Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Origins is a free, open source fangame based on the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series, built for desktop computers. It does not require a rom to run, and features a developer mode to create one's own fan projects.
This project is dubbed "Origins" for its ground-up approach to gameplay. Just as how the anime series Pokémon Origins returned to the franchise's roots in a way closer to the source material, so too does PMDO aim to return to PMD's roots as both a roguelike, and a Pokémon game.
