Pokémon Red playable in company on Twitter: the creation of a programmer
Even today, the first incarnation of the adventures of the Game Freak creatures retains a particular charm, with the age-old choice between Bulbasaur, Charmender and Squirtle able to arouse doubts and uncertainties among fans!

Well, with Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield available on Nintendo Switch for about a year now, some have decided to go back to basics, but with an unexpected twist. 3D programmer Constantin Liétard, working with the Gameloft Montréal team, has created a very peculiar creation. Directly at the bottom of this news you can in fact find a Tweet structured to update every 15 seconds, to allow users of the social network to remotely guide the actions of the protagonist of Pokémon Red.



By to do this, fans must comment on the original twitter with further Tweets, inserting a series of inputs in English within their messages. These are basic indications, such as directional or action commands: the most numerous indications will then be performed automatically within the Pokémon adventure. Will players be able to reach the Elite Four and conquer the Pokémon League? To be successful, many users have gathered on a dedicated Discord server: by monitoring Constantin Liétard's Tweet you can follow its progress.
