[pokemoncha]

quite excited to play this game. always been a fan of games where your choices impact the story. i have high hopes!

 

[Death_kof]

a game that shows that is very planned, but I think you're neglecting something essential ... the graphics are what make you want to play the rpg, I think you could improve them a bit

 

[Dark]

This looks very cool love some of the features and de screenshots are amazing, love the concept

 

[Dark]

Is this game still in development? It has the potencial to be one of the best ever

Hey thanks for your feedback.

Yes it is stll in development. Currntly only C1 is out and avaible via Discord and we are working on C2. However since we are a really small team it takes alot of time to get everything, especially if it comes to the graphics, that need improvement

Hello Ego13! I am a spriter and well, I can try my best to help you if you want! I'm a veteran spriter, so I think I will be somewhat useful hehe. Could I enter Pokemon Hollow Team? I have other social media like Discord (Kerilet#7187) and Deviantart(Sidra51), if you want to contact me/check out some of my sprites!
