Pokemon Purple

[Prof Plum]

If you are talking about the Birch sprite, that is fine, I don't need any help as far as sprites are concerned. But thanks anyway.

 

[mew is real619]

sorry about that but i am really going to enjoy this game alot

 

[Prof Plum]

Ok, I won't be here tomorrow so I'll be posting a big update on Tuesday. It will include the new hero CharSet, a fully mapped Route 47 (maybe a mapped Venture Woods as well) and more.

Until then, see ya!

 

[Prof Plum]

Sorry about the double post there, but nobody replied in two whole days! Maybe people are losing interest.

Anyway, time for that update I promised you on Sunday.

------UPDATE------
I have fixed the hero's charset, his hair doesn't look flat anymore (thank you Daegon, for pointing that out) Also, I have mapped out two new areas, Route 47 and Venture Woods. Plus, I have done a new Yew sprite.

The new Yew sprite. It is just a big edit of Birch, that's all.

The mapped out screen of Venture Woods

A dark and eerie forest.

The mapped Route 47.

The hero walking around in R47. Notice the fixed charset.

Another shot of R47.

Neat screens! They're awesome! ANd the new character sprite looks great, too ;)

 

[Datriot]

Wow! Those are some awesome maps! I quite like Prof. Yew aswell!
Keep this up man! I like your new character sprite, a lot better than before.:)

 

[Prof Plum]

Thanks for the comments. I thought the new charset would go down well.

I have decided on the first demo of this game. It will go up to and including the first Gym Leader, Megan (poison type, for the STINGBADGE) and will have CBS, bag, various CMS's and more. It should be released sometime in August.

Um will you be showing us the hidden Pokemon in your first post?

 

[Raccoon]

Is it a good idea having the first gym leader a poison type? That could be annoying because of the poison thingy.

 

[Prof Plum]

@SadFurret: I will be revealing pokemon and posting new silhouettes on Saturdays.

@Raccoon: I think that it was good for poison to be the first gym because, well, it's more suitable to that stage of the game than any later IMO. It is weak to quite a lot of types that aren't available early on, plus I think the poisoning will add a good challenge to it. The gym leaders are going to be hard to beat in this game.

 

[D-jo4000]

Well one Saturday already passed and you still haven't revealed any. and why only once a week. Why not just reveal them when they are done?

 

[Prof Plum]

1. One saturday has not passed yet, it was just a saturday when this thread was started.

2. By revealing them once a week, I keep at a steady pace meaning that they will all be revealed by the time the game is finished.

3. Mostly explained in 2, but people can guess what it is when I give the silhouette a week earlier.

I think I know what I am doing with the sprites.

 

[Jayje]

is it a barboach? looks like one. any way can't wait to see this. hope you take this all the way.

 

[Prof Plum]

No, Jayje, it is not barboach, the Pokemon I am revealing are all new. Otherwise, why would I reveal them?

 

[Chimou]

You should probably work on the dialogue a bit. It looks really cluttered.

"The world we live in is inhabited by loads and loads of different spiecies of POKEMON.
Some live in the mountains, some live on the land and some live in the sea. But most"

It should be more like this:

"The world is inhabited by many different species of POK?MON.
They live in the mountains, on land, and in the sea."

Be concise like a real intellectual would be. A respected professor wouldn't say, "loads and loads."

 

[Prof Plum]

Yes, but seeing as you are his own son, I think he can make an exception to how he usually talks to other people. <_<;

 

[Chimou]

It still sounds like something a five-year-old would say, not an adult.

 

[DarkDoom3000]

I think it sounds ok .talking like a robot sounds kinda boring, :)

 

[Prof Plum]

Thank you, DarkDoom3000. At least someone here can interact with reality...

------REVEAL AND SILHOUETTES------

It's Saturday today, so you know what that means! Time for last weeks silhouette to be revealed:

Name: CRUCIEL

Type: WATER (you guessed it DP, this is the water starter. Not a barcoach)

Height: 7"

Weight: 8lbs

Dex Entry: In the wild, this Pokemon is an endangered species. It lives by feeding on seaweed at the bottom of the sea until it evolves.

And this week's silhouette:

Might be a bit harder than the last one.

 

[Datriot]

I think the silouette is the fire starter!
PS: I like your water starter!:)
