Collab Project

Post by Raptor »

I was never really good at making ZZT games. I'm a pretty good writer, and an okay programmer, I guess, but an artist I ain't; I just barely managed to make the graphics for Secret of Kelmar while in my "prime", and I've only gotten rustier since then.

Basically, I'm asking for help. I have a vision for a really awesome ZZT game. But if I make it all by myself, well, it'll probably look like shit. So, I'd like someone to collaborate with me as an artist (and assistant writer/programmer) on this project.

You're probably wondering what the project is. Well, here's the abridged version: A long time ago, I made a "movie" which can be found in AKMag #5; it was about a "killer bird" (yeah, I dunno either) who could shapeshift into anything. Truth be told it was a pretty crappy movie, but even then I realized it could make a really good game; just imagine all the shapeshifting-based puzzles you could come up with.

The concept still seems pretty promising to me, so I figured I'd post here and see if anyone would be interested in helping me make it a reality.

...I think I'll change the bit about the protagonist being a bird, though. Seriously, young-me. WTF.

And yeah, I know this is pretty tl;dr. Whatever. Deal with it.

Hey Raptor,

I'll help you with your graphics.

I have no idea what tl;dr means.

Anyway, send me some boards and I'll try to make them look good.
My waste is my weapon.

Lol. Well, thanks to you folks who have offered help. I'm still in the beginning stages of creating this game. I'll keep you posted on my progress (or lack thereof).
