Scratch

I probably could help with level art (but not character art, because for some reason I completely suck at drawing characters). Here's an example of my work:



It needs a lot of work (more detail in the BG, some trenches/highlights in the checkerboard soil, etc.), but I just whipped this up in maybe 25 minutes so =P. Hope this is good enough; if it isn't I can make it better with the improvements above and re-post it.

I could also help a bit with programming, but odds are you wouldn't need that =P

Well  I need someone to draw characters too :S

I just want 1 person to help me just to let people know.

I can draw really, REALLY small people pretty well. Kinda pokemon emerald style, that sorta size, too.

This is honestly not my best work, I just whipped it up to show you something. But this is what i madein about 5 or so minutes:



Oh, and it was enlarged, I usually make my stuff way too small...

Do you want them in the same style (cartoony, hand-drawn looking)?

Well they just have to look good. Like the different between sprites in scratch and most flashes is quite obvious. I want the sprites to look like they belong in a quality piece of work.

Oh, okay. Do you think the stuff I posted earlier would be sufficient quality?

EDIT: also, I forgot something. I don't know how to work with vector art; is that okay? (Flash uses only vectors IIRC, right?)

Ah well, I can't draw that good on a computer.

Are you thinking of a game with real people, or sort of fake popel - I mean, do you want to make a game more like Naruto or Pokemon?  I can make some made up characters, but I'm not good with real people drawing.  I would like to help you if I can.

I can help you, but I won't be available for several days as I am flying to America and have to pack my bags and all.
I draw in Paint.NET and Macromedia Flash MX, just started Corel Painter X.
I cannot give an example of artwork as I can draw in --or imitate-- several styles and I don't exactly know what kind of style you need; if you give me an example of what you want the game to be about and what you want it to look like I will be able to draw something suitable (just remember, I won't be available for several days). I animate pretty well (here's an old example of a running cycle animation), but it can take quite a long time for me to complete an animation (7-13 hours, depends on difficulty), so if you don't mind waiting, I can do it.

Notify me if you are willing to team up with me.

GO FOR MYREDNEPTUNE she is probably the best sprite artist on the site.

I can use scratch and flash. I can't make good flash games yet. (I need to play around with the program somemore first) but I can make good cutscenes in flash.

Also, I am not very good at backgrounds; only characters and objects.

Maybe I could do backgrounds and MyRedNeptune could do characters/objects? I tried to animate a run cycle today, but it was a failure. As far as characters/objects go, I could do some simple static objects or edit some stuff, but not more than that. I know you only want one person to help you, but not many people are good at both characters AND backgrounds.

Also, I might be able to help with the music production. If you give me a MIDI, I can render it as an MP3, and make it sound much better too. Example: This MIDI was rendered by me to this MP3.

Alright then, as long as there is someone to make the character sprites.

But before I start anything I have to think up the concept for the game.
I was thinking that I could program a game similar to river city ransom.

play it at --> http://www.everyvideogame.com/arcade.php?mode=play&g=724

Basically its a scrolling beat em up game where you can beat up thugs collect money and buy stuff.

Any other ideas are welcome
