Adventure Game Studio

This thread is out of date now :(

For 2009 through 2011 recruitment calls, see: http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=36479.0

I am so unoriginal at these things that it scares me. Anything I make resembles the LCARS interface from Star Trek. If you don't know what that looks like, go here: www.ccdump.org

What I need is someone to design a futuristic computer graphical user interface, DIFFERENT than Star Trek's LCARS interface. Something original, something groovy. Not only will you get full credit in my game (By the Sword), you will also have your name mentioned somehow in the game, like a little easter egg or something. I will do this for you, if I like what I see.

Damn I wish I could make my own thread to recruit someone. I would get more attention that way. :P

Just PM me your work and I'll pick the best one to be part of...."the team".

EDIT

Carp! I complete forgot what the test submission should look like! Um, make a computer interface that will control the hangar bay; i.e., it must have functions to activate the atmospheric forcefield, open the doors, unlock the shuttlepod, etc., whatever else you think might be useful on such an interface. You can take creative license and add in seemingly useless buttons and displays and features and whatnot. Maybe even some kind of small display that says "Currently logged in: so and so". Things like that.

Oh, and since BTS is going to be in 640x400 res, make it 620x380 or something (10 pixels each edge) so it is not its own room, but merely an AGS GUI above the room.

Thanks!

I want to have this kick-buttock cutscene in Awakening of the Sphinx, where (watch out spoilers, so don't read it if you're not going to help!)

Spoiler

The Sphinx wakes up, stands up and starts to stomp on people who are running away in terror

[close]

The easiest way to do this is probably with a 3d render. I have found a Poser Sphinx model to get things started. However, I have no 3d experience whatsoever and the only 3d tools I have are the ones you can get legally for free (ie Maya PLE & Alice). So, if someone wants to help produce the best cutscene ever then great! If someone can do the animation without 3d then even better! If we can do some cool Matrix-like camera rotations too then so much the better.

Credit wil be given of course, and we can see if you want to put some kind of Easter Egg in the game somewhere: your name in heiroglyphics perhaps, or a statue of you somewhere in a temple?

Please PM me!

I'm looking for a voice actor for some lines in the talkie version of Apprentice 1.

The role is the highwaywoman, and for those of you that haven't played the game, she's a gruff, mean personality (like a bridge troll).

I would like to find a MALE voice actor for her part, because I'm having trouble finding a female with a gruff voice. So if you're a guy with a deep voice and have access to a microphone, please record the following line and send it as an attachment (mp3 or wav, please) to ifs104@psu.edu.

HIGHWAYWOMAN: I'm a businesswoman. I collect revenue from pedestrians, who pay me not to get angry.

For more info on the game, please visit http://herculeaneffort.adventuredevelopers.com/app1.html (http://herculeaneffort.adventuredevelopers.com/app1.html)

Thanks, guys!

I am a male and with a deep voice owning a microphone. I'm terrible at voice acting though. At least I think I am.   ;)

Just downloaded your Apprentice 1. Am going to take a peak at it now.

Cheers!

I am a pretty competent 2D artist looking to partner with a capable programmer in a hobby-game-studio situation. I have limited programming experience, myself, and am only looking for someone who is capable of programming 2D games (as that is my forte in art, as well). Will purchase any necessary software/engines to do so.

Just send an email to ray@penguinx.org or PM me here at the forum if you are at all interested!

I need help ripping some Sierra characters from old games (nothing predating King's Quest 5). I would like to be able to extract characters from King's Quest 5 and 6 in particular. Anyone who knows how to do this, please PM me. I would be indebted to you.

Thanks.

I have started to work on ISN 2. Like in part one, I'll first release the introduction as a small non-playable demo.
What I need is someone to compose a short (around two minutes or something) music theme for the title screen. The titles will roll over a picture of a refrigerator, mainly because the game's full title is ISN 2: Curse Of The Refrigerator In The Apartment Of Terror. Not surprisingly, the game will follow Swedegard Norwayson as he tries to solve the case of a haunted refrigerator. I don't have any special requests for the theme, but it is recommended that there is something "mysterious" to it (you know, like The X-Files theme or something). Also, if there are any more sequels, this theme will be used in them as the official ISN franchise theme, so anyone who does the job will provide great fame, fortune & glory for him/herself.
If you want to help, send me a private message with your e-mail address, so that I can send you a link with the portion of the intro I made so far (it's a very early and unpolished version, but it will help you to get into the game's atmosphere and stuff).

I no longer need help...

The Quest for Infamy team is looking for a background artist/dialog picture artist, with talent creating Sierra style backgrounds. Much work on this game has already been done, and the team (Especially me, who has spent many, MANY hours working on sprites) assure that the game is serious and will be completed.

If interested, email me at btails*NOSPAM*@shaw.ca (remove *NOSPAM*) to gain access to the ezBoard the team uses to communicate. Here you can peruse the info, including sprites, story outlines, and even a tech demo. Then you can make your decision whether or not to join the team.

<Hopes this works>

Hmph, I have only two voice actors for Goldlagoon and I need more! I contacted some but only one of them answered. So here goes...

I know there's many good voice actors here on the forums. So my game Goldlagoon ( http://www.agsforums.com/yabb/index.php?board=8;action=display;threadid=3146 ) needs you! It will take a while until the game is finished, but I want to get voice actors early so that they can start recording when ever I need some lines.

At the moment I may have an actor for main character, but it's not sure yet. At the moment I would need:
- Old man (about 60 years old, pretty deep voice, not really big part)
- Another old man (about 60 years old too, not so deep voice, his part is pretty big)
- Augustus Goldhandle (check Goldlagoon-topic, about 40 years old, not very big part in game)
- Man on the ship (pretty usual voice for about 20-30 years old man, but this part needs shouting :P (I actually contacted m0ds about this one but he never answered), not a big part in game)

At the moment I would need those. They shouldn't be cartoony, I want them to be as realistic as possible. If you're interested, PM and I will give some lines and more information about character. PM is probably better than email, because my email has been acting weird lately...

Thanks :)

I need someone to create a logo for me. It would be at the beginning of the games I am making. I would give you credits in all the games I make, and I would be sure to pay you if um....I ever made money from the game ;)
Anyway, the logo I need is of an stylized Ox. I have searched the net, and found that an ox is just like any other bovine creatures. It is male, so I want horns, and a ring in the nose if pssoble. I would like it from the shoulders up. Think of the logo of chicago bulls, but with the ox looking kooky instead of angry. Also it should be in only 2 or 3 colours. Ok, no after all my "shoulds" and "musts", I say, PLEEAAAASE HELP.

I already posted this request before in my own game thread, but I'll ask here again. :) It's for Buccaneer 2. More info on the game can be found here: http://www.unosar.com/buc2/ (http://www.unosar.com/buc2/)

I'm looking for:

Someone who is willing to make several (approx. 8) full-sized 320x200 screens. They are to tell a dream sequence with which the game begins (something like Gabriel Knight 1). During the game, this dream will deepen and the full horror of Richard's past will then be brought to life. So it will be cutscene material.

If you have further questions or wish to offer your services (showing a sample of what you have done in the past helps), please pm me.

Thanks!

I am in need of a REALLY talented character animator to draw the main character of my game.  I'm not going to reveal much here, but if you're interested in the job, just send me a private message.

I'll fill you in from there and provide the character's description and my e-mail.

Here is some basic info:

The animation will need to be very smooth and realistic.  The character should be about 30 pixels wide and 88 pixels tall.  Whoever I hire will have his/her name in the game's credits of course.

I need an artist for my program.  :( I can't draw and nobody will draw for me. Do you know anybody I could get to do it online?

...

This is what I need for my game, Magican - A wizards taleâ,,¢:
 *Voice actors (especially for the main character).
 *Spriter who can make cel-shade style sprites and flash-cutscene maker.
 *Synth-music composer that can compose rox0rs music. (if I don't find any composer, I'll have to go with the MI2-MP3 music from ScummBar.com...)

That's all I need for now.

EDIT: Got the needed volunteers-- thanks!

Elaine, what help are you looking for for your game?

And if anyone has filled positions, please can you edit your thread with "filled" or something? That way I can prune the thread.

:)

Hi all,

I'm doing another Dada game.

I'm going to utilise some of the suggestions made by other users to make the game a little more "different" than standard adventures.

However, for this game, I need a favour.

I'm terrible with graphics and I would like as many people as possible to submit artwork to me.

I'm looking for stuff that looks painted (no toony designs please), but I'll be composing scenes out of the images people supply -- I think this aids in avoiding copyright problems with google's image search.

All you need to do to help is PM me a picture that relates to one of the following words:

* Heaven
* Angel
* God
* Sex
* Humanity
* Apocalypse
* Wasteland
* Earth
* Soul
* Sanity
* Love
* Vagina
* Womb

Please send me via PM your best artwork based on one of these words.

Thank you.

Please note: I'm not looking for actual pictures of these things (not looking for pictures of God or vaginas), but rather just artwork of something inspired by one of these words.

Vagina is on that list, along with love and womb. However, I see nothing relating to the male genitalia. Perhaps you have these images already? Or is this game strictly doughnut bumping to save humanity? :)

No -- I don't have these pictures already.

No -- It's not "doughnut bumping" to save the world.

I have a "story" in my mind and I pulled the key terms from that and posted them here.

I'm not looking for a critical analysis -- provide one when I finish the goddamn game.

If you want to contribute graphics, PM me -- If not, then why are you replying?

P.S. The reason I don't have "male genitalia" listed is because I don't picture anything relating to male genitalis in my story -- If I did, I would have asked for it now, wouldn't I?

could someone give me a link to a good freeware painting program where i can make good backgrounds with?

:-\ well, I dont realy know any freeware, but if you are realy serious about graphics, i suggest you start saving up for photoshop. It costs a bum, but its well worth it. Also Paint Shop Pro is a lot cheaper I think, but not as good from what I hear.

I am looking for something to do out of bordem.  Anyone need any graphics for their game?  (No I am not offering to do ALL your game graphics, maybe just a background or a character or objects or something.)  

Edit:  I started work on a project.

I have this program that I can make a sprite out of but it is more for a 640x480 type game and well i will be doing  400 +- x 200  so I need the sprites smaller .
I don't know how to do it with out them looking like crap .
Here is still of walking at the size . i can get it a little smaller if needed .

I don't have any money but can give you lots of thanks ..

Email Me at mon_c@yahoo.com

Those are very beautiful 3d graphics.  The problem is that it often doesn't make sense to a game developer to only have someone do 1 or 2 graphics for a game.  If you have the time, you might want to consider committing to a project that seems promising.

Hey all, I just wanted to know if anyone can give me any tips on drawing a street scene to match the style of this background: Here (http://www.agsforums.com/yabb/index.php?board=8;action=display;threadid=12640)

I have a base already, just need tips on colouring styles, etc.

Ps: DGMacphee, please bring back your old avatar, it was sooo cool.

Greetings to all!

I'm looking for some assistance on a newly started project. I've been working for about three months now on the plot/structure/puzzles of a new adventure game centered around a quasi-scifi/religious plot line. As I myself have absolutely no talent whatsoever in the artistic realm, it's an absolute must for me to recruit a talented artist right off the bat, or else the game will be going nowhere fast! To start things off, I'm looking for some pencil sketches of several locales steeped in Russian design. Specifically, two of the first locales are a Russian cathedral and the mayoral palace of a futuristic/yet pseudo-feudal Russian city.

I feel music can be a great visual inspiration, so if you're interested, I've selected some musical pieces I think would help the artist capture the "feel" of the locale I'm looking for. If anyone is interested, please send me an email at garretlh@tamu.edu or, of course, reply to this post....I'll be checking back on a daily basis! I am more than willing to go indepth into the plot line for those who are interested. Thanks for all of your help and hope to hear from someone soon!

I desperatley need help with my character! Front and back walking animations I did ok its the side view I can't get his head to match the front view correctley, and his arms just plain look shitty.... And I still don't have a normal view.

- EDIT -

Oh and Candle what is the program you used for that sprite? You always seem to surprise me with new innovative software!! lol Hook Me Up...

I'm working on an extensive game called "King's of Old."

The plot has been designed entirely.  The characters have all been designed.  The cutscenes have been storyboarded.

Instead of giving away the plot here, I'll read you the short introduction:

Quote“The people of Frealand were as wide and varied as their country was vast.

Between the mountains to the west, and the cold sea cost to the north and east, they lived in relative harmony.

They had gone without the notion of war since the reign of King Caroth nearly 200 years ago.

Frealand was safe.  At least, for most people.

But there was a secret war being waged…

…one that had endured the passage of time.

Most of Frealand lived in the capital city of Aldor, but that is not where our story begins.

No, our story begins far to the east, in a less traveled region.

Here dwelled the small mountain town of Glessing, which was barely large enough to support the small Bedaic church at its center.

From this town, a hero was born.

Wistan was his name.  The poor child was born an orphan, and raised by the piteous acolytes of the church.

But where they achieved in pity, they lacked in tenderness.

As a child Wistan was shown little remorse, and when he grew old enough he was put to work as a scribe for long hours.

But Wistan didn't mind the toilsome work.  In fact, he rather enjoyed the opportunity to read so much.

This is not a game of inventory puzzles or unintuitive machine puzzles.  The puzzles are all logic based.  You will find word puzzles, encryptions, pictograms, etc.  

It is highly plot oriented.  The game is unravelling a mystery that should be some fun to play.  Of course if you work with me on it, you'll get to know all the details.

There are 50-55 rooms in the game (if you count close-ups), all of which must be rendered.

I'm not looking for photorealism here, I just want it to look decent.  About the quality of Myst 1 is good enough.  I am new to max, so I'm a slow worker and I need some help.  Also I cannot do animation at all.

By assisting me, in no way are you obligated to do all of the graphic work, or complete this all the way through...I just am looking for some people to help lessen the load.

Could anyone give me help with any of the following?

Brass band type music/sounds, for a feel good musical comedy game about a brass band on death row.

Walking animations for teeny tiny lo-res character sprites, for a black comedy set in the North-East of England.

Thanks in advance.

I'm looking for a project with a good solid story finished that  someone would like me to do the graphics for, if you have a story that is complete and would like to give me a try mail me at my msn address or pm me.

Heres some examples of my work.

http://www.agsforums.com/yabb/index.php?topic=13576.0

And here...

http://www.agsforums.com/yabb/index.php?topic=12666.0

I only work in my own style and I use what c&c I get.

Hi there, i am currently working on a game called "the trial" it is about a murder in a courtroom. I was originally going to do the graphics myself but my cartoony style didn't suit the story. So i am looking for a dedicated artist to work on a serious project with me. unfortuneatley they would need t do the whole job or i would need several people. BAckgrounds, characters and animation. I can do all of the scripting and stuff but need a good artist to complete to good standards. however i wouldn't mind using Broken sword type graphics as they suited the plot. If anyone is interested. please pm me soon!

This is for a surprise game in which I have been thinking up for about 1 year and 3 months now. The plot is complete. The story is about %100 complete. And the game puzzles are about %85. This is something in addition to my Simpsons Game.  Although my Simpsons game is on hold, I will still release Templates in my spare time.

I have designed all of the rooms already, and all I have designed all the characters.

This game will be a full fledged Commercial game in which I hope to be able to offer to large audience in different languages and possibly as many different OS's as AGS is supported in.

I will not reveal the game Title Or plot to anyone but my team. It will be revealed before release, but not anytime soon.

Please read what I need carefully.


Well I am in need of some help. First off, this is what I need:

Background Artist/Background Animator:   First off, the style I need here is Cartoonish. Very Detailed Cartoonish. I need something in the humourous way that Day of the Tentacle was made, but I want the graphics to look good as the graphics in CMI, or even Runaway.

Character Artist/animator: Same as above. I need it to blend in well.

Inventory Item/ GUI Artist: This can very.

You will all be paid for your work.  Payment is as follows:

$1.50 for each background
$0.50 for each object in the room
$0.25 for each inventory Item
$5.00 for the entire GUI
$0.15 for each frame of a character (This adds up. Think about it, if you make one character and he has 250 frames worth of animation, you would get paid the following: $37.50 per character! Yikes this would kill me)

Now after that, I am gonna need the following:

Voice Actors-----   For now this is gonna be in English. But I would like to have Voice acting in the following Languages: Italian, German, French, Spanish, Possiblu Japanese and Chinese if possible.

Language Translations-------  I am gonna need the game text translated in the following languages: Italian(Most likely I will be doing that, Spanish, German, French, Portuguese(I hope I spelled that right), and some other languages.

Voice actors will be paid the following: $3.00 for every 100 lines done correctly.
Translators: Will be paid $10.00 for the whole thing.

Musician for soundtrack and background music: In all this person will probably get paid $10 for helping. Must contribute in about 5 tracks atleast before being paid.

Programmer: To port AGS to MAC and Amiga. I really wish my game can be played on those systems. PLease dont comment. I know of all the already released threads about this. If anyone does it with CJ's permission, then I will (With CJ's Permission) pay that person $50.00. I still own an Amiga and would love to play the games on those systems. And the reason why I want a MAC version available is becouse I want to market this game to more than just Linux, Windows and Dos users.

And lastly, I am gonna need some Beta Testers to test the game. I will need 1 or 2 testers for each language and OS that the game will be ported to. For this, I will not be paying anyone. You would be getting a to play the game, therefore I feel that it would it only be appropriate that you pay me for this. The advantage of this is that you would be only paying a small percentage of the price. The price will be $15.00. Its good becouse I plan to sell the game at a price of $45.00.

Now the only problem for those who will help and get paid, you will have to pay a base price for the game, which I think will be $10 or something. I would not be able to afford the game for free for you at that point.

If you would prefer to help for free in all these things, you will get a free copy of the game. But keep in mind, I still need you to follow deadlines. If you were to take a free copy of the game, rather than me paying you, hehe, that would be cheaper for me.

If you will be payed, you will only be payed in PAYPAL.

Some features of the package:

*Nice CD and Manual and Cover
*Commentary as an option from me
*Different Translations
*Hopefully different OS's
*Interviews
*Sketches
*Making of the game
*And more

Also if anyone knows of good publishing companies, please let me know.

Please dont respond in this thread. If you do, I will not respond back. Not becouse I want to be rude, but becouse I want to talk privately. So please PM me, dont E-mail me yet. Just PM ME. Dont e-mail me becouse I dont know what is SPAM or NOT, so I could accidentaly delete your email.

Oh and CJ, you will get major Credit in the game and will also get a free copy of the game and a free t-Shirt that states the game was created with AGS.

I will reveal this about the game:

I am a big Zak McKracken fan. This game will be in its spirit. It will include many concepts from the this game and many other of my favorite and humourous games. Of course there will also be a whole load of Originality, and an interface and other interacting game features that some of you may have not seen before, I hope.

So please let me know. But if anyone wants to do this for free, it would be a big big big help on me financially. Also if you do work for free, not only do you get a free copy, but a percentage of each game sold. EG, if a game sells, you might get somewhere between $0.50 to $1.00 per copy sold.

Also CJ, I would like you to automatically gain $5.00 for each copy sold, just becouse I want to show appreciatiion for this Great engine.

So please let me know if your interested.

Also, I would like to include Cameo appearances of people in this community. Not all would make it, but if you want to, you can ask me, and if the artist must get paid, I must unfortunatly charge you what he is getting paid. But be assured that your character might not need that many frames :)

Hi! i'm new around here... and I pretty much want to make a game of my own... but right now i have no idea how to use ags... so the best way i could think of learning the program was to make a remake... the problem is i can't rip the animation off this game properly...

Scooby Doo Mystery for the Sega Genesis
was a point and click adventure! i don't know if you've ever heard of this... but here's a screenshot:
(http://www.vgmuseum.com/pics5/Scooby%20Doo%20Mystery%20(GS).gif)
it was very DOTT-like... now what i need you're help for is ripping all, if not most, of the animations of this game... it's available on most rom and emulator sites just google it... hehe... (i know it's illegal but who plays the sega genesis nowadays?)
Pls! i really need your help on this one... all i need is the character sprite sheets and that's it...
By the way, there are 2 adventure games on this one... so i was thinking of making both separately...
PM me of your interested...
thanks!

