Aenopolis is the 8th Gym?To me, it sounded like a 7th Gym Town, Or maybe somewhere with some Big Hi-Tech Ship that Takes you to The Elite Four,and afterward, Battle Frontier.
Oh, and Can you Ride Kyusak?
I just thought of some Moves that might Be good for your game.
Ride: Maybe HM.The Pokemon Charges at the Opponent.It can also be used to go Faster on Flat Terrain.
Power:90
Accuracy: 100
Toxic Health:Kyusak's Evolutionary Line Move. It can Powerfully Poison an Opponent, but can also be used on an Ally to heal them by one quarter of their Max Health.
Power:---
Accuracy:70
Those are some Of My Ideas.

Nice! But, not to offense you, didn't you get the Fonts folder? You are currently using the ARIAL font in your game and doesn't look good in it. Anyway, It is SUPER BRILLIANT! The fakemon were good!

I like your idea of making a property line system, however I'm interested in how it's going to pan out. However, I'm thinking that you need to update with more screenshots as opposed to fakemon, at least show some of those within the game. Also, on that notion of fakemon, I like most of the sprites, however I think 101 of them would be quite ambitious and a little too many to be quite frank, but that's me. To be honest, what you're lacking majorly, is diversity between your screenshots, the updates look the same as the original screens and I think you need to mix it up a little, add to your tileset for example. The mapping seems to be quite good however, maybe you should push the boundaries and take the advantage of RMXP and add depth with the ability to add more tiles, more flow and more features to your mapping style.

All in all, you've got a steady base, you just need to work on convincing us that there's more than just aesthetics to this game, I'd like to see some events and some more towns with a different look than those already shown. Best of luck with your project, if you need further critique I'm free to offer my assistance.

First of all, I understand your worry fakemon-wise, but I also want to focus on player choice. With the storyline taking presidence, player choice would therefore suffer as a consequence (I originally wasn't even going to allow gender or name chocie for sake of the storyline). More fakemon = more player choice. I also want to create a game the player can become immersed in. I have revealed (so-far) very little about the backstories of towns or what they contain or about fakemon's movesets or even the typing of the gym leaders. This is to create an unknown fronteir for the player to explore and discover. Using and developing the fakemon is part of that.

As for events, nothing is very sleek at the moment. This will arrive, eventually.

Tiles. In an ideal world I would have tilers of the same quality as Garnet's or Helios' making unique tiles for the game. Unfortunately, it is just me and my lack of talent in this field means I have been using public tilesets by Alistair and CalisProjects so far, which are brilliant - just not unique. I will have to tile myself at points - the pyramids, ski resort etc. - but what I really need is someone who can sit down and make some stunning tiles.

Thanks for taking the time to formulate and type such an in-depth response. That's how I improve the game. :cer_smile:


I agree that the world he created is "Awesome", but the one thing that bugs me about this fantastic game is that you need some really, really good tiles to pull off the atmosphere you are attempting to create. I mean, your tiles atm are subpar, and really can't create a game players can immerse themselves in, (none of which is your fault).
If you can find a skilled tile artist, this game will definetly have my respect, Cynic.

Unfortunately that is the project's Achille's Heel. I am going to try my best to grab the attension of possible tile-spriters through Pokecommunity and Deviantart in order to get more unique tiles. I can make tiles myself, and will have to eventually; I'm just not very good at it. :cer_smile:

The Elite 4 are at Ascension Castle.


I dislike the idea of so may HM's. "Ride" would just be a natural feature.

Thanks for making a suggestion, but stats abilities etc. have already been decided. Trust me, you will not be disapointed.

And yes, you can ride Kyusak. :cer_wink: They're a bit rare though.


Nice! But, not to offense you, didn't you get the Fonts folder? You are currently using the ARIAL font in your game and doesn't look good in it. Anyway, It is SUPER BRILLIANT! The fakemon were good!

The whole game will be made more sleek prior to any release. Don't worry. :cer_wink:

I can't believe I haven't seen this tread. Your fakemon and maps are amazing. Keep it up, I really like the storyline. Do you still need another additional fakemon spriter? :D

So long as your spriting style is coherent with what we already have then sure. Could you PM some examples? :cer_smile:

Just wanted to point out Cynic, 'Chronicles' is misspelled on the support banners. xD So you might want to get Samuraigun to fix them.

Thanks, I'll notify him.

Wow, I'm pretty impressed by all this. I'd use the map made by you, I think it might be the darker routes but it looks cool :D

I liked his game.
It has good graphics, like much of fakemons too.
Change the mini sprite. And the Pokemon Center and Mart, they do not match the other tiles.
Just some suggestions ^^
Good luck! I hope to see more updates.

Have I posted in this thread before? I don't think so. Anyway on that last update-post-guy-thing I am definitely in favor of the map style on the left. It just seems much more vibrant and makes more geographical sense, it doesn't hurt that I absolutely loathe the HGSS style of region map, with its random giant icons to represent things...

The map on the left is much more appealing. The right side map is just very bland overall. I've bookmarked this page to keep up with the updates. Hopefully you can find a good tiler. Psyched for the eventual release.
