Maxxemon - A Pokemon-inspired RPG

This next game is a smaller project, and was originally made as a birthday gift to send off a close friend of mine to grad school. However, with permission, I'm uploading it here as well. Centered around Maxximus, a biology major at the University of Houston, you traverse the map and collect ANIMALS, in an RPG system similar to the Pokemon series. The game was made without scripts in RPG Maker VX Ace, using the Omega Modern asset pack, and utilizing music from Pokemon Diamond/Pearl/Platinum, Mother 3, and Mother: Cognitive Dissonance. Custom sprite work done by Kaleidocat. 

You'll start the game picking our your starter, and from there, you can select your ANIMALS in battle through the ITEMS menu. They can either use ITEMS, ATTACK, or build up stamina to use SPECIALS. Providing you have BioBalls, you can capture one ANIMAL of each type and use it in future battles (excepting bosses). There is one secret ANIMAL that may require some backtracking, but I hope it'll be worth the effort. This is a more grind-heavy game, so you may have to spend some time levelling up each of your ANIMALS before proceeding to the next area. 

To install, click this link and download the .exe file. Despite Windows' apprehensions, it's not a virus. Run it, and select a folder to install the game files in. Then, go into the folder "Maxxemon" and click the application under the same name. After that, have fun!