-JaM

P.S.
I would suggest that you download the emulator DGen v1.21... there is an option there where you can take out layers (like the backgroud or sprite) don't worry about the backgrouds... i have that covered... all i need are the sprite animations of the characters involved... and maybe even the font!:D

I very much need talented (aren't we all?) scripters for HORRORSHOW
the game will involve the "regular" adventure game feats: solve puzzles, talk to people.
aswell as some action based parts: evade/destroy zombies.

for storyline and some screenshots check the games in production page or email me at:
fruittree86@hotmail.com

sorry I can't give a lot of info here, but I'm sure that if you like the screens you'll like working on the game with the rest of us :)

also,
if you're still dooubting and need more info or you got any other questions regarding the game just email me, and I'll email you  ;D

I'm looking for a concept artist for a serious science-fiction/cyberpunk project currently in the pre-production phase. Specifically, I'm looking for someone who'd like to draw up some concepts of locations, ships, machinery, logos, etc. While the story is mostly set in concrete, much of the design is still up in the air. Though I'm looking for nothing too "cartoony" or unrealistic, you would have a lot of freedom in how you created your work and also a lot of input in the game. Or something like that. Whatever. I'm looking for a concept artist.

If you're interested, PM me or send me an e-mail at jsredwall[at]hotmail.com.

I'm looking for someone with a cool narrator voice to read my introduction sequence for a cutscene :)

I would like an old-man voice...so if you're an old man that would be great...

hmm...

i don't think there are very many old men who frequent this forum...

anyway, maybe someone has a grandfather or is comfortable asking their parents to help them out with stuff like that....

I need someone to do backrounds for my game, because i must be the worst person at art in the world :D. if you are interested send us an e-mail or post back :D or if you want info on my game just e-mail more or post back.

i need help with characters and animations(walking)

I need help with my project, it is a Metal Gear Solid fan game that is planned to have some of the features from other metal gear solid games, probably a mix of MG (Metal Gear) and MGS (Metal Gear Solid).

Project Name: Metal Gear Zero (Place holder name until a final name is chosen)

Graphics
The sprites I am using have a very unique style. They aren't tiny like the original Metal Gear games so alot of detail can be captured in them. The backgrounds are of equal quality and are fit to a simple perspective. I am trying to make everything relatively simple so it is easier to work with.

Gameplay Ideas
The gameplay will use the techniques from the original Metal Gear games, along with features from the next generation Metal Gear Solid games. Ideas are sleeping, crawling, distracting, etc...

I want guns to the in the game, but nothing too complicated since animating is hard work. so, most likely there would only be the basic weapons aswell as some weapons to distract the enemy.

Storyline
Storyline is yet to beÃ,  decided, but that is why I need a story writer. However, the game is set to start just after MGS1.

Screenshots and Concepts
(http://www.xixgaming.leafo.net/mgssprites.png)
Early concepts of some of the in-game characters or practice sprites.

(http://www.xixgaming.leafo.net/newlab.png)
A background to test for style and give an idea of how the game will look. However, thisÃ,  does not include GUIs.

I am looking for:
Story Writer: Preferably someone who has spare time and has experienced the Metal Gear Solid game plots.

Character designer: Someone who can design well thought out characters with a good description of their appearance, strengths and weaknesses, as well as their background.

Animator: Possibly someone to help me animate the characters and scenery for better cutscenes and gameplay.

Midi Composer: Someone who can make MIDIs for different situations: Happy, Emotional, Creepy, Quiet, Evil, etc...

Scripter: Not sure, but if I can't script it right, I may need assistance.

Contact me
To contact me, you can either:

Thank you for your time. :)

yeah people, once again, put just a little more info about your desires.

and Rad, what about this:

http://www.hardwoodartisans.com/hodesks_5.html

It pains me a LOT to say that Michael Bechard, who has been working with me on Anchorhead, has quit for personal reasons. He was the artist and animator - or at least that was the idea. What actually got done was precious little, although very good.

(http://www.agagames.com/redrum/Menu.jpg)

Didn't I say he was good?

But I need someone else now. Please, don't ignore this second appeal of mine. It's not about just doing a game, it's about doing it right, and about doing a good horror game, of which there are hardly any out there.

PS - I'd need someone to draw backgrounds, characters, assorted sprites, and/or animations. These can be one person, or as much as five. I don't really care.

PPS - The game, as you see, is Anchorhead - a freeware Inform game by Michael Gentry. He's given me permission to port it to the world of graphical adventures.

I am looking for help on my Awakening of the Sphinx game. For the demo, look in the thread linked in the banner in my sig. Here's what I need:

As is everyone else, I'm looking for help with background and character art. I'd also like to hear from anyone that can do a short video cutscene in 3d or in 2d. If you'd like more info on the game before deciding, or just want to volunteer, check out the game thread, but also feel free to PM me.

Once again we have somebody looking for a background artist...

That's right. I need somebody to draw pictures for me. I hear the groans, and the rolling of eyes, and you ask yourselves, "Why the hell should I want to work on this guys game?"

And I'll tell you why... because I'll pay you too. (This may or may not be related to appropriate items that can be tax deductable, but nevermind that).

That's right. And in case you didn't notice... I'll make it stand out.

I'll pay you to do backgrounds.[/size]

"How much?" I hear you ask. Well, that depends on how good you are.

Somewhere between $5 and $13 per background. $5 if you're good, $8 if you're impressive, $13 if you make me wet my pants. [Basically what I'm saying is that it's negotiable around these ranges].

The game has been written, and boy am I a genius... it's a masterpeice.

It's sort of a fantasy thing... well, when I say fantasy... it's kind of, well... yeah. [Not the sort of fantasy that's got wizards and people with swords and stuff]. but oh well.

If you are genuinely interested and want more details... drop me a PM, or shoot off an email to chris@toefur.com. Then we can chat, barter, sort things out, make love, and that will be that.

Please note that this is a serious offer. If you like drawing, and want a bit of extra pocket money for doing something you enjoy... why's not to say no.

Well, unlike toefuzz, I cannot pay anyone for their services. However, I do have a similar dilema. I am not an artist, and I need backgrounds. Instagame is nice, but the space pack isn't helping me much. I'm doing a Monkey Island fangame, which in case you don't know has a setting in the caribbean. Any help would be greatly appreciated, any artists whose work is used in the final version of the game will be acknowledged in the credits, and well, that's about all I can do. I know that counting on others isn't the best way to get things done, but I will be in your debt for years to come. monkey_05_06@hotmail.com

I searched the net and couldnt find any animations of LeChuck. Basically all i need is the sideways animation. It will be used in my game in progress Quest for Cinema in a cutscene. Your name will be mantioned in the credits. Any one interested?

Hi all,

I'm new to ags and would like to thank you all for the great games you make with ags,reminds me the good old games i used to play,very funny and creative
I'm currently working on my first game, i already have the plot, a custom gui and about 60% of the scripting part, i really like ags scripting and i feel at ease in that domain but i suck when it comes to making charsets and backgrounds so if there is someone here that has some free time and the will to help pm me please!
I would need 3 charsets: 4 poses, 3 pics per pose, low res like "5 days a stranger".
And something like 8 small backgrounds like the ones in the mansion in 5 days(again
I can help with anything related to coding in exchange =)

Laters

So you think you can do backgrounds? You think you can do them well? Well, here might be something for you! Because...

I'm looking for a background artist for Goldlagoon! So far I've been doing all the backgrounds by myself and I now realised that the game won't be released in a looooooooooooong while if I don't ask for help. So, if you think you can make good-looking low-res backgrounds in the style seen in this thread

( http://www.agsforums.com/yabb/index.php?topic=3146.0 )

PM me.

Basically, you should avoid using outlines and use bright colours. Notice, that you don't need to do all the backgrounds, I'd still make about half of them. I'd also make a sketch for you and you should be able to make a background out of that sketch. So, if you think you're the right person for the job, PM me!

So, anyone can make for me a some sort of prehistoric gui in MI style? I need also some explain to how I can program my AG whit it ( the script that let all GUI button works).

The GUI need to be 320 x 40.

TNX very much..

i wasn't accually sure where to post this at first but anyway......

i tryin to make a game mainly about magic related stuff and i can't really draw for crap.
the backgrounds are a lot easier than the characters tho, anyway what i need is a main character (like in a cloak or something cool with a staff/magic related) and maybe even a few other characters. i would also like some cool animations (step by step) of maybe like a character catching on fire or being blown up by magical forces. it will mainly be a game for me but if i ever posted it tho you would definetly be credited. and if you wan't you can make you a character (npc) with your animation and i WILL find a spot for him/her. maybe like your a shop owner burning cats or whatever. but if you can help email me at sad6996@yahoo.com with maybe a sample or so. thanx a bunch

Ok people making a quest for glory/Kings Quest/ Leisure suite larry game, how you ask me? well lately sierras computer crashed, and all the games got mixed together and our hero from quest for glory is lost in the colamity, he needs to get back to his own game and find out whos responsible for this mess, and fix it.

King's Quest III enhanced could use the help of a number of testers and/or proofreaders.
It has an enhanced plot and a mouse interface; the graphics are from the AGI version.

For details, please see this thread (http://www.agsforums.com/yabb/index.php?topic=15622.0).

The Story

OK,  something hit me last night.  It was the best idea for a game in a while (maybe not the best, but it was pretty good).  Anyway, I think about the plot and locations and I thought up some good puzzles.  I was very motivated.
  But I forgot that I had to do the most tedious part of all-  the walkcyles.

The request

I'm looking for someone to do my walkcyles.  Before you go "Rtf is a idiot if he thinks I can do all his character art", think again.  I'll be doing all the art and animation, except for the walkcyles.

The Specs

All I'm asking for is a black-outlined, north, south, and east walk animation.  I don't want any charcter art, just the outline.  A template.
My game is:

-Lo Res.
-Hi-Color.
-320 x 200
- 16 bit.

And I want the outlines to be done on a canvas size of 40 x 88, give or take a couple pixels based on the needs of the animation.

The Benefits Package

-Name in the credits
-Recognition.
-A very happy releasethefrogs
-Automatic Beta Testing slot (unless you don't want to)

The Contact Info

You can PM me, or email me at guitardude10293@cox.net

The Conclusion

Remember-  I am all motivated to start the game.  The only thing in my way is the tedium that is walkcyles.  If no one helps me out here, my busy self will be forced to do them, possible ruining an otherwise good game.

Thanks in advance :)

Hello everyone :) I'm working on a RPG called Asporia: Hidden Threat
http://www.agsforums.com/yabb/index.php?topic=16316.0
I need RPG themed mouse cursors and someone to proof read.
Note: I don't need the "Talk" mouse cursor, if you want to talk to someone, it will be enough to just interact him. But I need an attack cursor (it should be a sword).

I am in need of a  background artist for Knightsbridge Chronicles. If interested please PM me for details.

Okay, so here's my post. as it's my first, I want to preface this with 'I got the whole bit about not asking for help or anything without screenshots,' but therein lies the issue.

I have a really amazing (I think) idea for a game, based entirely on a novel type deal that I've been writing off and on. The novel's stuck at the moment so for a change of pace I wanted to do a game based on it.

However, I can't draw. At all. I'm crap at it. So I was hoping there was someone on here who can't write dialog or plots or music and we could get together and get married in videogame collaborative heaven. Or something.

Here's my plot. It's a dark one I think, but the story gives me goosebumps, cynical as I am. :)

It takes place mainly on two worlds, the first is Earth in the year 2092 AD, and the second on a planet much like Earth of the past, set in the equivical present.

In the prologue (which I guess would be an opening cutscene), the father of the main character on Earth-- a powerful politician-- is the target of failed assasination attempt. He escapes into an underground subway, only to be picked up by strange, otherworldly beings.

His daughter, Mehlia Browne (the main character from Earth) finds out about the attack and assumes he was murdered in it, since his body is never found and he never returns. Until, a week later, she begins receiving letters telling her that her father is really alive, and she needs to find him.

On Azerale, the planet like Earth of the past, horrifying monsters terrorize the human population. They are a remnant of a war long past, nearly 500 years ago. It's so far away no one really remembers who started it or over what, just that the demonic entities known as the Choirs kill humans at will and prevent them from living any type of normal life. The main character on Azerale is Kallis Strachan, part of a legendary bloodline that has been the only defense against the Choirs since their arrival. She has returned to the city of her birth after receiving news of her grandfather's brutal murder at the hands of the monsters. But now she is the last of this family and the end of a legacy and a destiny. For it's prophecized that she will be the one to discover the true roots of the Choirs' beginnings, and be the one to end it. Her grandfather left a note giving her a place to begin her search, and she takes off for this city.

As the story progresses both characters meet and traverse both worlds and several others, as Mehlia tries to find her father and Kallis tries to find the source of her ruined world's misery. Over the course of an expansive plot with many twists and turns they come to realize their destinies are intertwined, because the location of Mehlia's father is tied in with the destruction of Kallis' home. Because Mehlia is known to very important people by another name-- simply, the Lamb of God.

As the story progresses the characters discover the truth of life on both their planets and organized religion. God and the Devil were leaders of warring alien races existing for millenia, populating planets with similar clones of their races to be used in their battles. The angels are the soldiers of God, terrifying monsters made of fire, the same beings that are all over Kallis' world. Because, as it turns out, Azerale is the end product of God's manufacturing, and Earth is facing the same fate.

When God's angels come to a habitable world, they place upon it a device known as the Revelation Machine, which is where the book in the bible gets its name. Since God cannot be everywhere at once, this machine is his calling card to let him know when a planet is psychologically prepared for his arrival. The Lamb of God activates it, mostly unknowingly, by acting out a script imbedded within their brain. This script is triggered by specific stimuli, and it forces the Lamb to break the Seals mentioned in Revelation. When all seven are broken, God is called and he makes his appearance, strips the world of whatever he can take, and leaves broken faith and masses of Angels/Choirs in his wake. This happened to Azerale nearly 500 years ago, and it will happen to Earth in less than one, unless the Lamb is stopped.

That's the jist of the plot. As far as my talents go, I (think I!) can write well, I can also compose music and perhaps some background images, and I can probably figure out scripting. I don't know for sure cos the scripting doesn't LOOK hard, but you can't just write lines of code without images, and those I have none of. :) So, if anyone read this long-ass post and wants to work on this, I'm all ears for talent submissions. ;) Just lemmie know what you need.

My email's frost@second-chapter.net

I eagerly await replies. :)

This posts goes out to all artist who are intersted in doing background art for a game myself and 3 others have been working on for just over a year.

First off, the game will be called Bankrupt.Ã,  So far all of the story is complete, however, there are still many holes to be patched and many touchups must still be made.

In the game you will take control of a character named Morton M. The game will feature a very original story and will be for the most part a comedy with narration remenicent of the Space Quest series, however, we have tried to deviate as much as possible from the other quest games to ensure that the story is as original as possible.

Most of the game will use a point-and-click style, however, there will also be many mini games and sequences that allow the players to have other types of gameplay.

Currently our team consists of two writers, a composer, a co-animator, and the character designer which is myself. (if you guessing why I said 3 others, it's because I am one of the two writers)

Below is a poster I created to advertise the game: (any feedback on improving the poster would be appreciated.)

(http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/Poster(small)3.JPG)

This is a very low quality example for a higher quality picture click here

http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/Poster(small).jpg

Once again it would be greatly appreciated if someone would help us out.Ã,  I know it's a shot in the dark because alot of you have your own projects, but I have exhausted all of my other contacts due to their lack of time.

I would also like to remind people that this will not be a walk in the park, so far we have planned around 70 backgrounds for this full length game.Ã,  We are also looking for a fairly decent artist.

If I had to give an estimate as to how complete the game is I would have to say around 20% but that is only because the backgrounds are such a crutial part.

Other details about the game will be given to those who choose to help, also to help the flow of production we have already drawn out concept thumnails of the backgrounds to give to the background artist.

If you need any other info go ahead and ask.

Hello Im a poor programmer who needs some help, in my up and comeing game "Cola Man", I need some music, make it very heroic and over wrought, oh and you know that sound when  you take a double take and and a MAJOR anti-climax happens?

And if the backround artest from fatman, i LOVE your style, if yu can help me, PM and we will talk business. that includes everyone else to

The work on my "Mad Butcher" game goes on.Ã,  Ã, I've gathered pictures both of kingsburry run in the 30 and now.Ã,  along with other cleveland landmarks.Ã,  But it's seems that my drawing is once again like that of an epeleptic monkey.Ã,  So anyone who is good at art and intrested in helping me with my game. PLEASE PLEASE send me a resonse.Ã,  Most people would not take a writer seriously. but i need the help.Ã,  Ã, if you would like a copy of the plot and dialog just drop me an e-mail.

Hi! I'm new to the forums, so please help me out. I'm in the process of creating my first game, "Hero's Quest: Quest for Adventure". It's going quite nicely, but I've come to a standstill.
I need music! Preferably Sierra-type music. But I don't know how to make it! Please help me. Any suggestions at all are welcome.   :-\

Hi all,

I could use a second pair of eyes to tighten up some areas of my game.  I don't need story help, but I could use some puzzle help.  I want to keep the game story-driven without losing interactivity.  Currently, there are areas in the game where you simply go from set piece to the next without any real puzzles to solve.  With that in mind, frop me a PM if you are interested.

Thanks,

-Dave

Hello,
I need inventory item sprites for my horror game, Lost In The Nightmare. The demo will be released soon.
For further info, http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=14497.0

New information below: 1/23/2005
(Please read the edits below for the most recent updates)

I am currently working on a project called Darkmoor Manor, which is based on a short story I've written called the Darkmoor Curse (this was done well before I ever heard of the Nancy Drew game). The goal is to create a professional-quality game within 2 months time using the Adventure Game Studio by Chris Jones. The team currently consists of Luke (Space Pirate Caine) as the background artist, Steve Mansell as the scripter, and myself. What we are looking for is a talented background colorist who will work tirelessly with me to create a memorable and immersive experience. A few images of the current gui design in action and some of the characters follow:

The current gui (operational)
(http://members.cox.net/veradin/darkmoorgui2.gif)
The current menu (operational)
(http://members.cox.net/veradin/darkmoormenu.gif)
Some animations of the five characters you can use in the game
(http://members.cox.net/veradin/talkanims.gif)

and an ambient tune for Darkmoor Manor
http://members.cox.net/veradin/Darkmoorday1a.rar (http://members.cox.net/veradin/Darkmoorday1a.rar)

And now for the story:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The year is 1982, when computers were just beginning to boom and free enterprise had reached a new pinnacle. Father Alan Brophy, a Catholic priest, has come close to being defrocked for his controversial essay "The Supernatural Religion", in which he cites much support for the existence of ghosts and dark forces- perhaps forces that are even more dangerous than the Devil. This essay, meanwhile, has attracted the attention of a pioneer in the field of Parapsychology, Luke Bradshaw, who has been investigating strange phenomena with his team for a few years on grant money from his college. Luke is running low on resources, however, and latches on to Father Brophy's interest in the supernatural to draw him into a trip to Darkmoor Manor, a lonely estate in Wales.

The five investigators have been asked by the current tenants of the Manor to help them free it of a terrible curse, and Bradshaw and Brophy intend to use this opportunity to prove or disprove the existence of ghostly apparitions once and for all. Little do they know that they are about to hit the Unnatural Jackpot, and it may cost them all their very souls!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The completed short story will be shipped with the game and will offer more backstory on the characters and (hopefully) amplify the experience for the readers among you.

The entire adventure (minus the introduction) will take place in and around Darkmoor Manor, a sinister yet docile-looking Manor bordering a near impenetrable forest. Much of the game is played as Luke Bradshaw, though there are times you will switch to Father Brophy and the other characters, and the entire of the game is told from Brophy's perspective (making for some interesting text feedback on certain actions).

The resolution will be 320x200, which is both faster to design quality backgrounds for and quick for animation purposes. The reason is simple: We will not spend more than 2-3 months on this project, so it will be finished in that time. This is going to be a test of the abilities of all persons involved to turn out a quality product in as short amount of time as possible.


Again, this will be an entire game, but it is also a test of abilities and creativity under a real time constraint. This is not a contest, and the scripter and background artist will most likely be offered further opportunities should this project pan out. Hope to see emails from you soon,

Edit: After a slow holiday start, Nataly has already turned out a technical demo with a fully-functional gui, menu, and screenshot utility as well as Father Brophy and the other characters walking around and responding to objects. If you are a competent background artist with a flair for dark and moody designwork, contact me immediately.

