Pokémon Investiture - NOW RECRUITING

Pokémon Investiture is looking for help!
 
Pokémon Investiture is a fangame made in RPG Maker XP using Pokémon Essentials V21.1 and MKXP.  It features the brand-new region of Nalsia, a region inspired by the works of Brandon Sanderson's Cosmere! Nalsia takes influences from the worlds of Roshar from the Stormlight Archive and Scadrial from Mistborn.
 
No knowledge of the books is necessary to enjoy or work on this game. This is a region inspired by the worlds and concepts, rather than a retelling of their stories.
This is not your first journey.
You've already achieved the status of champion back in your home region. After being out of the limelight, Pokémon League Headquarters has requested you to help assess a brand new region's Pokemon League. Posing as a brand-new trainer, you'll travel to the Nalsia region to take on its gym challenge and mold it into your ideal Pokémon League.

The Nalsia Region

Until recently, the Nalsia region was divided in two halves until the establishment of the Pokémon League unified the region. The Rosh people of the west strongly believe in traditional bonds with Pokémon and living in harmony with them. This stands in contrast with the Scadan people of the east who see advanced technology as the way to unlock a Pokémon's true potential. Nalsia exists as a tenuous region, newly united under a fragile League.  There are some who seek to split the region apart to what it once was. Team Rift lurks in the shadows, disguising themselves as civilians to better spread mistrust and fear.

 

Features:

Development details

Hello all, I'm Hadron and this is my first fangame project, evolving out of an original PTU campaign I planned and my love for both Pokémon and the Cosmere! I'm hoping to eventually deliver a game that honors both inspirations and provides a fun experience for fans of both. 
 
This has mostly been a solo development effort with some commissioned artwork and sprites. Now that the demo is out I'm looking to recruit a team to help bring this from a demo all the way into a full release.
The current intent is to release the rest of the game across 5 primary patches.
Patch 1.0.X - Current released Demo
Patch 2.0.X - Story from Gyms 3 to 5
Patch 3.0.X - Story from Gyms 6 to 9
Patch 4.0.X - Story through to credits
Patch 5.0.X - Postgame
 
Available Roles
 
  • Scripter - We have a regional gimmick that is the main priority to include in next patch
  • Mapper - Need help on developing complex maps and landscapes.
  • Tileset Artist - We are using Gen 5 tiles but want to help bridge the visual gap that currently exists
  • Composer - We would love some original tracks to coincide with the remixes currently used.
  • Balancer - For both Fakemon and trainer battles!
  • UI Artist - We would like to move past the base UI to something we can truly call our own!
  • Sprite Artist - Whether it's for the Fakemon, trainers, or something else, we could use help.
  • Playtesters - With all the new features and custom choices, we need strong quality assurance.
 
Current Team
Hadron - Eventer, Mapper, Overworld Trainer Spriter, Writer
Lynian - Editor and Pokédex entry author.
