Another 3D Link's Awakening project pops up

By JC Fletcher
We thought it was weird, but kind of admirable, when one guy, "MithosKuu," started recreating the Game Boy classic The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening in 3D. However, it appears that someone named "Bocophobic" has beaten MithosKuu to the punch with a playable (work-in-progress) version of the game in full 3D, with voice acting and Ocarina of Time-style interface.

The resulting game, Ballad of the Wind Fish, is impressive, in that the game runs properly and everything — and that it hasn't been cease-and-desisted out of existence yet. For a fanmade 3D game by one guy, it looks pretty good, too — if not as iconic as the Game Boy game, at the very least, better than the CD-I Zeldas.