Edit 2:  Nataly had to leave the team due to school, but in return I found an excellent background artist, Luke Rideout.  You'll see some of his work in the future, but we now need a talented scripter and a background colorist to get things moving.  If you feel you are qualified for either (or both) positions, please email me at Lord_Hades@uomail.com with a sample (or link) of your work. Also let me know, in a short paragraph, a bit about you and your work ethic, and having an interest in this type of game is a plus. 

Edit 3:  Steve Mansell joins Darkmoor as our scripter!  He's already picked up where Nataly left off and completed the terrormeter, and I think you guys are going to like the results.  We are still looking for a background colorist, though, so please contact me at the above email with a sample of your work if you're interested.  Darkmoor needs you!


Shane Stevens, Project Lead

Hey yall,
I've already said this on the same page but I'm getting desperate. If you can draw non-cartoony backgrounds, please contact me to work on Knightsbridge Chronicles. This is not a large task, there are not that many BGs.

Alec

I`m making an adventure game, with some RPG qualities. It`s called White Dragon Black Magick, and is about a boy that (due to a fact happened during his infancy; i prefer to keep this secret until a demo is released) learns the Black Magic.
He begins a trip to test his skills with the final hope to find the White Dragon Kolbrenymar, one of the most ancient and expert practicers of necromancy.
But then , thanks to the dragon, he will discover that is old master is not the one he thought.....

The game is based upon a RPG (paper&dice) of my creation, and so its rules will be briefly explained in a readme file. As I said, the RPG elements are few, so this will be only an adaption of the RPG. The setting is based on the fantasy world I created (more details are welcome, to those who can be interested).

The interface is made by:

- a single cursor: left click to walk; right click popups a Gui, with the buttons: talk, get, look, interact, cast spell, magic book, use inventory, sense magic.
Clicking on an hotspot, object or other char with the right click, and then clicking on the desired button, performs the action on that hotspot, obj etc.
Cast magic instead, opens another gui, with the list of spells currently known, Book of Magic displays a dialog (use to know information on each spell learned); Use inventory opens the inv interface.

-in the bottom part of the screen, a permanent Gui shows: what`s under the mouse; the PM (Points of Magic, like Mana, used to cast spells); the PAv (Advancement Points, similar to experience points, in this game only used to increase PM); the Level of Power (the measure of the wizard`s casting power. You can cast certain spells only if you are at a certain level of power. The more PM you have, the more your Level is high).

- I also made the menu, and ripping and modifying, a little part of the main character.


Now, due to my inability to draw, I`m stuck, if I don`t find someone to help me.
I thought to made my game in italian (i`m italian, obviously) but I`m ready to do it in english instead, if this is a problem.

In sum: if anyone is interested in this project, and is skilled enough in the difficult art of drawing, please let me know. I will send him also a demo (with testing backgrounds, and the char with only some sprites) to show him how the interfaces do work.

Hi there,

Sierra'esque faerie-tale adventure game seeks portrait artist.

Our game is KQ2.5: Tale of Two Kingdoms (see link in sig) and has been going steady for nearly a year now. Most of the room graphics are finished and the sprites are going very well, but we'd love to have another good portrait artist on our team for the pics that pop up when you talk to people. PM me if interested, please!
(the portraits do not have to be animated; we have someone who can take care of that. Game resolution is 320x200 x 16-bit; portraits would be roughly 120x120 pixels)

Thanks!

Greetings all,
I am currently working on an ambitious project, it's going to be a short AGS film called "Je suis Mort" I created the concept and the script was written by Rui Pires, whom I'm sure you all know to be a great writer. I am not especially gifted in the art department and to make this work I am in need of an artist. The work would be quite intense and there is a lot of animation. If you can work as a bg artist or a character artist please contact me.
Regards,


Alec

The story so far .
The Mystery of the Faceless Corpse
DAY I
Intro:

(Collins' office. Alex enters)

ALEX: You called, sir?

COLLINS: Yeah, and you took your time Grier. We're the freakin' police, we don' run on flexi time!

ALEX: So what's happening? You got me a case or just more abuse?

COLLINS: Have I got you a case? Jesus, Grier there's been a murder!

ALEX: Out here? What was it, a cow?

COLLINS: Grier, you've been mouthing off about how much of a hotshot you were back in the Bronx homicide since the god-damned day you got here and now I wanna see the proof. This is Cape Cod's first murder for almost 2 years and I shouldn't think a bit of professionalism is too much to ask for.

ALEX: Jeez, sorry Collins. So, do we have an I.D?

COLLINS: No, that could be difficult, Grier. Two uniform cops are on the scene, and they tell me that the body has no face?

ALEX: No face?

COLLINS: Is there an echo in the building? Now get your ass down there, Grier. It's the Mulvehille House. You know where that is, right?

ALEX: As in the Mulvehille Sisters? Of course. But why's the body at their house?

COLLINS: You tell me, Grier. The Mulvehilles called us about an unnamed ‘problem' and we sent a pair of uniform cops over. Next thing I know I'm told we got a dead body on our hands. Now, whatever you do go easy on the Mulvehilles, they're ‘pillars of the community', after all. You don't do ANYTHING to piss them off unless they become suspects, okay?

ALEX: Whatever you say, sir.

COLLINS: Damn straight. You're taking McElroy, the new guy. Show him how it's done, and don't screw it up. I won't be holding your hand on this one!

ALEX: Sure thing.
There is more but won't put it all here . Like to work with someone over chat and  toss things around .
No hurry on when it gets done , just want to do it . feel like helping ? let me know .

Hello!

Dave here looking for a few artists to work on a project that I've been designing for the past year.  I've finally gotten the design doc ready to a point where I'd like to discuss it with artists.  I am no artist myself (as is obvious to anyone who has played some of my games), and I'd like to give the project the level of detail that I think it deserves.

I currently have an excellent sprite/animator artist on board. He is a dynamo but I figured I'd better get other folks on board before he burns himself out.  In addition to him, I am looking for someone to design close-up talking animations for the characters, and a few background artists. 

The game will be in (640 x 480 resolution, roughly in the style of "I have no mouth and must scream."  (see http://www.adventure-archiv.de/i/nomouthscreenshots.htm for examples).

This will be a paid position.  I am aiming for this game to go commercial, and I believe in paying for quality work.  I'm aiming to pay around $500 along with a bonus or commission if the game sells well. I know this isn't much. I wish I could pay more, and if I am able to I certainly will.  At the very least, this game will enable a serious artist to create a diverse amount of artwork to use in a portfolio. Also, it'll be fun. If, after reading that, you are still interested - GREAT.

Please let me know if you are still interested. If so, we'll discuss it further. You can contact me at dave@davelgil.com.  Please supply an art sample or two.

Thanks!

-Dave

Hi there all!

I'm looking for a Narrator for my game, 'Off the Side'. There's not really a lot to do. Just a paragraph for the beginning and a couple of sentences for the end. I'm not sure what I'm looking for really. It could be a man or woman and I'm not fussed with the age either.
Though I was thinking it could be quite a commical voice (Like Little Brittans maybe). Or it could a mature voice, fatherly or motherly, as if reading the story to a child. Though its up to you if you've got any ideas of your own.

If you fancy your self as a narrator them send me a PM and I'll send you the small script!

If you want to see what my games like then theres a link in my signiture.

Thanks if you can help!

Hey everyone.
I'm looking for some more voice actors for Ravenmere. I currently have 3 people, but still need more people to do the remaining voices.
I'm finding it very difficult to get a female voice actor for Sarah, one of the main characters in the game, and Deanna, another important character.

Below I have some of the characters I'm looking for with their descriptions and sample texts.
If you feel you can do one or more of these, please record the sample text and PM me.
I would truly appreciate it.


Sarah - 28 year old psychic woman, very good looking. Nice voice.
Sample:(Distressed)"Alex! Where the hell are you? Something is very wrong here. If you get this message, fetch the Codex!"

Aldon Roberts - 27 year old Paranormal investigator. Sometimes a bit of a nerd.
Sample:(Determined)"I know the answer lies with those letters. And that Deanna woman? I don't trust her a bit."

Deanna - beautiful, mysterious woman of unknown age, most guess she is in her mid 20s.
Sample:(Angry)"I've told you already, I can't tell you about my mother! You'd best stay away from matters you don't understand."

Chad Willoughsby - 60 year old retired oil magnate.
Sample: "Well, I was born and raised here, and even as children we've been hearing some mighty spooky things about that old mansion."

Elizabeth Willoughsby - 58 year old wife of Chad. Very snobbish.
Sample: (Irritated)"Yes, yes yes. Those two were here asking almost as many questions as you. Now if that is all..."

Mitch Marshall - 22 year old cyber geek.
Sample: "Hey old buddy! How'd that case in London go? What was it this time? Oh yeah, that whole Werewolf terrorising the students thing?"

Chris Malvoi - 18 year old shop clerk.
Sample: (Nervous)"I didn't see them. They were definitely not at the store."


Thanks in advance.

I need a programmer for a horror mystery adventure game called The Treasure Thieves. Edited cause I don't need a bg artist, bad am badly in need of a good programmer.

Looking for part time concept artist, must know how to draw ruff sketches of people, iventory items, locations...

This position is temporary for our concept art stage, we could really need the help now! PM me if you are interested. thanks.

My turn to post a help request! Dun dun dun!

I started working on a game, Jivotat na edin Zubar, which is about a Bulgarian schoolkid. As it's going to be all in Bulgarian, the only way anyone here can help me is with pixel art. I can do only FF-style sprites, which are unsuitable for this type of game, so I need a sprite and background artist. If you're interested, either send me a pic of a classroom by PM, or a walking sprite/a face pic of a kid with glasses, you know, the alien-type. I'd be very happy if someone can help me.

I need artists and musicians...

I have several games ideas in mind, so if you would like work beyond my current game idea, I could give you stuff to do.

Current game:
It's another "trapped in room" game, with a "small" twist.

In the main game there's just 1 background, a couple of icons, about 20 objects, 1 main character.

In the intro I'll need like 3 more backgrounds and 4 more characters and a few animations.

As for music, I don't need much just something to keep the player entertained while watching the intro and playing the game.


(this is only my 2nd game so I'm keeping it simple in the mean time)

Hello everyone.

I am currently putting Ravensmere on hold for a while because I can no longer use my 3D software, so, for the time being, I'm remaking the Magic Knight series by Mastertronic as point and click adventures.
I suck at character animation, though, so I wonder if anybody out there can help me with this.

What I'm looking for is a comic book style character based on Magic Knight (this guy in the oversized helmet)

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v242/Darcnyss/stormbringer.jpg)


I would really appreciate any help in this, as I have wanted to do this for a very long time.

Due to a modem problem I can't really get online as often as I want, but you can PM me or send me an email if you are interested.

thanks a lot,
darcness

THX a lot

I recently posted this in the wrong place! So lets try again (thanx 4 correcting me!)
Looking for a dedicated team to start working on an adventure game its my first project and wont mind if your expierenced or newbie! All my content has recently been lost due to hardware difficulty and now only have scaned in pics and a quick feeble graphic attempt as it was  requested! Wanna as them not sure how to so oops.. like i said im new at this!

so heres where we at I do story writing puzzles and all the other difficult stuff have some adventures designed already most of them only 20 - 80% complete all concept  would like to c them go interactive! Got some creative new ideas that will challenge some of our forum coders well i think ne way! so Heres the challenge as I lay it down working on a game is a hard and long term commitment and I dont want any faders just dedicated gamers and designers!

I mentioned i do art and inform me how to post pics and ill give them to you!

Im looking for someone who can rip stuff from spongebob squarepants, like for example an image of a room. If someone knows how to do this but is too lazy, i can do it if you tell me how. I think this can be done scince the backgrounds in the simpsons template all seem to be ripped from the cartoon. Thanks.

I've recently played a VERY old game - "Presumed Guilty". It's NOT "Innocent Until Caught 2", it simply has the same name. It's a very interesting concept, and I'd like to do something similar.

What am I asking for? First of all, I'd like to discuss it with someone - see if it's feasible, see what kind of story could fit that concept, et all. Just discuss the concept, and see if it is, indeed, useable. Then I suppose I'd need an actual writer and an artist, but that's in the future - right now I'm more interested in discussing possibilities with someone who's interested. A conversation is all I ask, be it PM or via IRC or MSN. If you're interested, give me a call.

Sort of. It IS "text-based", but it has some rough graphics. Like UPLINK, it is played from a "computer viewpoint", but unlike UPLINK, it's a bona-fide adventure game. Now, I really like the idea, and I think there is real potential - if for nothing else, for experimental purposes, which is one area in which underground gamemaking excells because there's no profit loss anyway. If this is the game you mean (you're a police-sort-of-person who has been framed by a hacker and must use your computer to investigate and whatnot), then yes, I'd be very interested in chatting with you. PM, IRC or MSN?

Hi everyone,

I'm in need of help with puzzle design. Two colleagues of mine and I have been designing the story and feel of our game for the past 6 months, and have recently come to a point where we're all happy with the quality of the plot. Still, it would be very nice to have some fresh blood, especially now that it's all about creatively weaving interesting puzzles into the storyline.

Please PM me or email me at admin@dreamagination.org .

- STORY -

The project's name is 'Curse and Effect'. It's set in the 1930s and deals with a thief named Scott who gave up his profession in exchange for an ordinary job ever since his sister died and he was the only one left to care for his 8 year old niece Maxie. Still, the legend of his master thievery lives on. As a mysterious client approaches him to steal specific artifacts from a Mayan exhibition in a museum, Scott denies it numerous times... but since he is the only one qualified enough to break into this specific museum (he's done it before, after all), the client forces him to take the job by kidnapping his niece.

In shock and afraid to risk Maxie's life through his own rescue attempts, Scott actually complies and plans to break into the museum.
After avoiding numerous obstacles, he finds the required artifacts. But when one of them, a golden disc with a handle and ancient inscriptions, touches an electrical alarm cable by accident, it suddenly starts to glow and float in the air.
As Scott stares in wonder at what happens, someone beats him down from behind. The last thing Scott sees before he loses consciousness is the blurred image of a dark-haired woman who grabs the artifacts and then splits.

After Scott escapes from the museum and meets with his client, he is even more pressured to retrieve the artifacts. As he is beaten down again, he sees Maxie being shoved into a limousine where an elder man is waiting... seemingly the man who is behind the whole job.
So now Scott's job is to find the mysterious woman, retrieve the artifacts, find out about their origin and have his niece back in safety.

These are the first 2 of 10 chapters which will take the player to New York City, Spain, the Caribbean, South America and Hollywood.

- FEATURES -

- epic story with 10 chapters
- adventure and mystery, but still lots of humor
- hand-drawn 2D backgrounds with 3D animated toon characters
- animated movie sequences
- german and english version, both with voice packs

Here are some concept sketches for the characters:

 Howdy fellow AGSers!

If you didn't know me and my brother A-Hed are making a game called "the Artifact".
http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=13480.0

We are looking for a male to do a voice for a welsh dwarf.
Actually the dwarf should speak english but it would be terrific if he had a welsh accent since it is where he lives.

You can find facts, screenshots etc. about "the Artifact" at: http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=13480.0

Also if someone is interested at helping us out with some scripting we would be ever so happy :)

Please contact me by sending an e-mail: jonas@xtreem.nu

Cheers!

Hi!
I'm making a new game called Nathaniel Romero and the Hideous Space-boulder, and I need a midi or mp3/OGG composer who can compose a few Zak McKracken-like tunes.
And, no, I haven't cancelled either Sunrise Manor or Life of A Rockstar, they're just on hold til' I get this one done.

Background artists/colorists needed!

Can you do justice to this sketch, or draw in a similar style?

(http://www.miez.nl/tmp/appartment_eighties.jpg)

If so, please drop me a line.Ã,  We have much to discuss.Ã,  Oh yes.

'Ello,

I am seeking a co-writer for a game called "the Asinine Allstars". It is centered around a group of four high school kids that are also a pop rock band by the same name. I have a story outline, but it could use a little adding to.

I would at first like to discuss the game and see what kind of puzzle and situation ideas that we can come up with together. At this point, I am looking only for brainstorming as I am waiting for less-wintery weather to begin working on art (The game is set in the town i grew up in, and I still need to take pictures of the areas)

Here is a pic of the main characters. It is not final character art, but they will look something like this:
(http://invis.free.anonymizer.com/http://www.freewebs.com/impressiveowl/asinine-band-cover.jpg)

If this sounds like a winner to you, please contacted me via PM, Yahoo, or the email listed in my profile.

Im currently making a game on my own but wouldnt mind a hand in one of the following areas:

Background design

Character sprites (got some already im happy with but if you think you could help improve im open to suggestions)

voice acting, for speech of characters. Chances are im gonna have quite a few characters in my game so a considerable number of these may be required.

for the first two im really looking for somebody to instruct me on how to improve my current art, as i realize most people wont have the time or dedication to do all the hard work for somebody elses game:p

the voice acting however, i believe may turn up more results, as it can be quite a fun thing to do, especially seein as ull probably have the option to write ur own lines (so long as they fit in with the story of course), simply as it will mean each characters dialoug is written by a different person, n hopefully make them seem deeper. or something. anywho, interested, let me know with a PM or an email (ec_blue@hotmail.com).

Cheerio

Looking for artist to help with Sam and Max fangame. Job includes making comic-stills for cutscenes and maybe some secondary sprites. Email if interested (in my profile), send an example picture drawing Sam and Max. By the way, the game is being done in SLUDGE, if that turns anyone away.

Here's an example of art we've being doing so far: http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/whoutsidecolor.jpg

Hello,

I need a music artist for 'Troopers'!

I know how to write music myself, but I'm primarily a rock musician and not a composer and since I really don't have the time right now to become a composer and since I want high-quality soundtracks, I'm searching here.

I'd need a soundtrack featuring several songs. They don't have to be that long... It should be either a "classical war" soundtrack (like the Battlefield soundtrack or the Sudden Strike soundtrack) or a technical new age one (like Command&Conquer Series soundtrack or the StarCraft soundtrack).

PM if you're interested and I'll send you more information as well as some example soundtracks...

Here's the most current screenshot from 'Troopers':

Oooooh RTS's.

Lead character artist/animator

I'm looking for character artists to work on the game Indiana Jones and the Fountain of Youth. You will have good experience with drawing to 320x200 resolution and can match the style of characters from Fate of Atlantis or what you have seen of our game, Fountain of Youth.

I'm looking for dedicated team members (character artists with a proven ability to animate) who will stick around for as long as necessary, who will keep in touch with the team and can occasionally work to some tight deadlines.

You will also have no problems with the legality of our project.

Anyone interested in this position should send
one or two sprite sheets of former work, and if
possible an example of an FoA/FoY style character

plus your name, contact email address and
AGS forum nickname to

mark@barnettcollege.com

Hi there!

A Tale of Two Kingdoms (http://taleoftwokingdoms.com) (recently featured on http://www.justadventure.com) is looking for someone to do a short intro movie, in AVI or MPEG or anything. It can be relatively short but we'd like something flashy to start the game with. This is primarily for our title screen and logo, but if you would be interested in doing a more extended intro sequence I'd be happy to hear it.

Leave me a private message if interested, please.

Yours,

It's the story of a guy who is stupid, with no talent, no friends (only 2), no girlfriend,  very few money.
he works in the research and development sector of a sugar factory: the sugar haven't changed for ages, and he almost have nothing to do all the day.
He needsto change his life, make it better. maybe change his job.
the purpose is to find the most funny and stupid way to find money, friend, girlfriend...etc...

I need some talented people, with a lot of humor, and good ideas to help me.
here is the first screenshot:

Hope this message will even be read by someone...
(edited: just like I thought, nobody read this)

I need help in my game. I'm in need of a sprite. It needs to be an Ankheg popping out of the ground. Can someone do this for me? I am in desperate need of it. If anyone needs a picture of an Ankheg, I have one. Just give me your email address so I can send it to you. Mine is storycatchermike@yahoo.com.

Hey musicians,

I'm looking for a "jingle" to go with my logo screen.  I have an idea of what I want it to sound like, but I don't know how well I can describe it.

