New Horizon


~Introduction~

Pokemon New Horizon is a fan made game. The game is based on 3D structure. It is a single player game based on a third person camera.

Pokemon New Horizon is being on the game " Pokemon Gold and Silver ". Although the game is based on the older generation of pokemon games. The story will go in different sections. Most of it is not even based on older pokemon games. Infact 80% of the game is completely never before seen.

Pokemon New Horizon will include all general gym leaders , team rocket , ash , misty , rock , and professor oak. The towns will be named differently , as well as the routes.

~Custom Features~

Brand new costum features will be added into the game. Some old features will be custom altered.

- Fishing = You can now fish any where there is water. What you catch may depend on whats lurking in the water. The pokemon caught could be a strong one, he/she might pull you into the water. You better hope you have a water pokemon to swim on. Otherwise your waisting your time.

-Wild pokemon battles = Oh wow , you think your good enough to battle wild pokemons ? Wild pokemons mood changes during the day. They could be having a good day or having a bad day or in between. Regarding what mood their in , they can be a lot of trouble for you. Or they can be easy. Good luck.

- Pokemon Leveling = Pokemon leveling will no longer be like the old days. Pokemon dont level. Not one bit what so ever. Your pokemon becomes stronger by doing battles or training. Pokemon will have a mind on their own. Their actually smart. They can actually learn to become stronger if the trainer really pushes them. Or become weaker if "possible" if the trainer rarely trains them or battle with them.

- Your own pokemon mood = Like every pokemon in the game , your own pokemon will have mood as well. You better feed them , love them , traing them right. Matter of fact even respect them right. Otherwise they could just ignore you and make you loose important pokemon battles.

~The world it self~

The world of Pokemon New Horizon is huge. So huge you might not even explore it all. Swimming with your pokemon from one side to the other side of the ocean could pratically take you actually 4- 6 real life hours. I hope you know what your getting your self into


~Battle System~


Wow this is a bit difficult to say. I think it's more difficult to actually explain it then to code it o.O ... lol
Anyways , the battle system is actually the #1 system in the entire game that will take the most developing time. Infact its still yet in development. Probably around 30% finished.

- The Battle system will be a "FREE STYLE" system. Heres how it works.

*Upon entering in battle mode , you will be introduced to the "Transitions" system.

*Transistions system is where you can click a button and trigger a change in camera mode. You can between "character 3rd person mode" to "pokemon 3rd person mode"

*When your in the "Character 3rd person mode transition system , you have the option to heal your pokemon , change your pokemon , run , etc..

*When your in the "Pokemon 3rd person mode" your in control of your pokemon. This is how the battle will be. You have basically almost the entire area of where your standing to a certain point "not shown" to have a battle. Your in control of your pokemon. Move your pokemon like if you were moving your character while walking , running. Its just like a dragonball z game. You choose your character and use the whole map freely to battle your enemy. Same style applys here. Except this time its your pokemons.

*Skill system is the most interesting. The engine calls it skills , while your calling it "Attacks".Each skills will require a key press combo to be able to do it. Heck but its very difficult. Remember your enemy will act like you. They can move around freely as you. So you must master moving freely and doing the key combinations to trigger an attack at the right moment.

* Switching from pokemon mode to character mode transitions can leave your pokemon in harms way. Just because you switched from pokemon to character does not mean the battle is paused. Just means your decided to switch. But the battle is still on. Meaning your enemy can harm your pokemon.

Legend of the Light House = You think you can find this area and discover its secrets ? Well good luck with that :) even if you do. the secret could just blow your mind. Or maybe it was a waste of time for you ? Who knows :)





Legend of the Fountain = The secret fountain of a certain pokemon. Legend says that "certain pokemon" used to defend that fountain for personal reasons. But what personal reasons ? Can i catch that pokemon ? I dont k now , but I hope you find out :)



Under Water ruins = Guess what ? Not only can you swim with your pokemon to reach places. You can also swim under water with your pokemon and discover hidden underwater places , ruins , deserts , gosh even secret pokemons :)



Ocean and Sunset = Ever wonder how the ocean and sunset in the game would look like ? Well your in luck heres is a in game 12 second video of the ocean while theres a sunset going on.

This in game video is real time render while in game. The computer behind this video is running Core i7 , 32 Gb ram ddr3. With 1 gtx 600 series card. Running at a frame rate of 85 frames per second.

Sounds like pokemon mixed with soem of the catz/dogz stuff!
Could be good, but hopefully you don't have to spend so much time/money on each of them just to make them happy, maybe just a few mins and a few battles. otherwise it will just get to boring to have a full team that respect you enough to fight how you want.

[P0kemonMast]

First page updated. Also Sunset video being uploaded.

