Pokemon Soulstones 2: Time Wardens
Following the success of my first solo dev game, Pokemon Soulstones (35,000+ downloads), a Discord server of over 3,000 members, making a Top 10 fan game list for 2021 by RuffledRowlet, and having playthroughs featured by notable Poketubers such as aDrive and Voltsy, I have been working away on a highly ambitious sequel with a team on the sequel, Time Wardens!
PLOT:
You feel a voice calling out to you in your sleep on the night before your 21st birthday. She sounds concerned and she's calling out to you for help and to find her while she is in trouble and vulnerable. You will soon find yourself caught up in a plot that involves assisting a visitor from an alternate universe as she investigates and attempts to unravel the objectives of the Ethereal Guild, a loosely associated band of mercenaries, pirates, and profiteers who have ambitions for intertemporal dominance. While their organization lurks in the shadows, it appears as their influence runs deeper than anticipated, threatening the stability of the Orion region.
You do not need to have played Pokemon Soulstones to enjoy this sequel but it is highly encouraged to appreciate the story more. Check out Pokemon Soulstones here: https://www.pokecommunity.com/threads/440329
This game is planned to feature the following:
- 3 new types (Cosmic, Sound and Light) and a re-balanced type chart;
- Built on v19.1 of Essentials with plans to eventually upgrade to v20 when it is released.
- Mega Evolution
- A Pokedex of over 700 custom regional variant Pokemon.
- Custom pixel art battle backs for each environment.
- Generation 4 graphics
The team is currently a set of 7:
- Jos_Louis#1472 - Lead Developer (Mapper, Eventer, Writer, Artist, Move Animator, etc.)
- SoranoAngel#7902 and Nuems#2097 - Balancing
- Hexx_Vixtar#6594 and Endless (Kaptain Kip)#8153 - Artists
- PDM20#8338 - Scripter
- Cygnus#4548 - Writer
Roles being recruited for:
We are well into development of the sequel and approaching release of a demo and looking to supplement our development team with a few specialized roles:
- Move Animator
- Combat AI scripter
I have a track record of having a completed fan game under my belt, and made a lot of progress towards a demo so you know our team means business and we're committed to the long-haul on the development and support of this game.
If you would like to join the development team, please send me a DM and ideally any previous projects you've previously contributed to or been involved in. I recognize the roles being sought out are very specialized so even if you haven't got any released projects but have dabbled in the areas that we're looking for the specialized experience in, that will do!
