Pokemon Symphonic Horizon
"image removed"
"image removed"
Hello, this is a game that I am working on in RPG Maker XP, it is called "Pokemon Symphonic Horizon."
INTRODUCTION
The reason why I started making this game was mainly due to me originally wanting to make this as a 3D Pokemon Action Game. But, that fell short after my whole team disbanded, and then I moved on to making my game as a traditional Pokemon RPG. It continued on as a one-person job in Rom Hacking, I did what I could but was FED UP! With the many restrictions Rom Hacking had on you. So, I kept looking for an alternative form of game creation, and then I came across Pokemon Essentials and RPG Maker XP. I thought to myself thinking that this would be really hard to get into, given all the Ruby language I would have to slowly develop over time, but I can say without a doubt that it has been the best way to make a Pokemon game. I've been using this for at least 1 1/2 years now, and I can say that I will be sticking with it! But, its not only that, but, I wanted to make this game so that it focused more on the characters, rather than the Pokemon themselves. I did that so that it gave more personality to characters, and generally made them more lovable than some cookie-cutter protagonist that reeks with the presence of no emotion or personality. So, my game is more plot driven and generally have about 6-10 minute long cutscenes maybe even longer, where the characters talk about issues in game, or just talking about themselves and getting to know each other better. Its traditional to put it simply. The characters have feelings, the characters have emotion. Its not some attempt at making a game where you have a list of choices that determine an ending, no, this game focuses on one thing: The Plot. No fancy over-the-top graphics that make you go WOWWW! (Albeit my game does have those, just look at the videos and screenshots ;)) My game is entirely focused on bringing out the character and personality of its cast, and also focusing on the Pokemon as well. I also try to make it so that the gameplay is also fresh and interesting with many original ideas such as jumping across bridges in the water to reach the other end of an area (which was a gimmick used in the Hydro Sanctuary.)
PLOT
The plot of the game is centered around the players starting choice. If you play as the female character Marissa Brennan:
Spoiler:
Or Vice Advent:
Determines what kind of direction the story will go. The story is different depending on who you play as, and also have different starting points at the beginning of the game, however they always stick together as a team throughout the story and slowly develop amorous feelings for each other. Even still, there are points where the two split up and go through different events and fight different bosses and different Pokemon. The plot for the male character revolves around understanding the meaning of his existence, you are washed up on a beach forever shrouded in a white colorless fog, called: Dawn Beach. You find a lone Pokemon Box near a grave and to only find out that it is being surrounded by the Ex-Champions Pokemon mourning near it. Inside of the Pokemon Box is a very special Eevee that possesses more power than a normal Eevee (basically with higher stats and a MUCH wider move pool)
For the females story, it revolves around Marissa looking for her parents and helping Vice save the planet from an unstable, yet ubiquitous force called: Dragon Force. She does this with the main character by collecting items called Space Orb Fragments, only to piece them together and create the Space Orb and take it to a location called Destiny Outlook, where they can re-stabilize the flow of Dragons Force; or else the Planet's Cry will take place and the world will fall into ruin and all life will cease to exist. However, there is a evil organization called The Dark Fangs that want to use the Space Orb to destroy the world, and then re-create it in their own image (kinda like Team Flare, except my idea came first :P) The leader of the Dark Fangs: Nero, is almost an exact twin to Vice, however they are not related, and Nero despises Vice for their similar appearances, as Vice closely resembles Nero's brother Zane; who died eight-years prior to the events that take place in this game.
Along the road, Vice and Marissa come across fellow party members:

Angelo Clarity: who I don't have a sprite for yet :P or concept artwork :P But, this character decides to follow Vice after a *spoiler event* happens later in the game. He is a very stoic and very collected in nature. But, he does make rather rash decisions at certain points, and even comes close to almost killing Marissa. Even still, he has a dark and clouded past, but has well-full of emotions in him that he chooses not to reveal to others, except for Vice.
Vivian Vance: she is a very extroverted and excitable young girl. She decides to follow Vice and Marissa once she realizes that Vice isn't really a Dark Fang, and misunderstood their actions. Which she originally thought was that they were going to attack Shaymin Village, but instead decided to go onto a detour and visit it. Vivian is for the most part very childish, but very cunning and also very sneaky. As she helps the party later on in the game escape from the prison that they were captured in, by the Dark Fangs. She is also very skilled in Pokemon battling, especially during the first battle with her as she boast a whole team of VERY threatening Pokemon, which even if you lose in the fight, you get an alternate scene rather than getting a game over screen.
Serena: YES! THE SAME SERENA FROM X AND Y! I don't even need to show artwork of her, you should know who she is. However, I added more to her character in that, she talks. And, she is currently visiting the Lumia Region with her mother for Rhyhorn races. She first encounters Vice and party when Vice first visits the Capital City of Lumia: Skycrest City (which is like Lumiose City, BUT MINE CAME FIRST ;.;) She comes off as very helpful and friendly and can also be a chosen choice for Vice to enter a romantic relationship with. Most of the time, she always finds an alternative way to get around very, almost seeminly impossible situations, and also uses her powerful Pokemon to help out Vice and friends. Since she is the Kalos Champion, she is VERRRYY powerful.
Other Characters that I will fill in later.

PROGRESS
Currently: 10% AND THIS GAME IS LOOONNNGGG! So 10% is actually a lot done!
As for a beta, uhmm... nooo. Because if I release this game, there is gonna be a flood of crappy LP's that's gonna make me rage up a storm. So, for the most part, this game is in closed beta, where only people who I see should test my game will be able to play it. So, sorry. I am stingy, cynical and unfair, and I know it! Sorry LP'ers, find some other game to do a crappy nuzlocke of in the mean time. XD (I'm such a jerk) Also, my game isn't Nuzlocke friendly, so uhhhh, yeah recommended that you DON'T nuzlocke it ;)