[LordUsagi]

You renamed this project from pokemon gold 3D? Should ask for your old thread to be deleted. But I'll say it again, this project seems interesting. You've done the graphics well but will you get the gameplay downpat? Those things go hand in hand and you need to execute both extremely well to bring out a polished end product. Either way, I look forward to following the progression of your project along.

[KidRambo]

Do pokemon still evolve? And will you be adding custom made pokemon? I might try this out tomorrow

[P0kemonMast]

@KidRamboDubstep : Yes pokemon do evolve. Every general aspect of the old game will be in here. Beta isnt released yet though.

@LordUsagi : Thanks for the graphics. Gameplay is worked on the most actually. I tend to spend less time on graphics. But since i know Zbrush , since i have been playing with it for 2 years already. Graphics tend to come out some what good. Dont worry gameplay will be good.


Updated first post with the sunset video.

[LordUsagi]

Sounds great. I just see a lot of projects kick off with such huge potential but then are destroyed by a bad community, or bad game play. It'd be nice to see this one succeed as it looks like you've put the effort into it.

[DeathLord17]

This game just seems like there is so much to it already, you surely can't be making all of this by yourself.

Sure am . And nahhh this is barely anything what your seeing. Just the beginning of more things to come. Im a 1 man team lol , i spent atleast 3-4 hours a day during my free time on this. 40% on graphics and the rest on game play. Most of this areas have been made while ago. I just never really shown them

[DeathLord17]

Well, grats on even getting this far, and gl on finishing the project! can't wait for any kind of gameplay release.

[P0kemonMast]

Yeah eventually i'll get bored of typing or showing pics of how the game will look or something and just release a beta lmao

I'm really curious to know how to the battling will be. Sort of hope it's sort of match's my imagination xD.

I hope it looks something like the newer 3D Pokemon games for the Wii like Pokemon: Battle Revolution's style. That would look nice :)

The announcer wouldn't really be necessary lol. I thought it was kind of overdoing it at that point XD

EDIT: I like how you're introducing different playstyles to the game, but I'm not so sure about the new leveling system. It seems a little... Tedious/Difficult. But it does seem interesting.

[P0kemonMast]

First post updated. Added information regarding battle system.


P.S : what you guys think of the video Sunset ? Its exactly how the water and sunset will be inside game. Heck its a inside game video recorded.

I love the sunset. It looks great.

The only thing that I don't love is the Battle System. I'm sorry if I seem like I'm just "shooting your ideas down" but, keep this in mind I'm not just any average RaGEZONE user, I'm also a very experienced Creative Producer, in other words, a guy who comes up with video game ideas.

With that being said, I'd like to say I am not a fan of your battle system. I don't think Pokemon should be a fighting game, neither do I think was it made to be a fighting game. It really takes away the RPG element it had if you add that in. The battle system it had is what made it what it is today. Don't get me wrong, I love and played almost all of the Dragon Ball Z Budokai and Tenkaichi game series, I loved Budokai, and still do. But I do not think it was meant for Pokemon, whatsoever.

I'd like to say that it won't be you playing the game in the end, it will be the players, and I'm not sure what the others are thinking about your new battle system idea, but I am not really so sure that they are a fan either. I could be wrong, but we'll have it wait and see for their replies.

Now, before I leave this post for you to read, as it is indeed long, I'd like to say that if you do use this new battle system of yours for this game that you are developing, I do not think I will be playing it. It's not my kind of style for Pokemon, and I don't think it ever will be. I hate to break it to you. No offense to you at all or anything, I don't intend on offending you in any way. I just would like to state my opinion on the matter. I personally think you should just keep the good old system that Pokemon had for battling, and now that I'm breaking this news to you, I think I should say that I'm not really a fan of your leveling system or "taking care of your pokemon or they hate you and grow weaker and will not listen to you". It's too "Sims" like, it's too real. I don't want to be taking care of something like a grown up to a baby when I'm playing Pokemon, I want to be playing Pokemon for what it is, for what I love. If I wanted to take care of something special and difficult, I'd go have sex with a girl and have a baby for crying out loud. The reason why people play games is to escape reality, and have fun, we don't play games to re-enter reality and play reality. If I wanted to do that, I'd pick up a Sims game. I'm not hating on the Sims either here, but my main message in this post is that Pokemon is not meant to be what you're thinking about changing it to be.

But it really is your choice, you're the developer. It's up to you whether or not you choose to listen to my opinion, or any further posts from anybody else who thinks whatever they think on this idea.

I strongly think you should consider changing it back, or re-thinking on that idea and making it more Pokemon-like, and not Dragon Ball Z Budokai-like.

My two cents.
