Hi GameDev! I’m the creator of Pokemon World, an independent Pokemon fan game that runs in the browser. The English version launched in March 2026, and I’d like to share it and hear how the opening experience feels to other developers.
You can start as a guest without downloading anything, choose a first partner, explore Pallet Town and begin building a team. Creating an account lets you save your progress. The game includes catching, training and evolving Pokemon, gyms, PvP, trading and clans.
I’m especially interested in feedback on the first few minutes: are the starter selection and next steps clear, and where would you make the introduction smoother?

Free to start; optional purchases are available. This is an independent fan project, not affiliated with Nintendo, Game Freak or The Pokemon Company. This showcase was prepared with AI assistance.
Starting as a guest with no download is the right call for a browser game. The question I’d test is how quickly you get to the first catch. If account creation or long dialogue comes before that, it’s where browser players drop off.
lil bro is gonna lose his parents’ house to nintendo
i’m not gonna shame you for promoting slop but using slop to steal ip and try to hustle off it? good luck lol
ay man, you do you, im not a lawyer, good luck
Nintendo is famously litigious even with legitimate fangames. Including purchases in this is asking for legal trouble.
