Magnesium Beta MMO Development: Blog, Sneak Peaks, Betas and more!

Magnesium Beta in an indie multiplayer game development studio. It was founded to aid the development of an early MMO (it may or may not be canceled). It was co-founded by Zeusking19 and bobbybee.

This thread will contain the Magnesium Beta Blog, sneak peaks of our games, beta testing applications, and hopefully more!

Stay tuned.

Thanks. I can't give much specifics, as there both in alpha, but there are 2 possible things we may do:

1) A very social game. It would be barely considered a "game," but more like a live social network.

2) An intense RPG, where other players are important but not necassary. This game could be beaten in "single-player" mode, but it's more fun with friends (or enemies...)!

Comments?

They both sound good! Maybe you could more combine the two, an intense game where you stand no chance without multiple people? Anyway, knowing you two this'll be good.

Hmm... from the past, I found in RPG's the advanced players would be really arrogant making hard for little players.

Thanks for the compliment at the end... out of curiosity, what have the 2 of us done?

Nothing official yet. The biggest reason we're considering it is to make room for a bigger game.

IDEAIST APPLICATION FORM
Username: zubblewu (;0)

Previous work (other Scratch projects, collabs, positions as ideaist, etc.) : I used to have a collab with a lot of ideas, but no one was active so I closed it. I've been in a lot of collabs before. Pretty much every project I still have uploaded I'm at least partially proud of, so anything really. I haven't been a real ideaist before, but I have a lot of great ideas on pretty much everything. I just generally fail to finish when I work alone  tongue .

Why I'm qualified (short, few sentences): I have a lot of ideas for pretty much anything you could use to make a game. I could do a lot if it was on scratch, although I'm an extremely slow coder with pretty much everything else. (I love that gui so much :'))

Example Idea (any, just something creative): A game based on particle/quantum physics  wink

Clearing Some Stuff Up (CSSU)

DragonFEST is not going to be cancelled, but rather postponed. For now anyway.
This new RPG is in development.
The social network is in planning.

End of CSSU
