I just want to talk about the future of Blue Moon Falls a little bit (don’t worry, all good things!) so I’m going to use this thread to do that.
You’ve probably noticed that site updates have been nonexistent despite me officially coming out of hiatus. Well, there’s a few reasons for that:

I unironically would love to play a game like this, gimme more silly nerd programmer games

I’d love to see a longer video about the development of Where’s My Water! One of my first programming experiences was trying to remake it on Scratch since I loved the game so much, so it holds an extra special place in my heart

This was my immediate thought too- the meme came true I cannot believe it

I’m very excited to say that I’ll be adding my good friend Malamar to version 6.8.7 of PTGB! This has been a long time coming, and many many months of work have gone into making this possible.

Also Fennel has been replaced with Malamar and the program has been renamed to Malamar Transporter GB

No problem!! I hadn’t caught that these went up on Aliexpress, so I’m glad you sent them my way πŸ˜„

I am not the seller of that, unfortunately- I currently have no plans on selling cartridges for PokΓ© Transporter GB. I can’t stop people from selling the program online, but I have no involvement in it

Thank you, as always, for everyone who has been following this project and supporting me over the years. I am so proud of what this project has become- but I'm even more excited for what's coming next.

Here's to another year- and many more- of PokΓ© Transporter GB!

I had originally planned on v2.0.0 releasing around this time in celebration, but life has just gotten in the way too much for that to have happened. This year I started a full time job, and so I just haven't had as much time to work on PTGB- rest assured, development is still ongoing! (3/4)

Many things are coming soon as well- including fixing the pesky incorrect level bug and more language support. These rewrites are key to the next stages of development, but have taken a long time. There's a ton I'm excited for that's coming up, but it just isn't quite yet ready for launch. (2/4)

Today marks one year since PokΓ© Transporter GB had its v1.0.0 release! Although it may not seem like it, a ton has happened behind the scenes in preparation for v2.0.0. I've taken on a large sub-project with completely rewriting the conversion algorithm, as well as the text engine. (1/4)

The next major update is planned to include language support, yes! There might be a minor update or two in the meantime to fix a few pertinent bugs, but the language support will absolutely be a part of v2.0.0!

Along with the Emerald Seed Fix being, well, fixed! I added 5ish new features.

Music On/Off with button press(but keep SFX)
Infinite Repel On/Off with button press
EV Checker for Party with button press
IV Checker for Party with button press
Seed Fix On/Off with button press.

Persistent thru save

Lorenzooone’s tool does match PIDs and IVs, so you should be safe there! From what I understand, Bank’s servers are tied to the HOME servers, which means that they should stay up as long as HOME is around- and since the Switch 2 has compatibility, it should be around for a while πŸ™‚

A free (limited) WEB version of my "picross but even nerdier" game Replicube is now available! Give it a try and let me know what you think!

Try it here: replicube.xyz

Finally ended up buying this game after trying the demo and… yeah there goes my productivity for the next <indeterminant amount of time>

If this was on console, I genuinely would probably never end up playing anything else ever again πŸ™ƒ

I definitely recognize it too, even if it doesn’t end up being from Survivor- super curious to find out where it’s from!!

Is it the font they use in Survivor for the on screen info? Like the player’s name and what tribe they’re in
