Hi all, i've been working on a little programming project the past week. It's a little web-based system that allows a friend of mine and me to work on (short) stories together but independantly from eachother.

During my 'contemplation hours' that i take while programming i thought that might be a nice tool for you lot to use. Especially when working in a team where its members aren't geographically close to eachother, having a way to build up such a game-creation document online would be an ideal way for everyone to be on par what's going on.

The concept is simple:
Create a project on the system, give it a title and a description and within this project you can place entries.

Entries can be placed in categories like 'storyline', puzzles, character etc. Everyone with access to the project can submit entries to add to the storyline, puzzles or whatever, or use the system as a reference when creating puzzles, artwork or animations.

At the moment the system is halfway complete in the form i had intended it to be (the joined writing project), but with a couple of modifications it can be easily adapted to suit the needs of an adventure making community.

All that is needed for it is a webserver with PHP and MySql.

Lemme know if you all would find this usefull.

It sounds like a multi-user version of  Rodekill's Wurd Problems.

Nifty.

Try googling CVS or WinCVS.
Or, indeed, use a Wiki, or even a regular forum would do it.
But yes, good idea.

Not to mention the indispensible tool SubEthaEdit.
