Dear /prog/,
Sorry to be of a bother but we /tr/ainers in /vp/ are in quite a struggle.
Currently a bunch of us are working on creating Pokémon games based on the North American continent, called the North American Pokemon League Project. However, we realized that creating a romhack was not the best solution to this due to inherent limitations on what we can do, and that RPG Maker XP doesn't provide what we absolutely need.
I'm not a programmer, so please bear with me as I explain.
One of the /prog/rammers in our ranks suggested that perhaps we can create an original engine scripted for the purpose of mimicking a Pokémon game (with added modifications such as seasons, real time weather, etc). It would be an open source project and would run under OpenGL.
Furthermore, it would ideally also have a Wysiwyg editor so that a non-programmer willing to learn the basics and who doesn't want to make any dire changes in the engine (because they don't know how) can make a simple Pokemon game. /vp/ would love it. I'm sure everyone on 4chan and beyond would love it.
Anywho, we're serious about this project. We have creative heads, but simply lack programmers. It would be a blessing if anyone here would help us out or take part in the inner workings of the project in general.
