Project: Wind-warp(dev. Team)

[WindWarp]

Hello Newgrounds,

First off I have to say(this being my first real post here and what not) that, I have enjoyed and been very entertained by the different products coming out of Newgrounds over the years.

Now, onto the reason I'm here. As I had just mentioned, I'm a big fan of Newgrounds, and to that extent, I find myself putting together, a Development team, and I'm here to see if anyone here at Newgrounds was interested in joining up. Currently we have a couple artists flushing out Character Concepts, and Level designs for our planned project.

If your still reading, I'm sure you'd like to know some specs for this planned project, so here you go:

-Resolution for the finished product will be 1280x720(we are pushing for a very HD game)
-Side Scrolling Adventure game.
-Settings include Rural town to large cities
-We are looking to have the first 4 intro levels finished by Mid December
-What we have:
-Concept Artist
-Level design Artist
-SFX Artist
(Did some recruiting at a local Art Institute!)
-What we need:
-Flash Coders(movement,enemy AI, UI,etc)
-Flash Animators
-A composer

We are looking for people serious in getting this project completed. And for that, we ask that anyone interested in the finer details send us a Private Message, at which time we will fill you in on further details of the Project.

Thanks,
KJ Smith

I could help with composing (still haven't submitted my best songs) and some of the script (depends what the game consists of and how complicated the AI will be).
I may be able to help you with Animating or Flash Graphics.

I'm not sure how much time I'll be able to spend on it though.

[WindWarp]

Well all help is appreciated and credit will be given to all involved. Our current plan is to get the Intro levels finished, by around mid December, then after that, spend a bit more time flushing out the rest of the game.

But if your interested in contributing, we'd be happy to welcome you on board, just toss me a PM and I can get you the rest of the details on the project.

Sorry the maximum width of the portal is 932 and max hieght not sure but i think its around 500

That only matters if you want to host it her though , which you should for the publicity

They could always have it go full screen instead.

[ThePeasant]

It's easy enough to have a sample size in the portal with a 'full screen' button. Easy enough to code too if anyone were to bother.

[WindWarp]

Thanks for the input folks! Yeah we are planning on having a more NG friendly version, but we also want to push some very detailed imagery with the finished product.

I can work as your animator if you want. Depends on if you want the animator to do the art or not. My art is very cartoony, so it might not be what you're looking for, but if someone else was to the graphics and I was to animate them I could definitely help. Or if you're looking for simple character graphics I could do those, too.

[hdxmike]

I would offer my services but i already have a HUGE project planned and im working on an animation right now.

But i am going to have an online and download version that will be around 40-50 mb, you will probably need to beg tom to fit all of your game on NG ! im having slighly lower quality graphics 932 x 500 and even when i exported the graphics as PNGs and reimported them the size is still quite big, but i have a lot of vectors so yeah :)

So use bitmaps or your size and performance will be lackluster.

Hope i helped !

[hesselbom]

Maybe you could post some concept art or something similar for the game to spark some interest? Considering you already have people doing art that shouldn't be a problem.

[WindWarp]

Yeah it does help, we will do what we can to make our NG version NG friendly ^-^ any advice is welcome, so thanks!

[WindWarp]

Sorry for the silence on this project folks! We have snagged a hand or two to help out, but we are still looking for a little help in the Animation/Audio department. As per request(again sorry for the delay) here are some immages. Both Concept for Character and level design.

And a look at a small cut away of a level design concept.

Im surprised no one has asked yet. Is there any type of pay?

Heh as much as We wish, this is more of a portfolio/resume filler for anyone interested in workin on it. Now if anyone who works on this lil project lives in the Seattle, WA area myself and one of hte other team members, would have no problem, having a 'work' session or what not and feed folks XD ^-^

[Yonika]

Oh I see. So will there be any revenue at all? Sponsorships? Ads?

At this time its more of a 'test the waters' kinda thing. using NG as a sorta beta test. if things go well, we would like to produce the entire game. Hence the search for a Dev team more so then just a colab, but until we can get a solid team, we don't know what we will be doing.

[UknownXL]

Well I wish you and your team the best of luck.

Hey there,

Could you be a little more specific as to what you want coding wise?

like style of game etc..

Maybe I didn't see it or something as I just skimmed through it, but that'll help coders to see what is expected.

As of now it is a side scrolling adventure game. Fairly Basic as far as whats required with what we have planed so far. Left right, jump, character is on roller blades, uses her Bag as a weapon.

We actually have two coders signed up here from NG, as I mentioned in my post earlier today, we are mainly looking for some one to Animate characters and objects, and some assistance in the Audio department.

[ActionSick]

Add me on MSN and we can talk more in depth...
I am a coder and an animator so I can help out in many areas..
