I really like this,
The story is sollid, seems very adventureous, and also very good. I aslo like how it starts, its different, and it kind of takes the player into the game, instead of introducing, if you know what I mean.
The maps seem good, not to empty, not to full. Some building tiles seem a bit low-quality, but then again. Many custom tiles are bad, so compared to most tiles, they're pretty good. I think acceptable, would be a correct word of approval.
I also like the light shining affect, it gives this game its own special touoch. Though I fear it may get in the player way after a while. If your playing the game for a long time, llike most people do when they play Pokémon games, the light may get annoying. But then again, I don't know; it may just become normal to see that after playing it over and over again, and will become unoticable to the average, and recurring player.
I like the title screen by the way. But I feel as though it's missing something... But I can;'t put my finger on it.
Overall, I'd give this an 8/10. Story seems great, custom tiles are acceptable, and it seems very fun to play. Great job, really great. I will be keeping track of this, and watching the thread as well.
Wish you the best of luck Atomic, and as well as your team,
