Kind of hate to say this, but I like . . . Likes. I, uh, enjoy being able to acknowledge to people that I've seen a post without posting something spammy like "Okay!" or "That's good!"

Disclosure: I do not write. I either pilfer plotlines from other sources or have other people do the writing for me. I like the rest of the work though. I wish more people would consider this. Side characters and sidequests should be there to enhance the original concept, not turn it into a...

Nintendo definitely does not make their games in RPG Maker.

They don't? o_0 Lol, what do you mean by this?

Thank you! In a few weird ways it's come full circle though, when this was still Pokémon it was a pretty field-move-centric game and now it's kind of the same thing . . . just with real birds instead of Pokémon. It should be fun to make.

All right, let's do this. So a few people may remember the train wreck curiosity that was Pokémon Shadow Unbound that I was doing a year-ish ago. And that I gave it up and stuff when Nintendo started being a butt about copyright. Well, I recently realized that I'm still working on it,it's just...

"I really wish they'd fix that dang thermostat already."

Yes . . . no . . . maybe? I'm currently enrolled in a game design major at a community college but I'm cynical enough that I somewhat doubt I'll ever have a job working at Bethesda or something. Especially since the "game" I turned in for class this semester was a dumpster fire. If I can ever...

This isn't really what you asked but I think it's sometimes interesting to see what (or if) types of gamers go down what types of routes. Like, do the super-aggressive people go straight for the Espeon, while the more analytical people go for the Vaporeon? . . . or, you know, they've played...

It just now hit me what the world map is. Cute. :3

That's a long and hotly-contested thread on its own but the short answer is "if they really want to they'll do it regardless of whether you use fakémon or not." Edit: that is, if you're still using graphics, sounds, or anything else that they have trademarked/copyrighted.

I think it goes without saying that I like Dragonite. It's yellow, it's derpy-looking, it has squiggly antennae and it still hits like a truck. To pad this out a little I'm going to steal Hematite's idea and do one for every generation. Note that these are subject to change. Most of them are...

This isn't a bad idea, but if you're going to go this far wouldn't it be more effective to just use conventional source control like Git or something? (I speak as someone who never actually learned how to use source control himself)

Whenever I need inspiration I just boot up Skyrim and run around the overworld for a while until I find something interesting. "Interesting" could be anything from an unusual piece of terrain geometry to an object like a chair or other set piece used in a peculiar manner. In theory, anyway, I...

I think when you get the Pokémon should be heavily dependent on what the story is about. On one extreme you could play the "amnesia" card (:thinking face:) and give the player the starter almost immediately and let them figure out why on their own time, while on the other extreme maybe you could...

I'm pretty sure this is understood by this point in the thread but I'm going to point out that this applies to basically ALL arguments related to "playing the game takes a lot of time," particularly tasks that are grindy and boring, not just egg hatching. Remember, as the game creators the power...

Not a Pokémon game, or a fan game of any sort, but let's see if this works! Looking to recruit Writer, and potentially an artist capable of designing repeating (or close to repeating) textures. I have put thousands of nerd · hours into this so far so I do not intend to mess around. Please be...

Finally replaced my computer recently and haven't really had a chance to muck up the desktop yet. Yes, that's MS Paint and Notepad pinned to the task bar. Will edit with the desktop of my old one in a minute. Edit: yeah it's a disaster.

So when it comes to scattering items around the game world, do you have any strategies? Do you throw down an item (hidden or otherwise) in every single nook and cranny available, trying to make the most of negative possibility space, or do you use items more sparingly? Do harder-to-access areas...

If you've got any kind of moderate interest in JRPGs have a look at Bravely Default (and if you like that one, Bravely Second). It's not maybe the best game on the 3DS but it should keep you busy for a while.
