Game development project anyone?

[jahc]

I hate to burst your bubble guys, but theres plenty of graphics people around.. but not that many programmers. Get some decent programmers on board before you start getting too carried away.

re pou isse,

very nice, bigger than i imagined

jahc: no you are kinda wrong ,the main problem is finding gfx people and music peopled , coders is a problem indeed but not as big as finding gfx and music people who have the time and effort to go this way , to do an game is a whole diffrent thing than a demo/intro etc, belive me there is allready 6 or 7 games out there who has stopped or halting due to problems finding gfx artists and there is even more games which is halted due to they dont have musicians...

anyway i would like to see everyone interested to contact restore and dont think of starting other projects or teams atm, the team would need alot of people and people comming and going is a natural thing when it comes to garage development and basically no market to sell the game to afterwards (if its commercial) so motivation and inspiration is one of the key things..

cheers

Lempkee: No music shouldnt be a problem, i have already made some orchestral scetches, i have a little studio at home. and i got the time, since i work 12 days, and have a week off

methuselas are working on some gfx scetches of the monsters and characters, hope he is the man for the team, we need 1 guy for making animations aswell, lightwave or similar...

Also need someone with a brilliant mind to write the storyline, the game is set in the middle ages.

Guess the game needs a name, so does the team.  :-)

Age of Omega? (Joking)

The game seems very similar to Age of Empires on the Pee Cee.  Would I be right? I take it you are looking for a simple name to describe the product not something that is made up.  The Settlers descibed this genre in quite a genuine way - is this what you are looking to do?

The team - Well there is TeamOrg? Restore is a good name - restoring a system by producing quality software for it.

Vision, Qualitex, Firestone, RenderBender, RestoreDev, AmiAngels, EuroThrash, Qualifest. Just some idea's.

Roughly - what is the games premise.  What year is it - is it peace time - is it war etc etc.  What factions live  across the lands?

[restore2003]

The game is similar to Heroes III and IV, not Age of empires  :-)  its not a realtime strategy game, its turn based

The game is based in the dark middle ages, there should be 3 or 4 races, like in heroes, life(angels, knights, crusaders, pikemen, etc) udead(skeletons, vampires, dark night, lich, witch, etc) nature(elves, dwarfs, unicorns, wolves, etc) Death(devils, manticore, medusa, imp, etc) and Order(mage, titan, naga, genie etc)

The storyline should be set at wartime

restore:get as many people as possible, i mean it wont be very fun for 1 gfx guy to do all..., get as many as possible and let them discuss some sort of an style/type , its not that hard to merge such but what is hard is to make people work alone..  just a tip

as for lw, sure thats an option but i think the coder will be the one to set that in stone or? (in game animation (char/env etc) ..

[lempkee]

there is also an option to go widely cliche with it (the name of the game)..

Dawn Of Fate
TRolls and Zealots
YANAMCOHE (Yet ANother AMiga Clone Of HeroEs)  
hmmm...i am tired...ZZZZ

[restore2003]

3 graphic artists would be the best, lightwave was just an example, for me they can make it in disney animation studio for that matter, the important thing is that the finishing product is something to be proud of  :-)

[restore2003]

Are there any free Scenic graphics people?

[bloodline]

Trolls and Zealots

Gets my vote!!

[restore2003]

[lempkee]
