PokéStory

Hello everyone. I hope that you have been enjoying everything that PokéStory has to offer!

I want to take some time to update you all on development progress and to share some TODO list items left to cross off before the next version, v0.1.7, can be released.

First off, I want to say that the Marketplace feature has been complete! After testing it over the last few days, I have been able to iron out some preliminary bugs and ensure that the system works. I am really excited to get this feature out the door and to see how the economy will take shape! In case you missed it, I have posted pictures of the new windows on the Discord server, so join up to get a peek at those!

I have a few items I want to get done before releasing this next version. These items are as follows.

• I need to work out the Marketplace interior to give a place for Josette, the Marketplace Matron, to manage the Marketplace.
• Adding a small battle window for users who desire it.
• A while back I began making changes to the Pokémon summary window. I will be finishing those changes off.
• I want to render NPC Titles above their names to make it easier to distinguish which NPCs do what.
• I want to add an indicator to NPCs to show which ones want to battle, including a separate indicator to show rematches.
• Allow users to use Nurse Joy's services over the counter. (Yay, no more walking around!)
• Improve the World Map, allowing users to zoom out even further than before.
• Make the chat window resizable and repositionable.
• Making a user's chat appear over their head has been a long time request from a loyal user, so I intend to work that in to this update.
• Finally, I'd like to add that "random item on the ground" system I've been talking about for months now.

And so, I have just a few more things left to wrap up before I can get this new version out the door. The list seems like a lot, but really after implementing the small battle window, the rest of it should be relatively simple. There is no ETA as of yet, but I do hope to get things out soon. I'd really like to start working on the rest of the action items to get us even closer to v0.2.0. If you're not on the Discord, you should join us! I keep people there involved in more minute-to-minute updates as I work them out.

As always, thank you for your patience and I appreciate anyone who keeps up with the project!

Have a good one!