It's just one note, from a bass guitar with an echo-ish sound to it and it fades away as it goes..
so imagine hitting the note and then just letting it go to slow fade.  I'm thinking the note last about 5 or 6 seconds.

The closest thing I can think of as to what it sounds like....if you have played Mortal Kombat I, it's sorta of the note you hear when you do a successful Fatality, but I don't want as scary of a note.

My current avatar to the left is my logo, and this is where the music will be played.  It will come into view, then the note is played.

I have no music background so I have no idea what "key" what "note" what minor/major it needs to be in....I just know once I get the right note or whatever.....

PM me if you think you can provide something
credits will be given in every game if you so desire.

thank you

I'm searching for voice actors for my game Caribbean Mysteries. It's a pirate comedy game in Monkey Island-esque kind of humor (It was meant to be a kind of parody of MI but became sort of it's own). It's about a young man called Torleif Shufflefoot and his pet monkey Crispy who land on an island called Touché Island. There they find about a legendary treasure called The LeDrake treasure that is said to be the biggest treasure in the world, that is said to contain a big magic power that can make it's bearer do whatever he wants. Torleif decides to search for the treasure to make his pirate career a lot better but what he doesn't know yet that the search for the treasure will lead him to the love of his life, Leslie Quality, the island's Governor's daughter, and face the most evil pirate of the Seven Seas, Captain Pepe "Pepperoni" Roni, who wants to get the treasure in order to take over the world.

So far I only need voices for 4 different charaters for the demo version of game (the finished game will have around 50 characters in total).

Here's some short fact of the characters that will be featured in the game that needs voices (one character is not included because that character will be voiced by myself):

Torleif Shufflefoot

He's the hero of the game. Have recently been gratiuated a pirate course but had a bad start of his pirate career resulting him been marooned on a island. However he made a raft of old shipwrecks and timber from the island and sailed away. Torleif and his pet monkey floats around the sea for days until they discover Touché Island where they find out about the Legendary LeDrake treasure. Torleif is clever and funny but he can never play a tuba right, he can only make fartnoises with those. I want Torleif to sound a bit Guybrush Threepwood esque.

Sampleline: "Hi, I'm Torleif Shufflefoot and I'm looking for the LeDrake treasure."

Crispy the Monkey
Torleif's pet. He is a good friend and very helpful to Torleif. He is very smart so you can get his help with almost anything (even at cooking). Sometimes he tends not to do anything unless you pay him (mostly bananas or other fruit). Unlike Torleif he can play a tuba very good and is very proud of it.

Captain Pepe "Pepperoni" Roni

The meanest, baddest and most evil pirates of the Seven Seas. He wants get the LeDrake treasure so he and his men can take over the world. One thing that annoys him is when people mispronounce his name (which almost eveybody tend to do except for his first mate Mr. Smile) because his name is very similiar to "pepperoni". For his voice I would like him to sound a lot like LeChuck from the MI-series except not undead (Pepperoni is a living mortal pirate unlike LeChuck).

Sampleline: "Now that we have Leslie Quality in our hands, nothing is going to stop us from getting the LeDrake treasure."

Burga: Voice actor found!

Chief: Voice actor found!

Princess Trinidad: Voice actress found!

Guard

A quite strict guard who have the task of not letting anyone in the native village. He takes his job very seriously but he prefer not to hurt anyone. Torleif need to get past him if he wants to talk to the Chief, Princess Trinidad and Burga. For his voice I want him to sound like a strict guard with a little tingle of native accent.

Sample line: "I'm sorry, but I can't let you in, no matter what."

Old lady

Just a nice old lady who likes go shopping. She have a very strange problem, she's always afraid to cross the roads in case of cars will run over her (even though there are no cars on Touché Island). When she was younger she was a elementary school teacher and Pepe Roni was one of her pupils.
I want her to sound like a very nice and sweet grandmother.

Sample line: "You're welcome young man."

French Waiter

He runs a gourmet resturant called the Fine Fish in Publo Puequeño. He is not only the waiter and owner of this place, he is also a cook and a disher that can handle such tasks by himself. Many customers come to this place and his best custumor, Angus McArthur, is the one who the other customers follow so they all love the waiter's fine food. I want the waiter to sound like he's born in french so he talks english with a very strong french accent (like Captain Rottingham in CMI or Raoul in Grim Fandango).

Sampleline: What can I do for you, monsieure?

Well, that's all of them. If you're interested PM me and I'll give you my e-mail to send the voice-samples to. No need to hurry, the demo version of the game is still under counstruction (the story and puzzles are finished it's just programming, animation and some backgrounds left).

Right...I need a bg artist, several voice actors, some sprite artists, a guy who can make a decent website, some beta testers, some scripters, a puzzle guy, a forum guy, an advertising guy, and several other people, including a musician.
This is all for the new Peasant's Quest VGA game I'm doind, and I seriously need some help.
Cheers

Hello every here in AGS world,

I am looking for someone who would like to talk about making a game to follow up the events that happened after "Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis". I would like to find someone to work with or just talk for now.

I would like to call it "Indiana Jones and His African Adventures" because when Sophia and Indy are on the german submarine they head for the nearest land which happens to be west Africa.

I am looking for someone to help with my ideas for the art and know some of the tricks of AGS.


If you are interested please PM me. THANKS!!

Hey everyone, I'm wondering if anyone would be willing to whip up a couple of GUIs for my game, Prodigal. Check it out in the AGS games in production forum! I basically need a save and a load GUI created, and possibly an options window with speed and volume controls. I have all the graphics already done, so it would basically be just the coding.

I tried to make 'em myself, but I keep getting weird bugs, and the more I tried to fix them, the more messed up they got...

If you would be willing to help, could you email me at:

real_trisk@yahoo.com

Thanks a million!

Hey everyone. I need someone to help with creating my game dialogue. I dont mind if you change the story to fit my game. My game is Hang's Revenge . I havnt done much on this game so dont worry about anything. The story is about a pirate captain (Hang Greenwood) whose crewmates turn him in to the police. the game is set aound Hang repaying his debt to society as well as hunting down his former crewmates. the 1% of the game i have done so far can be found here (http://www.freewebs.com/thebrat499/Hang1.zip). i will be behind all animation and pics including the GUI. At the moment I'm using the Default GUI while i create my own. I would like to make a team of "first timers" for my game.

Thanks a lot,

p.s if any other first timers were to help in any other way it would be greatly appreciated.

Sprite animators are needed for "Bestowers of Eternity"!

Progress on this game is moving ahead slowly but surely, and we are in need of some more sprite animators to speed things along.  We currently have a system in place where one person designs the sprites and someone else animates them.  This has worked out well because we are able to keep the style consistent while having more than one animator work on the game. 

If anyone out there is willing or able to animate sprites in this style, please drop me a line.

Keep in mind we are only looking for sprite ANIMATORS.  We are not looking for designers at this stage.  Thanks!

Hello everyone.

Just signed up about 2 minutes ago so you've some fresh newb to play with :)

Getting to the point; I've started toying around with AGS trying to make my own game and I think I have a good idea of how to use the program, however I'm just not up for making 3 or 4 small games so get the feel of making games.

I've got a very thin storyline and few backgrounds [Grand total of 2]

I'm basically looking for someone to brainstorm with [preferably on MSN] and someone to give me opinions on my drawings, story and so on - It gets extremely frustrating mulling over the same ideas again and again, so I'd appreciate the help.

Thanks :)

I'm looking for artists for my new game Legend of four castles (title is still in production) If you are interested go to http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=21098.0 for more information.

QuoteLegend of four castles
Life working in a museum with scientists and historians can be interesting at times. It is about to get very interesting when the main character (Franco) hears about a legendary symbol hidden in a castle sealed with 3 elemental locks, which can be opened by keys hidden in three other castles. This symbol will make the museum the most popular tourist attraction in the city as the symbol is said to contain a huge power which can give the possessor an ultimate power that can be used to take over the world. Of course there is no truth to the legend... right? It turns out that someone wants that power to rule the world so getting the symbol isn't going to be easy. It is up to Franco and his colleague, Jane, to get to the symbol before anyone else.

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen

I'm currently looking for a sprite drawing / animating person supreme!

I am planning to do an episodic series of adventure games, similar to the Ben Jordan games. The game will be based in a fictional town, based off Miami in the 80s (yes, like Vice City in GTA :D :P).


A list of what I may require:

• Characters
• Animations
• Objects (can do some of these myself)
• Inventory Items (can do some of these myself)
• Possibly some GUI design (can do some of these myself)

Even though the games will be released free to download as most AGS games are, this will be a paid position (Sorry, not a great deal, i'm a student, but it's an incentive eh?)

If you would like to help, you can PM me on the forums or email me at lechuck@gmail.com , It'd be great if you could have an example of your work or a mock image for the main character in your message, but that is by no means necessary.

Thanks for reading!

Hi!

Any victim...erm...volunteers to test my game? If I don't get rid of the bugs I won't have the patience to work on animations/music/sounds/speech... (yes, they are still missing).

If you feel like trying, PM me and I 'll send you the link.
Thanks

Calling all font designers!

I need the skills of a talented individual who would like to create some fonts for me.  I'll need a couple different fonts, medieval style.

These fonts will need to be original creations and for use in my game only.  You will be credited for your work in the game.  If you're interested in this job, please PM me and I'll provide you with full details.

I need someone to help make backgrounds for a new game i'm making. they need to be medieval like drawings. I would be indebted to whoever can help. I would somehow put you in the game.

 Hey folks,
I'm not sure where to post this and this seemed like the most suitable place.

I am currently writing the script for a new adventure game I plan to have developed.

Plot: You control a group of 4 budding musicians as they complete tasks and solve puzzles during their pursuit of a record label deal. A comedic adventure in the style of the GREAT Maniac Mansion.

The game is meant to be as commercial as possible in terms of graphic and gameplay quality.

I am currently looking for help in the development of this game.

I need the following people:
Talented Character Creator
Background Creator
Animator
AGS Skilled Individual to put it all together in game form.

I can pay for help if you have the right skills, examples of your work and the amount of pay desired.
I am open to either straight pay, smaller up front pay with profit sharing (the goal is to create a shareware title to be distributed through the web, I have contacts with a national gaming network I could get the game featured on). Also list your available time to work on the project.

I need serious people to apply, not fly by night people who lose interest in 3 days.
You will not be paid up front for work due to this reason. A fee will be agreed upon prior to you starting and you will be paid upon completion of the project. Contracts will be used if needed. I have no problem with that.

If you are interested in taking part in this project and or have any advice to offer, please feel free to post here and or email me at mogusland@hotmail.com

Thank you.

Hello!

I am in need of a sprite ANIMATOR for Bob Smith: The Mystery Case. What I need is an animator who can do walk-cyckles, gun drawing, bending-down-and-picking-up and some other small animations.
Right now, there's only one character that needs animation, but there will be more work later. ;)

I'd also like a voice actor for the narrator in the game. Here's a test line:
"Well, Bob, it looks like you've gone WAY over your head this time."
I want the narrator to sound something like the narrator in SQ4 n' 6, but a little bit more serious.

Thanks for taking your time to read this message.

I need someone who could make some fonts for Caribbean Mysteries. Since it's a cartoony comedy pirate game I would like some fonts that is piratey and at the same time a little bit cartoony. Also do something that haven't been used in existing games, please.

PM me and I'll give you my e-mail.

Hi all. I need an image to build a construction on. THis would mean, that I am lacking creativity at the moment, and I need to get a quality castle-front wiev. This (1.) medieval castle would consist of (2.) a wall (of course) with (3.) a huge gateway in it, (4.) two towers on each sides of the door, not too close though. in the inner yard there would be a wooden door directly from the gateway, and a couple of holewindows.(but these I wish to do myself)
   (5.) A dull grey wall o'bricks... the most appreciated thing would be to make it look grandiloquent. Now I don't demand much, but if you happen to get interested, I will take every picture for serious enough and grant you your glory. I'm not setting up a competition, I only need some help. (a muse or something)

Oh yeah, almost forgot: the game I'm working on would be in lo-res, (look at the classics MI1-2 and so on...) under these aspects I'll give you free hands if keen on trying out. Who knows, it might be fun... meanwhile I'll be working on the village....... thanks already. Oh, you can e-mail me or use msn whatever feels better:) (or just PM)

LOVE IN SPACE


a sci-fi opera


Love In Space was originally a theater play. And now a movie: http://jorn.lavoll.no/loveinspace/

And hopefully next, an adventure game :)

What I am looking for first, is one (or two?) person to help me translate the story into a adventure game concept. I've done some skething around with ideas myself.. but I am not a game designer :)

So what we already have to base the game on is a theatre script, a film script and the film.
Plus design sketches from the film production etc, if that is useful.

The film is very inspired by what you can call "BBC style made for TV sci-fi series".


what else... *reads through the guidelines for posting here*

Detailed synopsis..
hmmm.. not very detailed at all:
scientist stationed at underwater reasearch plant dreams of working in space and falls madly in love with a sanitation technician called Quiche and is constantly bugged by chief of administrative affairs Eric and eventually in a love/fury rage builds the Robot uekte to maim his enemies and make women love him :) hehe. hmm.. And then lots of stuff happens.. and the story ends with someone leaving the underwaterplant headed for where everyone dreams of being: moonbase 3 :)


Pictures:
There's some here:
http://jorn.lavoll.no/loveinspace/photos.htm
And more here (inbtween all the text in norsk):

Hi all.

I need some animation of some characters, but it should be REAL simple, because I only need black and white outlines of all the sprites I need.  I estimate about 50 total cells or less needed.

And like I said, these aren't full color, just a white outline, with black interior.

If interested, PM me and I'll give details of what I need.

Credit in game will be given.

I'm looking for a good 3D artist/animator for a Star Wars fangame. I haven't got much of a plot right now, just tghe idea that the main character is a Jedi who has died in battle, but was ressurrected by copying his mind and memory into a centaur-like droid.

I tried to make somemodels myself, but they just plain sucked.

I need an artist who can make low-poly models that both look good and work nice on an old machine (like, a Celeron 333 or something). Being familiar with the Star Wars universe in good, too. Must work with MS3D or another program that supports bone animation. Send me a message if you're interested.

hello.

Would anyone be interested in knocking out a cool midi I can use in my most recent Vegetable Patch game (which I've pretty much finished making now). I will quite happily provide a copy of the game to anyone who's willing to take the task on, so they can get inspired. Basically I'd like something fun and roller-coastery...

I would be super pleased to get PM's from anyone who's interested!

hey. my pc teacher has given us a project to make a game within two weeks, obviously i can't complete my big game project by then, but instead i am making a small game where you use tangrams. i am pretty good at tangrams and find them really fun, but if there is anyone who is really good at tangrams and could give me a few ideas or any help at all really ( we are allowed help from pretty much anyone, which was only the fair thing to do seeing as about half the class have never even tried making a game ) then give me a pm when you can.

I need a couple beta testers to try out the final version of Anna, winner of the One Room One Week Contest.  I've changed and added several things and need a few extra set of eyes to make sure everything is working correctly.  Additionally, I'd like the testers to double check my spelling and grammar, so I'd prefer native-English speakers.

Hello everyone!

I'm in great need of someone with scripting skills.Ã,  See, here's what happened with my game Spooks (check out the GIP thread here (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=21903.0)).Ã,  I pushed to have it done in time for the July MAGS, and managed to finish the art, animations, dialogue, plot, puzzles, and pretty much anything that wasn't the programming.Ã,  I also got an awesome musician to contribute a few MIDIs.Ã,  I entrusted the scripting to someone who put together everything according to plan, and who finished about 90% of it.

Then, he disappeared off the face of the earth.Ã,  I haven't heard from him in weeks.Ã,  I know stuff comes up in "real life" and all that, but it still really stung knowing we had been so close to finishing.Ã,  I couldn't bring myself to look at the computer for a few weeks.Ã,  Finally, I'm ready to work on the game again, and I'd like someone to tackle the programming for me (heh...I'm an art person).Ã,  The good news is that I have a demo of about 70% of the game that shows how everything is supposed to work.

The bad news is that I have none of the code, so it would all have to be re-done.Ã,  But once again, I can give really specific step-by-step instructions as to what needs to happen, and all I need is one hardy soul to work on it.Ã,  Please don't hesitate to send me a PM if you are interested.

Here's a screenie to further entice youÃ,  ::):

Okay, I'm at my wits end.  I considered asking for help a while ago, but I thought I could handle it.  I can't.  I'm making a semi-original RPG battle-system, and there is just one event that will not work.  I've tried everything.  The problem could be just about anywhere in the code, so I need someone with a little patience to help me overcome this one bug.  If you like the look and the idea for the game, it would be cool to have an advanced scripter as a consultant--not to have to do very much work, but simply to be there to ask the occasional question.

I doubt anyone will be available, but just in case, some more details might be welcome.  Basically this system builds on the ideas of the FF6/3 active time battle but combines it with some more combat elements.  You can put any character in defence mode, and then, when attacked, you are offered a list of possible reactions, such as counterattack, block or dodge.  I have set it up so characters can attack and do damage and recieve damage, but for some reason, every time I try to change or fix the counterattack system (it has never fully worked), characters attack a non-existant enemy with 0 hit points.  The problem baffles me because I have not, in days been able to find any possible problem.  It's out there--somewhere, and I think I need some help.

I could show lots of graphics, but the main screenshots would all use template/placeholder graphics right now.

Oh, and please contact at bspeers@nospam.uvic.nospam.ca  -- except remove the nospam.

EDIT: Well, after about a week's worth of work, I think I got to the crux of the problem, and that bit is now solved.  Gave me a bit of confidence, and maybe I can actually do this on my own after all :)

Hey, looking for character animators for the ESPER series. Check my first game (and notice how crappy all the character animations were in it!!!) There are going to be quite a few games in the series I hope, but you don't have to be in it for the long run. I want to keep doing the backgrounds, so check those out and see if you can come up with characters that will work with the backgrounds ("atmospheric," the characters should look lke they belong in a horror movie... desaturization, pale skin, black clothes, lots of shading... the works...). Any interested party either play the first ESPER game or look at the screenshots and try to redo the main character, host it on ImageShack or something and PM me the link. It might be a good thing to have more than one person working on it, since there might be quite a few characters.

Need video animation

If someone would like to make something for me I can offer you some webspace for your game.
It could be in flash too and I will convert it .
Let me know if you want to do it .

OK, I actually read the forum rules this time 'round and I think I know what to do...
I need (more like want) a person to write a story for my game Holidays. I could do it, but I kinda suck at creative writing and don't want to waste a lot of my time on something that I will end up trashing. Here is a basic plot summary so far:

You are a kid who gets locked out of their house on Christmas morning, and your family "accidentally" didn't notice you were outside banging on the door, so they don't let you in. You have to find a key or locksmith to get back inside. But along the way, you discover a multi-murder scene in one of the local businesses and should find out what's going on. That's about it so far.

So far... we have been drawing rooms, programming basic stuff, and adding hotspots and messages and whatnot. I still need a path the character is going to take through the game and an actual story. I also could use a character animator, since as you can tell from our previous games (Hotel Hansen and Halloween); we're not the greatest at drawing people in general. Any help is appreciated, just PM me with what you can provide.

Here is a screenshot of one of the businesses:

Hi everyone. Barbarian here (I've worked on a few Adventure Games such as: Escape from Evergreen Forest, The Great Stroke-Off! and The Elevator).

So, here's the scoop... I've got some solid ideas for my next adventure game (it will be somewhat along the lines of a "survival horror" type of story/adventure, such as Resident Evil, Alone in the Dark, Silent Hill type of games).

** Update:  I'm approching my project in a different way artistically now. I've decided to go with another plot/story-line that I was wanting to pursue anyways, and I will do it with a "3D-ish" type of approach to the background & character art. 
   I figured this would be a good way for me to get a more "realistic" look and feel to my project, as well as making some aspects of it quicker to produce in some ways, as I now have certain resources to do it this way now.
   I've also been fortunate enough to have someone willing to help me with parts of the art (mainly with a couple of NPC characters), as well as an offer from someone else who will later help me with music and sound-effects once I'm a ways into my project. 

   However, if there are any artists out there who can make "3D" looking characters and/or Backgrounds, if they want onboard the project as well, feel welcome to contact me and I'll let you know what are some of the things I may need help with.
   
