What the heck is 3dPE?
3dPE is a 3D game engine I've been developing for a few years in my spare time. It's not only meant for Pokémon fangames, but it'll be super easy to create them with it in the future, especially for Gens 4 and 5. For more information, you can visit our website, or the tumblr devblog.
It has cloud project storage so you can collaborate easily, and it'll have a whole suite of building tools. The Map Editor is nearly done, and that's what this demo was made with!
If you want to try making a Gen 5 fangame like this yourself, come join our Discord! We're just starting to get things properly rolling, so there'll be lots of development in the near future, and you can tell me what features you want. And test the software for me lol
So what's this Halloween Demo thing?
It's an example of the kind of games you can make with 3dPE. Because the whole thing is 3D, you can do tons of stuff that RPGMaker can't, like cinematic camera moves, atmospheric fog, reflections, walking on crazy geometry, falling through the floor, etc. All of those are in this game!
The demo was partly designed to show off the engine’s current capabilities, so there are beautiful 3D maps, atmospheric lighting, swooshy cameras, and more. There are no Pokémon battles, but there are puzzles and traps to work your way through as you discover the story. You're piloting out mascot robot, 3bot!
Please let me know what you think of it!
Enjoy the game, and happy Halloween!
