Well, i can see why you posted in misc.
You have officially got your first guy if you want.
I'll be... a writer? Is that OK. I'm really happy to tackle any role, except sprite design.
Oh, I'll put ya in my sig. Should be up in a minute.
Edit: It's up now. Is that ok?

ax4: I already have the main idea for the plot, but I could use help with writing what they say.
Stickman704: I need all the advertising I can get!
All: Programmers are welcome. I think I'll need help programming.

Ok. I'm on the list. *bookmarks this*
So I write the story... it seems you already have done this though.
Can you describe the differnce between "Plot guys" and "writers". Do the writers do the storyline and the plot guys start it off.... I don't know.
Edit: About the story:
Key:
? - possibility
So in my mind, it's a bit furturistic, maybe a madeup robot revolution in the near future, 2020 maybe? The robots use animals though to control it, but they are under the spell of the U.S.M.C - The United States Mechanics Cooperation?, so the robots work as sort of slaves.
Africa has now grown. Thanks to the support of charities, the villages of Africa become mighty. A new technolegy is developed that allows to control the weather and make the crops grow. Slowly, but steadily, Africa becomes united as a world power, up with Europe and America - The African Federation.
In 2025, the African Federation recreate the robots the U.S.M.C made, but without the use of animals. Many people supported this and the U.S.M.C's robots were destroyed and the animals set free....but not all of them. Epilsion, the third ever created robot has now got used to the spell that the U.S.M.C and is completly loyal. He is the leader of the U.S.M.C robots. The U.S.M.C create more robots secretly, intended for world domination.
In 2031, the U.S.M.C expand to space. They hold the largest, advanced control over space. One is a cover - the Robot's base. In 1 year it would all start.
2032 - the Robot war. The U.S.M.C wrecks havoc on the world, but Europe and The African Federation retaliate, trying to stop the U.S.M.C, The African realeases robot, Panther team, the most elite fighting force that are a match even for the U.S.M.C's space technology. The U.S.M.C's robots have a thirst for power, they overthrow the whole of the U.S.M.C and replace it with Robots! Epilsion is the leader.
?
lol
I'm not sure. It was all from improvisations. This also seems more like a plot, but if that's the case, I'll be a plot guy too.
Also, the story seems a bit too serious. Maybe I need to create a more light, fun story.

@Stickman: The difference of Plot Guys and Writers is that Plot Guys come up with the plot, Writers write what the characters say.
My main plot idea was this:
"In the land of Flannenland, Pr. Miguel Fermeon discovered spirits who live inside crystals. He creates robot bodies for five of them: Kyle, David, Auora, Sam, and Dan. David is possessed by Omega, a dark spirit who can possess other spirits. David became Epilsion, who immideatly started to seize control of the world.
The rest of the robots try to eliminate the rest of the bases before tackling the space station Epilsion rules from."

Simpler than mine. I like it.
Ok so it's an amimation is it? Since the writers sort of make up the script.

What do you mean by animation?

This may seem like a bump, but what kind of save system should we use? A sprite with a list that you import and export, or a save code? I have the list system ready, and I think it would take up less space. It would also allow inventory.
I added the coding demo to the gallery.

Hey, Max Man! I can volunteer to write, be a plot or idea guy, try to find some music that will work, or beta test. Do you need any help coming up with designs for what the characters will look like? Cause I have some experience with costume design and stuff.
I'll see what I can find as far as music goes! The only thing we have to be aware of, though, is that music is copyrighted, so we'll have to be careful that what we use is either original or copyright-free. Even classical music can be copyrighted, because the people who did the performance can copyright their performance of it. It's kinda complicated, I know, but I can help out with that.

Ooooh, a costume designer. You're in. If you could do some spriting, too, that would be great. Thanks for signing up. This thread shall not die yet!
Offline
Ok, you're in!
Anyone have any ideas for where the robots go? What they do? Who they fight?

I'll be the composer, but I need to know the general mood of all the situations and stuff before I do my thing.
Offline
Okay! Thanks! We really needed a composer.
The mood changes a bit. Sometimes it's sad, sometimes it's happy, and sometimes it's epic.
Picking a song off the list to make would be a good strategy.

I'm okay with whatever you can do, nonster. What are you good at?

Ooh! I'd like to be a beta tester.

I'd be glad if someone could help with the programming. Just remix one of the Coding Demos, and add it to the gallery. Make sure to change the number in the title, and remix the current demo!

What should i work on adding to the next test project?

Cleaning up the battle system a bit is all I can think of. And yes, it's supposed to look like that.
