    Not everything is what it seems.

    ◈ Pokèmon Parallax ◈
    Welcome to Pokèmon Parallax, a fangame made for the Relic Castle Game Jam #6!
    This game takes place in the world of Pokèmon, where you get to play as Looker, A.K.A 100kr, a renowned and famous officer of Interpol! Venture on your journey in your first mission as an Interpol agent, where you will be taken to the Kimlik Islands, a new and never-seen-before area!

    plot.png
    The Kimlik Islands, called the land of a thousand identities and ages, stranded in the middle of the ocean. The region's leauge is blossoming, tourism is booming - but under the surface, a strange and fashionable troupe are threatening to undo all that progress.

    Those who come to Team Masque's famous masked balls, held for every occasion from the conductor in white's birthday, to the end of the world as we know it - would call them escapists. Harmless, perhaps, just wanting to recapture a bygone age where the worthy told the rest eat cake.

    Those who've watched them take whole cruise ships hostage would sing a different tune. They might well call them hedonists, and the admin with the fiery hair might well agree with you. (Just - ironically.)

    And those who heard the leading lady with the golden microphone singing to her audience, about how the world outside's a bit of a sham, how they're all free as birds, about stories of daring-do and divorce played to the grunt's mocking laughter, might call them or her...a cynic.

    Still...what's the point of being escapist, if everyone else seems hell bent on ruining your fun?

    No-one even knew just how many Team Masque members there were until a short while ago. They have no plan, at least not one the leader's letting on about...and also no restraint.

    Far, far away, new Interpol recruit Looker only has one, very simple mission: stop crime. When he's sent to the Kimlik Islands on an inside job, with zero leads and zero idea what he's in for - Looker feels like he's finally in his element. His handler, Nanu, thinks he's gone in too deep.

    But infiltrating the Masque should be easy. Put on the mask, put on a little nihilism too, fit in with the crowd, do a little eavesdropping here, a bit of espionage there. Then - be the hero and hopefully escape with your life.
    ...Will his gamble pay off and save Kimlik Island, or has Looker gone in too deep?

    Stealth Missions
    As an Interpol officer, you're gonna have to sneak around a bit to get what you want. To account for this, we're introducing Stealth Missions! They say that trainers must fight when their eyes meet, but what do two thieves do when their eyes meet while sneaking around? Stay away from police officers and criminals, and hide to your best ability to reach your end goal!

  • Found a bug, might be known, I'm not sure... I lost to somebody in Eruni city, and now I've got two pokemon following me instead of the one. Doesn't seem to be breaking anything, but I had no idea that could even happen. Nothing seems to make it go away. Changing maps, healing my team, switching pokemon. Not even restarting the game. It's weird.
    EDIT;
    Specifically that first town part, not the city proper.

    It was the 'Onigawara Family' house, with the old lady that heals you. I'd lost to the uh... masked trainer just up a few steps north of that house on the road northwards. But it's not breaking anything, at least nothing that I've seen - apart from having two of the same 'mon following me, everything seems to work fine. Just a bit weird to have two growlithes or Croagunks following me, heh.
    And ye~! I'm having fun - that premise/summary in the main post really hooked me~

    Ah, that's an error on my part. Yes! The game is fully complete, I just made this thread when it was in its demo stage and forgot to update. My bad!

    I'm glad you're enjoying the game! Unfortunately, if you've saved, then the two follower Pokemon will stay, but I've patched the bug for future users!

    hello, i just've downloaded your game and so far i am entertained. kudos for you! I have a little bit issue though, i got to the zafer city gym's quest but it seems like there's some kind of bug there where i can't reach the gym leader and when i used the stairs, the avatar just stopped walking and i can't control it anymore. Could you maybe take a look at it? Thank you so much for making this game and i look forward to more developments made into this game!