   Once I'm furthur into my project, I may also be looking for some help in designing some of the GUI and/or Cursor-Icon art.
--------------------------------------------
Ã,  Ã,  Best wishes and thanks.

Within the coming weeks Near the Delta: the Adventure Game will be ready to move from pre-production to actual production; script is done, main character walkcycle is complete, as are several NPC animations and backgrounds.  I also have some very talented fellows working on some music for me, and a cadre of would be voice actors for when the time comes.  Unfortunately I don't know how to program, so I need some help.
Really this shouldn't be to difficult, essentially what I'm looking for is somebody who is experienced with AGS scripting and whatnot, I send you all the backgrounds and animations and you make them do what they need to do.  Alternatively, if there's anybody willing to walk me through it step by step, that would be cool, too.  However I'm not exactly a technical person and it would kind of be like teaching an infant to use AGS. 
All the usual disclaimers apply, don't expect to make any money off this gig, but you will be credited as "Lead Programmer" and, should you so desire, will be a full member of my independent production studio "Uroborosoft" once the website is launched.  The game, by the way, is based on my Egyptian-themed webcomic, see the link in my sig.

 Hi all,
I know you dont see me in this part of the forum much, that's because i havent really gotten around to doing anything tech-y for the game yet. As I'm well on with the artwork for the game now, i'll sooner or later be looking to get the scripting done, but there's a problem in the way that

a) i have no PC (i have limited access to one but i wouldnt be able to get massive amounts of time in on it)

b)I have no real experience with AGS as a programming tool (ive had a mess with it, but nothing serious)

I am computer literate, and i tend to pick things up quickly, but i'm looking at the possibility of getting a coder (or maybe coders) on board for help with the scripting side of things, in order to speed up the process of actually getting this game going. If anyones interested just PM me, but i must ask that i'd really only like to take experienced coders on board, as i want the project to be of the highest quality.

If you're interested let me know, this wouldnt have to be a full time project, and i'll be doing some bits and pieces myself. All those involved will be credited fully, so as i said, if you're interested, or even want to just ask about anything regarding the game just let me know.

Cheers

Dan

Hi everyone!

I am quite new here but have been lurking the boards for a year or maybe even two. I am in need of help with my new game which I don't really like to expose to much of. I am seeking a scripter for the game because right now everything is going far to slow and if my demo should be out soon I must get someone to script for me.

Everything in the game is so far made by only me. And for those of you who thinks I am a person who makes rainbowcolored MSpaint games, you are wrong. ;)

I will happily send some BG's, Music, Sprites etc. to those who want's the job. So come on and send me some replies, as long as your a better scripter than me, your taken! :D

Hope to hear from anyone soon!

I need some music that is adventurous, and would be good for a game
like Medal of Honor or XIII.
Thanks,
looking forward to some great tracks.

Hi! I'm not sure if this post should be here, but I do need help.

The thing is that I don't need help with a game though:

I'm building a website-portofolio and I'd like to have some pictures of me in the site. The problem is that I don't know anything about photography or photoshop and I don't know anyone who messes with photgraphy. Note that I'm looking to do something of high quality and professional.

So, I need someone who likes photography and has been doing this for some time to take my ugly face some pictures. Of course, since I live in London, this person should be living in London or the surrounding area. I don't care to travel some 50 miles, but no more than that.

Contact me either by PM, or by e-mail at nikolasideris@hotmail.com

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Help needed for an RPG set in an original high-fantasy-style world.
I've got some tunes down and am currently scripting an intricate battle engine visually a cross between turn-based console RPG battles (such as Final Fantasy) and Heroes of Might and Magic, except much more complicated.

What I need is:  BACKGROUND ART,   SPRITES/ANIMATION.

The scary part:
The depth and scope of the project. I have already made single-frame sketches for over a hundred creatures, plus six character races, each in male/female versions. They'll all need to be colored and have battle animations. Characters will also need walking animations. The game world will be VAST so I'll really need backgrounds produced en masse.

The reassuring part:
Let's confine this to 320/240 screen resolution. The sprites are rather small and the animations simple. At this scale very few frames can be used and the movement will still seem fairly smooth. As for backgrounds, I don't care if landscape objects such as hills and trees recur as they are pasted again, as long as each screen ends up different overall. So basically if you make good-looking medieval houses, cave walls, castle walls, bits of desert, swamp and tundra, they can all be mixed and matched and used ad infinitum.

I think this project will prove FUN TO DO gfx-wise.
If you're interested, send or link me to samples of your work.

e-mail: tongue@isdn.net.il
MSN: Moribuns@yahoo.com

Okay, I have a favour to ask of the musically talented out there.

I'm doing my game's music (Gift of Aldora) but the theme song was going to be composed by a good friend of mine because I can't manage orchestral things. Long story short, he can't do it and I need it by the end of the month. So, I'm forced to "let him go" (in a nice way) and hope that somebody here has an interest in composing a piece for me.

I've already made the melody and I know what I'm after so there isn't too much creative license here, I'm afraid. There's still a lot of room to put your own stamp on the music and make it how you think sounds best, but yeah... I just don't want any deviation from the tune I created because I have my little heart set on it.

The tune is here: http://kinoko.futariba.com/misc/gametheme.mp3

Basically, I need this to be somewhat epic, orchestral, and angelic. Think of classic angels, and please use trumpets/horns/that sort of thing.

I don't need this to be lengthened, (though a few seconds on the beginning or whatever won't kill me) and I want to keep roughly the same tempo. This music is times fairly well to match where it plays in the game so I can't have much deviation, if any.

Of course, you'll get ample credit in the game and my eternal gratitude. I can pay you a little if you'd like, but not much because I was originally getting this for free so I haven't budgetted for it. It's very important to realise I'm EXTREMELY fussy so even though it may well be the most beautiful piece of music ever, if it's not what I want, I won't use it. I want it to sound nice, but not TOO nice because it needs to fit in somewhat with the style of music I'm already using (see the first post in this thread for examples: http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=15608.new#new).

The deadline is the 30th at the latest, so Im afraid you'd have to work fast too.

If anyone's up for the challenge, please PM me ^_^ THANKYOU!

Hiya!

I need these positions in my team. If you think you are qualified, please send a pm.

Colorist
Giving color to an image is like giving it life. This position is responsible for digitally coloring the finished pencils.
The message an image delivers, and its final aspect will be different according to how it is coloured. The theme is The Middle Ages... think castles, think knights.
Also shading is a very important part of the process and can change the way the image looks.

Pencil Artist
Background pencils are what the player will first see. Each screens look and feel is determined by the pencil artist. The previous theme is valid here too.
You will be responsible for creating clean background artwork based on existing concept sketches and design notes.

Ciao!

I'm putting out an audition for the part of Peter Reeve, the main character in STRANDED.

(See http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=23155.0 for details on the game)

If anyone fancies been in it, then send me a ZIP containing a load of JPG's of yourself in a plain white shirt and dark tie, trousers and shoes and in various walking frames. You don't have to walk left AND right. Just walk one way or the other as the image can easily be mirrored.

This is what I'll need if you're interested: -

- Frames of you walking from left to right
- Frames of you walking to AND from the camera
- Frames of you bending down and pretending to pick up something like a key
- Frames of you from the side pretending to open a door

Snapshots must be 640x480 and of a reasonable quality.

SERIOUS applicants only please as I might need a few more shots later.

Your name would obviously be featured in the credits.

My email is:

darrenjohnson@onetel.net

Here's a picture of me - I'm not in a suit or anything but just want opinions on whether or not I could pull it off myself, I don't think I could personally:

For the game A Tale Of Two Kingdoms, we're looking for beta testers (and if possible, an additional sprite artist). It's a full-length Sierra-style game nearing its completion.

See this thread for details: http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=21872.0

Hello, peoples.  I know we're really not supposed to be posting looking for staff-types, but I wanted to find like-minded people who have the skills as well for a project.  The project is a sort of Harry Potter RPG.  I have a big long texty file with all of the info that I will send to anyone [seriously] interested.  I'm not a good forum-fly, so sorry if this sucks!  I can be contacted via e-mail at angulique [at] aol [dot] com.  Thanks!

I need some help on a game I'm making entitled Demonic Deuce. Specifically, in the animation and background areas.

In Demonic Deuce, you play the role of a recently enlisted demon who must learn about such things as what a tokijoshinaemofaki is, how demons have sex, and why in Satan's name he has no shirt.

Yup, that's right. Evil-humor.

I'm not starting this with nothing...OK, so I've only done one sprite.(It's in the Critic's Lounge, if you want to see it), but I've done a basic talking animation for it. I'll need animators for walk cycles and some poses, but besides that the animators won't have much work. For the background artist, I'll supply a basic outline, with text describing what each part is supposed to be, as it can sometimes be a bit ambiguous.

I want people who are at least a little dedicated. I don't want to wait 5 months for some background.

I assure you the final product will be very amusing and fun. Anyone that works on this can request up to 5 musical compositions from me.

PM me with your work if you're interested. Note that it may come down to style rather than quality.

Hi!

Some of you may know that I'm trying to make a website/portfolio, about me and my music. I was counting on somebody who turned out that couldn't do it...

I have a very firm idea of what I want in, and most probably this involves flash. If you search a little in the forums you will found some examples of my music, so that you will know the quality of my composing.

Anyone interested PM me or e-mail me at nikolasideris at hotmail.com and I will send all the details to you...

Nikolas

Hi hi, I'm looking for a little help with backgrounds and character art. Oh dear, not THOSE two jobs - again! Ive worked on sketches but I'm useless at using a mouse as a drawing tool, and I'm useless at using my useless drawing tablet, too. I have asked a couple of people for help with this but that hasn't happened. I'm interested in finding someone who is genuinly interested in helping me release some frigging thing into this community, because I'm loosing faith - and you certainly aren't going to see FoY for a good year or so.

The project is BROKEN GLASS, a rem-make of one of my first major adventure games originally created in QBasic. Back then, I had to make the engine too - and struggled with artwork in QBasic. I was going to remake it again in QB not so long ago, but gave up on that idea and decided now to work with AGS and (hopefully) find someone who would be interested in working on the art.

These are the sketches

(http://screen7.co.uk/junc/broken_glass_sketches1.jpg)
(notice the pieces of food direct from Greece!)

I'm looking for a realistic style, the game is a "detective fairy tale".

If you'd like more information or would like to show me some interest, please do get in touch :) In return I can offer you music, and should you produce some high quality work of the above sketches, I should be able to offer you other incentives (like mular) to conitnue. BUT IF YOU DISAPPEAR AND NEVER RETURN I WILL HATE YOU FOREVER! ;)

:P

Hi

I need a french native speaker to pronounce some 120-150 words for a (not strictly) game.

Hello all. I am going to start work on a COLDWAR/SOVIET UNION set game. I will be doing all the art but would like someone to help with technical work and to develop the story. Cheers. PM me or

Email=xwishuwereherex@yahoo.com

aim=x1000teartrailx

I would be interested in some sound effects. If you can record some or know where I can find some I'd be glad if you helped out.
At the moment, I particularly need

1. animal sounds:
a cat, preferably one in danger or in another uncomfortable situation
a barking dog who wants to defend his home no matter what ...
and maybe a cry of an eagle or another bigger bird.

2. the sound of the sea
on a normal day
and on a very stormy day

if you are interested, pm me  :)

thanks

I'm making the game called Quest of Life, I have realised that drawing graphics has taken the majority the time I've spent on the game and I'm really not that good at drawing. So now I ask for your help with the graphics.
I need:

-Help with drawing animations.

-Someone to help drawing more NPCs.

-Some voice actors later perhaps.

-I also need SFX and music.

Here is the link to my game
http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=23730.0
I will still be drawing graphics myself to preserve the style.

You can PM or MSN me if you want to help, we can then get into the details.

Thanks

Hey I need help with the side views of my character (left and right). I can send you the front of my character if you post your e-mail here.

Thanks.

Need help with writing the script for a game. Requesting experienced writers who know how to write comedic scifi and/or puzzles and/or good with dialogs. I started writing this game over a year ago but i'm still stuck in the script cause i don't know what to do. please help. you are my only hope. if you're interested, PM me.

I need a Male voice saying
"I have not found the beast yet but I fear that If I don't there will be another killing"
Wav or mp3 is fine . thank you got it.

I am making a game where the total and complete basis is breakdancing (think Dancing Stage meets Bring It On), anyhoo, i need a couple of R n B tracks, some pop, and about 1 or 2 rock tracks. If you have any music that fits this pretty open for interpretation criteria, PM me.

Alright, my turn to ask for help...
http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=24291.0

I've just started work on a new murder investigation/courtroom game (very much like the Nintendo DS' Phoenix Wright), and am hoping to put together a demo over the coming weeks and months comprising of one complete murder case.

To do this, we need:

A background/character artist

For the demo, a number of still, 800x600, 32-bit colour interior scenes are needed, as well as some courtroom scenes. Secondly, while the game won't be using any traditional character sprites, a number of drawn characters (with just a couple of frames of animation) will be needed. No knowledge of AGS or anything apart from artwork is required.

If you're interested in taking on this role, PM me and we'll get talking about the project. Hope to hear from you soon!

I'm making a game here, but i am no musician so i need someone to help me with that part. If you are interrested, PM me. Here's (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=24090.0) a link to the game. Also, i might need help with character animation, just to mention it. I don't need it now, but just so you know.

Hi,
I'm making an adventure game. The puzzles/dialogue of the game, and a little about it, can be found here: http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=24342.0
This is my first adventure game.
I can do some of the art, but not all of it. I particularly have trouble with backgrounds and people (and other things)
So, I need some artists. I want the art to be a little like MI1 & MI2, or MI3. Or prefferably somewhere in between there, but feel free to do whatever you want.
I also am kind of stuck in the story. I want more puzzles and dialogue, but don't know what to write next. So you can write dialogue and puzzles if you want.
I know how to use AGS and everything, but I don't know any languages (Well, except english and pig latin, of course xD) or anything, so you could do that too.
My brother is doing some of the music, but if you know how to do music, you can do that too.

I have begun work on Karl the Karmite: Bad Karma (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=24555.0) and I am doing the graphics, animation, and programming myself. I will need help with music and sound effects though so if anyone would be willing to help please contact me via PM. Thanks a ton.

I won't accept anyone as my official music makin' partner until I have more of the game done though, but I'd still like to see who would be interested in the project.

This request was last updated 01/22/06 and still stands as active. However, two forum members are already interested.

Hello Potential Team Members :)

Basic Plot Summary:

'' You awaken within a dimly lit prison cell. Paint is peeling. Metal rusting. Looking around you recall a few brief flashes of what you was doing before you awakened within this place. You didn't bring yourself here and from the looks of things you're new occupancy hasn't been been home to another resident for quite some time. Many in this situation would have only one thing on there mind, escape. You on the other hand want answers to the questions that are created with every glance.''


Required Help:

Character Artist and Animator: I can complete the game itself before any of the sprites are actually made which is what I have been doing thus far. I'm not asking for somebody to jump in and knock me out the art I need in a few days. I understand that Pixelling is a very time consumeing process and I would be happy with anything that could be completed in under two months. I ask anybody that has a slight interest in the project and the ability to help out to send me a PM or contact me via other means to discuss the project further.

Soundman: I need somebody that can help collect and perhaps implement sounds. Ambiences,music tracks and sfx's all need to be collected and added to the game.

Game Thread: http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=24657.msg307084#msg307084

EDIT: This game slumbers on an unreachable pc...

Hey all,

Yes, I'm still plodding away on Buccaneer 2! After my short crisis at the beginning of the year I've now resumed work. So far I have the skeletal version of the introduction + Day 1 completed. There's still a LOT of fine-tuning to be done, though, before I can call those areas of the game finished and move on to Day 2. Since there are 5 in-game days, it's a lot of work.

I am currently looking for the following people to help me out:

* A sprite-artist.
It's no secret that I paint over the Fate of Atlantis sprites for Buccaneer 2. I am very bad at animating my sprites so I'm working with Scummrev and grab whatever I can... However, it would be wonderful if there's someone in the community who can sprite well in a 320x200 environment and is willing to work with me on Buccaneer 2. It would speed up development to no end!

* A cut-scene artist.
I had a cutscene artist, a really good one, Regnum Eternum. He posted here once and we had some email contact but he slipped away from the project as far as I can tell. If I'm wrong, please contact me!
However, I'm looking for someone who can draw still images in 320x200. Close-ups of faces, some environmental shots. We're looking at 5 to 6 full-screen images, which I will break down to create comic-book like cutscenes and an introduction sequence as seen in Gabriel Knight 1.

Thanks for reading, and I hope to hear from people!!

Regards,

Jaap

Hello

I've just finished my Game "Clip goes to town" and before I upload it to Comlpeted games announcements I'll need a proofreader who could check the misspelling.

(Game is about one guy who goes to town to buy car shampo. He gets into trouble and he's frieand has to help him out. By the way It is short game).

If you could help me send me PM.

I'm looking for a background artist who would be willing & able to produce one background a week/fortnight for an exciting AGS related game. By "AGS related", I mean the game involves itself around the community - but is set in an interesting location. My history of game releases may be slim but this in one project I would never let slip. It's fun, inventive - and may leave much room for people to build on in the future a bit like RON.

I'm willing to consider any styles, and in any resolution. It would be a small to medium sized game to begin with. This game will not have a website, forum & no-one will know about it until its release. It is NOT a fan-game or a sequel! :P

If you're interested, please spend some time working on a picture of a carnival and send it to me by PM or to mark at screen7.co.uk ! If you would prefer, I can draw sketches for you to work from. If that is the case please let me know but I would still like to see a sample of your art based on a carnival (street or field).

I'm also looking for character artists & animators for this project. Do get in touch if you'd like a little more information, too. If I don't hear from anyone then I'll probably just announce what the game is about - but if you want to be part of a special release, step forward now!

Without an artist, there is no point in this project being considered. I don't want to give the idea away and I don't want to be left lumbered to do the art myself, because it will be black and white poop!!

Thanks for your time :)

hey everyone!
i am making a game that is sort of a crossover between Blade and Final Fantasy's character Vincent. As you may have realised, the game involves "nastay lil demon vampirez" and killing a hell of a lot of them. Anyhoo, i need the following audio.

* A balls-to-the-wall rock/metal track
* Another balls-to-the wall rock/metal track
* 3 Male Voice Actors
* 1 Female Voice Actor

Thanks, hope to get your replies soon,
Blake.
PS: The game's name is hybrid, set in the year 2218 and the combat style is like the GB,GBC,GBA Pokemon games.

Yo dudes and dudettes,  8)
I started work on an indiana jones game a few months ago. I'll give the basic plot outline here, but you can read the whole plot at www.freewebs.com/yodaman11111/indianajones.htm

Anyhoo, the plot is: Indiana Jones goes looking for the legendary Hand of Midas with his dad (who waits in the plane). Indy meets his old archrival, Roberts, in the cave where he finds the Hand. In the game, there will be two things; give the hand to Roberts, or trick him and keep it. when Indy gets back to the US, Marcus Brody tells him about another artifact, The Cloak of Elijah. Indy wants to look for the Cloak, but his dad wants him to look for the Dead Sea scrolls. indy goes with his dad and picks up some friends on the way. Later on, Indy finds out that the WScrolls tell the location of the Garden of Eden, which you need the Cloak to get to. There are lots more details, but you'll find those out later. Anyways, I need background artists for the game. If you'd be interested, email me at frodomaniac12@yahoo.com or send me a msg on this forum.  Thats all.

EDIT: this game is DEAD.

Because of one of the great AGS members absence (Rui Pires) Knightsbridge Chronicles is without a coder. If you could help, please reply to me because people want this game and my coding is arse.

a small request:
i need a decent walking (footsteps) sound, that sounds reasonably loud and good.
Thanks,
Blake.

i am making two games, based on two books by the famous author Brian Jacques- Castaways of the Flying Dutchman and the Angel's Command. Both game will probably mostly revolve around the second book, with the first half of the game being the first part of the book, aboard the ship "La Petite Marie" and the second part about "The Razan". I am using sprites from Monkey Island 1 and 2 (except modifying them a little bit), and am using some backgrounds from the games also. Could anyone help for some of the naval battle scenes, by drawing animations for different ships moving around and firing at each other? And also I need someone to do a few backgrounds (well I might if there's none that I can rip from a game). I have some original music, so that's no biggie. And I have a few rooms on the game done, so if anyone wants proof, I can give it to them.

the "Revival of MI project" needs a few more artists to fill in the gaps. (one artist too many quit on account of having too little free time for the project)

background artists (coloring/fixing/improving pre-made sketches) are especially welcome.

sprite artists (walk/talk/... cycles, starting from a character sketch) and detail artists (inventory items) are welcome too.

contact me for more info.

thanks, the Storyteller.

sorted thanks for the interest

Hello all.

