You're probably watching this thread because you're interested in game development, or because you're too curious. In any case, I am searching for some people that would like to develop a 2D RPG game with me. I do not have a name yet for the 'company' as I want that to be something personal to all of us rather than my own thing.
The Story
I have two possible stories.
Either we have the characters live a life irl (in the future) where they put some special glasses during their sleep which makes them play the game, so we have both 'realistic' gameplay and fantasy gameplay which would be nice for the art
Or we have the characters have a dream during their sleep, but if something happens during their dream (they get hurt) they get hurt in their real lives aswell, which makes them have a fight to survive.
Personally, I prefer the first option because I would love to see the art style change from realistic to more cartoony. Because of that, there isn't really a setting. I would much rather have a game with different kind of settings, because that adds a whole lot of variety and works better in my opinion. This is a project that will take some of your free time and you will not get paid. (Yet). You can take on different roles at the same time, but if someone applies for your second role you'll lose (a part of) that one.

The Characters
We have no characters yet, because we don't even know for which option of the storyline we will go. This will get updated soon.
The Team
The team currently exists of:
- Flumbooze (me): taking care of the artL
- Hibbe: taking care of the storyline and major events
You will also need Skype so we can talk to each other.
What I need:
A (or two) programmer(s):
Someone who understands different coding languages and is able to use them. The program now uses the Ruby Game Scripting-system. You will also take care of events happening in the game, together with the person that takes care of the storyline. (We'll probably all contribute to that).
A mapper: Someone who creates and designs the map. I really want our maps to shine out and that's why I need someone to do this. You'll not be alone, for as I will help you. This includes both the 'walking'-map and the 'event'-map. You will also take care of dungeons.
A soundtrack engineer: Someone who can produce some good music, preferable JROCK.
I think those are the main things that are needed. Any questions, post here!

A programmer needs to show a script WHILE IT RUNS, a mapper shows a map and a soundtrack engineer gives a track. Then we'll decide wether we think you'll fullfil our requirements or not.
