Hi,

I am thinking about a new Pokémon Game since several month (actually I've had a similar Idea last year). When I played the first Pokémon Games I had a feeling that some Pokémon Veterans might know. It's the feeling that comes up, when you're playing a simple game, that does make lots of fun, because it is not difficult but does open lots of possibilities. The first generations gave you tons of things you could do, even though it sometimes got a bit boring to do the same stuff over and over again.
Every time I bought new Pokémon Games, I missed this feeling. The newest game I bought was Firered. I tried the newer games out at my friends' places but they just didn't give me the feeling I've been searching for. My aim is to create a Pokémon game that does unite modern possibilities with old goods. Therefore I need a group of people who would like to work with me.


Some facts about my Idea:
- I want to unite Johto, Kanto, Hoenn, Sinnoh in one game, enlarge the known areas and add new ones.

Spoiler:

The player shall not be finished, when he/she has some Pokémon at level 100. There shall be plenty of work to do. Aside of the main story plot, there should be side quests that do enlarge the game time a lot. To make rerolling attractive I want multiple main plots.
The four main-continents shall get two new companions. Additionally the old areas shall get new parts.

- I would love to see a multiplayer with multiple people running around in the actual game world, acting with each other and working together.

Spoiler:

It's fun to fight against other players, but it would be more fun to do more with them. Therefore a new kind of multiplayer would be needed: An open-world-multiplayer familiar to modern MMORPGs.

- I want the Pokémon to get more important out of fights (Therefore I do have several ideas).

Spoiler:

Why does the hero use a bike? He does have Pokémon! To raise the Pokémon's "reputation" I want new abilities like "riding" or "jumping". Additionally I want the abilities to be "leveled", so that there are "slow riding", "riding" and "fast riding" (just examples). The different abilities and levels of abilities shall unlock new possibilities in game.
I want the player to be able to release his Pokémon, so that they follow him around. Not just one Pokémon! Why not release all of them at once in a park? Wouldn't it be more fun?

- I do not know if my ideas are NDS conform. It could be possible that it will only be for PC.

Spoiler:

This might shock lots of people reading this but I am no fan of Nintendos politics, which do make the Pokémon fan buy new generations of Gameboys all the time. Plus no Gameboy or Nintedo DS has the same capacities a PC has.

- I do NOT plan on doing any rom-hacking. Everything in the game shall be made by the team itself.

Spoiler:

Rom-hacking might do fun and so on but practicing rom-hacking does set limits. When coding everything it is possible to erase those limits.

- I do not want any influence of Black and White.

Spoiler:

Lots of people do like the new generation. I don't. It might be because I hate the way Nintendo does try to implement the new 3D technology but the old 4 are a unit for me and I the new ones just don't fit in this unit.

- I do not plan on using the new 3D-possibilitys. I would prefer a new multi-layered 2D-Engine with some new features.

Spoiler:

3D is fine as long as you do have stuff to use it for. Pokémon was fine without and it will be fine without. There are lots of things you can to with good 2D-Engines so why not use these instead? Rotating cameras and so on don't fit in my thinking about Pokémon.

What do I need?
It's obvious that I do need people for my project who are willing to work lots. I do need all varieties of people. Storywriters, Mappers, Spriters, Coders and so on. For me, the most important is not the skill but the fantasy of everyone in the team. I do not need people that just follow orders. For me new ideas are as important as my own.


I hope I've been able to wake up some peoples interest. Everyone that might be interested in joining my team and working with me, just send me a PM. If there are any questions I am willed to answer them via PM or (if necessary) via ICQ or Skype.

[KittenCry66]

Team name: Pokemon: League of Honesty Staff
Team Leader: KittenCry66
Current Members: None
Current Game title: Pokemon: League of Honesty
Current progress made: Scripts and Professor's Speech made.
Position(s) needed: Fakemon, Trainers and OW Spriters, Music Rippers, Co-Devoloper, Writers and Demo Testers. Region Map-Makers
Timezone: Eh, Work on It In Your Own Time
Preferred Method of contact: PM
Additional info: Uses Poccil's Pokemon Essentials.

NOTE TO REGION MAP-MAKERS AND FAKEMON/TRAINER SPRITERS:
I Will Provide Reference For These, Which You Work Off.

 

[Pablo49]

Team name:
NotJustBagels

Team Leader:
Pablo49

Current members:
None belong to PC, minus myself.

Game Title:
Since this is a privately developed game, the name is undisclosed until release.

Game Progress:
Maps 50% Script editing 50% (I can't speak for story because it isn't my job.)

Timezone:
EST if you want to contact me. But others are different. Timezone doesn' matter for your application.

Open positions:
Fakemon Spriter.

Prefered Method of Contact:
My Windows Live Messenger account ([email protected]) or my email ([email protected]) I will rarely check my PM's here, so it is probably best not to send a PM.

