a game i'm making that i need help with

[deltoran]

i making new game and i need help because i not very good at drawing characters and backgrounds so wondering if anyone could help me out.

the game I'm making is called unknow: the portal

its about a guy who finds him self in strange world.
after walking through some strange places he finds him self in a strange fog and in the distance he can see a robed figue, so he talks to him.

the robed figue tells him that he is in the portal, the unknow land.
(i cant remember what else i made the robed guy tell him)

in the next place he comes to find a grave yard and on a tomb stone it says his name and that he had fallen down a hole and his body had never been recovered. :o

the place he comes to is the bottom of the hole he had falllen down. his body is at the bottom and there is a strange blue light coming out of it with heaps of colours.

and thats how much i've done so far

but i was thinking that he then goes into the strange fog he again talk's to the robed guy.
he says that it seems the portal is helping him but the grim reaper wont be happy and that he might have to fight his way out.
i hoping that i might be able to make it that your guy has to fight some ghost then next he gets in a chariot and the grimreaper is following him in a black chariot with dead horses and you have to make your chariot dodge rocks and ghost and out, well ride, the grim reaper

and that he finds out more about is past and that he's is the son of someone important (maybe a greek/roman god?) and then he finds out that the robed guy is the brother of the grimreaper and he lets you out of the portal

also i would like to know is making fighting scence and the chariot race possable


any help would much appreciate

I know it might sound boring, but I myself have found it easier to finish with the story before I start recruiting and building the game. Then there won't be so many unexpected changes needed.

i think i have finshed the story.
i just need help with art and a bit of scripting. 8)

My idea? Create your own material.

I say make it simple and turn that into your style. Seen Blake White? Simple as hell, stylish as a frozen popsicle.

Focus on what you consider your strengths, and if this is storytelling, well, run for it and try to build your materials as you go along. You'll lern a lot and produce some neat stuff on the way.
