Yeah a sidescroller shooter game would probably be best because the animations are simple enough yet the amount of enemies and graphics could be endless. It could also get a few different artists in without making their styles clash (background art, player, enemies, bosses could have different styles and it would probably work fine).

totally wants to do a character or background(s)

for this

So far we have suggestions for:

A multi-character brawler (NG Rumble)
A scrolling brawler (Double Dragon)
A scrolling shooter (Gradius)
A platformer (Super Mario Bros)

Should I set up a voting thread? Are there other types of games we can think of that would work for this?

This might be a tough one, getting a coder able to do all that AI and pull through.

A scrolling brawler (Double Dragon)

This sounds really fun.

A scrolling shooter (Gradius)

This leaves alot of room for different ship designs, which would be cool.

A platformer (Super Mario Bros)

Overdone but with different levels and styles in levels this could be pulled off really nicely.

Definitely set up a thread, maybe some sort of racing game or shooter would be cool.

Can't do a Streetfighter type game?

Also a possibility, I suppose. That would involve a LOT of character animation though and I haven't seen a decent Street Fighter style fighting game on NG before. I think we might want to do something more simple for our first game collab, though.

Those animations could be easy depending on the character type, but I guess it is a little complex for a first go.

anyone up for some isketch?

you was right to the guy didnt know what he was doing

what about first person shooter style, each person makes an enemy that jumps out, you could have loads of entries that way, or some variant of it

Damn you, suggesting fun things while I have to go to work.

I'm game for these two.

But you should probably make a voting thread.

Yeah.
I'm prob gonna go with side-scrolling shooter tho, since it might be the easiest get sprites for.

don't know how to handle a collaborative design of the playable character ... evolvable? interchangeable weapons?

In an epic battle against all kinds of evil and some sorts of neutral who get in the way, a band of heroes waits for each other at a certain point where the heroes have the unfortunate condition of falling apart into gory chunks. Once a hero gets to this zone, they pass the bomb of righteous will to the next hero, who will bring it further to the Big Ben, the source of no evil whatsoever.

In a nutshell, I would make it a sort of relay thing.

or maybe a 2D shooter form of hot potato.

K, I made a voting thread for the game collab.

Be sure to vote if you want input on the type of game we make!

When the voting is over, with the actual collab thread be in the art forum, or the flash forum?

I just needed an excuse to be immature after a weekend of stone faced tight assed TF2 marathons.

But yeah, there should be medals. They would have to depend on what's in the art, of course. The artists should be individually and....groupily, consulted on those manners.

<-- Needs a thesaurus.

Well I guess we can have Metals as well. although I guess that depends on the theme of the game...
