Hack Series: Sovereign of the Skies - New Beta 2.0.0. Version Released (06/10/2021)

This is so fun I hope there's more journey to begin ❤️ and also I read some of the comments there is no English version but I'm playing is all English
 
Please do not Download an inofficial ROM Version of the game. We supply the game as a BSP Patch files with instructions on how to patch the game as are the rules for this board! We have reported the incident.

A german, as well as an english version is supplied by us on the Download Page: https://sots.karathan.at/#1-download
 
the issue i have with this game is that my starter pokemon is always male no matter how many times i reload it and even the gender modifier cheat doesnt work. i see this as a flaw to my eyes
 
Update:

Currently, we are in the process of adapting and graphically improving old locations in addition to the new ones. This should put SotS ahead of many fangame projects in terms of features and uniqueness. (We have been inspired by Golden Sun for this location. :P)

 
Thanks for the update :). Remind me, are using something similar to CFRU except for emerald? I'm not sure what the equivalent is but this is looking great. Looking forward to playing this next year :).

Heya, i just fired up a new game on the current release version and got a female Charmander after just a few tries, so this is definitely not a bug :) - Keep in mind that all 3 of our starters have a very high chance of being male. (87.5%)

The project is based on `pokeemerald` the decomp version of the game. Granted CFRU is for binary firered we do not use that. Apart from the battle engine, which is a collaboration project started by DizzyEgg, almost all of the custom code for this game was written by our team.

Thanks for all your nice comments, really appreciated :)

Neat, thanks for reply. There is now so much I'm used to in Pokémon Unbound it might feel strange not having similar quality of life things added but I'm sure whatever this turns into it'll feel really well polished and accessable :).

It doesn't work on my john gba emulator. What emulators work?
Click to expand...

It should really work on most emulators, we tested a bunch of them - but to have a good experience you may wanna checkout retroarch on Android, mGBA on Desktop and if all fails because you cannot get retroarch to run on your device (e.g. iphones...) you might want to use MyBoy (Which I do not like to recommend, its a paid emulator after all...)

is there a way to randomize the game yet?

Not really, if anything we'll build quirky features like that after everything else is finished in like a post-game update

[PokeCommunity.com] Sovereign of the Skies - New Beta 2.0.0. Version Released (06/10/2021)

Introduction:
Many days, months and years have passed since the last release and you had to wait a very long time. Back when the 2nd beta was released, we were all mostly students and had much more time and less stress in the RL than it is unfortunately the case today.

At that time the 2nd beta was developed by "kids" and did not meet our expectations of how a game should look like. It took many failed attempts and new approaches, but now we finally have a solid foundation.

But the waiting has finally come to an end! As the longest Rome-Hack project on the German scene, we present the new edition of Pokémon Sovereign of the Skies in both German and English!

Story:
The balance of a world is about to be shaken. While the mighty Guardians of Amitec can no longer leave their stronghold, the Sacred Shards of Celestis are stolen by the cold hands of Team Tundra. Find out what this is all about, and how a simple coach suddenly carries the fate of a world, in this unique adventure!

Features:
  • All Pokémon up to Generation 7: all Pokémon up to Generation 7 are included.
  • Mega-developments & Protomorphosis: read correctly, the mega-developments are back.