If you have been reading some of my posts, it's obvious my english isn't all that good.

Therefore I am looking for someone with excellent english skills. someone who knows lots of big words and how to use them. someone who can handle lots of gore and make everything sound even more horrible and disgusting than what it looks like. Adjectives, that's what I'm talking about.Ã,  ;D

I will be doing all descriptions for the game (when you look at something) myself, but I need someone to go over my descriptions.
What I basically need this person to do is convert messages that I wrote into better english. In other words, improve word order, correct spelling, put in better words, make it sound better, that kinda thing. And if you can describe the thing that the main character is looking at better than me, that would be great.

the game is in a very early stage, but i would like to send messages to the person as i finish them. In other words, you won't receive all messages at once, but over a long time span.

Sub-script: Remember, I only want someone with really good english!

pm me if you want to help.

you have to be older than 17. sorry, but the game is really not for kids nor sensitive people.

Oh I'm sorry...I thought this said Recruit the A-Team... :P

I suppose the only thing I might really need help with ATM would be music, but that's probably a ways off.

I have an idea for a small game I would like to make, but this time I want the graphics to look good.

All I need is someone or someones to make some backgrounds and sprites.

Really there will only be 1 background.Ã,  It's the dining room/kitchen of a typical house.Ã,  There are 4 main characters: Mom, Dad, Daugther, Son.

There will also be a dog, and a few extra other "minor" characters.
The animations are pretty basic.Ã,  Animations like all the characters sitting, walking, eating, talking while sitting and standing, the dog does some basic dog things, the mom is cooking at one point.

I will also need some icons, cursors, and other simple stuff too.

I don't have the script fully written, but if I can get an artist to do these things for me I can write up the script in a day and all that's needed.Ã, 

If I can get to it, I'll write the script up to hand over to artists.Ã,  But in the mean time it's a low priority since I have no artist.

Please PM if interested.Ã,  I really don't see this taking long.

I'm making (and remaking) the Indiana Jones Trilogy of graphic adventure games. The ganes will be in the  same style as LC (including all the graphics). For the LC remake, I am having a talkie version, and so I need voices for that. I need one or two good bg artists and I will probably do the new characters by myself. I also need someone to program into the game a fighting system; an updated fighting system from the old games (in which you can kick and do various types of punches and all that). I probably will tackle LC first, so whoever is doing voices needs to PM or email me. My email is frodomaniac12@yahoo.com

A Tale of Two Kingdoms (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=21872.20) is holding auditions for voice actors.

Interested parties can apply at our forums (http://www.taleoftwokingdoms.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=4).

(http://www.taleoftwokingdoms.com/images/shot3.png)

I am looking for someone who is willing to help with writing descriptions, dialogs, etc. I want someone who can write in a nice descriptive way for describing locations and who can make dialogs have a great sense of personality.  If anyone is interested, have a look at my website below in my signature and email me at xenogiagames@hotmail.com

I am looking to start a project ... maybe I'm crazy and stupid, because I'm offering something unusual here ... characters and a script in search of a programmer ...

But it can't hurt to ask, so here goes.

I'm usually a filmmaker, and artist. I made games for fun with Click & Create, which became IMSI Multimedia Fusion, and got very good at it, but that was years ago.

Like most of you, I'm an old-school Lucasarts obsessive. I discovered AGS a few years ago and was startled by its awesomeness.

I even did a quick demo of a game which was a sequel to a movie of mine, "Excaliburger." This demo is quick and nothing interesting - just one room and a funny conversation with an NPC.

http://orangecow.org/1media/ags/spanky/spanky.zip

I did a few other demos - I was helping out on a Sam & Max sequel before it went under - and did animation for a game based on my comic strip, The Sugarhigh Crusade, which ran for 5 years in the USC newspaper and won a few awards.

(http://orangecow.org/sugarhigh/sugarhighcasttop.jpg)
The Sugarhigh Crusade.

I wanted to create the next Sam & Max, y'know, take some really strong, funny cartoon characters and just write and riff a really funny story around them.

Problem is, I'm a Mac man. I have been for quite a few years now, and in doing so I gave up stuff like Click & Create and AGS.

So I never went through with a demo even.

But I would kill to see some of my characters translated into videogame form.

At the moment, I'm working on an animated pilot called The Chosen Ones ...

(http://orangecow.org/chosengrandpa/codyandjulietsm.jpg)

It's about a bunch of twentysomething slackers (a girl, two guys, an alien and a robot) who have to save the world from alien attack.

(http://orangecow.org/chosengrandpa/codyandjuliet2.jpg)

I won't clutter this up with pictures, but here are some character drawings - clicky.

http://orangecow.org/chosengrandpa/rex.jpg
http://orangecow.org/chosengrandpa/rowenanewsm.jpg
http://orangecow.org/chosengrandpa/jefferson2.jpg
http://orangecow.org/chosengrandpa/lionel.jpg

The double-length pilot script is here - it covers the first two episodes and is an hour long.
http://orangecow.org/1ocp/Chosen%20Ones%20Pilot.rtf



What would really interest me would be to work on an adventure game loosely based on this pilot script. Something cheeky, eccentric and funny where you control a different one of the main characters at different times - a sort of DOTT scenario (I always took the Sophia option in FoA).

   A huge amount of artwork has been done of these characters of course, since it's a TV pilot in progress, and oddly, the pilot and the game have similar requirements in terms of artwork and writing - could be done at the same time.

    So basically, if you're interested in this idea, I'm offering it to any programmer who can run with it - I'll do the sprite art and the script (especially for branching dialogue), and you and the team can just have fun with the concept and make a game of it as you see fit.

   An odd way to make a game, but it will obviously be much more cinematic, and more of a living cartoon, than any game would be otherwise ... very DOTT.

    tygerbug @ yahoo.com is my email address.

I am looking for for someone to do the music and sound for our Indiana Jones game.

The music/sound should be last crusade/foa -style

To apply send mail to contact@indylc2.com, aswell as an sound/music sample that you have done, if you want to join our team.

Well, although Gift of Aldora has a long way to go, and I have so little time to work on anything personal... I would like to make a start on Cirque de Zale 2. I did the first game all on my own, and I'm happy I did that because it was a learning experience. However, that learning experience has taught me that to pull of the sequel the way I want, I'm going to need to share the jobs around. I'm not a music maker, and I'm not a background artist, among other things.

So, what I'm after, and there's no hurry because I won't be deciding anything in the next couple of days, is:

- A Background artist
- Someone to write the music

That's it for now, I think. I think I can handle the story, programming, sprites, animation, etc... might possibly be needing an animator, if not. Dunno.

But, if anyone's interested, please feel free to show me your stuff ^_^

For the record, being that it still is a Monkey Island/etc tribute, I'll be looking at doing this game in a higher resolution (340x400 perhaps), and it'll be longer and just spiffier all-round.

I'm looking for a story editor!

I don't need someone right away -- I'd like to have a finished script ready to go before I seek feedback, but I don't want to try the C&C forum where the script could become "widely public."

Any assistance, from taking the story in new directions to simply tweaking dialog and looking for plot holes, would be appreciated!

Full credit, but no pay, unfortunately.   ;)

Project has been on hold, due to lack of time. If and when I manage to get it going again, I'll edit this.

I have a (short but sweet) game called 2010: World of Chaos. I am releasing two separate games, one with talkie, and one without talkie. I have completed the game and I need some people to be voices. If anyone wants to do any voices (they can do as many as they want) email me at jttobin@rapidnet.net and send me some lines (just say for your line "I'm going to be in the game 2010" and put in the email as the subject "2010 game"):
DAVID SMITH 
This is the main character. Anyone can be him, unless their own voice hasn't changed, or if they have an annoying voice. Oh, and no girls playing this guy  :P
TYSON (robot)
This is the secondary character. Preferably a robotic sounding voice, but any will do.
THUGS
There are three thugs in an alleyway. One should be a German accent, and the other two should have ney york accents.
POLICE CHIEF
New York accent.
AL FAHAR-SHAMRA
The leader of the terrorist in 2010. Iraqi accent, or British accent.
SECONDARY TERRORIST
Iraqi accent.
AIRPORT MAN
Regular voice.
TOUGH SHOP OWNER
Heavy New York accent.
OLD MAN IN NEW ZEALAND
AUstralian or New Zealander accent, preferably played by an old person.
MECHANIC IN NEW ZEALAND
I picture this voice to sound like Moose from the Archie comics. Duh, I dunno :) Anyone can do this voice.
INFORMANT
Tough guy voice.
COMPUTER IN SPACE
There's a part where they are about to go in a space station. Computerized-sounding.
GUARD
Just a small part. Rough voice, stormtrooper-ey.
   

Hi

I am working on The Family Treasure 2 and need help with one thing:

lineart

Someone who can design and draw the bgs in 320x200 black on white, I'll do the clean up and the colouring. Style is cartoony. I have the basic bg design of course, but I need someone who do the actual game lineart and make it interesting and add detail of things that might fit (i suck at that).

The game is about 3 acts, roughly 30 bgs. I have done the first few backgrounds myself, but I'm having troubling doing lineart for the more detailed bgs with only my mouse  :-\ And I want it too look good haha.

If someone is interested please PM me :)

Hello!
Looking for team members for a relatively secret project that is just about to launch.
The project is a fairly extensive one, so only read any further if you are willing to spend a lot of time and efforts.

What I'm looking for:

Assistant background artist
You will work pretty much like I do, build up backgrounds either from scratch or from concept sketches. You will be able to emulate my style and will send me a work sample to prove this. You will also help me improve my backgrounds and provide c&c.

Assistant sprite artist, animator
The same applies here; I work hard in this area too, so you will be able to work from my designs.

Assistant writer
The plot is already largely written (there is a design document of around 7 pages) but you need to help me work out puzzles and dialogues. You must be very fluent in English, and have a talent for epic story telling.

I have already begun drawing backgrounds and sprites, and all major plot elements are worked out, so it's just for you to jump into production.

If you have sample material, please attach it to your PM when you apply.

im taking a break from my big project (signature) to enter the MAGS.

i need about 5-8 midi songs.

so if any musicians has some time, and are willing to help, could you please pm me. ill give you the themes of the locations.  ;D

Would anyone be interested in making Survival- my zombie game an online ags co-op games just curious

I am currently working on an AGS game about the hit television show "24" starring Kiefer Sutherland. Here are some of the details:

Note: If you watch "24", this game takes place between seasons 3 & 4

Story: President John Keeler authorizes a CTU squad lead by Jack Bauer to enter Bandar Abbas, Iran in order to capture and interrogate the religious leader of Hezbollah, Hakim Fawwaz. After a successful attempt, Jack Bauer soon learns of an upcoming terrorist attack being implemented by the leader of Hamas, Rafik Dahwar. Dahwar has gathered a group of faithful insurgents to help take control of the government building, in Los Angeles, that houses the President. But CTU thwarts this attempt, and the President is able to be snuck into an underground bunker by the Secret Service. Now Dahwar is sitting on about a hundred hostages and is making demands. He also has a man trying to break into the President's bunker. CTU sends in Jack Bauer to infiltrate the government compound and take out the terrorists before the President is put into extreme danger. But this is just the start of a very long day...

I plan on making a very complex game. It will cover a 24 hour period as does the show. There will be many cutscenes showcasing the government subplots. You will play as Jack Bauer and some others which include: Skip McMahon, a CTU field agent that I have created, Chloe O'Brian (only as part of high-tech computer mini-games), and others. The majority of the time, you are Jack Bauer. The cutscenes usually will feature cool dramatic effects like a full-motion video of Bauer shooting a terrorist in the head. Other cutscenes will focus on the government, mostly on the Vice President's executive decisions, since the President can't carry out his duties underground.

There are two major villains in the game:

Rafik Dahwar: He is the religious leader of Hamas.
&
Ivan Yakov: A former Russian soldier who plots a chemical attack.

I will be featuring many characters:

Jack Bauer, Irene Kennedy (CTU director), Curtis Manning (from Season 4), Tony Clark (a CTU demolition expert), Jordan Rostein (a CTU demolition expert), Charlie Wicker (an expert sniper), Skip McMahon (a CTU field agent), Kathy Jennings (a CTU computer analyst), Marcus Dumond (a CTU analyst/hacker), Edgar Stiles (from Season 4), Chloe O'Brian (from Season 3 & 4), Hakim Fawwaz (terrorist), Rafik Dahwar (terrorist), Sadek Danawi (one of Dahwar's henchmen), Bakkir Aswan (one of Dahwar's henchmen), Tawfiq Haddad (one of Dahwar's henchmen), Ahmad Fawzi (one of Dahwar's henchmen), Siraj Shareef (one of Dahwar's henchmen), Ivan Yakov (Russian terrorist), Nika Sashenka (Yakov's recruit), John Keeler (president), Ellen Morton (secret service agent), Russ Piper (DNC chairman), Valerie Jones (Keeler's Chief of Staff), Aaron Pierce (secret service detail leader), Charles Logan (vice president), Dallas King (Logan's Chief of Staff), Marge Tutwiler (Attorney General), Alex Tracy (Secret Service director), Bill Schwartz (NSA director), Ben Fine (Mossad colonel), Sally Burke (President's secretary), Mike Novick (Logan's Chief of Staff). Harrison Flood (General), Sid Slater (rogue mercenary), Anna Rielly (FOX correspondent to the President), Stone Alexander (ABC correspondent to the President), Milt Adams (former Secret Service agent), Sheila Dunn (ABC TV reporter), Tony Almeida (imprisoned), David Palmer (former President), Kim Bauer (Jack's daughter), Coy Zalack (communications expert)

A LOT OF PEOPLE, LIKE I SAID. MOST OF THESE HAVE LITTLE PARTS THOUGH

I need help with creating character sprites for these characters. Some animations (walking, mostly) for the major characters like Jack Bauer. I need some scripting help. Some of the elements of the game, like shooting a gun, isn't known to the average game creator. Animations for pulling out a gun, shaking hands with a NPC. I also need help with some great backgrounds (like for CTU, government building, bunker, streets of Los Angeles (don't actually have to be LA streets, but urban streets), some other backgrounds)

I know this is a lot to ask for, but it's necessary for the greatest possible game. If ANYBODY can help, it would be appreciated.

If interested: avalanche_5874@hotmail.com

I am making a fantasy game called the Forest, and needed some help with it. The storyline for the game is pretty long and is too long to tell here. If you are interested in working on this game (in story development, backgrounds, music, puzzles) then PM me. Or, if you want to know the storyline, PM me.

I need some help with a game that I hope someday will be one of the greatest games made with AGS. I allready have a storyline but I dont want to reaveal it yet. I just need someone who can draw good character sprites. Please help me by sending one sample of a character made by you. (a simple walk animation from infront of the character and from one side will be enough)

Greetings to all you!

Since many people are asking more and more I need to modify something.

I'm not the casual member of this forum, I'm actually a present representative of the internet company PineApple Incorporated -- HT.

Me and my friend, co-President of the company, are in developing of a new cool full-length game (I hope so) called "Sybilla's Adventures".

The plot. A girl named Sybilla wants to become a pop-star. So she needs a producer. But she's very ugly and that's why all this becomes a quest for her. Then she reveals information that her producer is an evil demon who wants to run the Earth into simple and silly pop. So she needs to destroy him.

The game will be full of humor and irony, so the plot won't be too serious (compare with "Space Quest").

The problem is very simple. We have all we need, except only one thing. We have scriptwriters, we have all the humorists, we have all possible soft connected with computer. But we don't have any graphics. Our aquaintance, Alex, drawed us EGO, but that's all we have.

People ask me, what kind of graphics I need. They say they work in different styles. Simple! Send me an e-mail, I will tell you about one room, you will draw it and then I'll see if you're suitable to our work.

'Course you'll ask why should you do this work. It's simple. Since nobody receives money for his single job, the best prize for our helpers will be membership in our company and of course copyright.

We also will type your Name as one of the creators of the game.

If you're interested in this promised cooperation, send your reply as soon as possible either to

kmudisco@mail.ru

or to

AHB05@mail.ru

Waiting for your message!

Since many people ask me what is all this, I'd like to admit something.

1) The plot.

A young girl named Sybilla wants to become a pop-star. But she's very ugly and needs a good producer. So she finds him and becomes a singer. Then she reveals that her producer is an evil demon who wants to run the Earth into the silly pop. And she needs to kill him.

2) What style are we searching for? Simple. Write me PM or send a letter on e-mail, I will tell you what to draw, you'll draw it and I'll make some conclusions whether you're suitable to us.

3) About links. Since our company is VERY-VERY young, we don't have a website, but in two month, I suppose, we'll make it up.

Hi there!

I'm currently working over a new (first) game.

I can do all the work myself except graphics. If you can help me, or want to know more information, please PM me as soon as possible.

I'll be waiting for your PM's!!!

I have two separate game requests but decided to do them as one post: here's the first game.Ã,  Ã, 
THE FOREST
Beta testers needed for this fantasy game. We need you to just play it, tell us what you think, and point out any bugs.Ã, Just a quick storyline so you can know a bit about it:
A boy named Shaun Kyle has a dream of a forest. He wakes up in the forest. Confronted by a dwarf, he is brought before the king of the Forest, Harthor. Shaun is sent on a quest to find a mysterious book, uncertain of what will happen next...

And the second:
DAVID SMITH: PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR (working title)

For this remake of 2010: World of Chaos, we need some background artists. In case you don't know the storyline, I'll tell it here also:
I'm David Smith, private investigator, on another mission. I've been sent to New Zealand to investigate and hunt down an Iraqi terrorist. I have a bad feeling about this...Ã, 

PM me if you can do either of these things.

EDIT - Removed request, outdated.

Hi all,

well forget about the games I posted thus far, this is the only project I will (99,9999999% sure) continue.

Brief info:
Name: none yet
Type of game: RPG
Genre: Fantasy

I need:
- a bg-artist: to help me clean up my (cutscene and tiled)backgrounds.
- a musician
- maybe other team members as well, I don't know yet...

If you're interested in this game, PM me (no screens, but I do have a backgroundsketch).

~Yurina

EDIT: Read the recent post!!!

Female Voice Needed-

We have two female parts in an upcoming game. The first is an old secretary lady. The second is the love interest for the main character in the game. If you are interested, PM me.

okay, I'm making a sort of Spin-off of the popular King's Quest Games. It has the Sierra style, and quite a few good spoofs.
it's called...DUMB QUEST!!!
Dumb Quest I- Quest for the Town
Plot: Basically this guy named Bob owns a bar in a land called Alphredtry. He runs out of money, and his kindom is bankrupt because it's a crap place to live. So he becomes a knight. He is knighted and renamed "Sir Robert Tavern" and he has to get three items to restore the kingdom to it's former glory.
Robert must face grave perils, go to many odd places, and fight the evil country Anaface (an evil race of people with anuses on their faces)
The game is in VGA and looks kind of like King's Quest V.

Right now I need:
-Sprite Artists
-background artists
-voice actors
-musicians
-cutscene artists
-dialogue portrait artists
-scripters
-and someone to host a decent nuke site for Dogma Day Games.
If you have any talent and want to join, just sed me a PM, and I'll set something up.

Hello all.
As you may know, I've been working on Space Battles! for a few months now, and have come to the point that I need sound and possibly music to make the first real beta (1.0) complete.

Here's the production thread:
http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=25699.0

I need these things presently (pm for more details if you're interested):

-A person to make sound effects (mainly explosions)
-A person to produce the music (space/arcade themed, not very restrictive here)


I hope to get some feedback soon!

-Regards, Akumayo

i had been making this exact kind of game based on lifeforce.  i got pretty far but couldn't get shot fire to work the way i wanted it to.  i'll have to give this a look-see.

