I am currently writing the engine from scratch using PHP/MYSQL/JavaScript/Ajax/HTML. I have written 4 engines so far and learned from each one of them so I feel this one will top them all.
At first I wanted to create this game on my own but I am no artist and better game design comes from seeing the game from all angles. I will be needing an artist and some design help.
Artists - Good 2d art. Buttons, layouts, creatures, equipment, ect...
Designers - World creation, Creature creation, Equipment creation ect...
The game will be free to play but will have Gold accounts that are paid. All members of the team will get profit sharing. I can't promise what that will be and I am not going to pretend this game will make loads of money. If we sell gold accounts(which I don't think would be a problem) then you get a percentage.
I am not going to set up forums just yet because I want to wait for the success of this post.
PM if interested. As I ask for some examples of your work I would think you would ask the same of me. Upon request I can link you to 2 of my games currently working and show examples of some other engines I designed. Most of you already have already seen my various games, both 2d and 3d.
(I am still working on FS, this is a separate project)
Storyline(names need work and still writing the story, this is only a quick run through)
The future...Armageddon has come and gone. Memories of the past erased. Only the decaying remnants of a decaying world remain. The world is broken into two factions. The Magic users and the Techs. The magic users land is a close reflection to our once mid-evil era. If it wasn't for the skeletal remains of the buildings, roadways and cities of the pre-"end of the world" civilization, one would not realize they weren't stuck in 900AD England. Villages, towns, and even small cities now scatter themselves across this changed world but all are built far from any pre-apocalypse ruins. The Magic users kingdom now fears and hates all things that existed before the "end of the world". Technology has been banned and magic now rules the land. The government has made it illegal to research, use, or even talk about anything pre-"end of the world". To do so means death. Various old cities litter the landscape of this post apocalyptic world but all have been outlawed and now strange creatures rule them. These creatures are said to be descendants from the mutated survivors of the apocalypse. They are sadistic cannibals that go unchecked in the ruins of the old world cities. They occasionally attack travelers and caravans and have even been heard of attacking villages. Their numbers are great outside the protection of the government but are not worried about for they seem to stupid to make a organized attack.
The Techs are a group that have dedicated themselves to researching the truth behind the "end of the world". They aspire to bring back the technology of the old world. Years ago the leaders were executed and the followers were banned from the human cities. They now reside in their own kingdom, which is the suspected ground zero of "the end of the world". They have setup a small fortress and have a few outlying villages along the plains.
The adventure begins...
The players must choose a side. The 2 factions wage war on each other and even the neutral citizens get caught up in the middle.
