So basically, I've been working on a fan game called "pokemon water blue", it's basically just fire red and leaf green fused into one and ported over to essentials. I've nearly finished it but just came to the realization, that since it's basically a fully playable version of fr/lg with minor changes, would that be basically equal to sharing a rom of the games?
Basically, my question is: "can I share my pokemon essentials fan game that's a port if fire red and leaf green into essentials, or would that be illegal?"
Furthermore, I originally made this because I wanted to make what was essentially (heh) ROM hacks of fire red without learning how to rom hack (thought it was too complicated) so I'm worried all my work will go to waste because I won't even be able to release the games made from pokemon water blue.
I know most ROM hacks distribute patches and such beacuse that's less likely to get you into trouble, but you can't do that with essentials (obviously).
This was originally made so people who know how to work essentials but not ROM hacking software can make mods of fire red/ leaf green but it would suck if after all this I could share this with other people or maybe even use myself.
