Hmm, I was really looking forward to playing the game, so I downloaded the demo of the newest version. Funny thing happened. None of the key commands work for me. I managed to start a new game by minimizing the window. After I did that, I could press the v key to advance the text. When I get to the name choosing screen, not a single key I press seems to do anything. At this point, minimizing the window again acted as the input key, but since I could not more the selection, all I can do is input A's for my name. Any input would be appreciated.

Same thing happened to me in v7, so I DL'd v6. Same result. Not sure really sure what was going on. After a bit of trial and error, found that ALT would move through the text and select during the naming and "numpad 0" was the backspace but arrow keys didn't work. Took a cursory look through the files to see if i could manually change the key configuration, but either I missed it or I needed to look a little harder for it. Anyway... Just a bug report.
This is so awesome! Now it's not my game so I have no say, I'm only making a suggestion here, could you possibly release two versions? One with the current battle system and one with the original battle system? I think I'm not the only person who would like the ability to choose which battle system we wish to use (personally I would beat the game on both of them). It's just a suggestion, you don't have to take but I just figured I'd throw it out there.
So a few bugs i've run into so far.
-In the academy if you try to battle the academy leader it crashes the game
So i'm having problems with the corrupted pokemon is what i'm guessing because every time I try to fight a corrupt pokemon it has a sound play that sounds like a monster growling and then it spams a message that says "Not implimented" over, and over, and over. Could I get some help? really enjoying the game besides that.
Edit: It also opens a window called "ActiveMovieWindow" Which is just a blank white screen.
I understood where was my mistake ! I copied/pasted the files, instead of replaced it on the main file ! Stupid me ...
Anyway, thank you for answering me =D
This game is really awesome !
Picked up Demo 7a for a short playthrough.
Haven't gotten Eevee yet, but...
-In the intro, before Oak, the first set of ellipses shouldn't have a space before them.
-WHOA BUCKEYE GOT A SEX CHANGE
-Map item picture is off centered when given by mother
P.S.: You definitely didn't know this at the time you first began developing the game, Aurum Troops are enemies in Kid Icarus: Uprising. When I first saw the name 'Aurum Town', it was the first thing that came to mind.
I really like this game! The music, the story and the witty dialog, but especially the battle system, help make this game unique and distinct from the official games. This is the first fanmade game I've played, and so far it has been great :D I've laughed more than once!
Started playing this game, finally...
Anyway, there are quite many things that require fixing although otherwise, the game feels awesome.
The quest log has lots of bugs in it. I didn't find a place where you had these written down so I felt like I should reply here what I found.
Infinite loops: When choosing some of the "items", an infinite loop starts and you won't be able to escape from it any other way by closing the application (I didn't get far at the first time but it was still a bit annoying because I hadn't saved before I started viewing the items with quest log and had to start over).
I noticed the following items to have infinite loops in their scripts:
-Some of the Hidden Trophys
-Corrupted pokemon: Pinsir, Cacturne, Kingler, Pelipper, Arcanine, Heracross, Ninetails, Magcargo & Scyther
-Corrupted Voltorb + black palette unlike with other items
Other minor oddities:
-"Baby Steps" displays the same text as "Beginner Collector".
-"Export 20 ManMan... has a dot in the end of its description unlike other items.
-Corrupted Zubat is written in a different way that it should.
-Corrupted Abra/Kadabra, Phanpy/Donphan, Lairon/Aggron (I've a feeling these are not bugs but felt like reporting them anyway).
-Defeat the corrupted Laitos -quest.
Hopefully you'll get these fixed for the following versions!
(I'll get back to playing the game itself instead of searching for glitches from now on, hahha :D)

If you mean something like my USB Xbox 360 controller or a gamepad similar to it, then yes. I was able to connect my Xbox 360 controller to my computer, along with it's latest drivers. Then, I configured a program called Xpadder to tell what button does what. Anyway, I believe you should be able to, but no guarantees.
Back on topic, I have noticed the glitch as well about getting stuck after meeting "M" when you interact with things.
Hmm, well thanks to that alternate link, I can play, but I also have some bugs to report, and I'm sure I'll find more later. I apologize if these have been found already.
-In the Pokemon academy in Ventus city, in the Body path there is a kid, after you defeat him, his says something about if you lose. Thing is, lose is spelled incorrectly as loose.
-I tried to battle the acadamy master, and I got an error that popped up, then the game closed. "Event script referenced a monster group that does not exist."
-Inside the academy, before I beat both challenges, I called Oak. The script said wasn't supposed to happen until after I beat the Academy.
Once again, sorry if these were found already. I'll come up with another list later when I'm trying to bug test the game, right now I'm just playing and ignoring most of the bugs.
Hey guys I spotted a bug, at least I hope it's a bug, the game doesn't let me play, the controls are screwed up, I can't move the the letter selecter, z, enter and scape don't work as they are supposed too, alt is supposebly doing z, enter and space's function and I can't go past the name input screen
Hey, I'm really loving the game so far but is there an option somewhere where I can turn the volume of the game down? When I'm in a voicechat with my friends the volume is so loud I can't even hear then talking.
Thanks in advance

