[Fridge_Slamer]

Is the main game complete?
Or will there be any post game updates
Other than that excited to try it out (once im done with school☠️ )

The effort and production that have gone into this is amazing, its genuinely one of the most ambitious and well executed full conversion mods I've seen.

...But as someone who has obsessed about this specific idea for longer than this game has been in the works, man is the actual dex kinda underwhelming. I understand it's specifically for Alpharad, but there is definitely a bias towards the games he likes (there are like 12 TTYD guys and two of them are recolors, and the Jabbi line is a completely baffling choice), some mainline Mario games are just fully ignored (Mario Kart World has more representation of Super Mario Land than this fan game that could have included anything from the series, and there's nothing from Super Paper Mario). There are also some that are just kind of baffling choices in general, like having Podoboo and Lava Drop. There are really good ideas for some of the evolution lines, and from what I've played so far it is very obvious that every single guy has had a lot of love put into them, but I think the main problem here was the decision to limit this to only 151.

The game is designed around having only 151 so I don't really know where you would include more guys without even more scope creep, but it just feels like a lot of effort was put into the concept but the most fun part of the concept just wasn't done as well as it really could have been?

My friend is a massive Mario RPG fan, and was excited for this hack, but lost basically all interest upon finding out there were basically no Mario RPG things in it outside of Exor, who is a legendary. She also brought up that Alpharad mentioned the dev team had trouble adding Special Attackers, and that Mario RPG has a bunch of wizard and mage enemies that could have helped. We also realized that Super Paper Mario could have helped with the very noticeable lack of Psychic types, since that game is full of weird psychedelic enemies (Cursya is maybe the most obvious thing from that game to include IMO). If your favorite Mario games aren't World, the first two Paper Marios, Mario 64, or Odyssey, you'll probably be at least partly disappointed in this.

We actually got frustrated enough at the dex we started coming up with our own additions, partly because its just fun to do. The team has done a lot of work on this game already so I suspect that anything besides bug patches won't be released, but man, it really doesn't feel like the full potential was met with it. I really don't like being negative about a game I've been excited about for 3 years, and maybe that's on me for setting expectations too high, but I wouldn't have expected any of the non-Pokemon additions. Even though those additions are probably the most impressive part, they also probably ended up overshadowing the part of the game most people are going to enjoy.

Main + Post game are complete.

Future updates for content are a maybe, but as of now it is fully feature complete.

 

[Platopics]

I must admit, I don't try ROM hacks/Fan games with fakemons.

But this is one hack I got to try, after hearing the in-game music, sprites and gameplay.

I know it's still a Pokemon ROM hack, but it reminds me of Superstar Saga for some reasons.

Thanks Kobazco!

Are the options when starting a new game that are not selectable going to be implemented in the future? If not can a future update remove them from the list?

 

[UltimateNintendoHero]

I've created some box arts for anyone interested! Great to see the full release and all the hard work the team put in.

 

[chamodman]

what do i do about the world 6 tower?

 

[Kobazco]

They are! Our first major update (which is likely a long ways off, we want a break LOL), will implement challenge mode + a randomizer, etc

 

[Kuronomi-chan]

Any plans to include King Bob-omb, Goomboss, and so on?

• - Several World 4 NPC freeze fixes
• - Fixed a bug where whiting out to a shiny Bullet Bill would make every future encounter shiny
• - You can no longer bring Bullet Bills to Cloud Cap
• - Fixed a bug where running/defeating #151 would then disable catching everywhere until you caught them normally
• - Fixed a bug where #151 would become unable to faint under specific circumstances (trainer battles)
• - #151 Catchrate: 1 -> 3
• - Various grammar/text fixes
• - Various collision fixes
• - Fixed a bug that resulted in Exploud appearing in the Pit
• - Run Away now let's you always run away in the Pit
• - Added a failsafe for Star Leader rematches
• - Fixed a bug that would not let you proceed to the Elite Four unless you reloaded the map
• - MINIONS! Quest can now be properly be completed
• - Fixed Fish Bone's Shiny
• - Fixed Nipper's Shiny
• - Fixed Freezie's Shiny
• - Experimental fix for Fuzzy dying in Nuzlocke, not sure on this one
• - POTENTIAL failsafe fix for multi battles never starting in World 5
• - Fixed a bug that would make the back half of your party be overwritten by Luigi's if you lost to or ran away from the Giga Bowser fight
• - Again, likely more I forgot

 

[Kuronomi-chan]

"

• "- Fixed a bug where whiting out to a shiny Bullet Bill would make every future encounter shiny"

I assume the flag that forces the Bullet Bills to be shiny doesn't reset if you wiped out until it was fixed in this patch

correct haha

 

[Kuronomi-chan]

While I'm at it, I'd like to point out that the roulette minigame still has the taillow and shroomish graphics alongside their cries.

 

[Inner Rhymes]

I'm currently 4 stars into this, and I just wanted to take a minute to appreciate this from the perspective of of someone who has played very little Mario, outside of Mario Kart, and only played RPGs for the most part. This hack strikes a perfect balance between retaining the essence of the game it's built on, while simultaneously embracing the fact that it's more than just "Mario with Pokémon gameplay". I feel like a lot of hacks do struggle with either being too similar to the core gameplay and design of Pokémon, or going out of its way to be its own thing which involves a lot of mechanical changes. This hits a perfect sweet spot in between. I absolutely love the sprite designs and music, especially! Thank you for gifting the community this!

 

[OmegaBlazerX]

The hack looks like a lot of fun i just hope in a possible future you can complete the Pokedex at some point or more exactly all 386 Mario theme monsters but that is just my opinion maybe a idea to wish for.

 

[Vegaku]

This looks so nice bro cant wait to try it out tonight

 

[Kuronomi-chan]

Random question, will we see a Pokémon Showdown version of this sometime? (like how Elite Redux and some Touhou Puppet Play hacks do for example)

 

[Scribblerjohnny]

I love the game but I'm stuck on Club Sugar. Is there any way around that to get the password?

If you're mirroring Jimmy T.'s movements, copy them instead. Seems we have a bit of a 50/50 on what players interpret what to do here lol. Goodluck!
