Hi guys, I'm feeling a lot better thanks for your concern and support.
So last week I talked about making a non-gaming announcement this week. After 6 years of being with my girlfriend I proposed to her this weekend! and she said yes! I actually made her a very small game as part of the proposal since I am a game developer after all. She loved it and we are very happy, next step is to plan the wedding >.< haha so lets get back to games!
Okay so PTD 2, this week I'm gearing up to work all out on getting this ready. Like always I like to be very open about what I'm working on so I will post a progress list of what I have to do and will be updating it all this week as I make progress on it.
Party Selection Screen (100%)- Slightly refined, added new sorting options that you guys requested, plus additional settings to each sorting option as seen in the pictures below.
Pokemon Upgrade Screen (60%) - Adding the two suggestions that you guys requested, being able to change your pokemon in the screen and showing the pokemon's stats. Other additions are showing the nickname of the pokemon along with its name, showing the gender by symbol and background color. Also you can see that you can see your abilities and their description and also change them before the level. Finally I added a new pokedex button that will take you to the pokedex information of this pokemon. It will be more detailed than in ptd 1. You can see a work in progress shot below. (Note: I'm using pokemon with random moves in them for testing purposes, you can't learn these move on Onix without hacking)
Pokemon Store Screen (0%)
Level 1 (0%)
Any attacks that need to be modified (50%) - Setting up the new stacking debuff mechanics. No longer will stat changing attack run out. They will also stack so you have to keep applying it to get the max effect. Watch the video below for a small preview. The graphic will get slightly bigger and stack as the debuff stacks. Also your pokemon will prioritize targets that have the lowest stack or no stack at all.
Loading (0%)
During the week I will keep adding more things and updating what I'm working on. This will give you a better look at where I am at with getting the release done.
That is all I have for today, keep checking back for more. As always let me know what you think!

DeleteCongratulations!! :)
Deletecongratz sam!!!!!!! i bought 10 snd coins as a wedding gift to u cuz the money goes to you ya know
Delete'grats
ReplyDeleteIs ptd 2 going to have breeding?
ReplyDeleteyes
Deletehow will it work? u go to poekmon center place the two pokemon u want to breed then wait for 30 min then u can take the pokemon out of pokemon center to use it once more, then wait even more for the egg to hatch maybe 1 day is my guess? ALSO can u make new pokemon, by breeding two different types of pokemon like a dragonite with a gyarados = gydragodos? or something like that?
Deletedude. yhat is cool but freaky
DeleteSecond!
ReplyDeleteCongratz man!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteSam, can u add other kinds of pokemon like other than shiny or shadow and make NEW types like maybe ruby or emerald?
DeleteHope u hav fun on ur wedding
congrats on proposal! SECOND!!!
ReplyDeleteor maybe i was fifth. :P
Deleteoops! i was sixth!
DeleteHow can u still not be al... never mind okay so will ho-oh be catchable in PTD2?
ReplyDeleteyes sir
DeleteYes I wantd Ho-Oh IN THE GAME! YOU ARE AWSOME MAN!
Deleteho-oh will be in the game but it might be SUPER rare. -lv100lucario
DeleteI'm not a sir I'm just 11
Deletelook at the starting video for ptd2 and its obvious that ho-oh would be in it i mean it is the johto one
Deletesame here im 11 and my name is finn i have tons of ideas 4 ptd 2 so reply if u wabt to hear them
DeleteCongrats!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if you addressed this earlier, but do you plan to add diamond/pearl pokemon that evolve from pokemon in red/blue and gold/silver (e.g. porygon-z, rhyperior, magmortar)?
ReplyDeleteI think I will since I will add hold items
DeleteAWESOME!!
DeleteWhat about about Leafeon, Glaceon, Magnezone, and Probopass? They have to be in a certain area.(ie. mossy rock, icy rock and Mt. Coronet)
DeleteDo you intend to offer any more polls for Mystery Gifts?
ReplyDeleteyes, most likely after the first mystery gift is about to come out.
Deletewill the proposal game ever be made public or is it too personal?
ReplyDeleteIt's pretty personal but I might post screen shots.
Deletei cant blame u for that but, would there be a way to make another version of the game that is less personal?
Deletekrookodile king
p.s.will u make the other options for mystery gifts (axew,deino,sandile) other mystery gifts?
Looks solid congrats on the engagement! Also can you address the trade evolution so that there is a way to cancel it? Maybe trading while holding an ever stone?
ReplyDeleteDarren
holding the ever stone might work, I'll cross that one once we get there.
DeleteDon't you think you should have the one verses one mode on there?
