[Released] Pokémon XENOTIME

[pikarich]

Nice update! Lovin the screens.
As for my contest, I don't really like any of the suggestions, 'cept for Sand Palm, so keep the suggestions coming guys. I'll pick a winner soon. Hopefully we'll have regular contests to decide stuff. We can't do it all ourselves!

 

[KingCharizard]

We can't do it all ourselves!

Sure you could... And who exactly is creating this game? You or peeky?

 

[pikarich]

It's Peeky, but I'm second-in-command and head of storyline. What I meant was, we need all the help we can get from you guys!

 

[KingCharizard]

oh its not a problem, I just wasn't sure who was running the project... I'll help if I can. I might just be good for idea as most of time is taken up working on my project.

 

[shadowtogepi]

Hydro town?
I'm going to come up with more and more ideas, till its done

 

[pikarich]

I had the ideas Iono Town, Strato Town, Tropo Town, Meso Town and Aurora Town based on layers of the Earth's atmosphere. Whaddaya think?

 

[Glitchfinder]

Well, this thread has given me a mixed opinion. On the one hand, it looks like some attempts were made to provide a quality, fun game for us to enjoy. On the other, it appears that some of those attempts were failures. While you do use well made tilesets adapted from the DS games, and several well-designed custom images, there are occasional problems. For example, many of the custom tiles are fully 2D, and would appear much better in a GBA setting than alongside tiles from Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum. Add to that the fact that you're overdoing things by including more regions than you need to, and you have a potentially difficult time ahead of you, building the game.

On the other hand, it looks like some real thought went into this game, which is a rarity with RMXP games these days. It also looks like you have put a lot of work into the game, and that quite a bit of that work has payed off.

All in all, good job. There are areas where the game looks like it could be improved, but it also looks like it will provide a unique, enjoyable experience, when it is completed.

 

[pikarich]

Thank you! It's very important to hear constructive criticism, we are doing our best to improve maps and tiles to make the best Pokemon game ever and stay tuned for the demo.
New town name ideas: Ozona, Haemogloba, Vendetta, Gehenna and Gematria.

 

[shadowtogepi]

I had the ideas Iono Town, Strato Town, Tropo Town, Meso Town and Aurora Town

Iono, Strato, Meso and Tropo aren't really what I would think, however, aurora town might work, if you have something like a suicune shrine, or suicune lives in the water to the south, or something like that

 

[pikarich]

Yeah, Aurora was the only one Peeky liked. It's the current leader, please submit your entries by, hmm, let's say 9pm on Easter Sunday please. We're still open to suggestions, so please give ideas. Winner is that name and possibly a role in the game. I'm gonna work on the gym leaders' 'mon.

 

[shadowtogepi]

i'd say keep aurora, but give a legend about suicune in the town. I have posted ideas, and none of mine work, so auroras the one i'm backing

Also, what are the gym leaders types? I would like to know.

Update:
Revamped all screens!

​

That's about two months work there. Hover over each to get info. I've taken Mrchewy's advice and changed the opacity of the clouds quite a bit. He's right, they look much better now.

Map:

​

I've taken some of Wichu's advice on the map and added a connection between Kindlewood town and the Rock gym town.

Home Town name competition winner:
And the winner is... pikarich! Yes, pikarich, who actually set up the comp had the best idea, Aurora town!

Update on demo:
I have been eventing a lot more, but sadly since I keep revamping what's already there, it's going to take a long while untill the demo is released. Still a couple of months probably.

I'll reply to the quotes tommorow, I don't have enough time right now.

 

[KingCharizard]

Nice update, but why do the buildings look so square now?

 

[shadowtogepi]

so, aurora town is the best, well done.
How far have you got? It looks like it's turning out well.

 

[thelaytonmobile]

Cool new screens, I especially like the day/night one.
And yeah Peeky Chew I meant like route and town maps, I'll try and get an example if those kinda maps are what you need.
Keep up the awesome work on this!

PS: What's with the blue foliage? Seems kinda wierd to me. Is it a feature in the game or something?

Another thing, I think you still need to add more connections on that region map. I know that the player will be able to fly at some point, but it's nice to be able to walk.

 

[countryemo]

So my first comment here.
I was gonna say "PalmBeach Town" But due to not being able to log in. (im on a cell now,comp dont work.)

This game looks really nice, and fun too play. Great work, and keep up the progress. Good luck.

*update*
NEW STORYLINE COMP

Now we need a name for the small village on top of Mt Kindle. It has ash falling contstantly on it and for those of you who remember Boyleland from Pokemon Ranger 2, it'll be kinda like that. Contest runs from now till this Friday, April 9th, 9:00pm GMT. Winner will get their idea as the town, and possibly a little role in the game...

Answers to storyline questions;

countryemo-Nice idea, too bad the competition's over! xD
thelaytonmobile-The blue stuff is to do with a storyline thing we're not ready to disclose yet. More information coming soon! And we're working on the map, something tells there's an unbalance of towns to gyms, but more info soon.
shadowtogepi-We're doing very well, just check out the front page with the cool load bars.

Also, I'm gonna be doing regular updates of my own to do with the story, kinda like this one. Remember I always need fresh ideas for the story of this game, and rest assured, there will be more than in any other Pokemon game to date. I would use Twitter, but it's Peeky's account, so...

 

[nimmy23]

EmberThorn Town, that could be the name

 

[shadowtogepi]

Multiple ideas for Mt kindles town:
Crater village, Mt kindle square, Kindletop village, kindletop, vulcan village, lavaspark village, Peak village, Lavasteam village.
I might have taken some ideas from other games accidentaley. if so, oops, and sorry.

 

[Karel_Kazuki]

Ashflow, Singetop, Burntip,Charfall,Lavaiathan(I was bored XP ) ,or just a SIMPLE kindle village, named after the mountain,Charain....just from 5 minutes of thinking...
