Explorers of Alpha 3.0 is finally out!
We got nothing from the Pokémon Presents but at least you all will get a big release!

Second, I need your opinion on something. Expanded dex means save file cannot carry as many entries as there will be in the game, that means I have to work around that limit.
Which option sounds the most acceptable for you all?

[PMD Explorers of Alpha @EoAlpha_off]

Hello everyone
First an update, I am working on a 3.1 version that aims to provide a fix to most feedbacks received during 3.0. No ETA as always, it will serve as a transition to 4.0 aiming to expand the dex among other things

@SlashWebZ In the forum post:
"It is meant to be patched on a clean US Explorers of Sky ROM with xDelta UI"
In the profile bio:
"Hack based on Explorers of Sky"

I think some research would have cut the wait for you

Aaaaaand happy MD day !

I have mostly bug fixed the game in the past few weeks to allow for hardware compatibility, aside of that... see what I have in store for the last feature of Alpha's next big release 👀

Hey,
No post for a while. Life caught up and as such I was mostly bug fixing the last couple of weeks
Not all bugs are fixed obviously, 12 bugs missing before next testing session
I will start working on two features starting this evening, showcase when it's finished

Unusual post
I wanted to share a very good hack I've been involved into. This is Guardian of Hidden Land, made by happylappy, and trust me you should play it. It is a puzzle hack and it's probably the best design I've experienced in someone's hack. Ever.

@skopi_1083 Don't be selfish, I have a life and I'm not fulltime on the project. I am even more impatient than you to release the new version, however bugs won't fix themselves and features won't code themselves
I have 11 beta testers on it and it's going smoothly
Patience is a virtue.

[PMD Explorers of Alpha @EoAlpha_off]

Didn't want to post it as it was a simple proof of concept, then I thought "why not".
Megas were planned for a future release, however not all mega sprites are available so I was thinking about having a single Mega Stone given through a password.
M-Diancie is in next version!

[PMD Explorers of Alpha @EoAlpha_off]

Casually dropping this here, back from two months with barely any opportunity to work on the game...
Now that I do here's my modest contribution, with more to come!
Also you have to know my testers and I have ironed out a bunch of bugs! Next update is getting closer and closer!

[PMD Explorers of Alpha @EoAlpha_off]

Embark on a new journey... (a story in 4 parts... probably...)

[PMD Explorers of Alpha @EoAlpha_off]

It's about time there's another one!
Check it out, it'll definitely be worth your time.

@TOfthefuture Because reading is a good thing:

- new move animations for a few moves
- bug fixes, like Nidoran Female having twice the gender symbol

I'll be more busy IRL starting tomorrow, this will be the last update in a few weeks/months but I'll have you know development won't stop
(still no ETA)

[PMD Explorers of Alpha @EoAlpha_off]

- Mega Evolution/Primal Reversion added to the game! Limited to Rayquaza for Mega for now, however my template would work for any other species! I also added super weathers to the game to go with those additions, showcase here!

[PMD Explorers of Alpha @EoAlpha_off]

I'm looking for someone who could work on adding new tracks for me, it's better if you are familiar with the recent music breakthroughs in EoS hacking
The midis are already done, the goal would be adapting them to EoS soundfont
DM Mond on Discord/join SkyTemple's server to dm me

[PMD Explorers of Alpha @EoAlpha_off]

@TOfthefuture Anim isn't possible right now because the Sun is already up and we cannot add new animation particles in EoS with the current tools/knowledge
Message for super weather is under works, the "Weather didn't change" would be replaced with the super weather messages and is WIP

[PMD Explorers of Alpha @EoAlpha_off]

@ExplGuild What if it ends up in an EoS rom hack 👀

[PMD Explorers of Alpha @EoAlpha_off]

- new move animations for a few moves
- bug fixes, like Nidoran Female having twice the gender symbol

I'll be more busy IRL starting tomorrow, this will be the last update in a few weeks/months but I'll have you know development won't stop
(still no ETA)

[PMD Explorers of Alpha @EoAlpha_off]

- a new location added to the game to enter future dungeons, unlocked after you finish Final Episode 5: some stuff might be exclusive to that place...
- a new Zero Isle East restriction: you will play with your stats calculated like in main series. This dungeon has a banlist
