Pokemon Games?

[Lighting Half Dozen]

On www.gamingw.net there is a game called rm2kmon its basicly pokemon. but it looks amature, a CBS would do better.

so im promabaly going to make a game similar to pokemon, except more like dragon warrior monsters, if anyone ever played that.

I never played that game, but I like the idea of you doing something original better than a pokemon spinoff

But just to keep your options open, I'll talk about the cbs and cms you'd need for a pokemon game.

First off, the CBS would be easy to make (compared to normal battle system), the reason being is that you only have to worry about one monster and one enemy at a time, you don't have to worry about a time meter, and theres a limited amount of moves you can do. If you've never made a CBS before, this would be a great battle system for you to learn with.

As for the CMS... It would be a pain for you to remake the whole thing to add another two characters. A simple thing you can do would be to just allow 4 pokemon in your party at a time. Another option would be to make a swich that changed the pokemon that are desplayed in your party. For example, you could carry 8 around with you at a time, 4 would be desplayed in the menu system, then if you pushed '1' on the map or something, it switches it so that the other 4 are desplayed.

Like I said before, I always like to see something original made before a spinoff, but if you have your heart set on making a pokemon game, then you should do that. Its best to work on something because you want to, not because other people want you to. So, if you do wish to make a pokemon game and need help with the cbs, just talk to me and I can give you some advice/help and such

They also have alot of pokemon stuff in resources...ALOT @_@

[kadeity]

ive seen all the stuff in resources.

i dunno...not sure what to do about this idea.

[Shadowninja]

I've played Dragon Warrior monsters!
That's a cool game.

It would also be a good simple idea to base an RM2K3 monster game on, especially since you can create random dungeons!

I started work on a nameless monster game not too long ago, and it started like a sort of tamagotchi style pet game when your monster was a baby, and became like Dragon Warrior Monsters when it grew up.

It was also a little like the game Animal Crossing, since most of the game was set in the one town (except for the dungeons) and you could create your own player character to raise the monster... wow, it's actually sounding pretty good again!
Perhaps I'll resume work on it again!

I can say one thing, if somone comes up with some good scripts for catching monsters, it could go to better use on an original "Monster Cetch'em" game.

i also saw this game made in some other lang. Its a different style pokemon game. You just got Ash and Pikachu.

I love Dragon warrior monsters! I still play it today. So if you need any monsters for your game, just PM me. I can help

From what I've read, it looks like almost everyone at some point has tried to make a monster-catching game, whether it's a pokemon spinoff, or an original version with monsters and a plot. Here's my idea: why don't we work together and make an awesome game for all of the rpgmakers sitting at home trying to code a CBS to catch one darn little bird!
If anyone is interested, post your skills and things you can contribute to the project.
My name is Mick, and I am a writer(/poet) and I am willing to try and write a storyline for the game.
Come on everyone, let's try and make this project work!!

[kadeity]

that would be cool.
honestly i like the idea.

Um...well... the game im leaning toward making is like this.

you can have 3 monsters in your party at a time.
you are also there, and participate strictly as support.
if its possible id like to make it so that you and the enemy trainer guy are untargetable, and can only provide support, via items.

Um...i think a small number for monsters would be good, say 50...
um and maybe only 4 or 5 elements. like earth fire wind water and robotic.

Or we could do it like Magic and have white,blue,red,black,and green.

Anyway, the point is that i think this would be FANTASTIC.

the two people really needed are someone who knows code well, and someone who can write the plotline.

i would gladly be in charge of grafics... i can sprite like nobodys business i just dont do it alot.

ALL ORIGIONAL MONSTERS is important.

anyway...any other ideas?

[Lighting Half Dozen]

I'd help, just not with pokemon, but an original monster game is okay with me, i can do story plot, scince pokemon didn't have one.

[Neith05]

Well i have made a more of a digi-mon game before, having to put loads of characters into the game (e.g charmander, squirtle, bulbasaur ^^) would take ages and also you would find errors in doing this, so instead when your at the begging of the game make it so you can only choose one monster/character in the game

When i made my game i made it so the trainer was in the battle aswell, and the trainer could use moves like 'cheer' which would make your creature's attack power go up!

anyway, i got loads more idea's but i don't wanna bore ya!

[Lighting Half Dozen]

It seems to me, that a group of people with these programing ideas should get together online to work something out. if this many people have ideas, it might work.

I'd probably cry wondering who in the world created such an atrocity. But hey... I've never been a big fan game fan. Got to have at least a little creativity or your going to fail like all of the millions of others with their KH fan games... Why would you want to be like everyone else.

[SensitiveGuy182]

this project sounds more and more promising with every post. I would be glad to be a part of it. I would like to contribute greatly to the writing/storyline/plot.  I will PM those who have agreed to lend their skills to the project and give them my aim screen name, in hopes that they send me theirs as well. I would like to chat with my new team about the goals and mechanics of the project. Who knows, we could even schedule a group chat session. Ok so whoever will join please post something along the line's of "COUNT ME IN!!".
Thanks,