ReplyDeleteAll the items listed above are for the one on one mode
Deletecongrats
ReplyDeletethanks:)
DeleteSam You sly dog. haha jks, congrats dude. also glad you are feeling better. just a quick question. will we be getting different avatars to play as in PTD2 or will they carry over from PTD1?
ReplyDeletecongrats
ReplyDeleteGood on ya SAM my main man from the UK.
ReplyDeleteAlso sam what are the Level User Interface, Pokemon Store Screen, Pokemon Upgrade Screen? What are they used for?
ReplyDeletethose are all for the 1v1 mode, different screens that will be in that mode
DeletePresumably, the level user interface is something about selecting what difficulty/level you want to play, the Pokemon store would be where you can buy more Pokemon, and the Pokemon upgrade screen would be where you upgrade them XD
DeleteCongratulations man.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Sam. I know from recent experience (about a year ago) that the time of planning, and maybe moving, is a wondefull and unique time. Enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm looking forward on your progress on PTD2, but keep your priorities straight :-)
Thanks! Will do!
Deletehry sam dont forget th abiities of the pokemon!
ReplyDeleteyou biggest fan
mr.x
yes in ptd2 every pokemon will have their abilities
DeleteCongratulations!
ReplyDeletecongratulations sam!! were all very excited to play this game!!! me and my friend help each other out all the time! wonderful game-- codie
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Sam !!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Sam!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteSam, Can you make Tm/Hm price from the powerful that move?
ReplyDeletei mean like this:
The move that is attack do bad the price is 9.000 Pokedollar
The move that is attack do normal the price is 10.000 Pokedollar
The move that is have powerful attack the price is 11.000 Pokedollar
Makes sense to me
Deletei agree sam tht sounds like a great idea
DeleteOr maybe weak moves could cost 5000 Pokedollars, a normal-damage attack can cost 10,000 pokedollars, and a powerful move can cost 15,000 Pokedollars. That way if you have it as a weak attack costs something like 9000 and a strong attack only costs 2000 more or so, that person would just easily earn 2000 in about 10-15 (maybe 20) minutes. Just a thought.
DeleteOoh, this I want to have. B/
Delete-Kevin
will the three dogs be catchable in this game and can the next mystery gift be white kyurem from white 2
ReplyDeleteyes, and no
DeleteThis is major event!! Everyone gear up for the CELEBRATIONS!!!
ReplyDeleteWooo!
Deleteget ready to get your party rocking on
DeleteYeah. Cel---ebrate good times come on. (I will)
DeleteI have an idea! When PTD 2 1v1 Mode is out, I will have a fresh caught Mew auction! They are all regular, but some are
Deletehacked. Let me know whatever kinds of Pokémon (no Legendaries or Shiny/Shadow (except Missingno.)) you want me to giveaway! I can also give Starter Pokémon! Just don't try to ask me for my entire Pokémon Storage (most of it is hacked anyway.). :)
-Kevin
Congratulations on your proposal! Could we play the mini game as an extra? Just a little question :P
ReplyDeleteI hope the next update is ready soon, i'm just waiting for it :P
Congratulation!
ReplyDeleteAnd I have a question, do you have a ETA on PTD 2?
This has nothing to do with anything on PTD2 but on PTD1 when I bought a random shadow Pokemon IT WAS A SHAWDOW MEW HORRAY
ReplyDeleteThe same happened to me just this morning! YESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!
Deleteyou spelt shadow wrong
DeleteCongratz on your proposal, can't wait to play the first level:D
ReplyDeleteWow Sam, that's great for what you were asking your girlfriend. And I can't wait for ptd2. And i was playing another pokemon game called pokemon crystal . Now that game that i played had the same starters just like the starters in ptd2 but good luck on the game though.
ReplyDeletePokémon Crystal is basically an adapted version of Pokémon Gold and Pokémon Silver (Gold, Silver and Crystal are all Gen 2, by the way), like Pokémon Platinum is to Pokémon Diamond and Pokémon Pearl.
Deletetnxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx sam
ReplyDeleteWow congratulations man that great to hear :) Anyway would you know how far away your brothers Video is coming along? Can't wait for this game!!!

DeleteCongratulations man.
ReplyDeleteI remember when I proposed, scariest moment of my life. It was a few Months ago. But our wedding isn't for another year (thank God) I'm only 18 so most of the expenses will be bought by my mom and dad haha.
Good luck in the future!
Grats man! I wish you the best :)
DeleteHi Sam,
ReplyDeleteI've got a idea like this: If you have finished 1vs1 mode :p
Then you can make a match. Where you will have a clann for a month. With the clann you must to beat other clans. The first clan will win snd coins, but you can have this challenge 3 times in the year. I hope you liked it (if you read it :p)
im dont even have the guts to ask someone out :( .... well done and good luck.
