I think the dull, greyish colour scheme is actually a good thing. It makes the colored parts of the dungeon (that is, the puzzles) stand out and "pop" against the background. And given that the dungeon already throws so much in terms of coloured elements at you, having the floor and walls be colourful too would make the entire thing look way too messy and busy.
@Clepto_and_Co18 күн бұрын
I think the best way to improve the boss would've been to make it more lije the ball enemies you have to drop in the right colored hole. Here's my take: You enter the room and there's a blue triangle at the top of the room where a blue hardhit beetle waits for you and two red holes on either side. You remember that the magic powder changed the color of the blob miniboss so you use it on the boss and he changes from blue to red, and now you have to smack him into the hole before it bumps you into the other. When you successfully knock it into the hole it takes damage if it was red and then changes back to blue while launching out back to the blue triangle, landing so hard it drops rocks from the ceiling simlarly to the other miniboss. Once you do this enough times you win. This way all the lose end themes of the dungeon would come together as seperate "tutorials" for the boss

I find it funny that you critize the boss for being too easy when I had so much trouble with it in both versions due to it regenerating health. Maybe it's just a skill issue, lol.
@leviwarren622217 күн бұрын
Good call, I think health regen is a mechanic that draws a sharp distinction between different play styles. Brawlers often find regeners much easier than slower styles of play.

@Brockbuiltmore19 күн бұрын
if you ask me, i played this dungeon when the Switch version was new, i think the reason the boss is so easy is because its just an optional dungeon. sure, i cant explain why the mid bosses are harder but still. we have to know that when this game came out at a time before Breath of the wild was supposedly even conceived. there was no monk mas koshia 30 years ago. but its also the confliction: do you want to give your players a painless relaxing dungeon after they went out of the way to look for this optional dungeon or do you want to give your experienced veteran players a challenge for a strong boss and dungeon for one of the best things in the game for getting the DLC? we also have to know that at the time when the original links awakening came out, it was only the 4th game in the series. nowadays we have 40 years of experience and a crapload of games to look at. but to people 31 years ago, all they had as mainline games were the original, zelda 2 and link to the past. that was it. sure, adventure of link has a reputation for being the hardest game in the series, but all in all, if we went back im pretty sure they COULDVE made the color dungeon harder...

I remember the DX version on Game Boy Colour. Always went Red. But I have a couple of ideas how the Dungeon could have been improved; They could have iterated on ideas they used in the Dungeons you have been through already. Added a second floor under the first, which is shaped like a Hat or Pants (whichever works better), and part of the design is moving between the two floors, with Doors that open with a specific colour active. Meaning the colour switch puzzles have a lot more significance, beyond dropping a key. Another element could be that some floors change colour as well, depending on the switch state (which there are minimum 3 of) All of this training (because that is what the Dungeons partially do, train you in mechanics) leads to how the boss would change. The floor idea that you gave, but with the switches in each corner. And the boss can also bang into them, to make the colours swap, to give him an advantage. And the edges would lead to a Bottomed Pit, much like the 1st Dungeon boss, which resets the fight. With the exit coming out in the adjacent room.

This dungeon is very mediocre, but I think the main problem is that it hasn't aged well. The dungeon was originally made to show off the new color capabilities of the Game Boy Color, but now that that novelty has worn off, you're left with a very meh dungeon. Still, I think the addition of this dungeon to the DX version was still much better than the additions added to the Switch Remake.

Very boring and gimmicky dungeon, with overpowered rewards that break an already easy game (DX being even easier than the original for a few reasons). The gimmick makes sense for DX, but not the Switch version. I wish they had replaced the Color Dungeon with Dampé (makes sense since it's a graveyard too), and kept the photographer from DX instead!
