what that is?

I suggest starting with a mini-quest that focuses on riddles and puzzles. You can always add more to it later if your quest has good reception, much like many other quest designers have done.

Hmm, alright. I think I'll do that. But I'm gonna have to figure out how to make it where you can bomb stuff first.

So sorry for such a late response. No; it's a fictional game based on a dropped concept of a real title.

Too bad the third game was discarded in the end. Oh, well, the two Oracles came out great, so I'll forgive them.
Great job here, I would have loved to see (and play) this game.

Aww. Arigatou gozaimasu! I hope to update the deviation in the future, so that it looks as sharp as I originally planned it to be.