ReplyDeleteMay the force and arceus be with you :D
force no, arceus rock on
DeleteI know how you feel :(
Deletemy girl dumped me a month ago, so i know how you feel. anyway we are not in starwars, go to ... wookie land or somewhere luke skywalker :)
DeleteThanks everybody! You guys are the best!
ReplyDeletemaybe we are good but your the best :P you are making great games for all of us and we just can´t wait until your new master piece will come out :D ^^
DeleteWell done
Deleteyeah back to ptd2 progress!!
ReplyDeleteRock on for that
Deletehi sam, i want you to know that i hope you wil be happy with your girlfriend. and i hope you will keep on going with making these games, but i understand that the wedding is more important then the games.
ReplyDeleteCongrats!!! I wish to you to have a happy wedding!
ReplyDeletecongrats Sam. i was wondering if lugia would also be in the game? oh and just a little favor, if you can make lucario/riolu the 3rd or 4th mystery gift? maybe make another poll please??!! again, congrats (thums up)
ReplyDeleteYes, Lugia will be in the game
DeleteCongrats
ReplyDeleteAre we getting the regis in PTD2?
ReplyDeleteCould you have the next poll be between the following pokemon for the second Mystery Gift (all shiny or shadow): Hoothoot, Togepi, Magby, Pichu and Elekid (Elekid, Pichu, and Magby because they are Odd Egg pokemon and I don't know if you are going to have the odd egg.
ReplyDeleteCONGRATS ON THE WIFE
Congratulations!! Hope you have a happy wedding!
ReplyDeleteCONGRATULATIONS, SAM!!! The PTD stuff is great, too, but that was really what I wanted to say. :D
ReplyDeleteGood that you feel better, keep us in touch with progress lists so we can see what you did.
ReplyDelete-Tregger
Dude hope all plans fall into place for you :D
ReplyDeleteCongrats man! I am so happy for you and i hope you have a happy honeymoon :)
ReplyDeletewhich one sam,i herd you liek weegee or i herd you liek mudkipz
ReplyDeleteSalamance413 can we customize our own avatar and 4 some Mg we can win things like pikachu sunglassees or totadile shirt
ReplyDeleteSam congratulations glad your having better lady luck then me, whats her name. and can we just get this clear are there ever going to be legendary as mystery gifts because considering they play a big role in the region there shouldn't be.
ReplyDeleteand will we get our starter for 1v1 mode and permenint level ups or just a for fun mode
ReplyDeleteSam, don't mean to jinx you or anything but i hear that usually when someone dates someone for years then they finally get married it doesn't turn out great "usually", but congrats anyway. :) Question is Ho-oh and Lugia the only legendary Pokemon in the game? Also I choose Blue path not the red but can I change without having to start over? Happy wedding!!! "Also I'm not a sir nor ma'am I'm A boy!"
ReplyDeleteWILL WE STILL BE ABLE TO USE OUR KANTO POKEMON EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE LEVEL 100 I WANT TO USE MY MEWTWO SO BAD!! congrats with the marriage!
ReplyDeleteAfter the 8th Gym, yes.
DeleteCan darkrai be a mystery gift in PTD2
ReplyDeletei know WAY TO EARLY to thnk about this but will u make a PTD3 with deoxys in it? or can u just place a deoxys in PTD2?
ReplyDeleteinstead of having 2 boys to follow u like stalkers can a girl join, like ash he always had a girl in his little team (first misty, then may, then dawn, and finally iris)? maybe maruto gets ill then has to go home or... dies.
ReplyDeleteyes, i like that idea. it is a bit sexist, the whole game you are being followed by two boys. i must admit that if anyone deserves to die it is ash...i always hated him.
DeleteSam nice job! Party
ReplyDeleteCongrats!!! I wish to you to have a happy wedding! o Felicidades amigo feliz boda sam
ReplyDeleteHi Sam, congrats on your proposal! I do have a few questions, though. Will Eevee be obtainable in PTD 2? I just want to know if I will need to catch 5 Eevees in PTD 1 in order to get all the shiny Eeveelutions in PTD 2. Also, will there be a separate Pokemon Center for 1 and 2, or will it be the same for both games? Lastly, some suggestions on moves to fix would be making Safeguard apply to all Pokemon just like Reflect and Light Screen do, having Baton Pass work on Aqua Ring and Substitute, and a distant reminder to include Blast Burn, Frenzy Plant, Hydro Cannon, and Draco Meteor when we eventually get to Blackthorn, which I know is very far in the future. Congrats again!
