Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: HARDCORE

[Mad MOAI]

Inspired by a random Seviper drawing and two hardcore Pokemon cards, I now have a sprite comic of a Pokemon exploration team that seems to be getting off the ground. Some of you may remember me from when I made PMD: Luster last year, but I had screwed up the plot and characters so bad that I ran out of good ideas and I had to discontinue it. So now I'm glad to be making another sprite comic about mystery dungeon. :D

Welcome to PMD: HARDCORE, a story about a whimsical human-turned-Seviper and a pacifist Scyther by the name of Skyler. Their first experience is an unnatural situation to most, but just a standard ritual to Skyler's family. Want to know more? Read on!

Note: The amount of spoilers for PMD2 in this comic is minimized, but it may reveal the presence of a few different locations and most likely nothing more.

This is awesome!

 

[Mad MOAI]

Glad you think so. ^^

Also, issue 10 is up now. I think my goal will be to get this comic farther than Luster, AKA 53 issues. (Luster only had 52.)

 

[Pwnemon]

It almost seems like a viable storyline, and for that, I commend you. It even has the whole Nintendo attempt-at-humor-nobody-actually-finds-funny thing, such as the line about the guildmaster being lazy.. Though if you weren't going for that I swear I never said it.

After the long break of using a laptop, I posted four more issues today. Be sure to read them if you haven't already. :)

Also, my mother plans to get rid of the computer I currently use for making this comic, although I can transfer the files to my laptop and use the image editor on my laptop instead. It might take a bit of adjusting, but I'll probably be updating more often after that since my laptop is way faster than the other computer.

 

[Pwnemon]

Could we have some more pwease?

 

[Mad MOAI]

Yep. Just put issue 20 up. School's going on right now, but fortunately I don't have a lot of homework yet so I'll be able to update this frequently.

Nice comic! Though I have to say you should involve your words in more with the pictures, because I don't even look at them, and that just wastes time.

 

[Mad MOAI]

Feeling the need to make up at least a little bit for my procrastination, I put up two new issues today, as I haven't added any for... two or three days.

And brandman, I'm guessing you mean make the characters' quotes illustrate the pictures more? I think I can do that a bit without making it sound cheesy.

 

[Pwnemon]

Are you still making these?

 

[Mad MOAI]

Yeah, I am, but the laptop on which I make them broke down and needs to be repaired. I just sent it in to get fixed and got it back. It worked for a day and then broke down again, so now I need to get it fixed again. :/

Long story short, my laptop doesn't like HARDCORE very much.

 

[Mad MOAI]

Sorry for the wait, everyone! My laptop seems to be behaving all right for the moment, and so I made another issue of HARDCORE. I'll definitely make more, unless my laptop breaks down again and I have to get it wiped ... but I might eventually find a solution to that.
