* Game Name: Pokemon Flash

* Made with: MacroMedia Flash 8. This means that the coding languages are ActionScript and JavaScript.

* Introduction: Well, pretty much it is the same intro as Fire Red... except I cut out the intro in the demo of the game. Pretty much I plan on making it exactly like Pokemon Fire Red but on a flash (swf) base so you can play it on the internet, on you home computer, anywhere...

* Story: You are a 10 year old boy. You just turned 10 and want to get your first Pokemon. Unfortunatly you can't find Proffesor Oak. So you walk into the grass to find him but just before a Pokemon attacks you Oak comes and taked you to his lab.

He says you can choose either Charmander, Squirtle or Bulbasaur. You pick Squirtle and Gary picks Bulbasaur. You try to leave the lab but Gary challenges you to a fight. (Note: This is the story for the Demo but in the full game you can choose other Pokemon)

* Features: Flash format, possibility of all Pokemon later on, will think of more features later.

* Screenshots: Screenshots are are... but you'll find that they are from the Pokemon game so they aren't very exciting...

A remake of Fire Red in Flash? Bad idea. Sorry, be more original.

Well, I could change it, but first thing first, get it working, get a graphic developer... any takers?

I don't understand why you would need a graphics artist, seeing as all the resources (sprites) that you will need have been ripped.

You need INGAME screenshots, not screens taken from the original game.

Well, the orriginal plan was going to be to use the acuall game screenshots to create the flash game... but I realised it wouldn't work so I need a graphics person...

Well, so far, I need a way to delete a variable, or to do this

Frame 1:

var HP = 30

Frame 2:

var HP = HP-15



I see the obvious problem behind that... and I need an artist...

You are remaking Fire Red, you don't need an Artist.

expanding your horizon to flash i see. all i can say is that you might not get as much support on this project because it's not going to change much about gameplay. but it's good that you're learning and working on something new. good luck.

*Sigh* I need an artist because at the moment I am relying on screenshots... not good...

why screenshots? by just using VBA, you can look at the separate tiles and layers, and can save them separately with the emulator itself.

Uh, if you can tell me how, I will do it... and hows about a suggestion or two with the storyline?

thing you have to watch out for is the problem all large flash movies have
Lag they can get quite bulky quite fast, you have to come up with some inovative code to avoid it or just have it load every now and then
