I Made Pokemon Red & Blue but it's 3D. . . After making some games like Super Mario Bros but its 3D, and The Legend Of Zelda but its 3D, I thought this time around I would go even bigger and try to remake the original Pokemon Red & Blue but in 3D.

Please don't stop doing this, these reimagining of retro games are always extremely interesting every single time!
We cant even enjoy it for ourselves though
I don't care I can't play this myself, I think the whole process of making these games in 3d are very cool and interesting
I agree they're awesome and the day they leak out will be like an early Christmas even if it's several years from now and even if they aren't 100% complete.
Please stop
So part 2?
I'm SUPER down for this! This looks absolutely incredible :D
Yes
Crow vs. Ant plss
i so want to see you play this (ily pcrow thanks for making so much amazing content
Yes
HELL YES
Instead of grayscale, you could use the Pokemon Yellow style, which every town/area has a base color! It shoud be fairly simple to implement and give it a little more atmosphere :) Great work! I hope to be able to play this one day
The towns are all named after a colour for a reason, so it should be sonewhat easy to define a colour palette
If this ever becomes playable, I will cry tears of joy haha. Well done!
You'll never play it because Nintendo would sue everyone involved if it was ever released. It is a cool project though.
@@blindmown yea true they will also say we have 3d pokemon in nintendo switch but would be cool if there were laws like you release it for free by taging original company who made those games and they would be unable to sue you but the world we live in sucks and kills any creativity to be published
@@HeLrAiSiNg1 It all is IP to IP based. Companies like Nintendo, Disney, etc. are famously known for nuking any fan projects, plenty of companies allow it if they either get (at least majority) profit or if the project makes not even a penny. There are some that are much more relaxed like with the Five Nights at Freddy's franchise which has a huge following of talented individuals making games that even have some of the core characters from the original IP. Some companies go on red alert straight away, others even buy the work out and incorporate those involved to make it official, it's a spectrum. The only way he could share the project would be with personal friends, as to the point where there's like 10 copies in existence, to a point in which they never garner the attention of the company as a threat.
More like tears of the kingdom hahahaha
@@TheMultiversalDip exactly those companies are so dirty rich they dont care at this point if you publish it for free and will nuke you worst is nintendo that bowser sold hacked switches not all switches were used to play hacked content for example some were used to dump your own switch games and stuff to play on your pc or phones yuzu for example have a big discord community etc yet nintendo wants to fuck both bowser or anyone whos hacking a switch and obliterate anyone making emulator for switch just horrible team like you said some teams are more open for ppls porting stuff or using their creativity this is the world we should work for

he said he cant release it
Nintendo would nuke him if he released it, they already did such with Pokemon Uranium. Considering the copyright for the original Pokemon Red & Green content doesn't come out into Public Domain until 2065, and even then it'll only be them. It's similar to the Disney and Mickey Mouse situation, where the original versions will enter public domain after a while, but until then it's a no go for anyone.
@@TheMultiversalDipwouldn’t that only be the case if they are making money off of it though?
@@cooley_3807 Nintendo, much like many companies is overprotective of their brand, IP, etc. only a few companies allow such things and most of the time the project will be forced to shut down or face the law, even if you don't make money off it, it can lead to income through indirect sources or hurt the original creators images in some way, this is why you don't see all big fangames of Pokemon, with people having to make games that aren't Pokemon, but take the basic idea of Pokemon. You could release it as a game in this style similar to Pokemon, but it can't use official Pokemon things.
@@cooley_3807nope
Fun Fact! If you play Pokémon Red or Blue (Or any original Gameboy game for that matter!) on a Gameboy color, you can change the color pallet by pressing the directional buttons on the opening "Gameboy color" screen! You can also press the buttons in combination with A, B, Start and Select for ever more color options! Kinda like how you changed the color pallet!
Another fun fact is that if you play Pokemon Yellow on Gameboy Color the game actually has color. It isn't color like a normal GBC game but every town has a different color palette that matches the name of the town (Viridian, Pewter, Cerulean, etc...). The downside is that on the original Gameboy you could turn up the contrast while in Rock Tunnel and you would be able to see (barely) even without using Flash, on a Gameboy Color it is not possible to see in Rock Tunnel unless you have Flash.
@@WichidNixin If you play any of the games on the super game boy you get color palletes that change as you explore through the game, and each pokemon has a unique pallet.
such a huge project! this is awesome 🔥

Using 2d sprites for the battles was definitely the right choice. With the slight squashing+stretching and the rotating camera, it looks really fantastic.

Just notice this now and gotta say this looks dope and loved how you replace stuff like the cilindre “tooth” wall alike with trees and even the battle with all Pokémon’s going around has an desguise method to not giving much 2D paper Mario style was kinda nice😮
This is amazing work! Makes you truly appreciate the work that goes into game design.

I suggest filling the empty space between routes with trees so it appears as a dense forest rather than floating platforms. Excellent job so far.
yeah tought about that to, bit weird loooking out into a empty void XD
First video of yours I seen. You earned my sub many times over. Great work on the game, it looks phenomenal.
This looks so cool. The battles with the flat pokemon actually looked better than I expected it to, because you don't lose the magic of the original sprites.
3:50 I HIGHLY recommend you look into Terrain objects. They're basically flat plains that you can paint details into (textures, elevation, holes, etc). Pretty sure you can even paint objects on them, such as trees. Probuilder is great, but I think you should use that for objects and Terrains for, well, terrain. P.S: Sorry if there are other longer comments from me with this information. On my end, it looks like my comment keeps getting deleted. I think it's because I tried to provide a link to Unity Learn? Apologies for any spam and the lack of a link.
I am dum
Would terrains allow you to get tile-perfect textures and slopes, though? They’re kind of designed to blend textures and have smooth terrain for more realistic-looking games, last I looked.
@@Tustin2121 That’s a good question. And to be honest, I’d need to look at terrains more to be sure. For textures, you could probably use a square brush to give off that feel, though I’m not sure how grid-like that can look without some sort of snapping or guideline to reference. As for elevated terrain, I think the biggest issue would indeed be the slopes. But I still think it would be better to use terrain as a base and then use probuilder objects as needed for slopes. Edit: I went into Unity to poke around with terrain. I thought using a square brush and turning down softness would allow for hard edges. Turns out I was wrong.
i want to play this.

