Forum Farms

[hallsofvallhalla]

I have decided to go with this project. I really like the idea and here is the basic jist of it

Forum Farms is a Browser based game that integrates PHPBB forum accounts for a fun competitive farming game. This game will have a easy installment to any existing forums but will play completely outside the forums. Players will log in and register through your forums but will go to a separate page for actually playing the game.

Game play will consist of players buying land, growing crops, raising animals, and many other farm related duties. Players can either help one another or even rival one another. Stats can be displayed right on forums in the player profile.

Contests can be held, like Forum Fair, best crops, or Forum Show, best animals, and even have Festivals where players can sell their crops, seeds, and other things.

There will be many more features added during the development.

When completed it will be sold for a very small fee for other forum owners to buy and host the game. It will also have a donation integration if Forum owners want to have it accept donations for small upgrades. It will be a great way for communities to raise money. Profits from sales and donations will be shared with team members plus a copy of the game.

I currently need 2d artists more than anything else but also need designers. I am coding it all but I would consider another coder if they can bring something to the table.

More info coming soon

Interesting concept. Looking forward to hearing more. As for another coder, I may be able to bring a GUI into it. Once I finish my current project I will post a screen cast of my now web gui interface.

sounds good. Yeah you don't see many phpbb add ons that are full games. Or rather games that use your existing phpbb forums

If you still need help with 2d art, give me a prod.
I have done quite alot of farming type pixel art and drawings as my game is based on horses!
