I'm wondering, does anyone want to join me in a project to make a game? This will be an application and not a flash. Basically what I'm thinking of is a 2d scroller type of game, something that wouldn't be too ridiculously hard. Any takers?

Ok, primarily it'd be in C++. If additional speed is needed, then assembler would be used on a limited amount of critical functions. As well as that, most likely I'd either use DirectX or use the limited Windows GDI. Since it is going to be in 2d, the 3dimensional aspect of DirectX will not be needed. Since DirectX 8 they withdrew DirectDraw, it might MIGHT be simpler to use the Windows GDI for a simple 2d game.

As for the actual game itself, it's all up in the air. It doesn't matter what type of game it is as long as I can actually get it working.
