I wrote a short story for fun but think that it would be cool transformed into a game! However, I have NO game creating experience and would like somone else to create it.
P.S. just credit me in the end! :)
What's your story about? Sharing details might get somebody interested. :)
It's about a cabin boy who adventures with pirates that travel to an island where they get into a hard situation while mining for jam rocks(worlds most valuable thing) out of a giants toes. It's kinda a comedy type and it's pretty short so the game version could expand on the story. I will send the story to whomever I feel is right for the game(I will look at the past games they worked on).
There is a feature in AGS called 'Make my Game'. Why don't you use that?
Where is this feature?
It was removed when AGS went to version 3
Hmph
you could.... learn ags... ;)
If you have no experience with scripting it might take you a bit longer but it's definitely not the hardest thing in the world. Especially not with the new streamlined version 3.something.
I would much rather just get somone with experience to create this game. I much rather prefer just writing the story for the game. So if anyone could help me just put a little team together that would be great!

Perhaps you should post the short story somewhere for people to read, so they can see if they like it enough to make it into a game. To be honest, it's highly unlikely that a team of people is going to gather to turn your short story into a game unless you are willing to be involved in the creation. If you don't want to learn all the technical details of AGS, you might still be able to contribute to puzzle design, story integration, and dialogue writing, for instance.
I don't think he should spoil his story ideas.
I recommend familiarazing yourself with game design. If you don't wanto to code the game that's ok but designing the game is not just writing the story. If you want to see
a professional game design document I suggest looking at Al Lowes' LSL5 game design document. (http://www.allowe.com/gamedesign/Larry5%20Design.pdf)
