[Hack of the Year 2008] Pokémon: rijonAdventures

[Luck]

green.
Even though i like blue more, originality counts in this.
Green lacks a strange pattern but blue is just normal and plain.
and about the question, i was asking whether items would randomly appear on panning creek like treasure beach.
sorry if you knew that, i just didn't understand what you were saying.

[Gerri Shin]

I'd say go with the green, It decreases the amount of 'Busy" from the shop and help to create a more relaxed atmosphere. I also like the layout of having the counter in the middle like shown in the screen. you could easily place a special character in behind the counter on the left side for events (like how in D/P the guy in green appears to give you things like the manaphy egg)

[Hiroshi Sotomura]

It's my wording at fault.

No, the stuff that floats in the river is always there.

[Signomi]

I'd say go with the green flooring, it appears to be more presentable and not as eye-catching as that of the blue flooring (which is a rather strong shade of blue, people are more likely to glance at that rather than the OW sprites.)

[zel 2.0]

Green floor, obviously. And not only because it's aesthetically more appealing, but also because it's always nice to mix tiles from many games (the blue would clearly say "hey, look, I'm a hack of FR!")

[Maruna]

Green for all prior reasons..

[Pinky Diaper]

I think the green floor is really cool because it seems right. It just looks 'right', just choose what you think.

[Ninja Caterpie]

Green. It looks more... originally different.
Blue seems a bit... eye-flooding
The green is different becauise of the yellowish lines in it

[Lady Berlitz]

Green would be more original, as the original FireRed, for some reason, chose blue as its main color for palettes, as most things I noticed are very blue. Also, LeafGreen never used green, so it would be a wise choice.

Therefore, since rijonAdventures' main color is green, you should choose green.

Oh, just to add a little suggestion to the green floor, you should make the green floor tiles look more like they are advanced. Maybe round the corners of each tile and then make the green fill in more, like how the blue looked in the past.

[SilentWing]

Yeah, go with the green, it really does add more of a unique feeling to the mart. The added originality is always a plus, too.

[Har D Har]

Blue. That is what looks better, in my opinion.

[Hiroshi Sotomura]

A lot of you seem to be going with green, so that's what I'm officially sticking with, then!

In other news, time to keep you all updated on something.

Azalea Town [teaser]
April 25th 2008

Not hard to guess where this is.

[Eeveon]

Hooray, Azalea Town!
Hm, what's a Sailor doing there?...
I wonder...

[destinedjagold]

lol... I can never tell if it's Azelea Town if it wasn't for that Slowpoke there.
So er.., nice! We'll be having a little tour in Johto, ei? Sweet!

Anyways, keep it up!

[Luck]

you are sticking with green...
you expected us to say green didn't you?
i'm guessing that is the part of johto that we can visit?
I honestly didn't know it was azelea until i saw the slowpoke and the closeness of the houses.
and there are people there that wasn't there before?
just a little Question to add to all of the other questions.
Will kurt the pokeball maker still be there?

The game takes place two decades since you'd have ever been able to meet him. He's in peace now. :x

Of note, I must degress - are there any ways you could actually identify Azalea Town, BESIDES the Slowpoke?[/font]

[Ripper]

I'm not a fan of the Green tiles. I don't think they bode well with the FR tiles. Is there anyway you could post a RS mart just so we can compare? I prefer classic Blue, it looks good and theres nothing IMO wrong with it. Also, loving the game!

[/Circa]

Well, the way I could tell it was Azelea town was by the design, and of course the colour choice for the houses. They give it that sought of feel, but I would of prefered purple or green . But the thing I like most is the balance, how you made all the pathways 3 tiles in width. Which is good. But the one thing I noticed about the screen is the fence next to the pc, I think hedges would look better, considering this one has way to much space and looks jumbled together.

But its an overall good .

Well, I knew it was Azalea Town... Maybe because of the position of the gym and the PC? I realised it was a slowpoke only because I realised it was Azalea... so no Slopoke isn't the only thing.

Suggestion taken. I've actually taken to using the long hedges as a theme to this town, so the end effect looks like this.

Ahaha, yeah. Go figures that you'd have to know the town layout too. XD

[Ripper]

Looks... like Azelea Twon No noticeable differences other than the people, but considering the 10 years difference it would be awkward if it was the same people

[iPredator]

HOw far can you get in the game?

[Hiroshi Sotomura]

In the copy I have, there are too many ends (Azalea Town, and some part of South Rijon I forget). In the public beta, the game ends at the city with the third gym (though you'll be able to get through to the fourth and sixth gyms).

[Pinky Diaper]

Azelia town looks realistic, but I wouldn't be suprised to see new people move in there.

[Luck]

hmm...
since kurt is "in peace" will there be someone else there who has a special event?
I'm trying to get enough information so i'll know what to expect.
and is there going to be slowpoke well there or will something, like a cave- in, to cause the cave to be destroyed(along with some slowpoke)?
And is the gym leader of azelea(was it bugsy?) still going to be there or will his son or daughter take over?
Or will the gym just be closed due to something?
sorry for all these questions but i'm a really curious kind of person.
and there should be new people since it IS 2 decades in the future.
Perhaps a cooltrainer who used to be a kid in the G/S?C times be there?
