I think the most crucial factor would be length. Entire adventures typically take months or years to make, so the length of a game made in a game jam would have to be a lot shorter. For example, one game could be just infiltrating Team Rocket's base, for lack of a more creative scenario. I...

As a guy whose non-profit pokemon fan game received a C&D, it's definitely possible.

I have. Many are featured on my personal site if you're curious.

Sadly, Pokemon Evoas has been taken down by Nintendo. Read more here: http://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonEvoas/comments/2278q8/pokemon_evoas_has_been_shut_down_by_nintendo/

Thanks, this move took a while to get right! Suplex and Jigglypuff's new look were inspired by the smash bros. series.

I've been making several new moves for Pokemon Evoas, but this is my favorite so far: Suplex! A basic fighting type move. Also Jigglypuff is now Normal-Fighting, as shown by the bandanna.

Well I did some Google searching for you and this is what I found: 1. Writing to a text file: ofstream myfile; myfile.open ("fileName.txt"); myfile << title << " " << bookNumber << " " << author << '\n'; myfile.close(); 2. Editing a text file is trickier than programs like Notepad would have...

I wrote my own engine for Evoas in ActionScript 3. I chose AS3 just because that was the language I was most proficient at. I wanted to make a truly different fan game, with a new battle system, so I decided to make the engine from scratch. It was quite challenging, to say the least... The...

I'd rather not. Movement in Evoas is freer, and not bounded to a grid. If the buildings were smaller, precise actions like entering buildings would be needlessly tricky.

Do we have some Skyward Sword-esque flying going on? What a great idea! This could be a great way to find new areas, but I hope the instantaneous fly option is still there too.

Right now I'm finishing up maps for a town and a large cave. Also coded the classic rock-pushing puzzle mechanic into Evoas' custom engine, while thinking of new ways to use it. Soon I'll start working on Evoas' first "dungeon", full trainers that use pokemon of one or two types, puzzles, a...

Thymborough Town Maps for all the buildings have been made too. Just need to give the NPC's something to say!

Looking quite slick so far. Not sure how I feel about the selection animation though, it might get irritating, especially if next to other images in the entities tab. Nothing wrong with a box lol

Question for the pros: what's the best way to go about making a cliff? I want to have a ledge that appears high above ground below, possibly with a sunset/sunrise in the background. But I'm stuck on how to implement it. Here's what I've got so far: What should the blue space be? Ground...

The new interface and mechanics look promising, but the game can still use a lot of work and polish. Fix up the text grammar, and make sure you put 1 or 2 spaces after the period in a sentence. Neat, the game I'm working on focuses on Meloetta too. How is she involved in Pokemon Melody's story?