Position requirements:
When you apply, link me, or send me a fakemon or a redrawn Pokemon you've made before. It doesn't have to be all the views needed for the game, just one view will do, just to make sure you actually do what you say you can.
You also need to be willing to install Dropbox. (I would link you, but the forum won't allow me yet. A quick google search will bring it right up.) It's free and safe, no worries. This is what our team uses to share subversion and dev files.

Additional info:
Poccil's Pokemon Essentials is the base.
Because this is game is primarily independent of PokeCommunity, not much information is going to come out until release, which will include a release thread here. But it does have an aspect different from most fan games.
For the most part, you, the spriter, will have a very open task. Names for all of the Pokemon will be provided, and some will include some general notes on them, like the starters, legendary etc. But for the most part, your mind can run wild. Also because of the nature of this project, there will be some interesting and fun differences between these Pokemon and Pokemon in other games. After you are apart of the team, I'll fill you in on all the details.
You'll also have access to the subversions of this game..

[NikNaks]

Recruiting for a new project
Team leader: NikNaks
Current Members: Me; Florio; Java's Missingno
Working title: None
Current progress: Early design process
Positions needed: Any, really. If you're a complete novice or an experienced dev, I don't mind, so long as you're patient, have a good temperament and a sense of humour. If you've worked with me before, feel free to contact me again. ^_^
Timezone: Any; I'm running GMT
Contact: PM me or add me on MSN, but if you add me, obviously don't forget tell me who you are xD
Additional info: Visit the thread for details about the game. Essentially, it's Pokémon, but set in modern-day Russia, with the same issues of tension, poverty and an underlying feeling of distrust in the political system. We'll be building in Unity, but if you've never used it, don't let that put you off - I've never used it either, so it'll be a learning experience for both of us.

Timezone: EST
Preferred method of contact: Pokecommunity. PM me if you wish.
Examples of work: I really dont have any uploaded examples. Sorry.
Additional Info:I was here before. The last team I was part of was closed down by the leader. After at least a year from PC, I wish to find a team I can help out on.

I work usually on region maps, overworld maps, and battle animations. :D

If you ask me to do something out of my area of abilities, then you'd probably get a result that gets a 2/10 quality. XD

 

[Ęℓαчиıı]

Team Name: IronFist
Team Members: Ęℓαчиıı, Dewitty, CrazyNinjaGuy, Red-Gyrados, Martyr, and cyberskeleton

Current Progress: Beginning stages of the game. All has been evented up until the first Gym; Gym Leader has also been created and evented but not sprited.

Position(s) Needed

Spriters and OverWorld Artists
I am in need of experienced spriters or anyone with a very good ability to sprite the following:

• Fakémon which include front and back sprites and their icons.
• An Overworld Artist for 'important' trainers (Gym Leaders, Elite Four, Champion, etc..) and specific Fakémon (in HeartGold/SoulSilver style).

An Experienced Mapper

I can handle most of the mapping myself, but, a skilled mapper would defiently decrease my workload. It's a plus if you're skilled in mapping large areas such as forests and good with interiors.

Thread: Here
If you're interested, send a private message my way. Proof of work is essential and you will be ignored if you fail to provide a sufficent enough example.

Preferred Method of Contact: MSN. I'll give you my contact name once you've been accepted. Otherwise, contact me via private message.

Additional Information: I am extremely indecisive, so, bare with me. With that said, I just want to say that I'm doing the best I can to make this game spectacular, so, I want my team doing the same thing. I don't expect perfection, but, I'd like to see some effort.. That's all I ask.

 

[Wingedkuri]

▷ ▷ Free Agent looking for work ░░▒▓██

Area looking for work
I work on multiple fields, but I'm more skilled towards designing and spriting characters and creatures of many sorts (Fakemon), maps, animations, and helping out with storyline/quests. I am however no coder, sorry! In the near future I'll be able to make music.

Timezone
Pacific Standard Time (PST) Timezone only matters on school days, haha.

Preferred method of contact
Private message here would be fine.

Examples of work
I'll admit I only have traditional artwork with me since I only have one pixel Fakemon on this computer (and it's not my best), but if you give me something to sprite I'll be more than happy to do what you instruct for an example. Don't be afraid to contact me.

Additional Info
I have never been on a team before besides my independent project, but I hope to find people who are as enthusiastic and excited about game development process as I am. I am dedicated and have a lot of patience, as it would break my heart to see any of these great projects discontinue.

[Chao-der!]

SPRITER/MUSIC/BETA TESTER!

The Chao is Here...

If you are reading this, I assume you are looking for workers. I am happy to be a Spritist or CRY/SMALL SOUND BITES worker, although I have a knack for finding glitches (Found LOADS in Super Mario Galaxy 2) so a Beta Tester would be an option. If you want me, VM/PM me, or email at [email protected].

Thanks for reading.