ReplyDeleteThere's only one Eevee that you can obtain. :)
Delete-Kevin
Sam sence we are gonna have breeding that means our pokemon are going to have gender right? I think that when someone wants to see there pokemon to set what pokwmon they want to use the little gender symbol is on the top right of the square.
ReplyDeleteIn PTD2 can Hydro Cannon be A TM?
ReplyDeleteSadly, Hydro Cannon (along with Frenzy Plant & Blast Burn) is not a TM and cannot be learned by starters until Gen. III. ;(
Delete-Kevin
Congrats!
ReplyDeleteSam i can only say to you that you should take your time whit the weeding and all and just then start working in the game i would like you would do that because you and your personal feelings for someone come first later do the game
ReplyDeleteLol You wrote "weeding"
DeleteSorry to say this, but even though I know what you are saying, wedding and weeding are 2 different meanings. Don't worry, I KNOW THAT FEEL BRO. (B|)>
Delete-Kevin
will you be able to name your pokemon?also congrats!
ReplyDeleteWill be be able to use the Great Ball, Ultra Ball, Master Ball, Premier Ball, Safari Ball, Repeat Ball, Timer Ball, Nest Ball, Net Ball, Dive Ball, Luxury Ball, Heal Ball, Quick Ball, and the Dusk Ball instead of just that Original Ball?
ReplyDeleteMaybe all, but it's likely that the Poké Ball, Great Ball, Ultra Ball, Master Ball, Safari Ball, Level Ball, Lure Ball, Moon Ball, Friend Ball, Love Ball, Heavy Ball, Fast Ball, & Sport Ball will be in-game. But hey, it's Sam's call. :)
Delete-Kevin
Congrats! I don't even know why you put the progress chart up there! Just take a break, you're getting married! Trust me, no matter how much the community whines, we can wait for PTD2, right guys? I speak on behalf of everyone here. May the best of luck be with you!
ReplyDeleteSpeak for yourself -.-
DeleteYea I want Sam to enjoy for tis be a day of triumph, but please speck on your behalf not everyones, because im quite anxious for the game to come out.
DeleteI know, Pokamanz! :)
Delete-Kevin
Great job Sam!
ReplyDeleteCongrats with the wedding, and I'm glad you feel better!
ReplyDeletehey i was right!!! u r getting married how did i guess i should get an award what do u say sam?
ReplyDeletejust kidding congratulations on ur new engagement and whats this special girls name?

I really want a longer story with cool settings! Thanks for working so hard to make us proud!
ReplyDeleteSam can u please do a day countdown on when PTD 2 will come out. Please, i reckon that would be a great idea for fans. That way it would be more exiting.
ReplyDeleteHey Sam how's your new house and room coming along, if good than please post a photo on twitter. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteSam are u going to put ur pokemon up for trade in ptd 2 as well.
ReplyDeleteHey Sam,

how about a special shadow pokemon in the game corner and user can buy it by using casino coins
ReplyDeleteand each month will have different pokemon in the game corner
Congradulations! Tell us about the ring :D
ReplyDeleteSam are u enjoying wimbledon tennis? Are u going to it?
ReplyDeleteI can't answer your twitter because i don't have one(and don't want to make one). But about the party sort system: it would be great if you added a 2. priority system. like you could choose first type, and then level
ReplyDeleteThat is good, and congrats on the engagement.
ReplyDeletecongratulations and the following pokemon should be later mystery gifts:
ReplyDeleteshiny hoot-hoot
herrocross
crobat
celibi
and pichu
Best of luck with the wedding. ;D Congratz!
ReplyDeleteunbelievable! the guy who can say that is my hero (because of the incredible game PTD) is getting married?! congratulations man
ReplyDeletePS: I'm Brazilian
PSS: sorry for the second comment the other was wrong (I use google translator and I'm used to use, 'and'('e') as 'is'('e with an accent'))
Congrats on your engagement. What's the timeframe that you're looking at for PTD2? From my perspective, I can see it coming out at the end of July. Am I right in my assumption?
ReplyDeleteNice job on the engagement Sam! Hope it goes well. I have 3 questions to ask.
ReplyDelete1. Will we be able to catch Unova pokemon since Zorua is the 1st mystery gift?
2. Can the chances for SnD Coins in the daily gift go up to like 10 percent? (only on rare)
3. In the story line, there should be another evil pokemon along with Mewthree. I would suggest Shadow Lugia. Could that please go into the story line?
Thanks ahead of time.
-Hunter16
Good luck with the wedding sam! ^-^
