Developers Caz Posted December 12, 2020 Developers Share Posted December 12, 2020 There's no real theme. It's a pretty sporadic process where I come up with a series of names for an area and then pick the one that a) fits the area best and b) fits well in conjunction with other town names. There's no real in-depth process. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrystalStar Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 When you guys made Jarred, did you anticipate him to becom such a damn big meme? Seriously, I'm seeing too many Jarred abominations nowadays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developers Caz Posted December 13, 2020 Developers Share Posted December 13, 2020 I made Jarred in Episode 1 (back in 2015) when I was working on Desolation alone. Did I anticipate it? Of course. His rise was inevitable. 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Progfan_r Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 What are the inspirations for the main NPCs? For instance, I am quite sure Shiv is based on Izaya from Durarara and that Connor is based on Fern from Reborn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kool Aid Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 What was the process behind choosing which pokemon would be available as starters on the beach? Additionally, were there any pokemon that juuuust nearly became starters, but ended up being cut/decided against? Also, not a question but I just finished this game the other day and holy hell, y'all knocked it out of the park with this. Someone recommended this to me when I was looking for similar games after finishing Rejuvenation, and this game 100% filled the Rejuv-shaped void. The gameplay is challenging yet still fair and overall pretty fun. The story is super intriguing and broke through my bad habit of zoning out and skimming plots, I was completely hooked. The level design is solid (I honestly didn't even mind Blackview that much). The art is incredible and compliments the game perfectly. Huge props to everyone involved in making this. I'll finish this off with an actual question: Is Connor a tsundere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why was this created, who decided this had to exist tbh the Dev team and I had a massive laugh with it, seeing everyone as Jarred and even the Aces was funny af, so props for that LOL 3 hours ago, Kool Aid said: What was the process behind choosing which pokemon would be available as starters on the beach? Additionally, were there any pokemon that juuuust nearly became starters, but ended up being cut/decided against? So! To start off, I've mentioned this before but in EP5, I decided to axe 5/8 of the original starters from the beach in EP4, those being Sandile, Flabebe, Growlithe, Espurr and Sewaddle. The main reason behind these axes were well, Sewaddle early on as a "starter" is really bad, considering the first two gyms are Fire and Flying, it's just haha Hard Mode. Flabebe and Growlithe were axed due to them being stone evolutions, and I wanted to make it so the player wasn't locked out of having a "stronger" starter throughout the early game, Espurr I wasn't really vibing with and well.. Sandile.. Moxie. As of EP5, these were replaced with Doduo, Skiddo, Litleo, Venipede and Rockruff. The inspiration behind these choices were they evolved "early enough" that they could be pretty strong for the early game, and can still hold their own later on! Surprisely enough Skiddo does a hefty amount of work considering its a Grass Type, I also wanted to add a Gen 7 starter in the mix and Rockruff suited the role quite well, though I had to balance the game a bit to make it so Lycanroc doesn't just sweep (this will again be adjusted in EP6). These Pokemon in general aren't amazingly strong however do well at holding their own and that is why I chose them! (they may change for later EPs, but we'll see). 3 hours ago, Kool Aid said: Also, not a question but I just finished this game the other day and holy hell, y'all knocked it out of the park with this.

I didn't really base Shiv off anyone - which is pretty obvious from his earlier models oops. His re-design later on did yoink that jacket thoooo While Connor's original design from an art perspective was essentially budget Fern, his actual character isn't based off Fern. The character, being one of the first I made, is based off what I wanted the mainstream Pokemon games to have as a rival - someone who comes off as rude, competitive, and oftentimes downright mean, but also actually has a heart. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ravi Kabir Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 So, I'm pretty sure that at some point of the story, we'll get a perfection pokemon. My question is, which pokemon can reach perfection? Is it going to be starter exclusive , or any pokemon that we have max friendship with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
