Here's the Ys 1 and 2 ost and a few other music inspirations.

The songs themselves are so good too, probably some of the most memorable game music from my childhood.

@Prinsessa - Thanks so much!
gameplay will be pretty zelda like overall. I haven't gotten much work done on anything other than art. I've been putting most everything off until my health gets a bit better, which it is, but very slowly and I have to patiently just do mockups time to time until I have more time and energy to take on the rest.
With each mockup I get a better idea of what the story may be and how the areas may connect but for now it's pretty open for anything. I'd like to do things with alternative history, mythology, comets, floods, resets in society and probably bits of story ideas from the game inspirations I mentioned.
I'll look at the locations I already have and think of a lot of ideas but there's so many different ways I can go with things I have to just wait and see what stands out most to me as I make the game.
@Earworm - Yeah I highly suggest you listen to the turbografx ys 1 and 2 ost it's sooo good. I think I might have heard a bit of the remake's ost but I wasn't too drawn to the remakes overall.
Yeah I grew up with a Genesis, a Turboduo, and a 3do. I eventually got a gameboy and a n64 but I pretty much missed out on the nes snes until later, which was fine since I still have nostalgia for the games I ended up playing later, I always really wanted Super Mario All stars!
@reila nimu - Thank you!
@QOG - Thanks! Glad you're still following!
@Rogod - Thanks so much! Recapturing what I loved and wanted to see expanded on from the 90s games was my main goal with this. I have a few other games started I may never finish but this one hopefully will be!
I have a small prototype made in The Games Factory but it's really not much, just enough to test the sprites animations and movements seen in the gifs.
@ternbasedcombat - Thank you! I'll likely do most of the music myself but I'm definitely open to tracks if I happen to like them enough, especially if they sound like the music I linked above!

Also here's a few works in progress I posted on Twitter at some point.
