Just adding demo backsprites and scaled trainer portraits, and animated back and front sprites for 151 pokemon. This is a proof of concept private mod release based on the work of the https://github.com/bryanthaboi/gen1recomp project and DramaticShape@6e9b787 as they were in 1.5.1 and tweaked on 4 Aug 2026. Have fun!

  1. Reduced and refined tilt-shift blur for a clearer battlefield and overworld.
  2. Improved battle camera framing, sprite anchoring, native-resolution scaling, shadows, and world/UI placement.
  3. Balanced enemy and player HUD scale, spacing, transparency, contrast, and readability. Trainer art at 2x size.
  4. Added static and animated Battle Art modes with front/back generation selectors and reliable ROM fallbacks.
  5. Added bring-your-own-sprites support for Pokémon and trainer artwork without per-sprite Lua files.
  6. Added animated atlas decoding and player-intro animation support. Version 1.60 also adds an animated redplayer
  7. Merged upstream fixes to DramaticShapeVoxelMod, improving water and voxels. Made iOS ui upright but opaque.
  8. Changed the manifest to point to the fork repo and upped the tag to 1.60 to avoid confusing update notification.
  9. Changed trainer sprite size back to 1x for version 1.63. You can select gen3 trainer art if you want bigger trainers.
  10. Selectively picked free camera updates to 1st person and 3rd person camera modes, for the v1.65 updated builds.

Modified with chatGPT 5.6 sol light.

Adjusted blur at the top and bottom of the screen, removed camera zoom in/out of battle, and adjusted sprite anchoring.

Scaled trainer sprites and put them in world scale. Also adjusted the UI to keep a consistent color throughout the battles.

Ask me about the release here on X. Version update to 1.6.5 brings improvements to water rendering and voxel graphics.
Optionally, if you play on iOS, you can try the v1.53 build instead. It will have white backgrounds on UI elements (upright)

So @ChatGPT and me put animated gen5 backsprites and scaled #pokemon trainer sprites onto a camera zoom PR pic.twitter.com/Qkv2z5HMZN
