Pokemon could be made in RPG maker in like 5 minutes.

[–] AlexanderTheDead 30 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Pokemon Infinite Fusion is in fact made in RPG maker and is imo the best Pokemon game out there.

If only I can figure out how to get it running on my Steam Deck.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

You can just follow the guide they made for it.

*edit- who the hell would be downvoting me for this? It's literally the guide to run it on steam deck. I think it's even one of the games co developers that made the guide.

Does it need an emulator or run as it's own app?

Wonder if I can play it on phone

[–] AlexanderTheDead 3 points 2 months ago

iPhone users are out of luck afaik but you can try your mileage with android if you have it.

It'd be a no brainer for me if it was just a romhack.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Gonna have to take a look at it

[–] AlexanderTheDead 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It's made in RPG maker so it runs its own instance of RPG maker. Someone else posted a guide above.

It's only intended to be played on PC but the guides are from other users who have done their best to come up with workarounds for various platforms.

I thought RPG Maker could do Android versions?

[–] AlexanderTheDead 1 points 2 months ago

You're posing that hypothetical to the wrong person. All I know is that the dev does not officially support android but does provide a guide to try and get it functioning anyway.

That's probably something a person who has no clue about Pokemon could say. You underestimate how many mechanics older games contain, since like half of them are not obvious for casual players. Although I am not sure about gens newer than IV (Diamond and Pearl is the most recent I've played), since I haven't played them. But most people agree that the best games were around that period (Gen IV, or V), and they only become worse over the years.

You got me. It would probably take more than 5 minutes to do. You saw through my web of lies.

Get him! He's probably heading to the old mill!

It is a menu driven battler that ran on a game boy. It doesn’t take a programming savant to write this, no matter how many mechanics you bolt on top.

It's a standard RPG but replace the equipment with animals. Done.

[–] Quetzalcutlass 8 points 2 months ago

Now I kind of want a Flintstones RPG.
