    Pokémon Tabula Rasa, inspired by Reborn and Insurgence, is a story-driven fangame with 2 brand new regions!

    Showcase2.png
    Story
    Before the events of Tabula Rasa, the main protagonist and their rival travel to a distant region while their home region's Pokemon League is being developed. When they discover that this new region doesn't have a current champion, the protagonist and the rival decide to battle each other for the crown. During the battle, the protagonist is finally "beaten" via an intentional hit which causes them to go into a severe coma. Years later, the protagonist wakes up from their coma and realizes that they've been taken in by Professor Oleaster and his apprentice, your rival. After some encouragement, the rival gets the protagonist to become a trainer once again to travel across the brand new Pokemon League in their home region that spans across both Anphelio and Pansperma

    Plans for the game
    - Fully custom OST
    - Custom Battle Backgrounds
    - New Evolution Gimmick
    - OPTIONAL* 12 Gym Challenge (4 in Anphelio, 8 in Pansperma)
    - Custom Anphelion and Panspermanian regional variants for over 150+ Pokémon
    - Unique Idle Animations for Each Character Choice
    - Brand New Fakemon
    - 3 New Legendaries
    - Seasons Mechanic
    - Secret Bases/Houses
    - Stealth Sections
    - Expansive postgame

    We are currently working hard on this game and would love some extra, decently-to-very devoted reinforcement in the following roles:
    - Spriters (All are in a GEN 4/5 STYLE)
    Spriters are very diverse so I will break it down into the following categories:

    Trainers

    - Trainer Sprites, Overworlds, Vs. Mugshots, etc.

    Pokemon

    - Sprite/design (come up with) Regional Forms, Cut-Off (Not full body) Backsprites, some Overworlds, Icons, etc.

    Tiles

    - Tiles/tilesets in a (Gen 4/5 style) for everything ranging from Routes and cities to the Elite Four rooms. These must be made with the RPG Maker format in mind (32x32)
    - If you don't know what kind of style I am talking about, please message me for a better understanding

    Item Icons
    - Sprite icons for items ranging from new Poke balls to HM Items and Mega Stones

    UI

    - New UI, including but not limited to, Pokedex, Pause Menu, Pokemon Storage Box, and Minigames

    Large-Scale Pixel Art

    - Pixel Art for the title screen, credit images, battle backgrounds, promotional art, etc.
    Composers
    - Compose custom tracks for Towns/Cities, POIs, Routes/Caves, Encounter/Character Themes, Battle and Victory Themes, Sound Effects, and Remasters of old tracks

    - Must also have the ability to make tracks using Gen 4/5 Soundfonts those of which I can provide
    Ruby Scripters
    - Scripters are tasked with coding new features, menus/UI, ability/move codes, adapting old scripts for new versions of Essentials, etc

    - Scripters must be experienced in Ruby scripting
    Artists
    - Artists will make concepts for Pokemon, items, trainers, and so forth

    - They can also make storyboards for stuff like intros, cutscenes, promotional videos, etc

    Bump: A little update on recruitment. We are still looking for another composer to make the game's soundtrack/sound effects. We are using a mix of Pokemon soundfonts, but mainly Gen 4 DPPT soundfonts for our game. The second composer will also be working with our main composer, helping each other out with suggestions and other overall comments on their compositions. Most of our other positions are filled at the moment, but we are still taking community help. If anyone is interested, please contact me in any way through our email, discord, or twitter. Thank you for all the interest and kind remarks and we will have a status update coming soon!
