A fun side project I’ve been working on. More proof of concept than anything. Based on the idea of human units and Pokemon fighting together.
Human units can use Trainer Points (TP) to call on Pokemon to aid them in battle.
Pokemon can use attacks to fight enemies or to buff allies.
Enemies can call on Pokemon as well!
Human units can use standard physical weapons or use elemental magic (Fire, Water, Electric, etc.) or spirit magic (Grass, Bug, Ghost, etc.).
If you’re interested in trying it out, use the download link below! There’s not currently plans to make this into a full game, but the mechanics are there if that ever changes. I will likely still come back and update the demo as to polish things and as I learn more about LT.
Additional Gameplay notes
- Pokemon are summoned through the item menu. After summoning a Pokemon, a unit can still attack but no longer move.
- By design, Pokemon are tougher and have better stats (generally) than human units. Therefore it is recommend to have Pokemon fight Pokemon primarily. Stats were based on Pokemon’s base stats.
- Pokemon have their standard type weaknesses but do not currently resist types. Human units are considered to have no type.
- Pokemon are unable to trade at this time.
- Given this is a demo, there may be missing descriptions or sprites. I recommend having battle animations off in general.
