It is Shiv, yes. More specifically it's his original artwork which looks just slightly different from how he turned out in game. Also to note something, I'll be addressing some other questions I've had in the announcement I mentioned, which should be out in the next week or two with Episode 4 following a week after that.

Wait's almost over. Happy belated New Years, everyone.

Or fight fire with fire assuming you picked a fire starter.

I'm not at all familiar with Apple stuff. The only solution I have is to delete all .mid sound files from audio/bgm. This has always resolved issues in the past.

Thank you! The game is meant to be difficult - but not impossible. Create a strategy and if necessary change your team - you will get there. As an update for the rest of you - an official update and announcement about the upcoming Episode 4 is on its way, expect it soon!

I've been thinking about a variation on the first idea for a while actually and will most likely bring it in. The problem with your second idea is that I want players to have to live with their decisions and this really does mean that players take the decisions more seriously. If they could simply go back then the decision would become far less serious because "oh, I can just rewind". Hopefully you see my stance on that.

Already exists in scripting - will come into play during a later Episode. Painful and funny, I like it.

This speaks volumes. I love it.

Your input on Episode 4 Hello yes it is me again. This isn't really an update to be honest, but more of an opportunity. When contemplating what things I would like to be in Episode 4 I realized that I haven't really been interacting with the community as much as I'd like lately so I figured hell, why not. I would like to know what features you would like to see in Episode 4. This does not include items, Pokemon or sidequests etc but asides from these your ideas can be as broad as you'd like. Feel free to jot down ideas in the thread or PM me - if your idea is good enough

I just wanted to clarify a few things about Episode 4. 1: Sun and Moon content will not be present in Episode 4. This includes new Pokemon, items and any changes that accompanied the new games. This will hopefully be in Episode 5. 2: New protagonists will hopefully be in Episode 4, but I can't gurantee this with my current schedule. I would truly appreciate some help on this front with spriting - any help is appreciated. 3: A release date? Initial beta release will hopefully be by the end of January with the final bug fix release (4.1) coming by the end of F

I'm not the most terrific composer - only a couple tracks in Desolation are original. The music in Blackview City happens to be from HDSoundi's channel. I wanted to make this post to also let everyone know development is still very much in progress. I've opted to have less updates and sneak peeks for this Episode to dodge the possibility of spoilers, which I really want to limit from here on out as my game is entirely story driven.

I fixed the Emily bug, as far as I'm aware. Looking at the map, talking to the girl outside the Gym door will unlock the door to the house with the purple triangle above it. That's certainly a glitch. I would like to know how it occurred, preferably through PM.

Probably not. While adding in the new data into the PBS files is simple (albeit tedious and extremely boring) the spriting work to be done will take a long time for the whole fangame community, as it did when gen 6 came out.

I have the MultipleForms script for Meowstic, It's just not working. I plan on looking over it and fixing it before E4's beta comes out. If I can't find a solution I'll be sure to send the script your way.

I haven't figured out a way to fix the gender form issue with Meowstic, but I may end up just making a vendor of sorts where a player can 'modify' the Meowstic's form for credits or something.

ugh. The premise of Desolation is the conflict between dreams and reality and to what extent one could side with either idea. I wish to create a real conflict around such a concept - nothing like the ideological "conflict" Naruto threw together. From what I've seen, Naruto's take on it is just another simple "bad guy has naively okay plan that's still bad" trope. No, in Desolation there is (and will be) far more development behind what I believe to be an incredibly interesting idea and through the (ulterior) motives of characters I hope to prove that it's not so lackluster and obvious as stu

Develop your team more and create a better strategy. Unfortunately, everyone finds certain Gym's easy or hard depending on the team and strategy they make - Tristan was previously nerfed and for this reason some I have had contact with find him TOO easy. I will not be nerfing Tristan anymore - especially considering how powerful his previous team was with Meloetta and Snorlax.

Well, we can always change that.

1: I'm flattered. 2: Yes and yes.

Yes. I'm aware that it will add a huge chunk to development time but it's something I've always planned.

I'm glad you're liking the game. To all: I am aware of the bugs surrounding the game's intro. I was considering releasing another build but on my internet it takes an enormous amount of time to do one upload. The bugs ARE fixed, but you'll have to wait until Episode 4 to see those fixes.

PM me about this with your save please and thank you.

You keep the badge you obtained from Tristan. I've decided on the two types you won't see in Gym's, but you'll have to see for yourself.

Thanks! Yes, there will be a slight decrease in the amount of battles in Episode 4. There are only 16 gyms however. ...

If you think you've really stuffed up the puzzle then simply leave the room and re-enter it again. The puzzle does work but sometimes strange things happen if the wrong order is done. Correct order is: This has not been forgotten, just kept in reserve.
