I'm impressed

I'm excited for next demo, however long it may take.

>>28127769
what are the types for the starters?

Is fairy type implemented?

I haven't seen these threads in such a long time.

>>28127961

no

>>28127961
Final evos are Grass/Flying, Fire/Rock, and Water/Fighting
Still no Fairy type for some reason

>>28127961
No fairy was a dumb decision that was taken before XY were released. You guys should really reconsider it. Especially since there are a few fairy-looking Pokemon in the dex.

It's lame to have a game that's already way outdated before it's even close to be complete.

2.0 before Christmas, is it likely?

>>28127709
Glad to see you're still working on it. I really loved the demo.

>>28127709
What was the name of the 8ch board again? Is it still being used?

>>28128434
The game is essentially open source when(if) it gets done, you can edit in Fairy type yourself.

>>28128443
Link to demo? I never got to play it.

>>28127709

Wow, I am genuinely impressed. I usually find myself hating fangames, especially with fakemons, but I actually love this The art is great, and most of the concepts are quite good. The main characters are well designed, too.

Good work, OP.

>>28128552
Jesus, this game doesn't fuck around even right out the gate.

Oh hey, cool. Good to hear you're still hard at work. I'm assuming you still haven't got an estimate for 2.0?

>>28130988
Never
>>28128434
Quite a few devs are butthurt about fairy type and megas. Sage is literally a "I'm going to make my own game with blackhack and hookers" to them.
>>28128440
Yes
>praise
We appreciate it!

>>28131364
>Quite a few devs are butthurt about fairy type and megas.
not only that many haven't played for years and years.

Which one is Dronia? 2nd gym?
Is Clash still around?

>>28131364
>Quite a few devs are butthurt about fairy type and megas.
Never understood that.
I remember the same thing happening on the 5th grade playground when they introduced dark and steel.
Fairy balanced the unchecked (and more and more prevalent) dragon type...
It's the new dark.
Only difference is that dark was weak to super common super available types, while fairy is weak to poison and steel... Which rarely get moves outside of their type... Except for toxic.

>>28132366
Also: that's why it feels like fairy is OP. We'll likely see a lot more poison and steel type moves that every rando can learn in SM.

Give one genuine reason as to why you should include fairy types. It's not difficult to implement in an Essentialsgame, literally take 5 minutes in the PBS to write down weaknesses/resists etc.

It's not as if you don't have any mons that could be fairy.

>fairy doesn't even balance the game properly
>none of the pokemon were designed with fairy in mind, regardless of what you think can be fairy. Doppole/Artifish aren't fairies.

>>28132366
I'm still a little assmad about steel.

>>28132383
We already have that, it's more the fact steel and poison despite being good on fairy are still garbage offensively with steel being the better (and more available, iron head is common) option. Fairy is balanced by being comprised primarily of shitmons or things that would be shitmons if not for a retardedly good ability (or two, looking at you clefable)

>>28132501
>Cowatti
hardly a fairy
>Orangutao line
No
>Dreamdery/Macabra
Macabra maybe if dreamdery also got dark.
>Nobunata
No
>Solacari
No what the fuck
>Artifish line
How is this a fairy lmao
>Sunduke line
Again what the fuck
>Xochi/Xotec (arguable)
Not arguable at all, they're absolutely fae and especially Xochi
Otherwise correct. Also you missed paramoth being prime fairy material.

At this point we just can't be fucked rebalancing and want it done/don't really want to deal with said buttmad devs autism about the type.

>>28132728
Steel is op. Resistance to almost everything is just dumb. Dark is what ghost should have been. Fairy is a joke and an attempt to balance the type that was meant to reward you for training such grind heavy mons in the first place. Why even bother with dragons now? If fairy was added, I'd seriously consider trying to pull a second exodus.

>>28132285
dronia's the second gym
clash is around but pretty busy

>>28127709
Just wait until Nintendo gives this finished game in the year 2028 a cease and desist

>>28127709
How is this game? Light/Edgy? Easy/Challenging?

I went through Reborn and Rejuvenation, while story wasn't those ones strong points, I quite liked Pokemon in a darker setting and the increase in difficulty, which made me feel like I earned those victories.

Even so, the next fangames were disappointments. They either fell in quality or, in case of Pokemon Full Moon, a Twilight fanfic grade story of a Mary Sue.

So, I don't have many standards for a game. Just want to know how it is since people talk about it. May end up playing later (currently going through Insurgence because I need the Deltas to satiate my Alolan urges)

>>28133040
>clash is around but pretty busy
Tell him I love him

>>28134456
It's pretty light and comfy, at least from what I've played thus far. Can't say much to difficulty, though I'd say it'd be more average to easy, at least compared to some of the more hardcore fangames out there.

Super cool to see another post. Love the no fairy and megas. Love all the characters. Everyone hates on your process but it's working.. Slow is better than ass. Keep up the awesome quality of work.

Any more info on Vivace City? I loved the underground in Colosseum, hope it has a similar vibe. I particularly like the layout of the blacked out concept map on the wiki... Anyway godspeed

>>28134989
>more average to easy
Uh either something big happened or your info is wrong because sage is supposed to be harder than a platinum nuzlocke, no?

>>28134456
>Light/Edgy?
As light as the main games

>Easy/Challenging
A fair bit harder than the main games

>>28135482
I'm just going by what I played of the demo. That might not have been the best indication though, or I may be remembering wrong.

>>28132501
Wow we toyed around with the idea that if we had Fairy what moms would get it but you somehow got almost none of them. Only the Pixies and Snogre line.

Sage will never finish.

>>28128482
Didn't think of that. I'll definitely do that.
Any other pokemon would make a good fairy type besides those three?

