Pokemon C# Console Game

Project Overview

Me and one other programmer created a text-based Pokemon game to be played on the console application. Players embark on a journey where they choose a starter pokemon(Squirtle, Charmander or Bulbasaur), engage in turn-based battles against enemy pokemon and progress thorugh the story until they reach the boss battle. This project helped me practice both my object-oritented programming principles as well as collaborative programming.

Turn Based Combat System

Player and enemy pokemon take turns selecting actions(Attack/Defensive/Offensive)

Each attack considers type advantages(Fire/Water/Grass type pokemons) for more strategy

Accuracy and damage numbers are calculated with stat modifiers from offensive and defensive attacks and some randomization

Final boss battle will always be the opposite type of the pokemon you chose for added difficulty

Progression System

Player can choose which pokemon they get to use at the beginning of the game

Player gains experience and levels up after winning a battle

Player gains in game currency to spend on healing items in a shop

Battles become more challenging as you progress through the game

When level 8 reached, final battle commences
