http://tohjo.totalh.com/index.php?cmd=page/lostsilverIf you guys want to find out more about where it comes from and what it's trying to do.It's basically a story that originated from 4chan (hurr, yeah, I know), a "creepypasta" from the /x/ boards, and it became popular recently with the addition of the /vp/ boards. Many people wanted this hack to be real (which it's not, if you read the story) so I'm making a game out of it as I made a game engine for Gold/Silver/Crystal years ago. It's coming out pretty well.In other news, I just recently jailbroke my new iPod, 32GB. Awesome.
If anyone knows where this is, wow. Anyways, this is my latest project I've been working on, and it's gotten more attention than I though (started out with me doing it as a joke for like, 5 people, now like 100 are wanting me to finish, spreading by word of mouth only), so I thought I would post it here. You know, as it's still technically a Game Maker community.
Juju: GBC games like this usually had 2 tiles for everything as opposed to 3 because of technical limitations, so that's why I made it like that.
Everyone else, thanks!Wouldn't it make it creepier if you broke the limitation?
No, for people who have played the game before it will make the maps seem off. I'm keeping the limitation because, while the story states that it's a bad ROM hack, I don't want to make it seem like it is, I want to make it seem like the whole thing was built into the game, so that it blends in perfectly (or, "as close as you get") to the original game without modifying it to make the hack more realistic. You'd be surprised how many people would spot that 2 tile limitation and ask why it's not there anymore. Just don't want to see those comments come up when I myself do not want to break the limitations.
I understand what you're saying though, and thanks! :DI'm a fan of alternative narratives.
@squeakyreaper: Yeah, especially that one about the dead skulll. =O
Pokemon Black was cooler, but this was pretty interesting to read.
Okay, where's the keyboard instructions for this thing? I can't figure out what keys are the A-button and the B-button.
NEVER MIND, I figured it out by looking at the default settings on the emulator for Ruby Version.
THAT. WAS. AWESOMENESS!!!!!!!! Unlike your Cursed Black, it matches the story TO THE LETTER. And the loop that happens when you hit no on the 'TURN BACK NOW' sign that wasn't in the story added to the creep factor. 1000000000000000000000/10.
LMAO oh wow. glad you liked it man. it's awesome to see this, especially today
