I finally decided to take a look on this, specially the storyline, since it was quite long and I was feeling lazy about reading it. But, it looks like a really interesting idea, with all the mystery around. Good to see a different purpose on to battling the Gym Leaders.
Besides the idea, those tiles really are something unique around the rom hacking world. I'm so glad of seeing something different these days. So, now I hope you really dont let this project down because you have the main two areas covered perfectly: A good story with good graphics.
The only thing that is a bit strange is the hack's name. Though it fits, it's still... weird.
Well, keep it up. I'll be here, wondering who did it :P
