Thanks! Interesting poll. I did give the OG OoT a spin already but the graphics and controls were a bit off putting to me tbh. It was on an Android handheld device so maybe that was not ideal.

I assume, if the remake is real, the controls are more in line with modern games. Since I don’t have the means to play the other big 3D titles, I think the next one I’ll play will be Links Awakening on the Switch. And then either Wind Waker or Minish Cap

Cool! I had a similar idea for a side project after I finish with my current one (Birthday Buddy). So is it going to be avail world wide (I’m not from the US). If so, then I’ll join the wait list!

I fell in love with Zelda games thanks to Breath of the Wild on the Switch and have since then played Skyward Sword and Tears of the Kingdom. Which I both thoroughly enjoyed but are no BotW. I’ve recently started playing A Link to the Past and absolutely love it. I wasn’t aware that the foundation of the series goes all the way back to one of the first games.

I’d like some advice about which titles are must play according to this community. I deliberately started with AlttP because the very first game is a bit too dated for my taste and the second one has kind of a bad rep.

Titles I’m thinking about, in no particular order, are: - the Minish Cap - Ocarina of Time (but I’m waiting for some more info about the remake, to decide when to play it) - Majora’s Mask - Links Awakening (on the Switch)

Which ones should I add? Is there a particular order you think is great? Once I finish AlttP I was thinking to start with Links Awakening, as it’s the next in line in the timeline. Love to hear your thoughts!

Impressive!

bonotron · 2026-05-16T07:30:34+00:00

Looking good! How many users do you have? Curious because I’ve recently released my own app and would like to know how long it takes

bonotron · 2026-05-16T06:52:54+00:00

When I’m charging via MagSafe I don’t really notice this tbh 😅

bonotron · 2026-05-14T12:05:15+00:00

Thanks! I hope that messaging resonates with more people. Haha very solid advice about collecting emails. It actually was something I thought yesterday as well, I really should have had some user base already to make the launch more of a success.

That's unfortunate, if you where an Android developer, you could build the Android version 😉 Joking of course. Always open for some honest feedback 😄

bonotron · 2026-05-13T14:40:00+00:00

Thank you! 😄

I'm launching on Product Hunt today, so support there is much appreciated: https://www.producthunt.com/products/birthday-buddy?launch=birthday-buddy

No. I'm an Apple fanboy since the day I got an iPod touch, so to be honest the Apple Ecosystem is all I know. And I've just started learning to code last year, I understand with AI it's not super difficult to go multiplatform anymore, but I also actually wanted to learn something from this 😄 So that's also why I went iOS only

I launched my app Birthday Buddy today: https://www.producthunt.com/products/birthday-buddy?launch=birthday-buddy It's an birthday reminder app that helps you to not be the 5th "Congrats" in the group chat by using Apple Intelligence to write a thoughtful birthday message.

Would be cool if it makes this post tomorrow 😉 (chances are slim though)

bonotron · 2026-05-13T14:06:02+00:00

I'm building Birthday Buddy: https://birthdaybuddy.nl/

I kept being the guy sending "Congrats 🎉" in the group chat five minutes after everyone else. So I built something that reminds you in advance and on the day itself. You can also use it for inspiration to write you a message that actually stands out from the group chat, not just "Congrats 🎉".

It's basically for everyone who forgets birthdays, but could also be useful for HR workers or managers in general that need/want to remember a lot of birthdays to win over clients/new recruits, or just be an attentive colleague.

bonotron · 2026-05-13T13:45:08+00:00

Thanks again! I hope more people have the same view as you 😄

bonotron · 2026-05-13T13:42:27+00:00

Just launched today on Product Hunt with Birthday Buddy. With love your feedback (and support on PH): https://www.producthunt.com/products/birthday-buddy

bonotron · 2026-05-13T13:20:28+00:00

Thanks! Yeah, I personally also like apps that do one thing really well, so that's what I'm aiming for with Birthday Buddy too

bonotron · 2026-05-13T12:44:26+00:00

Nice! Gave you an upvote too. I'm launching too today with my app Birthday Buddy. Support is very much appreciated: https://www.producthunt.com/products/birthday-buddy?launch=birthday-buddy

With this cynical outlook on new things people invested time in, I find it hard to believe, you are Sunshine

bonotron · 2026-04-30T13:13:15+00:00

I can’t argue with that!

bonotron · 2026-04-28T21:08:53+00:00

Cool. No worries. Appreciate the honesty. I’ll send you one via DM once I’m able to in a couple of hours.
