A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

Metronome is a, very much WIP, Pokemon themed visual novel. Rife with humor, and maybe even a little romance, work alongside anthropomorphic Pokemon to bring both their dreams and your own to life!

The premise of this tale will revolve around you helping run a DynaMax Raid Den! Giving Pokemon a safe place to grow to silly sizes and blow off steam engaging in harmless rampages of their personalized choosing!

For now think of this demo as a taste of the kind of humor you can expect from the eventual finished product along with a sneak peek at some of the characters! No growth or Dynamaxing just yet alas. Perhaps in the next update.

STATUS: Version 0.1

DISCLAIMER: This is my very first attempt at writing much less coding something like this and I'm certain it shows. I'm still cutting my teeth on this and it takes a lot of time to not just write and draft this out but, with any luck, coordinate with artists to breathe some life into this undertaking. Updates, should they come, will be slow.

Furthermore, do be aware that the themes explored in future updates will be, gasp, decidedly risque! 

Finally this work will, and forever shall, remain free for you to consume. For fairly obvious reasons I cannot and adamantly will not profit off of this work. This is a passion project and will remain as such.

Hey there! I just finished playing through all of the paths with Rika the Rhydon, and while I am certainly looking forward to seeing more than just her, if the next update is just entirely about Rika's paths, I'll be satisfied. Your writing is incredibly descriptive and humorous, just as it has been for your stories on FA in the last decade. I immensely appreciate all of this being free. Still, at the same time, I feel a smidge guilty for indulging in it without supporting you - none of the paths leave the player character's house, and yet I can't remember the last time I read something so charming. Thank you for sharing what you've written with the wider world, and whatever you plan for the next update, I am sure it will be amazing. Best wishes and stay safe!~

Hello hello! I honestly don't know where to start with such kind and heartfelt feedback! ;w;

First and foremost thank you so much for taking the time to read this! The presentation isn't all that much to write home about yet I'm so happy to hear you enjoyed your time with Rika. She'll be the avenue through which you will end up meeting most if not all of the other characters so I'm thrilled to know she hasn't overstayed her welcome! Fingers crossed you enjoy your time with the rest of the cast as they're introduced!

As for supporting me these comments do wonders! Given the IP I'm playing around with I, flat out, cannot accept any kind of monetary aid for this endeavor. The sentiment means so so so much though!

That and thank YOU for letting me know how much you enjoyed what I've wrangled together so far and for reading what other shenanigans I've been lobbing up over the years. It means so much!
