Hey guys, I'm recruiting team members for a project I've been working on for a few years now. Send me an email if you're interested in joining.

Team name:
Undecided

Project name:
BattleStone

Brief description:
The game is a turn-based RPG set in a fantasy world. (Think Breath of Fire, Suikoden I or II, early Final Fantasy)

The story is revolves around a 1000 war between humans and elves, and an ancient ruin known as the BattleStone. The stone was found during the last 100 years of the war, when the current emperor was on his campaign in the heart of the Elven Empire. Since then a cease-fire has been called, and the people enjoy a temporary piece. The stone is now in hands of the emperor’s top mages, who research franticly trying to unlock the secrets behind its’ crystal walls. Ark, a young soldier in the imperial army, is about to be assigned a new mission, a mission that will change his life forever.

i dont mean to go off topic, but your avatar on your forums.. isnt that from suikoden 1? i havent played that game in foreeeeeevvvvvverrrrrrrr

Yeah it is. I love that game

ahh... thats the game that introduced me to rpgs... sadly i hadnt played any before, tho i never got far in that game

If you can find it I'd recommend giving it another shot, it's one of those games any RPG fan should play through at least once. Suikoden 2 is also great, but that one is really hard to find.

well i still have it, i just havent played it in a while, im sure i could track down suikoden 2, but ill stop hijacking your thread now

you can find it here :
some isos
and epsx runs like a charm with it , i've alreay played it some time with this emulator.

For your game , you are asking for too much people for an indie freeware , shareware.

OK the side didn't worked 10 minutes ago , or was it my firewall ?

You should do level and world concepts also
decide worlds/regions what are their particularity , what sort of people live in it , are they friendly , what are the technology ancient/magic/modern , a mix ?
what they wear, general architecture of each region building , houses,
different way of transport (riding a giant scorpion why not )
etc ... etc ....


But if simple hack and slash or MMORPG it's ok


Good luck.

looking at your site, you've spend a lot of time in the artwork. Looks nice, if you need a c-script programmer just contact me via PM. I've had about 2 years of experience with 3dgs

programmer skils:
C#
JavaScript
Java
c-script
php
(and some C++ though i can't do a whole game in c++)

just enlisted everyting for you even though it wasn't required

I an interested in your project, I like drawing that style of characters, I am a concept artist for hire, I do sometimes work for free for credits when the project is finished.
