    Hey everyone!
    I'm recruiting for a narrative-driven ROM hack called Project Mew, based on Pokémon LeafGreen/FireRed.
    This project explores an alternate version of Kanto filled with strange paths, hidden lore, and broken logic.


    What's on the table?

    • A distorted version of Kanto: familiar, yet twisted, with a new layout, new lore, and brand-new protagonists.
    • All Pokémon are obtainable (no version exclusives, no trade evolutions).
    • Unique ways to get the Kanto starters, inspired by Pokémon Yellow.
    • Both fossils and both Hitmons can be acquired.
    • Secret postgame events involving Mew and Mewtwo.
    • A potential secret region: Nexaria — a glitched, corrupted world hiding a very... unusual encounter.

    Core Lore Elements (non-negotiable)

    Some story beats are set in stone, as they form the foundation of the project:

    • Mew is obtainable.
    • The story takes place in an altered Kanto.
    • There's a strong focus on new lore and eerie encounters.
    Everything else is up for discussion and creative input!


    Who I'm looking for

    Whether you're experienced or just starting out — if you're curious, creative, or eager to learn, you're welcome here. This is a passion project, with no pressure or deadlines. I'm not a programmer myself, so I'm looking to build a team that wants to learn and experiment together.

    Open roles:

    • Programmers / Event Scripters (FireRed/LeafGreen or decomp)
    • Pixel Artists (trainers, overworlds, glitch visuals)
    • Co-writers (dialogues, eerie NPCs, item descriptions)
    • Testers (especially lore explorers — I'll be one too!)
    • Optional: Musicians into ambient/glitchcore vibes

    What I offer

    • A complete narrative structure ready to implement
    • A unique glitch-themed lore base
    • Full credit to all contributors
    • A respectful, collaborative team environment
    • Creative freedom within a stable framework

    Contact me!
    Reply here or DM me if you're interested.
    Even if you just want to brainstorm ideas or help test — you're more than welcome.
    This is a non-profit project. No pros required — just passion!