@@dontplsgx7934 how does that translate to “Soon” lmao
I will be honest, this video kinda inspired me to think of an idea for a game that is stylized to be in black and white art style like this.
This is such a cool project omg! Thanks for sharing this video with us, it was very interesting! : D I d love to see this project finished one day!♥️
The coolest part of this was being able to see the tall buildings of different cities from a far distance. Remember how at the end/start of an episode Ash,Brock and misty would see a new city in the distance and excitingly run towards it? It’s a emersion feature from the anime I never realized I missed from the games until I saw your vid. So neat!
I literally almost crapped seeing Silph Co. because you really don't get an idea of its scale in game.
honestly, the way you handled the sprite battles seems like the best possible solution not just in saving yourself a TON of time/effort but also in style. The sprites are really iconic and I think the 3d voxel effect works really well in the more chibi representative style of the overworld, but the more realistic/representative battle sprites I just don't think would have looked good in voxels, even if you were really skilled at it. and the little paper mario flip while the camera pans around, SO cool!!
Yeah I agree
Dude….way impressive, this is genuinely one of the coolest revamps that I have ever seen, this 3d version slaaaaapsss bro.
This looks amazing, and I actually loved that first attempt at Bulbasaur, the old games looked hideous, and we love them. Don't sell yourself short for not being perfect enough.
If a single person can already make a Pokemon fan game at this scale and level, imagine what can a whole team can do! Dang! This is what I call a "loyal" remake to the OG games!
there was a game called pokemon vr but the group that was hosting it wanted to make money so the ditched pokemon and made their own creatures i was heartbroken to see it go bc it was amazing to see them all in vr. I now play pixelmon on my minecraft and thats is super satisfying riding a charizard through the air or on the back of a venusaur. also playable in vr
would have preferred this one-man-work which looks absolutly stunning and keeps the retro charm over the cheap ass mobile graphics remake of diamond pearl that the multi billion pokemon company put out last november
Too bad the actual pokemon company can't spend a little bit more money and boot gamefreak
Check out Pokémon 3D.
@@jackkawf4449 imagine what masterpieces of pokemon we'd get if TPC gave gamefreak more money and more time... gamefreak already shows what they're capable of gameplay wise with Legends Arceus and with time and money it could've looked just as good. For comparison Ninja Theory has 120 Employees, their last accomplishment was Hellblade, a fairly good Indie Game against 143 Employees at gamefreak working for the biggest franchise in the world.
Would love to see a complete remake of this, every pokemon, every attack, all buildings accesible. I know that it would take such a long time but it would be really cool to see.
The best would be if its playeble ^^
Yes :)
I would pay for that!
My man needs a team.
*NINTENDO LAWYERS INTENSIFIES*
This is amazing. Something that your shaders could benefit from is visual hierarchy. Meaning that you can dim down the colors of your tiles depending on how important they are to the navigation. The trees could be dimmed down a lot and not use black in them, but lighter gray tones so that they are not as visually overwhelming. Same for the water and the rocks on the cliff. If you start making a system of rules of how "important" each element is for the overall view or navigation, you can end up with a much better looking environment. The main character can be the one that has the most contrasting elements. And maybe the outline and doors of the houses and buildings could be on the same level. The walls and windows could be dimmed down a little bit. The grass can be at a very low level. Just opaque or contrasting enough so that it adds texture and you see that it's there if you pay attention, but that otherwise it just becomes part of the background and doesn't distract you from the actual game navigation. Basically using the principles of "value" in paintings.
omg so geniusly resolved the battle graphics...
the animation at the end was the best part!

Awesome work, congratulations and thanks for sharing! Now here is a thing: I honestly feel a 2D Ash would look better in a 3D overworld, much like how you did the 2D Pokémon in battle.

The interiors could be another part of the map that it's isolated from the rest of the world, like the Ghost Town of Grand Theft Auto 3, and surrounded with black walls like what you would see in Pokemon when you are in an interior and watch what is around the walls of any room.

Would LOVE to see part 2 for this! Maybe you can include Red in the battle scene and include some environmental details to spruce it a little? Maybe as simple as those scattered grass tilesets from the overworld on the ground could help.
I love Pokémon games because of how relaxing and laid back they were
Now THIS is awesome. How do you plan to do the battles? i would have it where random battles still trigger while walking in typical zones where they occur but the screen changed to a 3d model of the area your in which is a cave, water front with the docks around like cinnebar island, and even in gym trainer battles you could create a gym and tweak it depending on which gym leader your fighting. Im not sure how far this game is right now but you can redesign 3d sprites of all pokemon and include them in battle and just keep the same engine of the origonal game when it comes to how pokemon level and what stats go up by what per level. you will have to design the attacks each pokemon has lol but you can get an idea of how to do that from pokemon stadium. Kind of like Final Fantasy 7 where random battles trigger and transport you to a set battle field outide in nature or showing the slums or midgar on disc 1. Looks good! keep up the great work!
This is really cool! The only thing I’d recommend is to try and fill in the areas between the parts of the maps, even if it’s just all trees, it will add to the feeling of being able to see other cities in the distance. Also i think the mountains would look cool coming op over the trees
