Pokémon fan game: anime-style character, pixelated battle

Author: kumakuma1.

PROGRESS: The Demo is playable until Bugsy.

I'm excited to share a project I've been working on: Hardlove Gold, a difficulty hack for Pokémon HeartGold. Built using the hg-engine, this game is heavily inspired by other popular challenges like Run&Bun and RadicalRed. This hack also features a custom AI that will keep you on your toes. Although hg-engine is far from complete, we got some nice NDS graphics that bring a fresh look to the ever-same Gen 3 hacks ;-)

🛑Features:

➡️Custom AI

➡️Carefully selected Pokémon and Movesets

➡️Setup is not available for the Player

➡️Terrain, Weather are permanent and cannot be removed

➡️Starter choice will enable different tools for progression

➡️Leaders use off-type Mons to have diverse teams

➡️Apricorn trees give berries

➡️Story is slightly altered and progress streamlined

➡️Hard Level Caps. Placed candies allow overleveling

➡️Toggleable Repel

➡️Relearner, IV/Nature Setter in every PokéCenter (against Heart Scales)