I am recruiting a team for a medium-length comedy game I'm creating called "Tholt the Thunderer"

It's about a viking named Tholt who has to save his village from drought by confronting the great sorcerer Meridan. Halfway through the game, after solving a good many puzzles, he meets the sorcerer and piss him off. He ends up freezing Tholt in ice and leaves him for dead...

Centuries later, Tholt awakes in a research lab while a group of scientists are at break. After solving some more puzzles, Tholt escapes the lab and is out on the streets of a city in 2006, and decides to try and get back to his own time...

It will be a humorous, creative, and challenging game that I am asking help for.

I need good scriptors and animators to help me out with this game. If you can help me, then please send me a PM.

Me and some friends are working on an adventure game called The Legacy, it's a classic 2D point-and-click adventure game, and we're looking for any extra artists we can get for:

- Full-screen rooms, 320x200 resolution. Don't need to be too detailed and/or elaborate, as long as the player can tell what's what. :P
- 4-direction characters with basic animations like walking and talking.
- Anything else you can do like inventory items, objects, etc. is always a nice bonus :)

The Legacy is a game set across six distinctive eras and locations around the globe. Play as six different characters as they attempt to uncover the mystery of the Legacy, as well as solving their own personal problems. From ancient Rome to a space station in the far future.

Any staff members will get to try the game in progress (before it's released) and have a look at the design document (unless you don't want spoilers ;) ).

Contact me at supsuper@gmail.com or PM me and you'll get specific details on what needs to be done.

Hi, I just have a small favour to ask of anyone that is somewhat decent at scripting:

What I want is a countdown clock for my game. So the game starts, it starts counting down from the time (which it displays on screen) and once the time is up, game is over. Also some events that occur at certain times during the countdown (display a message at 8:43 for example).

I have found these two topics:

http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=12460.0
http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=17017.0

But cant find anything else, and just cant seem to put it together on my own. If someone could script this for me, and provide instructions on how to put it in my game I would be eternally grateful... AND id provide 100% of the profits my game makes...  :P

But we could also put it in the technical archive to help others...  :D

Recruiting anyone on every possible job for a came according to the classic DAY OF THE TENTACLE and/or SPACEQUEST 7 THE SPINAL FRONTIER style and quality

i need

artists for character animation
and
artists for backgrounds
i can tie all the rest together and do music myself
maybe use a few coders and extra ppl to help me piece together the game really well and build menues and tranzitions....


the game will use a flash intro and hopefully wmv end credits
credit will be given accordingly, the game will be ofrrered as a free give-away game

please offer your help i will inform you of the game upon you contacting me via msn or yahoo messengers : mention ags so i can add you and work with you

Dear AGSers,

for many years, having been inspired by marvellous games by LucasArts, Sierra (including its subsidiaries) and others, I was hoping to one day be given an opportunity to help create such a product. After many battles with various engines (including, but not limited to Klik & Play, Games Factory, AGI Studio, AGS) and graphic tools, I have given up though, pursuing other goals.

Since then, I actually got to make bread by doing what I love - writing. I became a video game journalist, published some comic stories (and this the career I intend to pursue further) and recently, even got a part-time job as a game designer for mobile gaming company (writing titles in Choose Your Own Adventure mould).

I realized, that if I'm to co-create an amateur adventure, I should pursue that goal now, since free time becomes a scarce quality these days for me, and I may not be able to contribute to a non-profit endeavor in the near future.

But my problem still remains. I can't draw. I can't program.

I do have a game system worked out (similar to that of Dynamix titles, yet simpler). My goals are clear, and - I think - quite realistic.

A game that can be finished in about two hours, but non-linear and replayable.

320x200 resolution, 256 colors for both practical and, let's say, nostalgic reasons.

Story driven as opposed to puzzle driven, though the latter will be a major ingredient.

I post here to recruit a team, yet the story is not in place. Let me explain myself, though.

I realize getting people to basically make the whole game is not an easy task. That's why I'm giving a choice of theme.

I'm willing to write an all original tale in a plethora of settings. A fantasy adventure. A futuristic thriller. A modern detective story. I consider myself flexible.

On the other hand, there's no denying a fan-game creates greater interest and may bring stronger motivation to team members. I also propose a license then:

- Rise of the Dragon (prequel or sequel)
- Raiders of the Lost Ark (an adaptation of the movie though, not a tribute to LucasArts games; as I said, I have the game system worked out, and it doesn't include, for example, an on-screen avatar)

On my side, I guarantee a timely delivery of the story outline once the theme of the project is agreed upon and a hasty creation of a full design document, including text for every exchange and interaction possible. I do not intend to lure team members to work off a simple idea - once you will express interest in collaborating, I will cook up the complete skeleton of the game. As you see, there's little risk involved.

The recruiting would take place in a few steps:

STEP ONE

* Finding a coder - to consult the game system and decide if he would be willing to take part in the project.

* Finding an artist - because that position may prove to be hardest to fill, and the earlier the search starts, the earlier will the coder be able to implement graphics in the tech demo.

GOAL: Creating a short tech demo - a sort of a teaser, both to generate interest and recruit more members.

STEP TWO

* Finding another writer, a native speaker, to go over my text; I DO make a living by writing, but English is not my first language (and I apologize for any and all mistakes I made in this post).

* Finding a musician.

* Finding a web-designer, to create and maintain project's web site.

GOAL: Finishing a BETA.

STEP THREE

* Finding beta-testers.

GOAL: Releasing 1.0.

Right now, you can consider STEP ONE to be in progress, and those that will put faith in this endeavor will co-decide what story will be told. Also, after finishing the first draft of the design doc (which, as I said, would be a COMPLETE skeleton of the game, all text and puzzles included), I'd be willing to give the project off to the team-members and witness it being finished from the point of view of a fan it that was the requirement.

I regret that I have so little to show for myself as of now, though most of my publications are in Polish. Still, I believe googling my name will reveal a sample or two of my writings.

Regards, and thank you for all the amazing hours I spent playing AGS games.

Radek Smektala.

This thread may be dying soon, but I'll give it one last chance.
I need an artist to do well, basically all the artwork in my game.  I simply can't draw.

This game involves 2 backgrounds needed, and a good number of animation sprites.  There are 6 people of which 4 will need a good number of animations.  But none of these animations require a lot of sprites...maybe 10 at the most...

pm if interested

Gentlemen,
We at Dogma Day Games seriously need some artists.
We need people that can do the following:
Make Sierra styled backgrounds
Make Sierra styled sprites
Make Sierra styled cutscenes (or at the very least draw them)
We DESPERATELY need these kinds of artists.

Right, posting again (shame on me)
I'm starting a Space Quest III remake as a second project. If you're interested and talented, PM me.

Hey there, fellow adventure-gamers. ;)

I need help with a little something, or, well, a big something actually.
As some of you may know, I'm developing a fan-installment to the FF-series with a friend. The project is going great, and progresses for almost every day.
What we need is a composer, who can also remake songs. We need a composer that can:
* compose entirely new musical pieces with a Super Nintendo-ish feel (songs that sound like they actually came straigh from a Super Nintendo-game, or at least close to)
* remake classic 8-bit songs to fit the 16-bit atmosphere of the game
* and also, though this is not needed, it would be nice if you also could add more variance to the songs that are a bit repetive.
That last one is not a must, as mentioned. If you are intrested in trying out for the 'job', contact me on MSN/hotmail at: Marcus_Belmont@hotmail.com or send me a PM here on the forums. If my ordinary mail would not work for some reason, send an e-mail to VohaulThreepwood@gmail.com.

Thanks in advance.

Hey everybody, I have been working of an indie adventure game for about a year now based on my webcomic Near the Delta, which was a humorous comic about the adventures of Osiris, Isis, Seth, Anubis and the other deities.

The Story: It is set in ancient Egypt during the Amarna period, when King Akenaten came to the throne and decided to kick all the gods out of Egypt in favor of is own brand of sun worshipping monotheism (I am a Classical History major so I will be trying to keep this game as historically accurate as humor allows). The game will follow the adventures of our hero Sed, as he travels throughout Ancient Egypt, Greece and the Mediterranean trying to save the gods.

I am a huge fan of Lucasarts style adventure games, and I realized a while ago that those were a more effective way to deliver my style of humor than a straight comic. What I'm envisioning is a flash based adveture game in an episodic format, maybe once a month, consisting of a few rooms, puzzles and characters each episode. I have a pretty detailed Design Doc prepared for the first couple episodes, and a draft for the next eight after than.

Try as I might though, I cannot wrap my mind around Flash well enough to do what I need to do. So, what I need is someone who is skilled enough with Flash (or perhaps LASSIE) to take my animations, story and voices and put them together as a playable game. I am a Mac user so AGS and Wintermute are not an option.

Of course, if you are interested in contributing to the story/dialogue/puzzles/art/voices that would be great too; no offer for help will be turned away, and any development team I put together will be wholly democratic.

Unfortunately my comic went offline when Gutterfly Comix bit the dust last year. To see some of my more recent art (such as backgrounds and sprites for the game) you can look here:
http://yourhumblecartoonist.deviantart.com

If you're interested e-mail me at helloworldcomic@yahoo.com

Thanks
Andrew

Howdy. Old poster back again, here. I'm a 2D artist-type who has tried to make an AGS game for ages but can't wrap his simple head around the editor. Yes, I'm a sad, sad man.

I'd like to collaborate on a story and game with someone as I am an okay idea man and a pretty okay spriter but can't script to save my life. I'm not looking to have you make my project, but rather to make a unique project together.

You can see an example of the art style I am shooting for here (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=27324.0) or at my sketchblog (http://penguinx.org) in various posts.

I don't want to do a massive, sprawling game, but a few rooms and a few puzzles to get our feet wet sounds good to me. PM me, email me, post here, whatever works for you within the forum's guidelines.

Thanks!

Hi there!

I'm currently seeking some people for the current MAGS-Competition (July/2006). I've started writing a game design document, that is neeeeaaarlly done. So I can provide you with that. I will, too, provide the team with communication and organization.

I most of all need

  * Background artists (about two, agile, artists should be enough)
  * Sprite artists (there are not so many sprites or animations, so one artist should be enough)

If someone wants to bath in the glory a win at MAGS gives you, feel free to contact me (PM or email, see profile) ;-)

Please contact me soon, because the game needs to be ready soon.

Thanks to everyone.

Kind regards,
Dennis

Hello! I as well as Kettlewell have starting production on Horror/Mystery game. At the current moment we have not decided upon a title for the game yet. First I will talk about who we need, and I will also give a little bit of information on the storyline and characters we have developed!

**Who we need**

(** indicates main concerns)
1.**Artists: for backgrounds, characters, character animations, items, and the character sprites.
2. Voice Actors (we are only considering this)
3. Storyline Developers: for storyline development, dialog, puzzles, and character interactions.

**Team Members**

1.Kettlewell: Project Manager, Storyline Devloper, and Coder
2.eternal_renegade: Co-Director, Storyline Devloper, and Lead Composer

**Game Details**

The Plot:

Hi all,

Again, I ask help. I posted for this game before, BUT: it didn't contain any useful information. To be more precise, this time I have. (And I don't think people will search trough this whole thread to check outdated information... ;))

Brief information:
Title: Omaiya - The Land of 2 Layers
Gametype: RPG
Genre: Fantasy
Resolution: 320x240
Colour Depth: 32-bit
Length: Not decided yet.
Deadline: End 2007

The story:

On a far-off island, surrounded by a thick mist, lives a society which has never established contact with the world surrounding it. On that particular island, the society lives on it's own strength. For a long time, wars where never serious, the people lived together and nobody was misjudged. Until these people began building the biggest and mightiest city of the whole island.
The richest people began to develop the idea that they where better. After all, they did design the city, gave the poor the material and knowledge to help and offered residence for free. They decideed to build their own houses and important buildings above those of the poor, so the rich would stand literally above them. The poor agreed, not knowing the consequences. To make even more difference, the rich gave themselves the name Upper Layer, and the poor became the Lower Layer.
In the Silver Age the poor began to realize their position. They became hungry, because the rich began to sap every coin and every nutricion out of them. They began to start-up a revolution in secret. So far, no public battles where fought, but it won't be long until the war would be declared.

Main characters:

Utada: (player, name can be customized)
Age: 19
Gender: Female
She is a mysterious woman who was found in the sea. She only remembered her name. After meeting Daisuke, who saved her, they hear about a resistance-force of the Lower Layer. They decide to join the resistance together.

Daisuke: (party member)
Age: 18
Gender: Male
A young man who found Utada. He took care for her when she was still unconsious. After Utada awoke, they joined the resistance-force together.

Mimiko: (party member)
Age: 21
Gender: Female
A commander in the resistance army. She was assigned to train Utada and Daisuke in fighting, so they could join the army.

Suzumi:
Age: 17
Gender: Female
She was a friend of Daisuke's youth. Daisuke often thinks of her. He fears Suzumi was murdered or arrested after the Upper Layer army found her and took her away from the village where she and Daisuke spent a happy summer. After she was taken away, her whereabouts where and are unknown.

Akira:
Age: 27
Gender: Male
Akira is the leader of the resistance. He isn't seen very often, but every poor man or woman knows his name.

What jobs are available:
Musicians: I can't imagine an RPG without music. I prefer mp3 above midi, but I don't say no against both.
Background artists: I just can't make perspective backgrounds. So I need artists to get me some backgrounds for battles (and cutscenes, if I decide to make some).
Animators: to make some animations for my characters. I have a bit of a problem doing e.g. attacks. You don't need to make every single animation, though.

That's all I can think of right now. If you're interested in taking any of these jobs, PM me, or e-mail to: yurina.x.mireille AT gmail DOT com.

Thanks in advance,
~Yurina

Aya, everyone needs musicians or animators, why not throw my needs in the pot too?

-----------------------------------------------

I just need an animator/sprite artist.Ã,  Being able to make neat tiles is a plus, but not nessesary.

I'm making a platform/shooter with AGS, and I'm horrid at any type of computer art.Ã,  Each character in the game needs 12 frames.

-3 frames walking with gun pointed straight ahead (one standing, two with leg movement, ordered 'standing'/'move1'/'standing'/'move2')
-3 frames walking with gun pointed 45 degrees up
-3 frames walking with gun pointed 45 degrees down
-3 frames with legs pulled up for jumping, each portraying a different gun position

Should you take interest in the job, know that if you can only provide a template of 12 sprites, that is fine.Ã,  And if you can do work for each character needed, that is fine also.Ã,  Either way, if you're interested, PM me.

Okay okay, I stand corrected.Ã,  The project is going better than I expected, and I think the art should compliment that, so I'm asking for something a bit more now.Ã,  The game is a platform-shooter, the engine works nicely and improves every day, but the graphics are holding me back, I suck at them.Ã,  I need a real artist if this is going to go any farther.
The sprites will mostly be very low res, between 20/40 pixels in height/width.Ã,  It will include but not be limited to bipedal soldiers, but crawling and flying ones as well.Ã,  (I hope).Ã,  If you're interested, PM me, but be warned, it will be a while between each character needed, as I'm still working on the story as well as tweaking the engine.
Anyway, think about it if you consider yourself at compatent at spriting.  I assure you, you're better than me ^_^'

-Regards, Akumayo

Need a LucasArts-style pixel artist and a LucasArts-style background artist. Contact via PM, email (penguinofthegods@gmail.com) or MSN (same as email). AIM too (SargeTron).

Well, just wanted to post this information.

We are working over one game. All the plot, all the credits, all the texts are done.

BUT: It would be nice if any BG artist would like to join our team. I have 2 screenshots.

If interested, send me PM.

We're looking for voice actors on our upcoming commercial adventure game Diamonds in the Rough (http://www.atropos-studios.com/diamonds.html).

Financial compensation is offered, previous experience is appreciated but not required.

Native English speakers only, please. Contact us (http://www.atropos-studios.com/contact.html) for details.

Hi!
Desperately needing a character artist and musician.
I've tried really hard to do these things by myself but it only ever results in despair! :(
You will be working on a Wild West style game with , sheriffs and bandits and the like.
I currently have no characters for the game and no music, these are the only things that I am lacking in at the minute so I really need someone to offer me their services. Any help is much appreciated. :D
If you are interested please PM me or e-mail me at andy_lad05@hotmail.com :)

Hi all, I have a game in the making. The plot's almost done and music is on the go; however I need a background artist and sprite artist to help make it a reality. Let's see: I'm hoping for Gabriel Knight 1/Police Quest 3 style VGA art, but at this point I'm not to picky

Plot: The main character is a young police detective with the Tokyo police. One day he is told to investage a drug related murder but upon doing so he uncovers information that leads him to believe that the police department, and perhaps the government itself, is involved in a huge drug ring all throughout Asia. As he gets closer to the truth however, he comes home one evening to find his house in ruins and his family missing. A note is left that says: "If you ever want to see your family again, stop your investigation or you will never see your family again. Their blood will be on your hands. They will die a slow painful death. You have 36 hours!"

So if anyone wants to help make this game possible, please  PM me.

Thank you

I am looking to recruit a team to create a horror mystery game, whose story I have conceived already:

Title: Hallow's End

'Michael Sandon, griefstricken after the death of his wife and daughter in a car crash, is told to take a break. He hopes a short holiday in the town of Hallow's End will ease his pain and his constant insomnia. Yet, Hallow's End hides a disturbing secret. As Mike uncovers the horrifying truth of Hallow's End, he finds himself pursued by the Laughing Boy, a murderous and twisted creature intent on finding him and exacting eternal agony and pain on his body and soul. Mike meets Katherine Keider, also newly arrived, similarly traumatised by the suicide of her husband several months ago but pregnant with a child...of whom the father is unknown. They soon find themselves lost in a world of torment, a world where your nightmares become reality, where your soul is tortured beyond pain and where the innocent are punished forever.

Everyone goes to Hallow's End eventually.'

What I am doing:

*Concept
*Story Design
*Dialogue

I am looking for:


*SFX designer

Positions filled:

*Music Composer: eyeCoof
*Scripter: Akumayo
*Background Artists/Character Designer/ Animators: Lisa & Len Haasbroek, Candles

The game is to be done in a Lucasarts-Golden Age style, point and click.

If anyone's interested - or feels they can assist in ANY other capacity - please email me on markodell30@hotmail.com - This is a horror project I am EXTREMELY keen to launch. I am now in need of some very important staff members I want to see this through to completion, and then hopefully work on some more games.

:: Project

- a political adventure game [in the interface style of sierra & lucas arts titles].

- In this game the player will control george bush and also an activist that wants to save the earth in various ways, by battling starvation, helping the poor etc etc. The player will control one character at a time, and will get to control the other one in the next chapter. What bush does will affect the storyline for the activist and vice verse, i.e. Bush decides to bomb a country in one chapter. In the next we will see our activist dogging bombs and trying to build a shelter.

The game will be ironic and will make fun of both the president and the activist, but in the end it will _not_ make the president look like a nice guy - this isn't conservative propaganda - on the contrary it's supposed to get the people that play it to think and react. If this doesn't suit you, well - welcome to democracy and the land of the free ;)

- you'll only have to draw 2 small scenarios and one character in color and then let me prove that I'm worthy your magic by creating a part of the game with that graphic. If you're happy with the result, you can choose to continue the co-work with me.

- will maybe generate some small amounts of cash once we've finished it, however earning isn't the main point.

- irl will have priority over it and we both work when we can - no deadlines, but still a serious will to finish it, some progress every now and then and continuos communication.

- final game will be available in English, Swedish and maybe other languages.


:: You

- can illustrate without in a style you choose yourself

- either do your thing directly on the computer in whatever software _or_

- get it digitalized

- will, except for the graphics, get to influence and be an equal part of the project in other ways if you wish


:: Me

- University, Sweden, 26 years and plenty of experience when it comes to working with different projects

- Will write the story (with your help if you chooe to) and do the geeky stuff so that becomes a game and all. Also, there story is in many senses already done but could be revised to fit your needs.


:: Misc.

I'm afraid I can't give away more details on the game, concept, script etc since I wouldn't want to get ripped off. Everybody who's interested in applying can contact med at spam(at)eyerouge.com - I also use MSN -> subcodes@hotmail.com

Write a short intro of yourself, experience (if any, isn't a must), what tools you use etc and don't forget to include a direct link to some of your works. I'll then contact those of you who I think are suited and ask you if you'd be willing to do the two sample rooms and the character.

