the sound quality of the title screen music is horrid. you know how flashing colors give people seizures? well my ears are having a seizure x.x its clicking and the balance is going from left to right. hmm, but after a minute or two the song changes and it sounds more like a normal song.


the intro screens are a bit, sloppy. its hard to read the text. the screen where you give thanks looks like it was scribbled by a 1st grader.


for some reason i had to reinstall the rpgmaker fonts to have them display correctly. i never had to do that before.

so ive got a screen that shows the controls. and without any kind of screen transition or even music, it cuts right into the story i assume. looks like a conversation is going on. oh, i see, its some weird convo with mew. i didnt like this part. it was very pointless and went on way too long. i get your playing off that famous intro dialogue with the professor, but you took it to an extreme that it should not go to.


the dialogue is touch and go. some of it is good but then you say stuff like "thought up 3 year old, maybe younger" and "google it" bleh this turned me right off.


in the world of pokemon there are no dogs. "dogs" are just a type of pokemon. this is starting to sound like a joke game, or at least a game that is not seriously trying to recreate the world of pokemon. which is fine, i guess.

the whole inro scene wasn't my thing, but at least the dialogue after that was overall better. no major complaints except maybe there is too much dialogue in some spots.

the heros house has a lot of empty space, at least i assume its the heros house. why does he have a library in his house?

the slow walk speed was pretty unbearable, it almost made me quit but i pressed on.


there isn't much detail, unless things are a bit unfinished. for example, when i catch my first pkmn. its standing there, then it turns into a pokeball, and i hear the sound. i didnt see the pokeball fly through the air from hero to pokemon, i didnt see it move or shake at all. i was kind of expecting that.

some of the sounds effects and music are a bit low quality. the battle background was a bit low quality. the charmander charset isnt the best, but its not terrible.

i did like how battle worked. the layout of the pkmn was good. the equip options look like an interesting take on the weapon/armor/sheild setup. but it doesnt have great quality overall.


the layout of the town was ok. a tad square and not very inspiring, but its early on so whatever.

the way you handle not letting the hero go certain places is a bit annoying though. if i can't go anywhere except one place, why even give me control. there are no NPC's, nothing to explore. its just a slow walk to check everything until i find the one i need to go to. just make it an automated cutscene. even though i had control i didnt feel like i was playing the game at all. i skipped past loads of text. there was just too much too soon.


after i talked to the professor, she said she was missing something or that i had to look for something but i couldnt find it. i dunno, i didnt feel interesting in looking anymore so i quit. i probably overlooked something, was it in the house? i thought she said it was around town. it takes a very long time to get from hitting NEW GAME to that point in the story so id be reluctant to play again :/ i just want to be able to skip all the intro nonsense if i had to play again. guess i should have saved, but overall i just wasnt drawn into the game.

im a fan of pokemon but not of this game. im on the fence about whether i want to try again some time, but it least has some potential. try and focus more on the gameplay and less on the story in the beginning of the game. ease me into it. if i played again i would want to open it in the editor and get rid the intro and up my walking speed.