>>28137729
Just saw this post >>28132501
I agree with Snogre and maybe Nurshary.

Xochi and Xotec are already double type, but I'd argue that Fairy would be a better fit than Psychic (also more interesting imo)

>>28127709
I dont keep up to any of these threads or anything but I just saw the Op image and felt the need to comment.

Just from this snapshot you can see you're going for aesthetics rather than substance. There looks like a lot of empty space, thats pretty poor design especially in a pokemon game. Its going to become very tedious and boring to travel around if you put too much space between things. Its also the most common pitfall for rom hacks where they space things too far out.

>Sunday

> two years
> demo still doesn't get past the first gym
> meanwhile Pokemon Uranium is finished

Taking /vp/ out of this project was a huge mistake.

>>28138044
Uranium was 9 years development time.

>>28138061
Pokemon Sage is going on 5 years. It took them three just to push out the first gym. Now they've shot themselves in the foot and have no real proof they're even making progress.

>>28138156
Well, seeing as how a dev team had to come together from a mass of anonymous assholes and then create some sort of coherent group to work on it, I think it's understandable that they aren't blasting through the work.

>>28137647
That goes against the idea that Viipii is supposed to be a regular anon, hense Normal type.

>>28127709
Psi goat is so close i can taste it.

>>28139920
A regular anon being a fairy kinda works even better imo
coz you know, we're all faggots

I wouldn't mind if Viipii was the only fairy type in the game

>>28135440
>Love the no fairy and megas

Change is bad

Someone post the dex

>>28138156
What the fuck would having it remain on /vp/ solve? Do you really think that having sage remain here during waves of shitposting really make it get done faster? Really?

How much is coded and how much has dialogue been done for it? What are the encounters for fishing off the pier? What are the item give aways? Hobodojo when?

What's the status of Andante? What's the lighthouse puzzle about? What's the reward for it?

Can a team of 20 monkeys write a better plot or has the day been saved?

>>28132366

Not really. Dragons were overpowered because most of them had great stats and incredible movepools.
On the flipside, most fairies are weak as shit.

>>28132653

>>28132501
Why does everyone assume Nurshary to be a candidate for fairy type?

There is nothing that screams fairy about Nurshary and every time someone throws a list of potential fairy type pokemon, people pick Nurshary.

Are people really that stupid?

>>28131607
Not true in the slightest.

>>28131364

You really need to make yourself less obvious, Dunky.
You're not asking the hard hitting questions like you think you are, you're just coming off like a pathetic ex-boyfriend who can't let go of the one thing that gave them purpose in life.

>>28143000
Awwwwwww thanks cutie.

Why can't you fish off the pier? Seems silly considering there's a surfable route directly north of Dronia. Good place for some early access to some ocean mons, a la Vermillion City.

>gym's been slow
Hasn't the gym been on hold for like a year now? Do we have to throw money at the guy to map it? If some guy could throw money for some banners, surely someone could donate money to force the gym done, no?

>dat puzzle
That's adorable. Have more of that shit.

I haven't been really following Sage, mainly waiting for a full release. I'm just glad there seems to be legit progress, since it looks great.

That said, how far does the Demo go?

There's a lot of facets to it, which in themselves aren't that time-restrictive. You've got asset creation, QC, and implementation on top of writing and plotting.
The thing that makes these things take a while for quality™ is that nobody is a professional Pokemon fangame creator. Even though we've got about 20 people actively on board, we're all adults who only get busier with each passing day. Fangames are a hobby, and work is often relegated to a couple hours in the evening, provided your energy level permits it.
Real games take a couple years with a team of people working the 9-5 to hash it out. When your staff is a bunch of overgrown nerds with increasingly serious jobs and lives, it's inevitable that things don't chug along at a brisk pace.

As long as we're having fun, it doesn't matter a whole lot how long it takes. A love letter is much better when you spend a whole evening poring over it, as opposed to scrawling it down in the 3 minutes before 5th Period Biology.

We're amateurs with zero experience and game development is a lot harder than it looks like on the surface.
Plus for sage, we had 2 years stuck on this pit stain of a board, and despite what some butthurt anons might lead you to believe, it is not a good environment for making a game. Especially not one of the worst boards on this site.

There's no responsibility or incentive to get it out quickly other than a lack of patience. With gamefreak they have their bottom line to consider, time is money. With fan projects time is not money, it's just time.
Also a consideration is this is a side thing for people. Because the people that are perpetually available tend not the have skills.

>and so you need to accept the alternative of a tripfag circlejerk offsite

>>28145788
basically, yes.

>>28145788
What would having it on /vp/ offer it? It's still the same people working on it and posting inthread. Not much changes for the better. 99% of content creators went with the move offsite. Who is going to actually work on the game on /vp/ that isnt already?

>>28145889
The fact the exodus worked proves that nobody left behind actually did anything.

/vp/ should make its own pokemon fan-game that purely stays on /vp/.

>>28145922
ask clover

>>28145922
Because that worked for Clover.
/vp/ is not a good work environment, let alone board.

>>28145922
there have been two fangames that have left the board because of stagnation and shitposting, and one fangame left dead in the water. Do you understand what a common denominator is?

No.

We had ourselves a hearty hue after clover left. They gave us shit for leaving, and now they're gone too.

>anon proves his worth by not being able to count to 3

>>28146073
sounds like /vp/.

>>28146051
>and one fangame left dead in the water
>one
I realise you're a bit new but the number is a tad higher than just aus

>>28146132
sorry I don't count shitpostathons that last less than a month as /vp/ fangames

go try to resurrect that rainbow power ranger digimon whatever thing it was and see how that goes.
