    OK, this is a pretty basic hack that has just been kicked off. There's not much to show to this date, but I need help.


    ==The Myth of Apoco==

    There are 3 sacred spires of rock throughout the Apoco region, embedded deep within the earth. Should the suffering of this dimension become too saveer, it is said the Original One shall awaken these towers from their deep slumber to bring upon us the end of the Universe.


    People have tried awakening these spires on many occasions when times have been bad. Many tried - many failed.

    "There is a good side to this myth, though. As Arceus is forever watching us, this myth is almost as if it's a message from the Original One himself. We are living in times of peace, so be grateful. We must not abuse this privilege."


    ==The Plot==

    You're a young adolescent enjoying the sweet life of the Apoco region, until suddenly, and quite rudely, you are forced to work under the order of Officer Blunt (the "Professor" of the game), your neighbour that makes you somewhat suspicious of what he gets up to. Well, like all new scouts of Mr. Blunt's organisation of agents (a cool, catchy and formal name of this organisation should be on it's way), you need a trusted pokemon compainion for your journeys. The adventure has only just started.

    One day, a new Mayor is elected. Him and his cabinet smell a bit (yes, each region has it's own cabinet)... fishy - to Officer Blunt. They belong to no major party and how they won so many votes is unknown. As you are a reasonable rank within the Organisation, you are sent on a mission to investigate in what this new Government are really up to, and believe me, the sight isn't very pretty...

    From this point, the main story begins. You are sent on a 24 hour pursuit to chase down these mad-men, and sent spinning into a fresh, brand new storyline. But the question is... can you keep up? :P




    Jobs needed to be done (volunteers please. This will be updated throughout the development of the hack, depending on what I need doing)


    Spriters

    MIDI Converters (people that can convert MIDIs into *.S format, and then put them in the hack)

    Alpha Testers (yes, ALPHA testers. Usually this wouldn't be the case with most hacks, but I need to make sure everything's purrfect)


    Screenshots


    None to this date, though there will be some sneak peaks of the overworld map and sprites soon!

    I can be an alpha tester and could make banners, even though it's not on the list...

    Welcome on board ;D.

    And yes, banner making would indeed come in handy, thanks. I can PM you the character sprite and *the new pokemon to make an appearance in this hack*, so you can include them on the banner(s).




    The story plot has been given a huge update with "The Myth of Apoco". However, it's connection with the base plot is to be revealed ;D.

    Laptop's busted for now (screen gone kaput). It's gonna be a very slow ride for a few weeks, however, as soon as I get my laptop back, expect unbelievably massive updates and leaks.

    Oh, and by the way, Happy Halloween!

    EDIT (26/11/08): I'm sorry to say it, people, but I plan to give up on Pokemon - Forbidden Darkness :(. My brother, Declan, has offered to continue this hack for me. He has some great new ideas for the storyplot and is a fairly experienced hacker. I just can't keep up with the hack anymore - sorry, guys.

    This won't really have a major impact on the development of Forbidden Darkness itself, just that I won't be making it.
