State of the Game (June 25, 2024)

Hello!
It's been a while! I'd like to give an update about the project.
First of all I'd like to apologize for the long wait, I know a few of you want this project to be ready to go and I haven't delivered yet.
I'd like to thank you for sticking along even though progress has been slow.

Status of the game:
I have loaded the project and taken a status of where it's at, the project was made in GameMaker 2.3, and Gamemaker has seen a lot of updates since then, to give perspective, the preview you can view on the page was made before sequences where added to GM.

What needs done:
The start movie needs to be redone or remade completely, I really don't like it and its also not a sequence so its all hacky code.
from there I want to recreate the intro from the GB games and then transition to the core of the Lavender town theme.
I still want the game to feel like an authentic game but I also don't want to get too detailed and accidently recreate the entirety of Pokemon.

So what now:
So I am going to be working on this game again, it's just going to take time. I want this short little thing to be good and memorable rather then a short crappy fan game on the internet. I also have other priorities in my life that require more focus so this will be a background project, making dev time even slower.

TL;DR
I want to continue with this project, Im sorry for the wait, I want it to be good, I cant focus on it 100% but I am working on it, It's just going to be a while.

Thank you!
