I've played a Touhoumon game yeaars ago and it was really, really addicting. Fell out of hacks in general later on though but we have so many here to keep people busy. n_n; Welcome!
Since you're working on your own game you should definitely explore all that the ROM Hacking section has to offer. It's a large place with some very extensive resources including tutorials, mods, help threads, scripting assistance, and myriads of other things. I've no knowledge in that department but you're sure to find all the help you need. ;P Have you made your own games before or is this your first time dabbling in it?
Enjoy your stay around PokeCommunity! Be sure to let our fantastic staff know if you need anything.
