Been wondering that after playing Undertale Yellow (great game, btw)

Romhacks would fall into a different category, more like modding the main game.

    Pokemon Unbound is far more than a mod to its base game (Fire Red), it’s basically its own GBA game. Not sure I’d say the Pokemon scene is the best but I wanted to call that romhack out for how good it is

      Yeah, I excluded romhacks because the sheer amount of pokemon ones would dominate the comments, either them, Super Mario or Mega Man

      I also saw from Pokemon Unbound’s release post that they use “FireRed Upgrade” which is a considerable work on top of the original

          In your opinion what’s the most enjoyable change from the original game? I never played fire red, got my first handheld during diamond and pearl era.

            It really shares next to nothing with fire red so that’s tough to answer. It has an original map. It has all Pokémon through, I wanna say, Gen seven or eight, mega evolution, I can go on. I think my favorite part is the gyms have really unique and fun gimmicks. The starters are all pseudo-legendaries too, Which is cool
