POKEMON - HEARTLINK VERSION

"You’ve just arrived in Linkroot, looking to start your journey. But this region remembers everything."

Pokémon Heartlink is a personal, fan-made RPG adventure set in the original region of Auralis, created in Unity.
It’s not affiliated with Nintendo, Game Freak, or The Pokémon Company — and it is not for sale or monetization of any kind. This is a passion project, built for fun, learning, and storytelling.

A Fresh Vision

Here’s the twist:
I’ve never played an official Pokémon game.

Heartlink isn’t a copy or remake — it’s a reimagination, built from the ground up through my own vision of what a Pokémon journey could be. Inspired by strategy, narrative design, and emotional choices, this game leans into morality, intent, and identity over just catching ‘em all.

The Story (NO SPOILERS!)

You begin in the quiet town of Linkroot, welcomed by the enigmatic Professor Thorne. Your goal? Simple: grow, explore, battle, connect.
But Auralis holds secrets beneath its roots.
Your choices—big and small—leave ripples behind.
And someone, somewhere, is paying attention.

“It’s not about being the strongest trainer.
It’s about what kind of trainer you become.”

Development Status

• In active development — no release window, but worked on daily

• Polished and play-tested at every stage

• Consistency, clarity, and emotional payoff are top priorities

• Built entirely from scratch — no ROM hacks, no engines, no shortcuts

Key Features (So Far)

• A morality-aware battle and dialogue system

• A fully modular narrative engine

• Wild encounters, Pokémon systems, inventory, healing centers, and exploration

• Dynamic reactions based on how you treat your team and use your power

Disclaimer

Pokémon Heartlink is a non-commercial, fan-made project.
It is completely free, made with love and no affiliation with official Pokémon IP holders. I’m making this as a creative outlet and learning opportunity — nothing more.

Final Note

If you’re looking for a new kind of Pokémon experience — one that responds to who you are, not just what you do — I hope this project resonates with you.
Thanks for reading, and for sharing in something that means a lot to me.
