Game development project anyone?

[lempkee]

restore:
i would love to (and since we are almost neighbours it would have been even more fun)... but sadly i am too busy with our own games + i am helping out 3 other teams atm, so i am rather occupied ;(


beyond that heroesII was the best of them games ...
and that works fine in shapeshifter...yummy

[lempkee]

restore: putting a team together, a job for me..but it would be even more work than beeing the main programmer for it, keeping a team inspirated and happy is one of the hardest and maybe the most important thing there is.

i am saying that as an experienced man in the field, and sadly alot of people jumps ship when it gets hard or boring or just simply nothing happens..

anyway is it gonna be a commercial game?, someone needs to make a overview of the plans and then get the people, but i guess u need a leader first.

herosIV does look good indeed but i liked heroes 2 better in terms of playbility etc.

....yaaawn ser ut for at eg må ta meg en tur till flotmyr

[lempkee]

yeah it still looks sweet and all but ah well its a pc game... so...bleh stop please...stop

[lempkee]

guys, no i havent actually taken the job since i am too occupied but since i live very close to the guy (restore) (5km) , well i will atleast help him out with a structural base, and as time goes maybe we will hangout and then i will give more info etc.

anyway get some people in on it and i am game enough, i will call you tomorrow restore and maybe meet ya tmorrow for a blast.

anyway , the team thats needed must be aware of that it will be time consuming and realitive up and down on the inpsiration front , so basically i would say it wont be easy but it sure will be fun!.

cheers

PPS:and if there is people who want to be managers or whatever let restore know so , i will atleast try for now (if i have the time)

poundsmack:  lets make a team first then decide where to go with it.

and i honestly dont see a point screaming it will be for morphos or amigaos etc just to get people interested.

[lempkee]

poundsmack:and thats ok, but i just dont want to make this into yet another amigaos vs morphos thread.

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

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

[lempkee]

a big % of scenic lives in our town restore..


just a hint

[lempkee]

bloodline:lol

[lempkee]

guys.. it will be a 16bit game , so an amiga with gfx board is the most likely thing + most of all it wont be 68000 and i think a 020 is out of the question also...but hey lets see when there is a coder who wants to help out..

cheers

[lempkee]

everyone interested in this project (to help out) email restore or pm him so he knows what and why and who..

[lempkee]

none of theese games u mention here is the type of engine/game we will do...

its an Turnbased rpg game..

[lempkee]

slimjim: thoose guys works profssionally and until this game is out of the thinking glass..well rather not get in contact and maybe? waste their time?..

mission 1.. build up the team.

mission 2.. stabilize the team :O)O

mission 3.. make the plot/sketches etc of everything, write it all down on paper or in a txt editor etc..

then an engine is needed , and maybe after that stage, contact more people and ie you can present atleast something for the team or people u want in...



restore: naah my guess its still crashing like hell, its a pc... lets see if my amiga is useless when you come over on friday
