EKANS EATER: The Ultimate Mission
Made in RPG Maker 2003 (Manaics patch by BingShan)
Based on Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, A Delibird from a postal guild must go on a sneaking mission to obtain a gift from an anonymous messenger. This game takes place in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Universe. If any fan is interested in somewhat deep world-building in the series, this might be up your alley.
Gameplay:
Unlike most Pokémon fan games, you can't take down a squad alone. Sneaking is part of your mission; don't get caught. Use whatever resources you have and can find in the harsh weather environment, and get to your goal.

Current Zipped Version:
Changelog 1.3
Alert and Evasion Music tracks are now fixed.
Due to a small oversight, thanks to the manaics patch, the mouse can be used to interact with dialogue messages. Another benefit of using the maniacs patch is the ability to hold down shift to advance quicker in cutscenes.
Fixed STRUGGLE to be used when the player runs out of PP.
Known issues: Enemies can still spot the player when eliminated with blast seeds.
Changelog 1.2
Fixed items from being used multiple times despite exceeding the item limit.
Damaged wood tiles can now be walked on.
The credits animation is fixed so that Delibird appears and climbs the ladder.
Fixed a few spelling mistakes in cutscenes.
Currently looking: Alert/Evasion Tracks appears to have a bugged loop point
Lagacy version(s)
Hi, Oshawott64!
I finished your game yesterday and want to give you some feedback. 😄
General thought: Pretty unique and fun!
Positives:
-Overall the fact that you did sth different (not a basic Pokemon story with catching and fighting)
-The writing was very good
-Great art (Pixel and "normal")
-While Delibird is an odd pick for a special agent (which adds to the charm), stuff like a Sky Commander Braviary, Sniper Inteleon and Mind Reading Malamar were great picks for those kinds of personality.
Negatives:
-It was pretty hard to know where and how Zangoose can spot me. Maybe add like a graphic which shows the vision of Zangoose.
-I didn't really see a reason to switch between moves. Icy Wind seemed like the best, I spammed it and succeeded. 😅
Overall a solid little demo. Can't wait to see how you expand it.
Congrats on submitting something within the deadline! 🎉
