No losing penalty for Exclusive sounds fair, I'm gonna add it ! Thanks for the idea ! Drastic seems to be 100% compatible in the next version so there's that. Max Elixirs are Beach Cave floor 3 and have a 45% chance to spawn out of 3 to 6 items, which is enough I feel like. The resource is fairly accessible. The Porygon bug is fixed in my version. Waterfall Cave's even floors have a high density of orbs and you can use them floor 9. The Apple Woods floor however wasn't perfectly designed in the public version so I came up with a new design emphasing what I wanted people to do in the room along with a Pitfall Trap allowing to do to the previous floor in order to scout for the resource needed. The full version has additions but most likely this won't affect your immediate experience pre-Aegis Cave. That's a fairly odd bug that was fixed in my version, however it's not addressed in the public one... Sorry about that... Level Scaling directly manipulates the entity level in the spawn list. That means the movesets are altered as a result. Some entities however have hardcoded movesets, for that it's case by case. As someone mentioned there's a public version that adresses the Job Bulletin Board issue. Thanks for the kind words, however it's not just me haha! Without my testers and all the help I got from other modders, this project wouldn't exist! Teamwork makes the dream work! Finally, I'll have you know that 2.0 is proceeding nicely. I tackled one of the biggest issues of Alpha and now that I'm done with it I'm clearing some stuff in my todolist yet again, though life prevents me from working faster, development is going well so far! -
I'll answer 1 by 1: - ReA: there's the Exploration log that tells you the number of unique species you recruited - Level scaling: level resets are unaffected by this feature - Solorun random: no, however there's something cool with using Ditto in Alpha because it has Imposter. It is some sort of replayability and considering floor randomizer I could add something that generates a random species for Imposter if randomizer is active, why not ! - ultimate balanced dungeon: 5 levels of that. Zero Isle North is a random bag dungeon. It helps preparing with whatever you get. Zero Isle East is a Natural Mode dungeon where stats are recalculated based on main series. Zero Isle South is the ultimate level reset, find keys to progress, otherwise you'll lose long term. Destiny Tower is the current ultimate challenge. No bag no IQ, 1 mon, no Exp, recruiting on, 99 floors + Arceus custom boss: good luck. Tower of Perfection: you have access to everything, however enemies all have handpicked movesets with linked and powered up moves, here to deal with everything you prepared to beat the dungeon. It will be the final dungeon next version. - Left on the to-do list are story rewrites to fit the final goal of the game, puzzle reworks, some boss field effects, Chatot quest, ultimate items, Tower of Perfection and that's all. A lot still and that's why there's no ETA, as I said I have a life.

Unfortunately no. The Body Size restriction is a measure put in place by the game so it avoids breaking all the dungeon stuff while loading sprites. This is something I cannot remove. I have a life, development is still ongoing and I have a Twitter if you want to follow the news @EoAlpha_off

Discord DMs for now 'til the post is officially updated. I have an internal randomizer for the exact reason that anyone can play the starter they want. No need of preventative measures. I plan to have a Discord at some point, but it's more for feedback and community interactions, it's something planned for 2.0
-
Tower of Demise is changed in 2.0, maybe you will feel more confident in trying it haha Not that irrelevant to me, unfortunately I only have a development server for now and not more than that, I have had bad experiences with Rom Hack servers in the past. Maybe I'll change my mind in the upcoming weeks, however I have more pressing matters related to the game for now
-
Hey! Alpha 2.0 already has a Dynamic Randomizer within the game, it only needs one game option to be turned on to work!
-
It's not an AI issue, it's something I cannot control at all. The AI isn't here to move linearily and can move all over the place, there's no easy fix to that.

