Released Pokémon Libertas (v 1.9.0)

Welcome to Kimo!

Pokémon Libertas is a semi-open world Pokémon Fangame aimed to let the player explore an entire region in many different orders, while still having a lot to see and do.

You are an aspiring trainer who've been in contact with Professor Fumu, who agreed to help you move into Kimo to start your new journey. Today is the day you settle in. Who you were and what you want to do from here is up to you.

Author's Note
​

Hello there! This is my first Pokémon fangame (and also finished game), and it's been in private development since October of 2020 with some of my friends volunteering to playtest the game and help hunt for bugs.

While all the gyms are finished, I'm currently starting work on the league and post-game, so it's not quite done yet, but at this point I'm willing to show what I have.
Apart from the plugins and resources used, this project is entirely solo, so a relatively long development time should be expected before I release another update, as this project has been in development since October of 2020 and is only now arriving here in terms of progress.

Feedback is very much appreciated both here and in Discord (though I check Discord much more often), and I'm looking to soon overhaul many parts of this game, primarily some of the old maps. maybe some sprites, and later remake most of the UI, so don't be afraid to shoot some suggestions and ideas for those, and I'll see if:
1. I can do them, and if,
2. I like them enough to put them in.

Anyways, that's all. Enjoy!

Q should be the default key for changing game speed, as for menus it might(?) be an issue with your device
I'm pretty sure berries and retry-able event encounters can start to lag your game during the overworld if you have too many active, so make sure to pick any berry trees ASAP and to complete event encounters that you can
