yeah, another new game...but with a difference, this one is likely to take a LOT longer than anybody elses. why? you ask because i am quite the newbie when it comes to makin games. Well anyway, I did originaly decide to do a game around the orange islands, but decided against it and do my own set of islands - Abekobe Islands. First part of the story - you are a boy, Tak, working in the local poke mart to earn some money to pay for a ticket for the ferry that leads to the next island to start his own journey. First he must get a pokemon of prof. turner - likely to be charmander, bulbasaur and squirtle. Also in the game will be team rocket, prof oak ur rival Ruby plus jessie and james will make a few appearances. I have done one island so far and thats the island u start off on - Dedashi Island. Any help, critisism and ideas are truly welcome. Thanks for reading.

Good start!!!
May I point out that the rock ledges north east are missing a top...
And, it looks a bit empty on the northern and southern most parts of the island
Other than that, it's great!
What do you plan on naming this game?

I wish you good luck with this game!

thanks for your comments ive fixed the map, i have yet to decide on a name, i did decide on pokemon orange before i changed my mind about doing the orange islands. So i'm all open for game names.

The unique title of this thread intrigued me! XD I think that was my very first Pokemon chipset, I can't believe it's still in existance XD

In seriousness now, that's an impressive map for a newbie. The tops of the signposts are missing though. And it looks a bit odd how you have two different sign posts right next to each other in the middle of the map. Good luck on this, I'll be interested to see what you come up with.

one sign post is for the pokemon center the other is for the general area, and how do u mean the tops of the signposts are missing?, thanks for you comments.

[Jacksonater]

1st map is nice but its waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too square, you need to make it look more natural
2nd map is cool but you need to make walls (Just black spaces) like in the game lol

 

[Dawson]

I think the lab is a bit too wide. Maybe you could make it a few tiles thinner?

 

[Jacksonater]

i was thinkin it looked a bit to big, i do have black spaces u just can't see them in that shot.

 

[Dawson]

I think you should make it 2 tiles smaller on either side, so there are only 3 green bookcases on each side. That should make it look like a reasonable size.

 

[Jacksonater]

I have made the lab a lot smaller (considerin its only an island i thought i'd make it a little smaller). I know this is the basics of the basics but how do i make it so that my hero doesnt just walk over/through everythin on my maps. He seems t walk through everythin but the other people. thanks in advance.

 

[Dawson]

You need to configure the tileset in the database. O means that the tile is passable, X means the tile is unpassable, Star means that the hero will walk behind the tile. There's also the square too, but I forget what that's for...

 

[Jacksonater]

oh yeah, I got it, thanks

The new lab ismuch better but pls try to fix the Island cause most ppl dont like games with square Maps (Indoors are an exception lol) and if your using Rm2k/3, just press F4 to go into Half sized screen then F5 to make it smaller, looks more like its fresh off the VBA that way lol
