This games looks very promising. I can't wait to play it!
P.s. I like the whole direct future thing with a decendent of Ahs's Pikachu and Blue/Gary being the new profesor.

 

[mrmoonbeam]

This looks like a really exciting hack, one of the better ones I've seen lately, I just hope you stick with it as it could really work! Can't wait for a download/beta/whatever.

Pretty neat hack. The storyline is a bit simple how it goes from a guy getting his Pokemon and then its like "Oh yeah and there is a guy who controls time." The tiles and OWs look very nice but the maps have a little to much empty space and if I do say so myself a little to square. I'd love to see where this goes. Good luck.

This game looks great
What attracted me mostly is the changed kanto region,I'm looking forward to these changes(hopefully you haven't copied off hg\ss)
Anyways,Good luck!

You can rest, i will not copied hg\ss maps, I will use some of the maps from gold\hg but they are just drafts. 90% of the maps are news with some parts that resemble the old ones.
Thanks.

Pretty much is that, but exists some things in the middle before the "Oh yeah and there is a guy who controls time".
About the empty space in the maps, i'm dealing with that. I like the square style...
Thanks.

Thanks for your support.

Well, now let's talk about updates:

In first place i will say that the alpha 0.5 it's very close to be released.
It will contain 3 citys(Pallet,Viridian and Pewter).
The alpha 0.5 will end in Pallet City.
This alpha 0.5 it's just a first look about this project and will have a gift in player item storage(5 luxury balls).

And for last i have been working in the last city of the alpha 0.5.
I insert the phone booth, one in each city.
Pallet change a lot like a said in the main post. I can say that thanks to the fame that Pallet gain, a large number of tourists go to Pallet to see the former champions. So Pallet is no more a Town, now is a City.
You can see more in the screenshots.
It's all for now.

Pretty cool looking hack but the first thing I saw what that weird HP bar...
Dunno about the others but I don't really like it... is it intentional?

And by the way, kyo, please stop spamming every thread you visit. ;) Double or in this case triple -posting is breaking the rules.
If you want to offer your help, message the creator directly.

 

[MrElephant]

Sounds like a pretty cool hack to play. I like the name that you chose. The thing that I really like is the map that you drew. I hope that map will be somewhere in the actual game.

 

[~Anbuja]

Nice looking hack, got still some things to improve though, like the HP bar, and i see some style clashes.

Also i really don't like the name =[

The name it's like the central word of this game, great part of the game the word legacy it can be detected, but in a indirect way.

Also i really don't like the name =[

Thanks for your criticism.
Definitely i have some things to improve and like you and Ash493 said one of them is the HP bar and yes there are some style that clashes and i will change some tiles.

Well, now let's talk about updates:

I've been working on the alpha 0.5 and i can now say a release date it will be between Wednesday and thursday.

I changed the first post a couple days ago and i will put some new screenshots and update old, the only thing left in the first post will be the CSS.

I will now present the characters in the alpha 0.5:

Professor Blue Oak: Recently it replaced his grandfather, as the professor of the Kanto region. Decides to live in Viridian City near the house of the Hero. Like always he continues with the same conviced attitude.

Tom: A pokémon trainer that decide to make a pokemon journey around Kanto, it will become a trusted ally.

Alexis: She's will be other trusted ally that the here found in is way and Blue is her uncle.

Secondary characters:

Mr.Oak: After he quit the position of Kanto pokemon professor, he continues to work on pokemon research and help his grandson.

Updates

I've been working in the insertion of new tiles(grass, trees,water), it's a mix of Alistair tiles and Wesleyfg tiles.

Well i can say too that the beta 1 will end in Cerulean city.
I've working on the mapping of route 3 and 4, Mt.Moon and Cerulean City.

My to-do list is the following:
Legend: Done Not done
Map:
Route 3;
Route 4;
Mt.Moon;
Cerulean City;
Inserted the definitive tiles to pokemon legacy(tileset 1):
Grass tiles;
Water tiles;
Tree tiles;
Pokecenter and Gym tiles(Outside);

Oh... and annouce the creation of Pokemon Legacy DLC: Luke Stories.

This is a DLC(like a short hack) with a few hours of playing that tells the story of the new Viridian gym leader, Luke.
The DLC will be off before the beta 1 and is passed in a island near of Kanto, the Sage Island.
It will be the first apparition of the Kanto Champion.

Just stopped by to say that while playing the alpha if you run your character becomes a glitch mix of colors other than that all's good.

Thank you for reporting this. I knew about this is glitch, i messed up with the OW of the hero. It's a thing that i have to do when i finished what i planned.
Any way i will put this in the bugs.

It's a ips file, you have to patch a clean firered rom.
I will put what you have to do in the FQA.
