Reborn City-- Black smog and acidic water garnish the crumbling structures along the skyline. Alleys and streets alike fester with disaster and crime. The metropolis stands, a decaying blemish on the once-vibrant region.

This world needs a hero.

Pokemon Reborn pushes the envelope of the Pokemon series. Experience a never-before-seen layer of strategy with the all-original Field Effects, using the terrain to outplay and overwhelm your opponent! Collect, train and battle with all 721 Pokemon available in-game! And take on Gym Leaders of all 18 types as you fight to restore Reborn to prosperity!

It's going to take more than just a Pokemon Master to tackle this challenge.
Are you ready?

I keep meaning to download this...

[lazlo falconi]

This is the first I've heard of it. *Downloads*

[Tau]

You made this? If so impressive. I haven't played a Pokemon game since the original Gold version. Well I checked out Black & White but only for like an hour or so. Should post the game up at RMN.

[Amethyst]

Yep, and maybe. I haven't been there in years, kinda burned out on the place...

4th release is well under way.

[Amethyst]

Updated the first post to actually be a post (if it seems a little awk, it's because I copied it from the one at Pokecommunity) + 4th release is out.

And they say Kasper and Tau are the only ones still in game dev... >:c

[Stars]

You just need to post here more often~

I was going to add you but then I was like A) I'm sure Bear has been member of the week at least once B) He hasn't posted in a while C) He isn't so petty.

I GUESS I WAS WRONG.

[Amethyst]

I GUESS YOU WERE

nawjk I don't really care, just pokin'.
I check this place everyday I just usually don't have much to say. :<

[Tau]

Is the music all original as well? It was funny though having the choice of my first pokemon I still preferred the choice of Charmander haha.

[Amethyst]

Most of it is by GlitchxCity. She does awesome remixes of songs from the actual games. I did the Center and City music though. Working on making variations to the city track so it doesn't become so monotonous.

[Stars]

Has anyone else here tried this game yet? It's being laggy, and I'm wondering if it's just me.

[Amethyst]

It isn't just you, it does lag on some lesser computers, but um, I'm designing it on a netbook, so it really shouldn't be too bad... ^^;

[Stars]

I blame Vista on principle.

[Monkeydog]

It's probably because you're running a multi-core processor which I believe doesn't run well with RMXP.

Go into the task manager as the game is running and find the process. Right click and go to Change Affinity or something, and set it to less CPUs and see if it runs better.

Finally downloaded this! =D I'm starting with Cyndaquil~!

The two big suggestions/things I'd love to see already (aka two battles in) would be:
-the option to customize keys. I'm not a huge fan of hitting the space bar every time I want to continue the conversation, so I've been hitting the enter key instead (since that works just as well)...but I'd love to be able to hit, say, the left shift key instead.
-a clearer change of music when entering battles. When the vertical banner pops up to show that I'm entering a battle, there's just a dead moment in the music, or otherwise the music doesn't change from the casual town music (or wherever you are)...and when the battle actually starts, the music isn't dramatic enough for me to get the feeling of "oh! battle! Let's do this!!!!"

I'm excited to get to play this though! Even though it already feels weird since I knew the gym leaders once upon a time, and clearly some of them have changed...haha. XD It's great to see familiar faces though.

Edit: So I just reached my first out-of-the-center battle, and that music is much more like it. =D

Also, your 'exit' button on the menu doesn't work. =/

[Stars]

I've been meaning to have another go at this. I just haven't been playing games in general lately. =/

[Amethyst]

I'm alive!
So I actually released Episode 5 a while ago, like at the start of November a while ago but tooottally spaced updating this topic, so really sorry. D:
But that's fixed now.
Aaaand the download for Episode 5 has been patched with a couple crash-fixes (secret pool, shelly's gym, gang leader battles)
So if you found any of those errors give it a re-download.

/>-the option to customize keys. I'm not a huge fan of hitting the space bar every time I want to continue the conversation, so I've been hitting the enter key instead (since that works just as well)...but I'd love to be able to hit, say, the left shift key instead.

I would LOVE to be able to do this, and I know it is possible but I have not found the script mod that I need yet. x.x This is definitely a priority though.

Let's do this!!!!"

Yeaaaaah, I see what you mean. That is only with the rival music, which several other people have said they really like actually, but I do get that kind of dead moment feeling. I might see if I can find some sort of transition to piece to come up with the banner.
Which is horizontal, not vertical! D:

/>Also, your 'exit' button on the menu doesn't work. =/

What? That jerk...

/>I've been meaning to have another go at this. I just haven't been playing games in general lately. =/

Well, you know you can always change that... c:
