Also: too many trees, the forced grass in the little nook is too long to be worth exploring, your ledges are shit and you haven't done any tree shading. Forced grass areas are too large, the pathing is retarded, and what's with the long empty corridor on the bottom?
Route 2? Or Route 24? Did you even conceptualize your project before you started? Did you bother reading a mapping tutorial?

hi /vp/, it's been a while since I've posted here, aside from the discord.
I've been doing the game Pokemon Alchemist for a long while, getting feedback and doing tests on /vp/.
Anyways, I've been adding more and more and I'm curious what /vp/ thinks of the content, since I've based so much before on what they have to say.
Here's the linkeroo:

You only need 3 steps in the grass to travel from north to south. Too few when compared to the standard game.

>>31631620
Is the water surf-able?

The red building on the top-left corner looks like it has access to surf spots on both sides of the door. The field with yellow flower next to it also looks like its made to be surfed to.

Geosenge Town

That sounds very similar to one of the tracks in SM

Any links for Rising sun/Waning Moon?

>>31634123
I'd look at old English or Celtic names for gates, doors, passages, ports and construct it from there.
>Middle English merger of Old English dor (neuter; plural doru) "large door, gate," and Old English duru (fem., plural dura) "door, gate, wicket;" both from Proto-Germanic *dur- (source also of Old Saxon duru, Old Norse dyrr, Danish dor, Old Frisian dure, Old High German turi, German Tür).

New PKHex isnt working with Winebittler after the update.
Anyone got a link to a working version that does?

Heh I knew somebody would make this joke. Considering Kalos is so accurately based on Northern France, Geosenge Town is certainly the Carnac Stones.
Read a book. Standing stones are extremely prevalent in European contries. Ireland, England, France, etc.
Now, I need a name.

>>31637192
Dormammu?

>>31638969
Everyone knows that they're all over Europe. No one said they weren't. You're clearly /r/versmart.

>>31638987
I've come to make a bargain.

>>31638987
I was thinking more like Tyr or Tor followed by another name; Tyr/Tor being a prefix that indicates a tower/mound (like Telvanni Tel or irl Tel as in Tel Aviv) followed by something descriptive of that place. Look at constructed languages, for instance - I get a lot of inspiration from Tolkien's elven languages, as well as making shit up out of proto Indo European/old Germanic family/Greek/Latin/Hebrew.

What's your game's unique battle gimmick? If it's Mega Evolution or Z-Moves, it's shit and unoriginal.

>>31631099
Spice work on gaia

>>31638805
Don't know why they replaced that. Here's the old one.
http://pastebin.com/hMRJR8KX
Keep in mind it has not been updated since 2015 because I'm fucking lazy. Maybe the lack of updates is why they removed it.

>>31639121
Are there any engines for that allow real time battling? Like the ability to dodge and time attacks/combos? Because that's what Pokemon needs.

Calling you out for thinking any usage of standing stones is ripping off Geosenge

Anyway, this is what it looks like in game.
The center stone is based on the stone the sword of Arthur was pulled from. Discount Stonehenge was built around it.

>>31639283
Tell me more, this is interesting. Is it solely based on Arthurian myth or do you have other stuff in there?
And on the subject - why do people seem to think their game needs be based on an IRL 'region'? Part of the fun is building a fantasy world with Pokemon in it.

Complete Gen 2-style Alolamon spritesheet. Some sprites needs higher-quality replacements but all are accounted for. This is the fastest I've seen something like this get done, XY took like three years and it had less Pokémon overall.

>>31631498
I usually hate it when maps are too square, but it really works in this one for some reason.

>>31640150
Pretty fucking good, lad!

>>31639907
The idea is the stone functions as a control key for the innermost doors. Once Empyrial, the legendary pokemon based on Excalibur+Seraphim, is plunged into the keystone, the Stone Ring activates.
l want Not!Stonehenge to function as a Bifrost like device. A system for mass teleportation.
This knight templar E.T. tries to use it to burn away all the sin in the world which of course would cause global catastrophe.

Thanks anon

>>31642005
No, what motivates the player to (presumably) attempt to stop Team Cross?
Don't tell me they just keep running into them.
Don't give me some prophecy bullshit.
I'd like to see a shred of originality.

>>31642672
>Don't tell me they just keep running into them.
You mean, as it's been since Red/Blue?
I suppose at one point, Black Knight (Team Cross has a chess motif) abducts Plus's family because of his/her constant interfering.

Also, as their plan is to "cleanse" the region of corruption-unleashing Empyrial's purifying flames upon the populace, they begin hoarding pokemon (Noah's ark) for storage in the Paradise Project based on England's real life Eden Project. They take a NPC's pokemon and Plus must go and get it back.

>>31642672
Of course, I'm always open. To suggestions.

>>31643767
>You mean, as it's been since Red/Blue?
Do what you want but just because GF does it doesn't mean it's good.

>>31644078
I figured if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Although, I don't picture Plus actually hunting down Team Cross because that's not the main focus of the game. Plus is set to be a Battle Club champion/Pokemon Master.

>>31644231
Pokémon has silent protagonists, so it's hard to give them solid motivations.

I liked the way B2/W2 handled it. Your rival Hugh has dialog that gives *him* a clear reason to fight--Team Plasma stole his sister's Pokémon--and it's safe to assume that you support your friend.

>>31645628
Well, beating gyms/completing trials is sort of required.

>>31645628
You have to be careful with that, in my opinion. It can work well, like with Hugh, but if you go too far with it the game ends up turning into "The Adventures of Rival ft. [player]." Creating a Hugh is fine, creating a Lillie is not fine.

I wish. Pokemon Generations (the fan game, not the anime miniseries) is the closest anyone has ever gotten to what a Pokemon game should be imo. But the project was abandonned and he never released the source code.

I wish someone would make a similar engine in which you directly import the official Pokemon models and animations. Something like this would never get finished if we have to make all assets by hand, but we happen to have a bunch of models and animations of every single Pokemon at our disposal.

>>31643630
I don't think this includes fangames.

>>31650561
That is regrettable. Pokemon would certainly benefit from a drastic shakeup in mechanics again instead of episodic gimmicks.
