Recruiting Project Azurite is recruiting!

• Project Title: Pokémon Azurite

It aims to stay close to the classic Pokémon formula by sending the player on a journey through the region of Kuria to discover new Pokémon species, tackle the Gym Challenge and thwart an evil team’s plans. There will be innovations and twists along the way to break away from the expected clichés.

We have a great team of talented developers to work together and make the game come to life. Progress has been slow but steady and we hope to accelerate it with our first public recruitment post.

Looks really promising and amazing. If you put the National dex I will spend hours playing it. (by the way, I hope you get the artists)