Look a few posts up at DarkDoom's last post. In reply to several other people who have had that same problem, he posted a link that will remedy the problem when you replace the file.
Probably a problem on my side, but what does the error message "RPG Advocate is cool" mean?
I re-ran the program and it was fine, but I'm just curious.
EDIT: Spell check.
Spoiler:
First sentence
No space before ellipses.
Screen is off-center.
Oak sequence
People call me the Pokemon Professor. (Not sure if mistake.) Others train Pokemon. (Conversation so far seemed casual, but this is debatable.)
Hello [comma] Gold.
This is a dream [comma] right?
Boy, that was a weird dream. (I feel that you are over-using ellipses. I dunno, though.)
The Main Character's House
Not really an issue, but it could be more... international (?) and use Mother instead of Mum.
Once again, probably a British English thing, but "these holidays"?
Umm well, look at the time[period] I better head off[exclamation point]
Minor annoyance, character goes under the navigation arrows.
Large red SOLD sign on your house? Doesn't make sense since the player's mother just asked about school as if it happens daily.
Blue haired girl
Oh, come on! Haven't you heard of spoiler tags?
??? (Rival)
Now I just gotta wait for her to lower her guard.
Trainer Tip
-Hidden (lowercase) items [...]
Aurum Town Sign
-Town of Golden Beginnings.
Guard We blocked off Route 1.
Team Rocket has been sighted beyond this point.
They're a team of terrorists [no period] using Pokemon just to cause mayhem.
They must be stopped. (Just a little stronger :P)
Entering Tasto Creek without asking professor
Can you make the player turn around and take a step forward? Seems more Pokemon-like.
Beetle Collector's House
It's a picture. Appears to be a fruit.
Pokemon: The Indigo League is on TV.
Collector
Hmm... How 'bout you find the beetles for me[question mark]
All 5 can be found in Aurum Town.
All beetles live on wood. (Text goes magenta after wood)
My beetle manual says they can be found on small indoor plants[semicolon] actually [...]
aand, that's all the free time I have today.
EDIT2: Well, schools pretty much over. (Spell check)
Spoiler:
Beetle Collector
(Brown beetle)
They are usually fond of fences. or They are usually found on fences.
When brown beetle is found, rival text shows up too.
(White beetle)
Same problem with white beetle (found/fond of/on)
And just an issue annoying me - is the word following ellipses capitalized? I would say no, but...
Nice job, there are only 2 more.
Which brings me to yet another point: spell out numbers ten and under. (Or just all of them.)
(Hazel beetle)
All it says is that they are found on small trees no comma which are easily removed.
Obtained Blue Ribbon.
Quest log/trophy refers to Aurum Town as Aurum City
Prof. Cid's Lab
Aid near Cid
Don't try to ask the professor for a Pokemon[semicolon] she hates it when people do that.
After being scolded for touching the big machine, Cid doesn't return to her usual position of facing down
Which then makes her turn left instead of down after scolding the player for wanting a Pokemon
Larry
I was collecting berries along the creek. (Creeks don't have berries IN them :P)
Then I heard [removed second heard]something behind me.
The navigation arrow in the Aurum side of Tasto Creek is one lower than the one in the map of the creek itself.
The homeless dude in Tasto Creek
Wild Pokemon roam around in tall grass[period]
If you walk in it, Pokemon might attack you.
Tutorial
Walk in tall grass, not over it.
When a battle initiates, the screen will flash white before the Pokemon attacks.
This is what the battle screen looks like.
That is the name of your character[period]
That is your HPor your (lowercase) hit points.
Humans can only use (lowercase) items and run.
Humans can use DMs (Direct Machines)[period]
DMs can be found in the (lowercase) items screen? inventory?.
Try to kill the pathetic (uppercase) Caterpie with a DM.
Can you have a different currency? The currency symbol comes after the number (like 3$), which is odd. Not much of an issue though.
I did pretty well if I do say so myself.
Can you make this hobo heal us afterwards? I lost some hp during the tutorial D:
(Done for now.)
EDIT3: Yep, I'm just bored today. Waiting for graduation :P
Spoiler:
Mystrey Berry -> Mystery Berry
Private Property: Keep Out sign
Should the "Keep Out" be in red?
Old Man's House It looks like there's a figure inside this machine.
TR Confrontation
Biggs
And isn't electric... super effective against flying[question mark]
Zubat battle
Hmm... Electric type attacks will kill this Zubat easily. I should just use Thunder Shock.
Wasn't paying too much attention, but did Zubat's leech life restore 100% of damage dealt?
Wedge
We're a feared international criminal organization.
Oak
Ahaha! You see, I used to be a Professor who researched Pokemon. You've probably seen me on my TV show.
