WELCOME
Hello, my name is JokerBen. I was a member here a lot of years ago and fairly involved in the game development community here at PC. My old account can be found here. I recently became active again because I felt like I had something here that I started but never finished. I had a story for a Pokémon game and wanted to develop it and I did just that in 2013. I created "Adventures in Aloma". Though the tag reads "Complete", this game was far from it. The plot had holes, the graphics were sketchy, and it was buggy. After a couple years of sitting out from any sort of game development, I decided during the Summer that I would try to remake this game into a much better version with a more dynamic plot, beautiful graphics, and an overall appeal that cannot be denied. I oddly considered this project to be personal redemption from the previous failure of the project.
Yes, Pokémon Nobelium is an RMXP remake of Adventures in Aloma, though nearly everything has underwent a complete re-haul, with the exception of the absolute core story (and character names). It has a "teen" sort of mood to it, kind of bringing out some possible realistic aspects of a Pokémon game while maintaining the element of fantasy. The game doesn't have any inappropriate or "un-Pokémon" events in it. The game is just a little bit more intense than what you would normally find in Game Freak's games. It was a lot of fun designing this game and being able to experiment with the themes and tones I could use since my likely audience would probably be older.
TRAILER
Here is a trailer for Pokémon Nobelium. It has footage of gameplay and a general look at the story without spoilers.

THE ALOMA REGION
Geography:
Due to it's territorial extent over a large amount of land, Aloma is divided into two parts, Upper and Lower Aloma. Lower Aloma has the reputation of a mountainous and rough terrain, whereas Upper Aloma is favorable because of its relative flatness.

Pokémon:
A variety of Pokémon have migrated from several other regions to make their habitat in Aloma. Depending on the type of Pokémon, their home may be in Upper or Lower Aloma. There are also a small amount of powerful Pokémon that are suspected to roam all over Aloma.

The Pokémon League:
Aloma's Pokémon League governs all parts of Aloma kindly. Citizens are free to do what they wish, so long as it is not harmful to other people. People sometimes criticize Aloma's government for being too lenient. Many of Aloma's major cities have a Gym Leader that see over their areas and also take challenges from trainers who desire to test their strength. Aloma has sixteen Gym Leaders total for Upper and Lower Aloma.

The Significance:
As a player, you will find yourself buried in mysteries as you progress on your adventure. Some examples of that being an unexpected redemption arc for a franchise-favorite character and aiding Aloma officials in an investigation into the elusive Team Venom.

Warnings:
As always, there are some things to keep in mind. I would avoid snooping around in the Audio folder, as there are some track names that contain spoilers. I get it! The soundtrack is great but don't go pulling the files out of the audio folder until you've completed the game.

I look forward to discussing the game with you.
UPDATE 5/30/19: I am suspending all support for this project indefinitely due to my pursuit of other endeavors. However, the game is fully playable despite some minor bugs. I may pop in every once in awhile to check on things and offer some basic support. Thank you guys for everything. I really appreciate the support.
