After Hours at Raichu's [Non-Profit Fan game]

some bad news.


Hello ladies and gentlemen, this is paul.

You're probably wondering already by the title of this article, something bad has happened. Have further updates for AHaR been cancelled? No. Has a DMCA been filed against the game? No... and honestly I really hope it doesn't happen, either.

It's none of those reasons. I'm sorry to say, Yesterday my mum, older sister and nephew tested positive for COVID-19, and last night it seems like I caught it myself - I did a test a few hours ago and it seems like I have also tested positive. I am really, really worried as I don't know if I'll recover fully or not. I currently feel dizzy, have a headache (which is getting better) and a sore throat as I type this, but I've been given some medicine and I've been drinking some water to help myself feel a little better.

I'll have to hold off further development/updates for AHaR until I manage to recover, and when I do, I'll probably start the AHaR community on here since I know some of you have been wondering why I haven't made one yet. So remember ladies and gentlemen, wash your hands, drink water, take vitamins, anything to help you get rid of the virus if you have it yourself. Just be safe out there because I don't know if I'll ever make it through.

Thank you all for the support on the game over the past year, though. It's really been appreciated and although I may not be happy with some aspects of the game now, it's been a fun ride. That's all I'd like to say, take care... - paul

What if Marble zone was in the 8-bit Sonic 1...?

Some mockup thing I made recently, might post the tileset I made to deviantart sometime. Despite similarities these aren't the exact ones used in the sonic 1 SMS remake fan game if you are wondering

revamped party area camera is finally done. here's what it looks like in-game!

all that's left is the arcade camera and I'll be done, then I can move on to adding the final adjustments to version 1.5

alright. time to get myself into gear and finish version 1.5; hopefully before the end of the year. and i mean it!

here's a new raichu image for the game's main menu to replace the old one I made waaayyy back at the start of development (in the 2nd image)

Happy New Year, POPGOES fans!

Here's a summary of some of the best POPGOES things that happened in 2025. What were your favourites?

revamped party area is almost done - here I used GIMP to place the pokémon images on the walls using the program's unified transform tool. I'm going to draw some new images next to where natu and hoothoot are, just to fill in the empty spaces

Into the Water

time to get to revamping the final camera for v1.5, which is the arcade.

more to come in the new year

also i'm aware AHaR has turned 4 years old but i didn't bother announcing it because it would be pointless

now time to revamp the party area camera

if you're wondering how I do this, I model the room in roblox studio, take a screenshot once finalised and then trace over the image. not the most preferable method but I do it because I am very bad at perspectives

Nostalgia-Bait Springtrap

new versions of the main characters' images i did a while ago. I may upload these to deviantart but they will appear in the extras menu of v1.5!

details on their differences in article
