Released Vinemon: Sauce Edition

About the Game

Vinemon: Sauce Edition is a Pokémon Fan Game made in
RPG Maker XP with the Pokémon Essentials Engine.

The game is set in a new Region known as 'Fanoth', which
used to be a region that was once believed that no person
would or should ever be able to enter.

Our goal while developing this game was to create a love
note for the Vinesauce Community that we've been in for years.

With that in mind, however, the game itself can be enjoyed by people
unfamiliar with the community and the jokes/memes around such.
As everything fits within the world as if it was always part of it.

Vinemon: Sauce Edition, while isn't a challenge hack, is balanced to
have every Vinemon be viable in battle with each one fitting into a niche
perfect for one's team. We also believed in the idea that if all of them are
balanced to be broken then none of them are broken.

This has allowed us to create an extremely fun and interesting gameplay
all of which can be taken online with the Cable Club.

Here are some images to get a gist of your adventure.
Note some of these do spoil some moments so click at your own risk:

Spoiler: Screenshots

You are Vinny Vinesauce a streamer from Staten Island, New York.
On one Sunday night, you planned to play a mysterious game
made by your community titled Vinemon: Sauce Edition.



The game is loaded up but your house’s power
flickers on and off while the internet fully cuts out.
Do not presume this was the doing of vineRizon.
The power that calls you to this world is far greater
than that of those internet providers.

As you exit your house you find you aren’t in Statin
Island anymore but in a region called “Fanoth”.
As you look for answers to why you were brought
here you discover that Imakuni was also brought to
this world and is now your next-door rival. When you
begin to share notes a sudden explosion happens
and you both rush outside to see the cause of it.

You discover the professor panicked and the
only Vinemon he has left for you to use is a
Water-Typed Vinemon named Scoot.

After being given Scoot and a battle with your
rival & friend Imakuni, You are given the VineGear
to keep track of quests, manage your PC, and check
the map of the region.

As you overlook the map you begin to
realize this world is strikingly familiar. Yet these places
feel completely different from the ones you visited
in the past on stream.



As you travel the region you will meet many of the
characters you’ve created and encountered while
streaming. This includes iconic video game mascots,
Original Characters (donut steel), Celebrities, Memes,
Streamers, YouTubers, and many more!

Explore, Battle, and Catch in Vinemon before it’s too
late. After all, you still got a Sunday Stream to put on
and you can’t leave chat alone unattended.​

BIG UPDATE v1.1.0!

Vinemon: Sauce Edition

Vinemon: Sauce Edition is a Monster Catching Fan Game made in RPG Maker XP Engine which is coined as 'A Interactive Shitpost full of soul.' The game is set in a new Region known as 'Fanoth', which used to be a region that was once believed that no person would or should ever be able to enter.

Patch Notes:

 

[Muffyang]

With all the hard work and passion that got poured into this, it's pretty disappointing that the streamers it was made specifically for tossed it aside after about 20 minutes or so across the entire group. This is easily the most notable "complete" fangame release of the year and debatably one of the best overall.
Real heartwrenching how you haven't gotten the praise or attention a game of this scope and quality deserves.

 

[AlizarinRed]

Overhaul of our Cable Club (thanks @Vendily) and more!

The rules are as follows:

Doubles Format​

6 Vinemon @ Level 100 (levels will autoscale)​

Species Clause (Can't have duplicate species in your team)​

Item Clause (Can't have duplicate held items in your team)​

Sleep Clause (Can't put more than 1 opposing Vinemon to sleep at a time during battle)​

Freeze Clause (Can't freeze more than 1 opposing Vinemon at a time during battle)​

You have from now until Feb 10th to prepare for this tournament. To participate, I will need a screenshot of the party you plan on using, including their hold items and movesets. If these differ from your party you fight in the tournament with, you will be disqualified. You may update your party as many times as you want prior to the 10th of February by DMing @thepsynergist your team. After that date, you will not be allowed to change your setup.

The matches will take place during the week of the 11th through the 17th. This is to make sure people have time to complete their matches. I will post brackets on the 10th.

You will need to use the Vinemon Discord to stream your fights.: https://discord.gg/ZPpe8Fc

Whoever wins the tournament, will get a Vinemon with their choice of any custom move or ability as a Mystery Gift for all! And with that, good luck!

 

[AlizarinRed]

Pretty big update!
Added EXP All, Level Caps Option, Easy EXP Gain if you have Level Caps to reach the cap easier, some move adjustments, moveset adjustments, a couple of bug fixes, and added a new Tunnel to the Day Care to help quicken egg hatching with ease, among many more things!

 

[snorlax5]

I am really enjoying this game so far. The Vinemon and the comedic style to the game feels super refreshing. I'm in the desert area and is there a reason for kicking the yellow vinemon ball around?

Nope, that's just for fun! Also, that's a reference to DesertP, which the ball is a Desert Pogona Ball Plush. It's sort of a meme image.

 

[snorlax5]

I just beat the Fanoth League and before I beat the game Im trying to finish the Pokedex. Where do you obtain Apple? Also this game is definitely one of my favorites fan made games I ever played.

There are a couple of ways, in Regalis there's a wonder trade NPC that trades based on similar base totals. If you breed a Scoot you could get Apple or Cherry that way. You could also check the TVs that sometimes report outbreaks which will have a chance to report Apple, Cherry, or Scoot Outbreaks (among others) in Animal Forest (route 1). We also have a mystery gift that will be dropping after we finish our first Vinemon tournament that will release a celebratory Apple. This should be released any day now. (might even be today!)

Also, we appreciate the kind words <3
Been really hard to get the game out there as lots of people seem to think they won't understand most of it when we built it for a general audience as well.
