Topic: Anyone up to making a game?

@KaiserGX: it's not my fault i've been working most of the morning and only just now had the chance to see what was written about me. either way, thanks a lot. :/

Nah, I just meant the thread might be locked if it was otherwise dead besides us forcing it back to the top of the page sometimes without much good reason for doing so, that's been the policy on other forums I've been on before. But yeah, haha, that thing went a bit haywire all-round, much confusion abound. We've got proper discussion going on here again, so I guess all's cool xD

@Kiaser: The graphics for PPC were drawn in Flash, I believe, but they don't use a Flash format for putting into the game. iirc, they're just normal image formats. Flash isn't necessary for putting graphics in the game, is what I'm getting at

@Raylax: as long as everything's on-track, then :3

Do you still need music? I have some from Mix superstar of all types .

Basically as long as the tiles stay a set size most things should be manageable to code. For image format I used PNGs, so really any 'tool' to create images is fine as long as the end result is static images.

@mizont: Cool, let's hear what you've got. Can post it here, or join up to the forums and post it in the music thread.

Sorry DB, just sad cause you wont merry me.

Anyhow just when I got all hyped, I try doing the Squirrel and comes out like FUUUUU

I might need some help, can someone give me stick figure animations I can trace over.

Edit: I'm looking for a spriter.

No promises, but I'd be willing to help with static things like tile sets.

@Kaiser How are you drawing these things so quickly? 50 sec a pop for some? You must be super "special"

I may be able to draw fast but I can never rank up to the good artists.

What is it with you arty types not being able to admit you're properly good? I know someone else just like that :3

_{And they're probably gonna punch me now **hides**}

Anyway, stick at it. First sprite attempt might not be so good but it'll get better. We've seen what you're capable of already

You've seen what I am capable of, but you haven't seen my attempts to animate. I am still trying, but I am also trying to find a spriter.I'd feel better if we have someone who is actually good at animation. I'm good at still frozen lands.

Run animation GO!

You should have seen it when I started. OH LAWD. (And no, I refuse to post the original in a public place.)

You pulling my Chain-Chomp?

Nah he made that. That's awesome btw dude

We'll be onto brainstorming shortly. We already kinda started with the story, but now all ideas are open. Until we start this section on the forums officially, let's get some ideas rolling right here. Literally anything - enemies, collectibles, world themes, whatever. But keep it 'light' - we have our story structure and game scope over on the forum, follow them - don't suggest massive game-overhauling gimmicks. If it'd represent more than a miniboss would, you're brainstorming too big (asides the world themes, but if you're suggesting those don't put too much detail into your ideas)

Oh yeah, and if you're not already on the project, now's a great time to get involved.

Actually, I was thinking of something along the lines of spring boots. When used in conjunction with the wings, you can glide even farther!

Kaiser and Yai, where the heck are you? There's threads on the staff board that need answering. This project's at risk of stalling again if you folks don't hurry up.

I was beginning to wonder what the holdup was.

I am confused i read the first page and then skipped to the last. Someone explain what is going on.

Yeah, this thread is a complete mess. What information there is, spans the myriad pages. Due to this thread's unwieldy size, we are now using a more-less dedicated forum. Most of what has been discussed here has been condensed into the Planning Phase and Story Development threads, but feel free to check out the rest!
