Notes

If you want to join the team, you can contact us over on Discord, Twitter, and even Relic Castle DM's! We are currently looking for help in the pixel-art department who is experienced in Gen 4/5 style and can work with making trainers, fakemon, regional variants, and icons​

 

[VanillaSunshine]

What an amazingly large project!
Please remember to include the full credits for Pokemon Essentials. They can be found in the credits script!

Also, please be sure to credit users for everything that was made by them!
Akizakura16 is credited for her tiles that were included in the Parallax Resource Pack, but she also needs to be credited for her Summary Screen UIs. Please make sure to double-check your credits to ensure everyone is given the correct amount of recognition for their resources!

I'm glad to hear it! I've been working on this project for a while now, so I hope you enjoy it when it's finally released!

 

[Vxpor]

Update: After many members of our discord asking for more contest time, we decided to push back the end date to September 18th at 11:59 PM EST

 

[Vxpor]

Update: Today is the last day to enter the art contest! If you are still interested in submitting your art in the contest, you still have until 11:59 PM EST tonight! If you can't submit in time or are seeing this in the future, don't fret because we will be hosting more events/contests in the future! After 11:59 PM EST tonight, all submissions will be closed.

 

[Vxpor]

Late note: The September contest has been completed and the winners have been chosen!

In Third Place we have: Husk Hiatus with their unnamed Legendary!

Thanks to everyone who participated in our first contest/event since announcing our fangame! This was a huge success and we hope to hold more events/competitions in the future! And last but not least,

Spoiler: Update

We have some news coming in the near future, so stay tuned!

 

[Vxpor]

Bump: Region maps for Anphelio and Pansperma have been added!

Bump:
With the Relic Castle Winter Jam #2 coming to a close, my project, Pokémon Suit & Tie has officially been released!

Since that project has been launched, Pokémon Tabula Rasa will transition back into full swing! If you haven't already, be sure to follow our socials, as we have some very exciting information coming up in the next couple of weeks/months!

 

[ArcWisel]

Can't wait to play the game :) Altough I probably should reccomend to finish Tabula Rasa first and then worry about the other two games so you don't get burnt out. Huge games like yours means lots of bug fixing too.

I'm also looking forward to the Secret Bases. Haven't seen them since Insurgence

 

[Vxpor]

Bump:
Updated the post and fixed grammar mistakes

[Vxpor]

Bump: Hey everybody! It's been a minute since I've posted anything under this forum. I would like to say that the team and I are still hard at work on an upcoming playable version of Pokemon Tabula Rasa and we are excited to reveal what we've all been working on with all of you very soon. In the meantime, I would like to give a couple of quick updates on what's been happening thus far.

1st Things First: While we do have a fantastic team already that is working on the project, we would definitely appreciate more help from members of the community. You can read more on the recruitment page that I will link at the bottom of this comment but the main positions we are looking for are mainly Scripters, Spriters, and Artists. While we are accepting other, more niche, positions, these are the main three we are needing the most.

2nd: Our game's discord server has grown over the past year to an astounding 185 members and counting! Because of the awesome amount of feedback we've received over that past year, I wanted to find a way to reward our fans by showing off one of the main things we've been working. To do so, we decided to set a member goal on our Discord of 200 members. Once we hit 200 members, we will reveal a big announcement that we've really been working a while on, as well as a couple more details about the game and its development. If you would like to join the discord for the game, the link for that can be found below as well.

3rd and Final Note: It's really been a little over a year since we've started to work on this project and I really can't thank everyone enough, inside and outside the project for their contributions and support. This has been an amazing journey and we are super excited to take it to the next step over the upcoming months. The feedback we've received, good and bad, has really helped us shape this project and its inner-workings to be the best they can possibly be and I really can't thank all of you enough for that. We really appreciate all the support and really couldn't have done any of this without all of you out there.

Seriously, From the Bottom of My Heart, Thank You,
Vxpor

Bump: The Tabula Rasa team is very proud to announce the project's new and official logo. This has been in the works for a long time and we're very relieved we can finally show you all a piece of what we've been working on. Thanks to everyone for helping us hit 200 members as well as sticking with us through everything.

Make sure to join our game's discord, linked in the main post, or you will miss out on some exciting updates regarding Tabula Rasa's development. Thanks to everyone for the support on the project thus far!
