[Released] Rocket Rising

Hi everyone! I'm using my tablet to play this game. I love it. The problem is that I can't unlock the locked door in Celadon City. I have the lockpick. Is it possible to unlock it on tablet?

How to use the lockpick exactly? I'm pressing the appropriate buttons, I think. But for no avail.

Progress: Title stuff, finished with enemy weaknesses, finished with the multi-city boss battles, onto a short cave exploration with Idris, also doing some optional gym leader stuff and recruitables.

Next up will be Pokemon League battles. So far I've been using Trainers from the anime who were at the League, and Trainers from the Mewtwo movie, but I'm still about 7 Trainers short.

You use the lockpick by pressing and holding ALL of the buttons at the same time.
So for the Locked House in Celadon you need to hold down DOWN, Q, and ENTER (all 3) at the same time.
This might not be possible with a tablet.

But you only need 5 clues to get further on in the story, so talk to
Spoiler:
and you won't need the clues in the Locked House.

Thank you for your answer. I tried to press them at the same time, but it is probably impossible on tablet. Why does the lockpick work this way? Why can't you simply interact with a locked door?
 
I have a bug. After defeating the secretary in Silph Co., the game crashes when Redra says someone is defeating the grunts.
 
Progress: I've decided what all the Spliced Pokemon will be, but now I need to make all of their pictures.
I linked to some Let's Plays on the front page. Let me know if you know of any others!

Well, most lockpicking involves some sort of skill or minigame. I never realized it would make playing on a tablet impossible. But I never thought it was possible to play on a tablet in the first place?

For the bug, do you have the most recent version (0.4.3)?
https://www.mediafire.com/file/9cc07m6ynqwiojp/RocketRising4.exe
It may have to do with me using a name in the choice menu around that point. But I want to be sure.
 
The game says version 0.4 not 0.4.3
I really don't want to start a new game.
I downloaded the version which states: if you are having problems...
The first time I played this game, I didn't get the lockpick. The 2nd time, I got it in this version.

You shouldn't have to start a new game, just double click the folder that says Rocket Rising, copy your Save file, and then paste it over into the 0.4.3 version.
Whenever there's a patch or an update you should always be able to transfer your Save this way and just keep going!

Glad you're excited!
 
I have some questions about Mutagens. I got one after Redra's Day mission. After stealing Chansey, I evolved my Rattata. Then, right before I used the mutagen, I saved the game. I mutated Raticate, so it became part psychic type and got Psychic and Confusion. But its magic attack (spc. attack) is awful so I reloaded the game. I mutated Gastly this time and it got the bug type, Leech Life and Poison Bite (which is Poison Fang). Since Gastly's attack is low, I reloaded again, and mutated Chansey, who got the fighting type with Leer. I didn't really like them because of this reason, so I reloaded a few times in hopes they get different types, but they always got the same. I eventually chose Raticate (they look cool), so it is part psychic now. Why do they get the same types everytime I mutate them? Why is Raticate's nickname Ratatta (I chose not to give a nickname to it)? Where can I rename it? Do mutated types replace the 2nd type? Probably yes.
 
How can I evolve Haunter? Is trade evolution possible in this game?

Awesome! I'm glad that worked.

The Mutagens aren't random. They combine a Pokemon with another type that will always be the same. Rattata will always become Psychic, Gastly will be Bug, Chansey will be Fighting.
Before, the idea was to just balance their stats different. Rattata becomes more magic based, and so loses some Agility, etc. But now I think I should just make all of the Mutated pokemon consistently stronger in every way. Mutagens are fairly rare after all, so they should be a good reward.
You can rename things whenever you mutate or evolve them, and there is a sort of Renaming Station in Lavender. In the future I'll probably shift that into the Base somewhere for easier access. If you choose not to nickname your Rattata it will have the name "Rattata". When you're evolving or mutating it, I don't erase the nickname, so if you choose not to CHANGE it's nickname then, it'll still be "Rattata".
I... may be able to fix that with a certain Conditional Branch?

Whatever mutation type is added will "average out' with its other strengths and weaknesses, it doesn't replace the other secondary type it might have. So if it's a Normal type that is 2x weak to Fighting, but then gets a Psychic addition which is resistant to Fighting, the new Spliced Pokemon won't be weak OR resistant to Fighting type moves.

Gastly should evolve to Haunter at lvl 25, and to Gengar at lvl 35, since there is no way to trade in this game.

Also, you can edit your posts and I'll still see your other questions! I only get notified about the first new post in the forum anyway.

Can Golbat evolve into Crobat and Chansey into Blissey? Or only gen 1 pok?mon are in the game?
 
Progress:o1_400.png[/IMG]
9 more portraits to go.

Also need to: Finish the Character Sprites for all the Spliced Pokemon
Adjust all Spliced stats so they're noticeably better
Do all the coding/eventing for the mutation events. ... god. There's about 19 of those, not looking forward to it.
I'll continue to keep you all updated as I get through this all.

Only gen 1! Unfortunately there was only so much I can include, so no evolutions for Chansey or Golbat or anything.
