We’re planning a big contest on ZU in the near future that will begin May 1st. This won’t be an ordinary contest though, it will be a riddle-solving point and click adventure spanning across different websites lasting a full month! An epic quest for Zelda fans to enjoy and a chance to win awesome prizes!
Unfortunately at this time all of ZU’s website-building competence is busy on another big project (indeed, we’re all hard at work to bring you awesome things), so we’re reaching out to the community for this one.
We’re looking for some artists who can create the visual backdrops of these sites. For this position we need someone (or several someones) who are quite talented at painting (digitally) scenery and such from scratch in a painterly style.
If you’re interested in helping with this project, please send an email to Bastian at bastain[at]zeldauniverse.net ASAP!





Tingle’s Rosy Rupeeland was released only in Japan and Europe, never making it to the USA due to lackluster sales. Surprisingly, the game was well-received among those who did play and review the game. You play as Tingle, a 35-year-old (and single) man lost in the world. Guided by the mysterious figure Uncle Rupee, Tingle fills a mystical spring with money and gain access to the wonderful Rupeeland, a paradise where nobody has to work. Along the way, hire body guards to protect Tingle – but from what? All may not be as it seems in Tingle’s quest for monetary gain, and Rupeeland just might not be so rosy after all...
Cant wait for this contest.
Dang. Now I don’t have any WACOM or Intuos or Bamboo or what. I only paint with real paint (aka on real paper or canvas). ;_;
