_Here's some extra information that isn't required to play the game, but might still be interesting.
Since this is a Python game, some elements will have to be changed from the original version. Here are some examples of challenging changes.
The game has to keep track of the many variables that make up a Save File. These include:
These are stored in a Python dictionary variable, which is then saved to the external file .ppr-save via Python's json module.
Not to be confused with save data, game data is composed of the numbers and calculations that the game uses. These include:
Large sets of data may be stored as .json files in the project folder. This is done to keep the program files concise. These files may be added, removed, or changed at any time.
Save file templates contain all the things the game must keep track of between sessions. On each save or load, the player's file is automatically updated with the latest data, in case an update was performed. This means that when the game is updated, the player can copy their .ppr-save file into the new version, and the save file will automatically be updated with the latest data.
Pokémon Red is full of menus that look like the following:
Would you like to save your progress?
> Save
Don't Save
This has been changed to be more suitable for a text-adventure game:
Would you like to save your progress? Y/N
>_This is done with code similar to the following:
import json
save = {
# Save Data
}
print('Would you like to save your progress? Y/N')
saveOption = ' '
while saveOption.lower()[0] not in ['y', 'n']:
saveOption = input('>') + ' '
if saveOption.lower()[0] in ['y']:
open('.ppr-save', 'w').write(json.dumps(save))
print('Game saved successfully!')The user can use multiple save files by moving or backing up their .ppr-save file to a different directory on their device. This has been implemented in the interest of user-friendliness and safety. Save files can easily be backed up, reset, or shared.
Pokémon games use Mystery Gifts to bring communities together and incentivise players to take part in events, and Pokémon PythonRed is no different. Codes can be given out in planned giveaway events to specific people, left online to be found by anyone, or even given in-person to specific people. Most of them are online, so you should try looking in places @TurnipGuy30 has been.
As of the time of writing, Mystery Gifts have not yet been implemented into the game. The base game will have to be completed first. For now, keep track of any codes you find.
Pokémon PythonRed Mystery Gift codes are easy to identify because they will always be given in the following format:
Pokémon PythonRed Mystery Gift #20: "POKEMONPYTHONRED"
(Yes, this is a valid code. Consider it a free trial. You're welcome.)
Redeemed codes will reward a player with in-game items or Pokémon.
Any person or group who finds or receives a code has no responsibility to keep it to themselves unless otherwise stated by the giver of the code.
Mystery Gifts are meant to unite the community and provide a fun way to interact with the game.
