    - Pokémon Bermuda -

    Hi guys, I thought I might as well post it here too
    I decided to share the progress of my game. I started in 2021 and continue to work on it regularly to this day.

    The game is far from finished but I would still like to take the opportunity to get opinions and feedback!

    Feel free to join my discord!

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Information about the game:

    • The game was made with Pokemon Essentials v19.1
    • The game takes place in the Bermuda region, which, as the name suggests, is based on the Bermuda Triangle. But that's not what the story of the demo will be about, simply because the story isn't there yet.
    • The demo covers the first 3 gyms and some banter afterwards
    • Some new evolutions and regional forms
    • The structure of the game progression is similar to other Pokemon games: defeating Gymleaders,
      fight evil team, become the strongest.
    • The antagonists are a powerful crime syndicate called Crimson Dawn.
      They have a lot of power within the region due to corruption, extortion, etc.
      However, you wont see much of Crimson Dawn in the demo; Their influence on the story comes later in the game

    Mechanics:
    • The game uses gen 8 mechanics,
    • As of now there are Pokemon from all gens (1-9) to find. It is important to mention that I do not plan to integrate the full national dex because there are simply too many Pokemon. I don't know how many Pokemon there will be in the regional dex at the end.
    • Speedup possible (Q on Keyborad, can be changed by pressing F1. You shouldn't use it permanently because it can mess up some events and cutscenes. It can also create performance issues)
    • HM items (HM attacks are no longer necessary and can be removed without Move-deleter).
    • Quest system to keep track of the main story and side quests.
    • Trade evolutions have been replaced by regular evolutions

    Possible bugs/errors that could occur:
    Because this is a one-man project, there will be some bugs or errors.
    • Since I'm not a native English speaker, some typos will probably appear. I've corrected all the ones I've seen, but I'm sure that there are stille some left.
    • Incorrect tiles
    • Performance issues, especially on weaker computers, but I think this is partly due to Pokemon Essentials. When you encouter performance issues you can try to restart the game.
    • Missing Overworld sprites for some events (I changed the names of some sprites to keep the naming of my files more consistent)
    • The overworld fishing sprite isnt showing.
    • The move sketch shows an error message, but the game doesn't crash (will be fixed)
    • You should save regularly to be safe in case the game crashes unexpectedly!
    Feel free to let me know if you find any of these or other problems.

    I also added a "wiki" for the game folder. It includes a copy of the Pokemon PBS file to quickly look up evolutions, moves etc, a list of item locations and a list of quests and their locations.

    I know 3 Gym is a lot for a demo but I didn't want to take anything away from the game.

    Download version 1.3 of the demo here, have fun:)
