What? That's today right? What's launching?

This game is depressingly hard. ♥♥♥♥ing dating.

What's this Tiled thing you made the map or whatever with and why doesn't it work in Python?

In the official games, the difficulty is low enough so that a variety of teams can avoid grinding. When you increase the difficulty, you require more teams to grind that didn't have to before. There are ways around this, but it takes a little more effort. So yeah, anyone can do what they want...

I don't know what you're asking. It bottlenecks players that don't want to grind. You can have your players grind if you want to (or EV train or whatever). I think grinding is a waste of time in novelty games but you can do whatever you want all the same.

You already said that you don't mind having people grind in your game so I don't know what you want to hear. The dichotomy of grinding versus "optimization" (which I'm presuming means picking specific Pokemon given the context) is not something that you have to put in your game. I already...

Actually, you can choose to appeal to whomever you want to. There's no need to reach some mass audience. I'm sure many people around here will tell you that they're working on a game for their own satisfaction and not the satisfaction of the players. But sometimes it's desirable to think...

More difficult isn't always better even if the game is too easy. You have to give the player a wide variety of options and strategies or you just go from easy to impossible. And in most Pokemon games, you don't have the tools to actually get better. You can't easily switch up your moveset or...

You're one of the people who would be working on this, right? I'll ask again since I think it got lost in the doom and gloom. What skills and experience are you guys looking for when recruiting a team? I'm not promising to help, but I'd like to know.

What knowledge/experience/whatever would you be looking for when assembling a team to make something like this?

Easter eggs are always more fun for the developer than the player. Multiply that statement by 10 if they are references to other media.

This. McAfee keeps saying it's a trojan and then deleting it.

While I haven't played altogether many hacks, this one is my absolute favorite by far. It's the only hack I've come across that is heavily based around what appears to be developing into a deep and very gripping story. I loved the cliffhanger even though it was spoiled because I read too much of...

New Pokemon: Bleh. I don't even like the new ones GameFreak comes up with. I'll admit that I don't spend much time scouting out fakemon to see how good they can be, but unless the pokemon is doing something really cool that no other pokemon has done yet, I don't see a need for new pokemon. There...

Thanks. I hadn't seen that.