I was battling those goons (no comma) - Team Missile or something. Interesting(ellipses have three dots, not four) that seems to back up my research.
Get into battles, fight enemies, defeat trainers[comma] etc.
I'm stopping the storyline here. Moving on to quest log and other things for now.
First of many - Pokemon does not have an accented e (Nor do any of the other capture Pokemon trophies)
In the hidden trophies section, every single one in the second row except the second one sends you into an infinite loop.
Exterminator trophy has Bugsy's name spelled as Bugzy
Broken Steel trophy's description says to defeat Whitney, not Jasmine
For all of the gym trophies, Pokemon is spelled without the accented e
For all the gym trophies, the colon after gym leader is unnecessary.
Baby steps trophy's description says capture 10 Pokemon instead of 5
Senior Collector is spelled Seinor Collector
Ultimate Collector is spelled Ultiamte Collector
Gotta Catch 'em All is missing a space between Catch and 'em
Evolution trophies are missing the accented e in Pokemon
I Only Use Pseudonyms trophy is missing accented e in Pokemon and the u in use should be capitalized.
Helping the Enviroment -> Helping the Environment
Bye bye bats! -> Bye Bye, Bats! and the c in corrupted shouldn't be capital.
The Prestige trophy says defeat the corrupted Abra, but the description says to defeated the corrupted Kadabra. If you're going by what you see it as at first, wouldn't be kill the corrupted Geodude for Rock Smasher? (Or am I remembering wrong?)
Whack-a-Mole trophy's description is formatted differently than all the others (Lists name, gives rank)
Ivory Trade trophy says defeat the corrupted Donphan, but the description says Phanpy.
Hard Aggression does the same thing with Aggron and Lairon.
Hard Diablo (Pinsir trophy) leads to infinite loop.
And so does 1000 Needles (Cacturne)
And Kingler (Giant Enemy Crab) ><
Voltorb, too (Which, by the way, is in black and not grey)
And the rest of the non-legendary corrupted Pokemon trophies -_-
Corrupted Laitos -> Corrupted Latios
I didn't receive the beetle collector trophy even after completing the quest
Quest Log description says dairy instead of diary
Cell phone description has two periods..
Trainer Card description does not have accented e (is it possible?)
What is a MegaByte and how did I get it? @_@
I've only noticed one, (only because I have him in the party and have been grinding up to 36 just to have him in v0.7a) but Typhlosion is named "Typlosion" (no h).
Problem. I just downloaded the game but when I try to attack a corrupted Pokemon like the Zubat or the first bait trap the game crashes with a serpent of 'Not Implemented Yet' error windows.
It's a native windows application, that said, im running linux only these days, so i know theres options out there.
-WINE: basically a windows emulator. I've had mixed performance with this. :/ sometimes works great, no music though. other times it fails to boot up.
-WindowsXP virtual machine: this is how im using to build/play the game. sometimes runs a little sluggish. but has full music and doesn't really *fail*. for some reason, can't seem to use the pokedex browser on it though.
-or just boot camp it.
It doesn't have native gamepad support, but you can remap the gamepad buttons to the game's buttons.
I actually sometimes play spee with my ps3 controller. works pretty decently.
Hmm, well thanks to that alternate link, I can play, but I also have some bugs to report, and I'm sure I'll find more later. I apologize if these have been found already.

Thanks in advance
theres sadly no volume option ingame :/
It's a frustration I have aswell. for some reason the game is REALLY loud.
The best I could do is go through the game and look for every instance of music/sound playing and lower the volume. as you can guess, that would take a lot of work. and it's something i've decided to bench until later.
depending on the operating system (vista, win7, ubuntu, etc) each application has it's own volume that you can change. so lowering the volume of RPG_RT.exe would help greatly.

good luck at nerd camp!
coincidentially, my simester break ends in 3 weeks. :O
Minor Update
My simester break started this past week. (2.5/4 years of uni completed :D)
and work progress on SPEE has skyrocketed. I've gone and redone most of the script... again.
And i've inserted new scenes in. which *should* make the storyline more easy to follow. Chapter 3 is all but done, it's quite different than before, with new events and whatnot.
and chapter 4 shouldn't take too long to complete. which is where the next version, v0.7b should end.
so look forward to seeing the next version in the next few weeks (or @BCKC- when you come back from camp)
Dang, Dark. Nice work on the all of the bug fixes. There were quite a few that BCKC had. And good work on getting through uni; just 1.5 years left! Can't wait for the v0.7b update. Keep up the good work!
