Pokemon StarRed
Future of the romhack!
The game is cancelled.
But don't worry,I didn't end it completely.I'll restart (reboot if that sounds better)
the project from scratch.Because let's face it this hack was pretty mediocre nad very bad in general (at least that's what I think as the creator).
The assets are all going have a major update.
(Moving from Gen IV to Gen V art style and will include many design fixes that StarRed had in general)
The plot is going to be reworked!
It'll be actually a plot.I'll be consistent and will be a full story.
With less plotholes,confusion and edgyness.
The gameplay is going to be more polished and will work like an actual pokemon game. (And probably it'll be actually fun,also this game will have both a male and a female protagonist.something StarRed didn't have).
In general the reboot is not just going to be a reworked StarRed,it'll be something completely new! (Game thread soon)
This new game's name is Pokemon Saiph!

Now back to StarRed
Story
-Prologue-
The story is about a teen called...well let's call him Nate.He was living with his parents.
Important to know that Nate's father was one of the few scientists who were working on a new
type of energy,the "darklight".They made this energy with the power of Darkrai.One day Darkrai got
out of controll and destroyed the whole lab and killed all the scientists...Nate's father died as well.
No one really knew what happend.Because of this Nate started to look for clues in the destroyed lab.
There he found Darkrai himself.But well let's say Darkrai was a bit violent at that point and he attacked Nate.Darkrai knocked out Nate but instead of killing him,the shadow creature teleported him to the Sen Region.(Region of the game)

-The story in the present-
Nate woke up in an unknown area.What you can't even find on the regional town map.Anyway when he woke up,he didn't remember anything so he started to look for an exit from unknown place.He managed to find a small town...After that,he bumps into Shenow and his evil organization,Team Void.Their plan is to use use the project...But for what....(You know I don't want to spoil more so you can experience it by yourself :D)

Woah, this game looks good, i'm liking the tilesets so far and also why Gen 4-5 Pokemon and Moves only? Why not include Gen 6?

Might wanna format the screenshots a little better. Looks pretty cool, though.

Oh, and how much play time would you say the demo has?
