‘Pokemon Uranium’ Community Defies Nintendo, Development And Growth Continues

The developers behind the fan-made game “Pokemon Uranium” were forced to remove the game from the official site thanks to the lawyers sent by Nintendo. However, the community supporting the game is alive and well, and are doing everything they can to defy the will of the corporate giant. In response to the continued fervor, the developers are intent on providing updates and patches, which will then give players more access to the game.

One of the developers of the fan-made game is a woman with the user name Involuntary Twitch, 22, Gamerant reports. According to her, she had been working on “Uranium” since she was 13 years old. With this being something of a baby for her and her team, Twitch states that they are planning on releasing free updates that will fix some issues that afflict the current version of the game, patching bugs as well as adding new features.

“We’re listening to feedback, and trying to improve the game even more,” she said. “In the future, I hope to add on additional content to the game in the form of ‘Sidequests’ that will allow players to capture the 8 missing Pokémon in the Tandor Dex, and more.”

Right now, players of the game are unable to get all of the “Nuclear-Type” Pokemon in the game, which are a new tier of the critters of upgraded rarity. The next update that the developers will release for the game will likely involve the addition of side-quests that will then allow players to finally capture all eight of the Pokemon-type that exist in the game.

As Kotaku reports, players of the game are trying to spread it as far as possible with any means at their disposal. Some are posting the files on torrent sites while others are sharing the game from person to person. Clearly, Nintendo’s disapproval of the game has not dampened the enthusiasm for it. In fact, it might have actually encouraged the proliferation of “Uranium.”
