I Made Pokemon Red/Blue but it's 3D

I turned the original Pokemon Red/Blue into a 3D game. It's one of my favorite childhood games so I recreated Pallet Town, Professor Oak's Lab, and the first battle against your rival in 3D.

I made this game with the Unity game engine and Blender for some of the 3D models. I also used Quicktime Player, Audacity, Premiere Pro, After Effects, and Photoshop to record and edit this video.

Low poly would def be easier though! If you get good with Blender, you can work pretty fast tbh but I'm not good enough to really know how fast lol.
