The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is a game where you start as young Link, then become an adult. You have to complete the majority of the game as adult Link. So is it possible to beat the entire game using only young Link? In this video, I attempt to beat The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time using only young Link!

    I find it hilarious that Young Link's height was a problem for 95% of this playthrough except for the final boss. Like sure, the kid can't reach easy platforms but he takes down a demon pig no problem. He is a force to be feared

    “Theres only 3 timelines from oot!” The secret fourth timeline:

    I always thought that the boomerang could have been useful as adult Link
  • @Kriskirby1992
    The Master Sword after realizing sealing Link for 7 years was meaningless and only caused war and suffering:
  • It's funny how Ganondorf just says "Curse you Zelda" twice at the end there
  • @Feb00500op
    zelda sending young link back is so funny to me sending 10 year old link 7 years back, and suddenly you find a 3 year old at the temple of time lmao
  • @John3_16-17
    As a kid, i never figured out how to get the goron tunic, so i somehow beat the fire temple with just the kokiri tunic through sheer stubbornness thinking it was the intended way
  • @RaveNinja1401
    Moral of the story: Young Link at the tender age of 10 was just as capable of a hero, by really underestimating him the Golden Goddesses made a huge oopsie with timeline splits, floods, twilight etc.
  • @Henry7Madsen
    I actually really appreciate that he still does what he can and only uses glitches when absolutely necessary
  • Imagine how accomplished Link probably feels about defeating Ganon as a child. Honestly I think that’s even more badass than doing it as adult Link.
  • @wroij
    In areas with a heat-timer, if you’re in mid-air (e.g. falling down the shaft outside of Fire Temple), you can press the button that ocarina is assigned to, which will temporarily freeze the timer until you land on the ground. That would help out with the tight timing in that area :)

    17:48 Great video, but there's a minor detail you missed. You don't actually need Fire Arrows to detonate a bombflower. You can actually use regular arrows. Doesn't matter for this run since you can't use either, just thought I'd point that out.
  • In a world where pichu can defeat mewtwo, you can't use smash a reference lmao
  • @Sencilia
    This was very interesting to watch. I found it funny that most of the obstacles were just things ever so slightly too high for Link yo reach.
  • Beating phantom ganon so easily with the boomerang is quite hilarious, not to mention the ganon's fight going under him by just running by. It looks like young Link was quite the hero!
  • @IndigoTeddy
    If you want to do Shadow as child again, there's a jumpslash clip from the cage to the ferry. You might also want to look up OOT Max Bosses as Child and OOT Max% Child to see other strats that speedrunners use for a similar kind of route you did. And Defeat Ganon No SRM for the endgame portion. Interesting vid though.
  • @wdf70
    Meanwhile Speedrunners: Wrong Warp to castle > Beat Ganon. Lol very cool to see an actual in order progression of ways to actually beat the entire game as young link. Kudos to you, sir.
  • @TheUberElite9588
    I remember seeing something where if you like deathwarp as you collect the medallions it negates the cutscenes but I think it was pretty involved to set up.

    Next bro is gonna do Majora’s Mask maskless