Clear Tomb of Nightmares and you are asked if you want to enter The Nightmare Thanks for the support !
-
Thanks for the kind words! All credits dued for SMD move shortcuts go to End and Irdkwia, not me, just so you know. 2.0 adds a ton of stuff to make the game more enjoyable for everyone, I'm glad you look forward to it! Unfortunately the development is on hold as I have had a big drop of motivation lately, but I will get back to it eventually The remainder of the to-do list adds side-quests for both endgame QoL and more gameplay designs for main story and endgame alike It will take the time it needs to be released as I am not looking for clout with a fast release nor for a burnout if I overwork myself

The issue with how you phrase things is that you don't explain the "why" behind your thoughts. The gameplay is tedious with 1.2 settings and I agree, you can talk about spawn rate, enemy HPs, and a lot of stuff but... Dojo ????? You don't need maxed stats to play the game and it was designed this way, if you aren't good enough I advice you to play the 2.0 once it's out, there's lower difficulties in it. Saying not repeatable dojos make the game tedious is absolutely ridiculous. I won't talk about the fraudish game you mentionned, stolen stuff and next to no changes go to show how insulting it is for me to see my game compared with it. And if I work on a 2.0 Alpha for so long, that's for a reason, this one being having a more inclusive hack in the end. You play a difficulty hack considering 1.2 and complain about the difficulty and the fact you need to think as a statement (overthinking is an overstatement). Your comments are only showing that you don't want to play the game the way it was designed and I don't give a damn since I already corrected these issues in 2.0 (that's why I insist every single time with "waiting for 2.0") but I should've told it right off the bat. Playing any way you want is fair, your complains with the game can be summed with "why I can't play with every pokemon in the game during story" and "why don't you allow everyone to abuse your game", which is ridiculous, really. 1.2 is the worse version of Alpha though and I completely understand that you may have not enjoyed it, 2.0 feels like a whole new game and if you feel like it I hope you change your mind about the game.

If you consider balancing is punishing, then I think you don't understand what is a game, but that I can understand You stand by your point ignoring the evidence I pointed you: I have tested everything so every starter combination can clear the game with max 2 tries in each story dungeon without Dojo abuse. Items and gameplay knowledge are key, yet you choose to ignore it and stick with "bruteforce". Your option isn't right and your gameplay isn't as well thought as it could be. Maybe the hack isn't for you in 1.2 but if you want I have an easy mode in 2.0 The other ways to indefinitely increase stats exists, true, but not in one go in main game. The restrictions are lifted post-game for a reason as I mentionned. Mentionning cheating devices is irrelevant and I never take filthy cheaters in account for my game except for the anti-cheat in 2.0 My level design choices are... well mine, work on your own hack if it doesn't please you, but don't throw trash on it, especially when you complain about stuff you're definitely not willing to understand I understand yours however and every """""issue""""" you mention has been taken care in 2.0 of one way or another, FYI

Daily Marowak Dojois here to prevent Infinite Stat abuse, and is lifted post-Graduation, this won't go for obvious reasons in Difficult and higher difficulties in 2.0 Timer is removed for most battles in 2.0, and no you aren't forced to bruteforce bosses in Alpha. Every combination in the game beats every boss in the game with at most 2 tries if you choose the right options, it has been designed this way and tested so the difficulty gameplay works smoothly. Mistakes were made, but 1.2 Alpha is close to 2.0 Hardcore so that's why it works this way Recruitment rates are made so you have 1/4000 chance to effectively get a Shiny under normal circumstances (no item or IQ skill), it isn't gonna be edited in 2.0 The Arceus face top screen isn't leaving top screen either, never heard of the Bed Save Glitch a single time in 1 year so it's weird, prolly an emulator issue I won't remove the pairing in story dungeons by the way, you play the story with your team and that's all. The problem you mention is non-existent and a level design choice for 1.2, deal with it.

Thank you so much for the kind words ! The whole purpose of 2.0 is to step up the game to a point where everyone can play it without worrying about the game being too hard or lacking features I hope it will fit your tastes too !

You can make a wish after you unlock Starglow Cavern, the wish is indefinitely repeatable afterwards When you are able to code new layouts by hand, you can add new layouts to the game since 4 layouts are duplicates of another one. I already tried my hand at adding one and it worked

I highly recommand you to download SkyTemple and change the spawnrate from 5 to 12 if the spawning is too much for you I'm aware of that issue and that's the main reason why I'm inves so much time in 2.0: I want the game to be for everyone As for the sprites I removed the small gender differences to gain the possibility to add new sprites to the game. Since adding new entries easily wasn't possible at the time, I had to replace "useless" sprites
