Pokémon Emerald Seaglass is RELEASED!
That’s right! Pokémon Emerald Seaglass, my Rom Hack of Pokémon Emerald, is officially released!
The patch can be downloaded for free on my Ko-Fi website here: https://ko-fi.com/nemo622
Alongside the IPS patch file, a PDF with lots of important documentation is included! This contains information about how to patch the file to play the game, a Feature list, a Credits list, and a giant list of Pokémon locations! If you have a question about the game, odds are it’s in that PDF!
For those who missed my previous Reddit posts, here’s a quick rundown of the top features:
Complete visual overhaul of all game graphics to fit a cozy, GBC-like aesthetic
All Pokémon from Generations 1-3 are obtainable, along with cross-generation evolutions (ex: Roserade, Mamoswine, Farigiraf)
Tweaks to many traditionally “bad” Pokémon to make them more interesting and usable (ex: Ghost/Flying Noctowl, Grass/Dragon Sceptile, Water/Fire Octillery)
Updated battle engine to most recent games (Physical/Special split, Fairy type, etc.)
New minigames and events to bring life to Hoenn, such as a Scuba Diving competition in Pacifidlog Town and Pinball games used to unlock rare items and Alolan Eggs!
Following Pokémon!!
The Rustboro City Wishing Well, using Wishing Star items as a currency in a gacha-like system to get random Pokémon! Great for shaking up repeat playthroughs
Cheat codes accessible in-game via the Player’s GameCube
Hard Mode (disabled by default), Soft Level Cap toggle (enabled by default), and more settings accessible by interacting with book on Player’s desk
Many, many more small features, tweaks, and QOL additions! Be sure to check the Documentation PDF for more information :)
