By ManTis on August the 12th, 2008 under the Ekaiyo project
Things not correct in this picture:
-camera position wrong
-mudkip is not a wild pokemon, it's another player
-no gui
-level doesn't use water as a separate layer/mesh, water's not animated/semitransparent
-outline is shitty (best I could whip up so far, still shitty)
-shading uses only 2 stages instead of 3
-no shadows
Other than that, enjoy your first preprod screenshot

love it !

I'm... so.. happy T_T
I never realised how small Mudkip was.
Spotting wild pokemon will be more difficult than I expected.
Good to see some evidence of progress.
Nice work men.
Manne said, on August the 12th, 2008:
This is looking pretty good, and brings a sparkle to my eyes.
Erm, with the GUI what sort of things will be on it?
I might give a crack at making it.
ManTis said, on August the 12th, 2008:
If anyone will ask or say the words 'proof' or 'evidence' in this context again, I'll start banning. Seriously. Everytime I see them I flinch and have urge to flush the project down the drain and shout 'NO WE HAVEN'T WORKED FOR LAST FIVE YEARS, NOW FUCK OFF!'
There, I said it.
TylerOfBodom said, on August the 12th, 2008:
I didn't doubt your progress, Mantis.
I just meant that until now there were no screenshots or anything of gameplay.
Sorry to piss you off man D:
ManTis said, on August the 12th, 2008:
I didn't mean you personally, I've just seen this line WAY too often recently.
TylerOfBodom said, on August the 12th, 2008:
Oh okay, well, my bad anyway.
moomoo said, on August the 12th, 2008:

ManTis said, on August the 12th, 2008:

Axmand said, on August the 15th, 2008:
One proof of the progress, good work.
Swampert4Ever said, on August the 15th, 2008:
Wow it looks great! I love how your naming the characters you use after their Pokemon Special Manga characters. =] Pokemon Special rocks. ^^
No. said, on August the 16th, 2008:
This is ugly. Years behind, disgusting.
Did you spend 5 minutes on this? Nobody will play this. ew.
gamefreak2kx said, on August the 16th, 2008:
@No.:
Its pre-production. According to that stage it's good progress,you are the one who is disgusting and unappreciative. Whatever time he spent, atleast he came up with something instead of going to someother mmorpg's site and saying 'oh it's disgusting'like you just did. Pretty much everymember of ekaiyo community will play it. If you want to criticise at least tell the person what's wrong instead of just shouting in two different image comments that it is ugly. No one's asking you to play anyway. Please learn to be more supportive and appreciative towards other people, ManTis and co don't even get paid to make this game.
@all:
By the way, I just realised that this person is probably never going to check back so I should waste my time on him...
@Mantis:
Water still looks great.
No. said, on August the 17th, 2008:
All members of the community? There is like 20 of you. Most of them have left because of how shit this looks.
Ubiquinone said, on August the 17th, 2008:
Wow so everyone left in less than a week XD because, honestly, none of the ekaiyo community besides the producers knew what the game looked like thus far until August 12th.
Saraphite said, on August the 31st, 2008:
Can somebody ban 'No.' he's a cock.
Looking good by the way guys.
Fayt said, on August the 31st, 2008:
We shouldn't argue, as in the words of Ron White, you can't fix stupid. We should feel sorry for No being retarded as he is.
Kari said, on November the 15th, 2008:
im loving this right now says to me that with each and every day we are closer and closer to being able to play i cant wait THANK YOU ManTis, Theorem, Laroon, moomoo, Keio, etix, bezet, jahajazz, and SeraphsWitness for making so many people happy, content, and anxious about this MMORPG.
P.S. for all the ignorant people who are commenting that this is shit and that noone will play go suck on a fucking egg noone asked for your opinion nor do we care what u have to say you Ignoramoses. As for the size of the Ekaiyo community a little advertisement towards what you guys plan on creating and towards your website should do the trick to gain some loyal fans and aspiring players of the upcoming and brilliantly fantastic MMORPG.
Keep at it guys and whatever you do DO NOT get discouraged by assholes who have nothing better to do than sit on their fat asses looking for people to piss off. You have way too many people counting on you and looking forward to your work.
