Pokemon Run

This is an endless game with pokemons as characters

I started to create it just yesterday so it isn't very well now

I have some ideas, and I will add in the game

You can try this Demo here :

Controls:
- Arrow Up or left click (mouse) ---> JUMP
- R to restart when you die


Tell me if it can be a good game if enriched and improved

Thank you

LAST UPDATE:

- I added distance, highdistance and total stars (The script is not the official, it is just to try )

 

I dont know alot about endles runner games. But ofcourse this game could be alot better. It all depends on you and your fantasy and knowledge to bring it to life.

But what i would advice you is to not use anything that is copyrighted if you dont have a license for it. Nintendo is known for not alowing people use material that they own

 

Pretty much impossible to get further than a few platforms. The jump is too long/high, meaning you cannot get between platforms easy enough. You need to tweak the speed in my opinion, maybe dont spawn the "traps" until users have progressed a but further.

 

Yes i know i am working on it This is just a prototype, i have done it yesterday morning

 

Regarding copyright i Know... but in this sprite there is written "Give credit to Nightangel if used" so i don't know if i have also to give credit to Nintendo... I hope to be able to use without Nintendo permission.

How can i read the license of that sprite ?

Here is the link to the page where i found that sprite:

@mimminito I have just updated the link, now it is a bit better ?

 

Its better yes.

 

"I hope to be able to use without Nintendo permission."

There is no hope.

 

Yeah you can't use the pokemon name or sprites.

But you can easily use something similar and a different name.

 

Is there a way to get permission ?

 

Score text?

 

Write to Nintendo, ask them to license the name and assets to use within your game, and expect to pay A LOT of money for the license.

As others have done, I would advise you to change the name of the game and get some different assets.

 

Yes, i will add But i prefer to make the game better firstly and then i will add something like lifes, scores, shops and something else

 

Don't foget about ThunderShock, ThunderBolt, and Thunder. And what about Charizard, MewTwo, and Lugia?

 

If I use the nintendoìs sprite without permission, they remove my game from the net or i have to pay a fine ?

 

Could be either, or both.

 

not worth the risk.

Nintendo have a licencing arm for these things. Pokemon is a premium brand so I would expect millions to change hands.

even long forgotton games like commander keen can't be bought cheap

 

Where can i found good public domain sprites ?
Because i am not able to create new sprites...

 

Open Game Art is one resource for you to start with:
http://opengameart.org/

Just a quick google and you will open yourself up to a wealth of new free to use assets.

 

Yeah you'll definitely need to remove the pokemon assets like others have stated. You could look online for free assets or post in the collaboration thread: http://forum.unity3d.com/forums/collaboration.17/ and see if any artist/s want to help you make your game.

 

I should rephrase my previous post. You have no hope in videogame design.

 

Someone has just said me that if i publish this game 100% free (so without advertising and shop too) I can use also pikachu sprites and other but he doesn't know if i can also publish 100% free in google play..

 

That person is clueless.

Not for profit, fan made stuff gets shut down all the down. All it does is a mitigating factor in damages.

 

So I cannot do anything even if it is completely free ?

 

not if you want to publish it.

 

Someone know how can i contact nintendo ? I can ask directly to them

I tryed to wrote to noalegal@noa.nintendo.com but i don't receive any response..

 

They will probably take a significant length of time to respond. See if you can find a phone number and call, then ask who the best person to contact is.

 

There is a Phone number but my english is not perfect when i speak ahah

 

Great you tried, but don't get your hopes up. I can't imagine any chance they would ever say yes unless you were paying. Even if you were they probably have exclusive licensing deals signed.
