Pokémon Acanthite – The GSC Prequel

if you want to be involved in character development, you should go to their forum board. i do warn you though, they are stern about top-notch involvement.

... which that certainly ain't.

And a point of advice. If you're gonna submit ideas, at least make sure that they're your own ones, and not the work of others.

i can't get it out of the picture but it's an idea
EDIT: heres another
hmm.... maybe Granbir http://www.ffudvd.com/images/bromides/set5/art11.jpg
and maybe an idea for a pre evo
No name yet.. http://static.animexx.de/fanart02/fa...22/611345.jpeg

Mind if I point out some problems?

It's not an alternate Torchic evo, it's a Combusken wearing ninja-based items of clothing. It was also drawn by my old faking buddy Kairyu so I have no idea why you're giving me permission to use it.

Granbir? That's a chocobo from Final Fantasy?

Please submit your own work and don't steal.

And the last thing you posted, I dunno what it is but it ain't brilliant by any stretch of the imagination.

It last one looks like an off coloured Taillow.

What sort of endings are you going to add?

[ZeroArmada]

I really admire your work Fangking, no doubt you and your team took game development to a whole new level. I tried to create a G/S/C remake awhile back, but it took alot of effort, more than enough to handle. You guys a VERY determind which makes this possibly one of the best fan-generated games in exsistance. Hopefully you finish this, there were alot of games that came and went (CoL, Light, ect) but this is the only one that has stood strong the whole way.

This continues to be one of the best games I've seen around.

*copy some ideas for my own game*

hahah

joking
keep coming more and more pictures =)

Sweet. You bet I will be pressing the refresh button tomorrow.

By the way, Acanthite is looking greater than ever, Fangking. Keep up the great work!

Can you gurantee it?
Bet your legs on it, or else :o
I've heard of "demo within next 24 hours" And a year later.

I`ve checked the first post twice and still don`t know what Pokemon Acanthine is made with?

[The Dash]

I belive it's RM2k3 due to the screenshot sizes.

[Plateface]

LOL ARE YOU SERIOUS? A demo? Well, you have shown all these noobs the power of the Fang Side.

You'll all be happy soon. :D

I'm quite sure the games made in Rmxp

[Fangking Omega]

RMXP is correct.


Here it is people!

It's an encrypted RMXP file. You can't edit the thing.



Be warned, if your PC is old and has low hardware, you may experience a lot of lag. This game is best played on newer PCs



INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE PLAYING!!!

You must install the FONTS. When you extract and install the files package, there's a folder entitled "FONTS" in there.

If you know how to install fonts, skip this bit.

Go to Control Panel and open Fonts. Either drag and drop the files from Acanthite's FONTS folder into there, or use the file menu's Install New Font feature and locate the place where the fonts are. You're primarily interested in the Pokemon RS font and the Digital Dream font.

If you DON'T install the fonts, you won't see any text.


The game is far from perfect. This demo is an introduction to Pokémon Acanthite for prospective players. At this moment in time, there are only Wild Battles, and Trainer battles function exactly like Wild Battles (Meaning you can catch their Pokémon and run from battle). Switching in battle is disabled, and levelling up does not work (don't worry, this shouldn't be an issue for this demo). There are minor graphical imperfections. There MAY be some unknown and unforseen errors, and they're more likely to occur while battling. If you're having major troubles, you're able to escape from any battle.

Please don't complain that music doesn't change for battles XD

The game does include an introduction to the storyline, your starter Pokémon of choice, a preview of things such as the Pokégear and battle system, a fair chunk of the first part of the game to explore (three towns, three routes, and a big forest), there's a couple of items, mostly for healing though, and working berry plants that function like GSC's. There is weather and time including morning, day, evening and night.

Hopefully you'll enjoy this snapshot of what Acanthite is about!


AND HERE'S THE LINK

EDIT:
This is a release with a few corrections and slightly less glitches! Please download this one.

Remember to install the fonts! Or you won't see any of the text!



If you get any major errors, please let me know.

Finally the beta! I'm doing some other things right now so I can't really try it out yet, but I'll try it out later and come back with a little report.

[Fangking Omega]

Just as a heads up to everybody, you apparently DO need RMXP installed on your system. The trial version will do, even if your trial's expired.

[Samson]

when i try to start the game, i get the following error:

"RGSS-RTP Standard not found."

i tried activation the rgss file manually with the game file, but this doesn't seem to work as well.

Anybody who's getting this message needs to install the trial version of RMXP. It's free, and even when the trial expires after 30 days you can play RMXP games still.

Be warned, slow internet users, it's about 30mb

[Legendaries]

Demo is FANTASTIC! You all are the best! I will wait for next demo and next and next and finnaly for full version forever! Good luck.

[The Dash]

Haha wow, this game really does look good. One of the most original I've seen in a good while. It's a nice break.
Here is a mirror of the Beta on my server : http://dasheo.com/downloads/Acanthite0.1.4.zip

[ZeroArmada]

Haha, for some reason my demo wasnt encrypted... so I did you a favor a modified it a bit, this version of fanking's demo DOES NOT require RMXP to be installed. As a result of that I had to import the rtp files making it a bit bigger (15 megs more... xD) I aplogize fangking for not asking for permission.
