Team Name : monkeyspork. Project Name : operation monkeyspork. Description: Flying straight into the point, i have planned and mapped out a 2d platformer game, and now need the help to create it. For a long time, ive wanted to make a game, as most do, ive put my expectations high," I will make a multiplayer rpg and great graphics", I have long pasted that stage. I now want to create a 2d platformer, with overly decent pixeled tilesets and images, with nice smooth animations, crossing a 360 degree shooting system, with adventure and puzzle, 2d platformer. I also want to add odd, but interesting, things, such as mouse interactivity, what i mean by this, is say you had a pet and it wants a stroke, you move your mosue across it and it gets stroked, like the Nintendo DS, and for puzzles, for example, pushing a switch, molding the 360 targetting system with it. Compensation: Being 16 is no excuse for me not to pay anyone, and i do plan on getting a job, but being at college and doing an art course there is time consuming, so im at home alot, which is another reason i wish to make this game. But i hope people enjoy the experience and are happy with the outcome of the game, to have their names put to it. But as i planned it have it put on a mobile, id most likeely let the developers have the money. Or if i do get a job, pay you out of kindness, or buy certain items needed. Team Structure: Currently, the team only really consists of me, the rest are mainly freelancers who are interested in the project and wish to pitch in a bit of help, and friends. But i will soon have a few teachers for my college and a friend for animations and sound/music. Talent Needed: Unsure on what programming language and methods i will use to create it as of yet. Creative Sounds Artists Concept Artists, which an interesting imaginative mind. Pixel Artists, good at using referances to create pieces. Management Board, to be able to control, and listen to others, and put in ideas and plan how it will be done and when. Target Aims: You dont get many interesting platformers anymore, but i want to create something interesting, nice platform graphics, nice gameplay, and hopefully if it goes well, and people find it interesting, re-create it to work on a mobile/cell phone. It will also work on a handheld pc from the start. Basically, my aim is to create a new and fun-packed platformer. And to enjoy the experience of making such a game. Additional Info: The image below is just a quick drawing by a friend of mine, displaying one of the main characters with all either items on. I did have the tileset image and pixelated version of the cute guy, and 1 enemy, but i seem to have lost them within the depths of my deep mysterious c drive. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v632/Tomdev/tomsthing.png Small edit, i have just found the images i earlier lost, images made by a friend of mine called neoriceisgood. The pixelised version, this is just a mock-up, we will obviously make him bigger and improve him. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v632/Tomdev/tom_sprite1.jpg Random image, parts of the tileset quality, will also be bigger and modified through the development stage, http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v632/Tomdev/scene.png Website : http://monkeyspork.be I am working on a little website for the game, http://monkeyspork.be, and i will be slowly adding more information, i wont give away too much information, but just enough to gain peoples interested.
