Pokemon Zero

[Alpha Six]

Four questions.
1.How are you going to do features and stuff? Like the primitive system in DPP contests, or making individuals coats and hats for every Pokemon?
2.What will some of the new Pokemon look like?
3.Are you giving Zangoose an evolution?
4. Why WASD? isn't it easier to use the arrow keys?

1) Individual coats, hats, wristbands etc. Pokemon might be assembled with multiple pieces so it's easier to do the customization, but I'm not quite sure. Really, this'll be up to the programmer once I find one.

2) I can't really explain, but I'm hoping to get more of a 2nd-3rd gen feel, rather than 4th.

3) No. Zangoose is far too mighty to need an evolution.

4) Attacks are assigned to the numpad; putting the main controls on the arrow keys will force you to put your hands close to each other, which will make it incredibly difficult to control your character or your Pokemon. Also considering there are specific button combinations that are supposed to be next to your movement keys for easy access.
However, if you own a gamepad, it'll just be a lot easier to play anyway because you can configure Xpadder to input your button commands and act on them accordingly.
Controls will also be mappable(changeable), so I wouldn't worry on it that much anyways.
