A small sample of the OverlayUI I've been planning for the game, it will include things like Time, Location Name, Health Bars, Aura, Thirst, Hunger, and Stamina (running will now use up stamina)

when can a playable release of the game be expected?

Probably within 3-4 months, the project is a one-man project at this point.

At this moment, I'm still laying the foundations of the game system.
I'm in the middle of developing the Survival System (player needs), hunger, thirst, sleep, health, stamina, which will change the traditional Pokémon game dynamics quite a bit.

Teleportation to a Pokémon Center has been disabled, and in case you don't have Pokémon available for the fight, a type of custom battle is being developed with wild Pokémon where they can hurt the trainer.

Now you'll really need to manage your inventory very well, and the repellents will probably become your best friends if you want to survive.

The Relationship System (friendships, and romance) is being implemented, it works in a similar way to a traditional dating simulator, with affinity points and affection points.

On the other hand, the Progression System, at the moment, only has 4% of the variables initialized for Kanto. I'm using 100% Ruby code to manage progress, at the expense of the engine's native Variables and Switches, which are only used for certain parallel and automatic events. This has allowed me to get around RPG Maker XP's 5000 variable and switch limit.
