First things first, to play A Link To The Proto you will need:
1. The included patch
2. A patching program such as LunarIPS (LIPS)
3. A copy of Zelda A Link To The Past (U) WITHOUT HEADER

4. Other useful Information:

Great work SePH. I guess you deserved that sleep, as well as the retirement. And great that you did it with a hack that mimics the original game, rather than Conker, which is basically a different type of the game.

Thank you, I've ultimately returned to my roots that were creating Zelda rom hacks!

The Alttp prototype assets were a great way to inspire me at romhacking this game again, one final time!

Guys, I did the translation to Brazilian Portuguese. But I was unable to put accents. I would like someone to help me up if there was interest

so i came across a bug that if you use the magic powder while simultaneously hit by a deadrock you might get permastunned and thereby unable to move.

If you mean by "deathrocks" those green boulders, I cannot reproduce.

the deadrocks are the enemies, not the boulders. also had another freezing moment when using the powder on the bubble but i was able to break out of it.

So you call the enemies that turn into stone dead rocks, and bubbles...? Ah well. No idea. If there are bug reports they should be more precise I assume *shrugs

Bubbles are the "anti-fairies."

Also is that monster museum a showcase of unused sprites?

Official terminology vs Hyrule Magic terminology is:

1.) those guys on Death Mountain, which you powder to be able to defeat them; but they turn blue and can not be defeated, if you hit them with other weapons:
-official name: deadrock (and not deathrock)
-hyrule magic name: squirrel
-hex value of sprite: 27

2.) those guys in dungeons, which can not be defeated in any other way, but with powder and change into fairy once you powder them, they are red with a skull in the middle:
-official name: anti-fairy
-hyrule magic name: bubble
-hex value of sprite: 15

So the bug should be: that Link freezes after you try and powder the ones under number one, if you get hit in the same moment. This seems like Fastrom bug, since this bug never happens in the original game.

Thanks for clearing that up. I'm not familiar with those names.
I tried to reproduce the bug on those "squirrels" as well but couldn't reproduce. I didn't try on anti-fairy but know now which these are (I think in the first dungeon there's also sort of a shooter that shoots black "bubbles" which made it confusing).
I don't know what causes this bug, I am mainly interested whether all-in has it as well, since the prototype shares much code (jumping boots and alike).

i had no idea this ran on a fast rom. that explains why i did not notice any slowdowns.

jump boots i am surprised were removed but at the same time it seems like there were remnants of its intended use in the final version.

Probably because those boots make it too easy, you can dodge most enemies.
I also tried anti-fairies and again the deathrocks, it doesn't freeze for me... I need to be able to reproduce a bug in order to see what's wrong Sad

Don't lose sleep over this. I can not reproduce this bug either. I played the Proto hack from beginning to end and it has it's minor faults, definitely acceptable. And if those are fixed, probably no one will play the game again because of it. Same goes for other not so extensive hacks, such as Echoes etc, although Proto has quite a lot of changes in comparisement.
