DrawnToast · Mar 3, 2019

Pokémon: The Light in Our Hearts
The Light in Our Hearts is a story that follows the adventure of you and Alexa, your partner, as you travel through the Tentin Region, four years after the events of Tentin Redux.
Through your journey, you two will eventually discover what makes you special.
The lights in both of your hearts, shining through darkness and light.
(Important note: This is an updated version of my older fan game, Return to Tentin.)

Tools I used

Hey. So I started playing this game a few days ago and I was enjoying it despite some bugs - when I started I couldn't see some sprites like the mom's and the evil team's, they are invisible but you can still interact with them. I could still play the game but I've run into a game-breaking bug - *spoiler alert* when I try to get the first item of the Ludicolo quest in the Shore Town Mart, the game crashes when trying to implement the fisherman's wishiwashi's ability. Can you help me? Thanks

The game looks great, how long is this game? How many badges?

The game is about 7 hours long, I'd say. If you played at a normal pace. There are 8 badges in the game, like you'd normally see.

Thanks for playing and finding these bugs. I'll look more into this bug. If you are playing version 1.0, I did release a new update yesterday. If that isn't downloaded, see if that fixes the problem. But I'l fix the other bugs and release a quick update today!

Hi. So I got the 7 March Update version and am no longer stuck at the fisherman. Thanks for the advice.
Edit: I've just gotten to the fire gym and it seems important (like all the pirates)/important-ish (e.g., a "festivalgoer Jake") NPCs' sprites tend to be invisible but you can still interact with them. It might just be because I didn't start a new save, maybe.

I just figured out the problem... I just forgot to put the 'graphics' folder in the game. Such a simple mistake. I'll reupload the file. Then it should work. I have no idea how I missed that.

_Eyolf · Mar 13, 2019

can you evolve trade evos such as kadabra and haunter without trading?

You can evolve Pikachu into Alolan Raichu by leveling it up in the Pokemon Resort, Grassy Path, Sunshine Path, or Terra Town.

There's no way to evolve those, as I didn't remember to fix those specific two. But all the others that would evolve by trade have ways to evolve, as for instance, Scyther evolves by simply using a Metal Coat on it. I'll have to change Kadabra and Haunter's.

Where do you get Riolu and Froakie? I played the first game and want to use my same team from that game. I already have 2/3 of my original team.

I tried the download link and worked fine. If you can, tell me more about this.