Any questions? Feel free to ask them here or via e-mail.

   Hello everyone! I'm in the search for a script. I want to make a 2D isomeric RPG, settled in a fantasy world such as Diablo or Arcanum, but with elements of classical point and click adventure, i.e., an adventure game in a 640x480 resolution with 2D isometric graphics, with the addition that you can kill some beasts in a very RPG way. The mayor problem is that I'm not a very good story-writer, and (according to me) a bad script make a bad game. To demostrate you that I'm serious, here's a compiled demo of the GUIs of the game that I've made a few days ago. One it's not finished (the status GUI) because I'm seeing the best way to do it. Feel free to try it.
http://geocities.com/sadistyk2000/BaradNur.zip

Note: I suggest you to read the Help file to understand the interface, because it's not a common one.

Okay guys, this is the project leader of Hallow's End (horror-adventure game mentioned a few posts previously) here - I have a full storyline plotted out, I have conceptual image ideas, I have a scripter, I have a composer...If you are a background artist or a Character animator/artist or anyone else who feels they can assist in the art department then I will happily send you the design document. Please give me a hand here, I am desperate to get this project off the ground :)

I would post the total synopsis here, but it's nearly 5 sides and I might get yelled at for posting the whole thing :) So instead I shall post what I consider as 'Act I'

ACT 1 of HALLOW'S END

Mike Sandon arrives in Hallow's End, and goes to a local bar. Once there he discovers that his brother has been missing for a number of days, which seems extremely odd to him considering his brother called him only the day before to tell him to come and stay with him. Those at the local bar seem evasive about his questions at best, but he soon calls a taxi to take him to his brother's house. Waiting for it, he sees a figure disappear into the shadows that looks like his dead daughter. Losing sight of the figure, Mike finds himself lost. The fog clears slightly, and he finds himself standing in front of a fence, with words painted in blood ‘WELCOME HOME MICHAEL'. Then, he wakes up in the spare room in his brother's house. It was all just a very bad dream. A laugh startles him. Going out to investigate, he finds bloody trails leading all the way down to the basement. After successfully unlocking the door, he is also able to turn on the lights.
    He sees the corpse of his brother, speared to the ground with a pike. Horrified, Mike goes to investigate. As he goes to do so, the tall, mutilated and scarred form of the Laughing Boy appears as if from nowhere. Mike runs back to the basement door, but finds the door has jammed. The creature is rapidly approaching him, and laughing. As it gets close, Mike jams the poker into its chest. It temporarily topples over, but it doesn't seem to have done a mssive amount of damage since the creature is starting to stand up again and pulling out the poker â€" when the door flies open and Mike is yanked through by someone, and he loses consciousness.
    He wakes up again, in the living room, in the company of a woman, Katherine Keider. Kate explains that she also came to visit the town, after the suicide of her husband and a miscarriage, and had been told Jon Sandon was a local psychiatrist, and despite it being the middle of the night wanted to rest her mind easy. Finding the door open, she heard a scream from the basement. Mike explains what it was he saw, and asks if she knew. Kate says she doesn't, but that she's been seeing strange things around the town â€" an apparition of her dead husband in the local library. Mike decides to go and visit the library, telling Kate to stay at home. She refuses, demanding to follow him. He has no choice but to let her follow; soon, they are at the local library. It is closed and locked up at that time of night. Kate agrees to wait outside until Mike returns. Mike manages to break in through a first floor window, and finds himself among the stacks. Immediately ahead of him is a trail of pages, leading towards a book. Mike reads the pages. They are the foundation story of Hallow's End by Joseph Teller in the mid 18th century (Possible flashback cutscene?) and how enigmatically ‘the town has always been the last place people go.' The official history also points out how Teller was a troubled man, and in his later days was tormented, and who drove himself to the very edge of his anguish â€" before killing himself by throwing himself off a cliff. Teller's tone seems regretful, as if there was something in his life he should not have done. Mike opts to search for both the reading room, where Kate saw the ghost, and also the journal of J. Teller. The reading room is locked, predictably. Teller's journal is a very old document, but the book is inside a cabinet, that Mike cannot reach far enough inside to read. He opts not to smash the glass. He searches the office, and sees a map of the place. Mike finds the canteen for the library staff, and a brief search of the kitchen reveals tools he can use to turn the pages. Mike reads the journal. Teller reveals how he was tormented by ‘that laugh, which haunted my nightmares and plagued my very existence'....

TO BE CONTINUED...

PLEASE let me know if you want to help on this project on markodell30@hotmail.com

Well, I just wanted to let you know that I need BG artists who could draw in Sierra style. If someone can do this, I'll be very eager to read your PM's.

Hello!
I am looking for any information on voice actors for my game www.indylc2.com ! Are you a good voice actor? Or do you know someone that can voice act? Send a mail to contact@indylc2.com and I will send you a line that you should record for test aswell as a list of possible characters.

I'm not usually one to post in topics like this but I have only a very small request so if somebody could contact me in PM about it or catch me on IRC that would be amazing thanks.

I'm working on a very short game to pass the time over my holidays, I can handle scripting, music, backgrounds and all writing, puzzle making and everything myself it's just the one thing I can't do is sprites and walkcylces. There is only one character in the game and I can probably do any sprite edits and poses myself but the basic logics of sprites and cycles just passes right over me. So if anyone can just make this one sprite and cycle for me that would be absolutely amazing thank you.

The sprite is a Janitor. The game is set in a "Beneath a Steel Sky-esque" future and the main character is the maintenance man in a government building during a terrorist attack. So really a Janitor/Maintenance Man sprite would be amazing thank you if anyone can do this please PM me or get in touch through IRC.

Thanks

VSB (http://www.vohaulstrikesback.com) is looking for voice actors to audition for several parts.

You must be able to submit good-quality recordings.

Parts we are currently looking for include Roger, Bea, Roger Jr., two Sequel Police, Vohaul, and some new characters.Ã,  We already have a narrator, sorry.

With the already-seen characters, we'd like people who are not necessarily the same pitch, but who can at least deliver in a similar manner as the established characters.

Other characters required (all male) include:

• a few (~3) laidback characters, plus another 2 who are featured more prominently in the storyline and are even more laidback.
  
• one who is more authoritative
  
• another who is soft-spoken yet arrogant
  
• another who is a variation of Marvin the Paranoid Android from HGttGÃ,  (yet more rusty) or Strong Sad from H*R
  
• a teenager
  
• short, fuzzy creatures resembling Ewoks:
  
  
  
  • a leader of a resistance cell
    
  • an out-of-power official with delusions of grandeur
    
  • two friends, extremely active/athletic
    
  • bartender, with raspy voice
    
  • an old priest
    
  • two sneaky thief-type characters
    
  • a drunk
    
  • an openly arrogant character who is easily scared
    
• a literally faceless doctor with a bit of a dry sense of humor and who is somewhat unbelieving
  
• a nervous lawyer
  
• a guard who has to try to keep people from entering a secure area, but who also brought:
  
• the guard's son, easily bored, asks a lot of questions if not preoccupied
  
• a redneck hypochondric, scared of the doctor (mentioned above)
  
• a busy official who doesn't like to be bothered
  

Auditions may be e-mailed to me (pcj@sqvsb.com) or posted at the VSB forum (http://forum.vohaulstrikesback.com/viewforum.php?f=3).Ã,  Questions or comments may be e-mailed to me.

That's all the characters we need to have for now; we'll have more to audition for later.

The freeware project codenamed The Revival Of MI is in need of:

- a character concept artist, capable of drawing CMI-type characters (want an example? see here (http://www.milegend.com/characters/characters.php?id=2)). We don't want rip-offs of CMI, though, so if your style is a little different, and the characters look nothing like the CMI versions, in a similar style only, that's not a problem! Actually, that's encouraged!

- a general animation artist (making stuff like explosions, ripples on ocean waves, wriggling worms, ... in the CMI style)

- a character animation artist, willing to make all those CMI type characters the concept artist makes into walk/talk/scratching-your-nose/putting-a-monkey-in-yer-pants - cycles.

Send me a sample of your work when you apply. I won't have anyone enter our developer forum and other facilities without proof of capabilities.

Details about the game:

This is a monkey island - inspired game, if you haven't guessed it already. We try to capture the MI1/MI2 Ron Gilbert essence using beautiful CMI-type graphics. I am not at liberty to reveal any details of the plot to non-developers, though. It has to be a surprise.

We plan to release the intro movie and part 1 once they're finished to see if we succeeded at creating the right kind of game. How we'll go from there will depend on the feedback we get from the community.

If you want to follow our progress, look here (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=22611.0) (oh, and ignore the Guybrush image, we won't use that one)

With luck, we can revive those monkey island adventures together!
(and show LucasArts the Monkey Island fancommunity ain't dead!)

Hi all. I'm Antonio Limpo and I am starting a team for developing a game. My "company" is called "Limpo Arts". I want to make a classic point 'n' click adventure, where one of it's main features it's the hand drawn artwork.

Check some work I've done in the past to get the idea.
(http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6107/522/1600/scrnshot2.jpg)

As I want to focus mainly in the hand drawn artwork and story, I need:

- 2D designers to back me up(mainly coloring work in GIMP, following indications and also doing some animations based on my - and yours - drawings)
- Someone to do the music (influences from Lucas Arts games, circus music, and so on)
- In the future, voice-acting

Mainly I need people with creativity and talent! Of course we'll do the game for no $ in return, but once It's done It can easily be distributed on gaming magazines(at least here in Portugal, where 4 to 5 magazines accept indie games). Who knows what the future will bring us!

Attention Creative Writers,

We are a team that is committed to bringing new life to the classic game, “Colonel's Bequest”, while still preserving all of the elements we have come to love about the game. The problem is we are still in the early stages of getting a team together, so we need your help. Right now we are trying to get a solid story and some unique gameplay in place before we get too deep into the scripting and artwork aspects of the production.

We have taken all the critiques of the original “Colonel's Bequest” that we could find, and are looking to fix the problems the critics had, while bringing fresh new ideas to the game. We hope to make it much more interactive, and less like eavesdropping on a story you can't effect. So, listed below are job titles we are looking for right now. (Laura Bow and/or murder mystery fans are preferred, but not required.)

-Primarily, we need a team of writers that will work on helping to shape the story, develop the characters, and create the gameplay. (1920's history buff's a plus!)
-Dialog writers. (Knowledge of 1920's-style dialog would be valuable!)
-Puzzle creators. People who are interested in creating puzzles that we can include in the game, that work well alongside the story and setting.
-Sprite Artists. (People that can make the character animations. Like walking graphics, animating profile pictures to talk. Things like that.)
-Even fans of the series that just want to voice their ideas on improving the game are welcome. Because this is truly a game for the fans!

Interested candidates wouldn't have to commit to just one job title. If you wanted to cross-over and help out some with any of the jobs, that would be extremely beneficial to the team. So, if this sounds like something that might interest you, drop me an email at Dump401@yahoo.com, and give a brief description of yourself and what you'd be interested in assisting us with. We are a really laid back team that all have busy schedules, so it would be a “contribute what you can, when you can” sort of atmosphere, where everyone's voice matters.

Also, if you would be interested in contributing in something I haven't listed (programming, artwork, music…) feel free to also drop me a line. We won't be looking for help in those areas for a little while, but if you want to be considered for the job when the time comes, please contact me.

Thanks for your time, and we hope to hear from you!

Hi, i'm looking for someone to compose a few songs for our game.Ã,  We're getting very close to a release and believe me it's quality stuff.Ã,  We just need some quality music to go with it.Ã,  Its a fantasy setting, and even if have just one song to contribute send it too me in MIDI format and it may end up in the game!  And your name in the credits of course.  If you are intereseted please e-mail me tieguyny@yahoo.com

I'd be happy to send you some sample art and even a demo once you contact me.

Thanks!

I"m Re-dong Narcolepsy and I need a Couple Characters DRawn, if you would be so KInd as to Help me, that would be Awsome!  The game is 640X480

Please Contact Me at:

bleckman1974@inbox.com or PM Me here. 

P.S. I'm  Doing the Backgrounds and Programming the Game, I just can't Draw Humans!


Thank you ! ;D

I have an Idea for a new game, but I need help with the backgrounds. Anyone who is willing to design some backgrounds for my game please PM me some examples of other backgrounds you have created.

I want my backgrounds to be:
640x400
16 bit colour
Serious or cartoony depends what your better at doing.

and there will also be about 5 or 6 backgrounds needed.

If you are willing to help I will PM the specific details to the person who PM'd me the type of background I think would look good on my game.

 need some people to join me with this project. First I need a music composer, and second I need an animator. I'm starting to get good at these things, but it's nowhere near good enough to turn it into the best game ever.

I'd like the music composer to be someone that can do many different moods and has had experience with it before. Anyone interested, please send me a PM and I'll tell you what to do next. I had mOds or Geoffkhan in mind, but I don't know what they're doing at the moment. So PM me if you want to help out with music and I'll send you the theme tune I have already made. Then I'd like you to try and improve it in any way possible.

Another thing I need is an animator that can do hi-res, has had experience and can make the animations look believable and professional.

Here are the two main characters of the game. These characters will have the most animations.

Hello again,

Basically, I've gotten enough people to help out with the story, and the backgrounds are coming along well. But we need a 3D sprite artist to help us to fully bring new life into this game. We are looking for 3D characters and animations, for a 2D game. All interested for the position email me at Dump401@yahoo.com and I can email you several backgrounds to give you a better idea of what we are looking to do. And since the sprites aren't that large, they don't need to be all of that detailed. So, we welcome all skill levels!

Thanks for your time!

I need a background artist to help me with part 2 of Just Another Point n Click Adventure (as reviewed on adventuregamers.com and AGS pick of the month for December 2005). I've started doing line art placeholder backgrounds so I can get started on the game and I would like a background artist who wants to
1) Colour them in or
2) Redo them in an Monkey Island 1&2, Indiana Jones Fate of Atlantis style

I would be happy for someone simply to colour them in, but i'm not looking just for colour, but some shadowing effects and some small details, like what i've partially attempted here:
(http://www.geocities.com/lollygobbleblisbombs/CMonkey/AndrewsCar.jpg)

But not yet started this one:
(http://www.geocities.com/lollygobbleblisbombs/CMonkey/GuardBooth.jpg)

I am also looking for a character artist to draw and animate several characters for part 2
Here are some characters from the first part.

If you'd like to help out with some backgrounds or characters... OR BOTH!!! Please PM me.

Oh, and if these images don't show up, maybe you'd like to host my adventure gaming wares please PM me.

Hey folks, I've been working with all sorts of "do-it-yourself" game design kits, but to be honest, I dont have the knack for coding. My area of expertise lies in the graphical world. Here is a screenshot of my current project with AGS called "Wicked City".

http://s96.photobucket.com/albums/l183/virgoman25/?action-view&current=screenshot.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch1

As the typical cliche for AGS themes, you play SLADE WILLIAMS...a detective who gets called in when the regulars just dont have a clue. In Wicked City, you must help solve a disturbing case that leads you down a path riddled with gore and demonicly motivated crimes. More screenshots will be posted as this project progresses.

I can handle all the graphical details but I need a strong coder to help me put things together. None of the images in this game will be hand drawn!! For this room, I have used a combination of Poser 6 for the character, Bryce 5.5 for the room and milkshape 3D for the smaller objects. The character animations feature 8 directional movement with 16 frames per direction. The camera view will be a 45 degree angle isometric view. If possible, every minute detail will be custom made. Again, most of this project is ready to be graphically designed but I need a strong coder to help put functionality into it. My goal is to push the limits of the AGS engine and to see if I can design a game that is worthy of having a commercial title.

You may reach me at speed_marshall*NOSPAM*@yahoo.com or reply to my post with some type of messenger id so I can reach you.

Here is another screenshot from "Wicked City" showing some of the gui functionality. You can partially minimize the gui by clicking on the players face in the upper left hand corner.

If you would like to help code this project send me an email at speed_marshall*NOSPAM*@yahoo.com

Hello...
Well; I was working on the deluxe version of Lost in the Nightmare 1.
http://americangirlscouts.org/bbc.com/yabb/index.php?topic=23427.0

I need some help.

*I have decided to use original music. So I need musicians who could make musics to replace for the old, ripped music tracks. The musics used in the game don't need to be new; it doesn't ammter if they may be some tracks that you had composed and used in other games. I just feel ashamed for using unpermitted music.

*Proof-reading. I don't need to tell again how awful my English in LitN was (and probably still). I don't want the new players of the game to see the old, crappy translation of mine.

*A website designer for the Lost in the Nightmare game series would be great.

And also any other help is most welcome.

Please PM me if you are interested.
Thanks ;)

Hey Folks.

Now, as the ferver around King's Quest III has died down, we're looking for help with our upcoming projects.

Are you an artist who's always wanted to help make an adventure game?

We're looking for artists who'd like to create backgrounds in similar style to Sierra,

If you're interested, please send us as email. We have great and interesting projects, with many varied setting to showcase your art. Even if you cant settle for a long run or steady contribution with us, any help will move us towards the goal of releasing quality games, the entire community would enjoy.

here is a teaser regarding one of our "secret projects".

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_BPqsHKKes

Nice shots of the ags editor in that trailor there :P

As Sinister said in his above message,  Infamous Adventures  (http://www.infamous-adventures.com) is looking for some BACKGROUND ARTISTS/PIXEL EDITORS and SPRITE ANIMATORS to help out with two projects.

Projects are low-res (320x200) games in the "Sierra" style.  Projects gaurenteed completion and credit to all workers.

I think our projects are pretty fun, and if you've ever wanted to work on one - even in a small capacity, it'd be great to have you.

Send me an email, blackthorne@infamous-adventures.com , or a PM here - along with a sample of your work.  Every little bit helps, and even the smallest contributors would be credited and thanked.

If you're curious as to what we're doing, if I get a serious inquiry from you, I'll share the nature of our projects.  I know, I know... I hate secrecy and it's lame, but bear with me.

Please help, :)

Thank you all.

Hi there.


You will be given the information of what should be in the dialogs, the background story, the art if it helps, but the how-, the style-, the witty comments-, and much, much more will be (almost) entirely upto you.

You'll be working as part of a great team with each individual having exceptional skills in their specific field (myself excluded, of course ;D), with team members giving feedback on each other. (so if you can't stand any critic, you're at the wrong place  :P)

Interested? Send me a PM or mail, and don't forget to include a sample of or reference to some of your previous work.

(note: see the website for other vacancies)

I gonna be needing a Male voiceactor for the main character of my game (a MAGS game but dont think it will be done in time)

The main character will be telling what is happening.
So if the player talks to someone he will only tell whats being said and such.

The game is about a man that wakes up without knowing where he is, in a strange looking place. And ends up going into a time portal and gets transported to a space city where he will find out that he and a female was choosen to save the human race as the earth has been destroyed by the humanbeings.

If you interested and wants to see some art and such either PM me or add me to MSN using: cupgage@hotmail.com

[Edit]
Possition might be filled.

Now if there is any dialog writers out there wanting to help I could need some help soon writing the dialogs.

Its gonna be a challenge as the dialogs will all go on in the main characters head so we must find the best and most interesting way in doing the dialogs.


Thanks,
Peder Johnsen.

I want to make a game about Kolchak:The Night Stalker (a short lived television movie and series in the 70s). I can handle all the scripting but I need an artist(s). I would prefer someone with realistic looking art (to try and stay true to look of the show) but I have no artistic ability so my standards are not high. I need people to do character and background art (most of which will probably be based on real photos that I will supply).  The team working on this only consists of me right now so I would appreciate anyone willing to help.

Anyone interested can e-mail me at jay_man_36@hotmail.com or PM me. (please include a sample of your art)

P.S: If you would like more information on my project feel free to contact me with any questions you have.

If you would like to do voice acting for my game send me a pm.

Now accepting applications for character art, background art, music, sound, etc.   No experience necessary, just a desire to contribute.

DemoQuest is a community based equal opportunity project.   

PM me to apply...

Squadron Six Entertainment needs a lot of help. We need someone to design our website. It can be html, php, whatever, it doesn't matter.
We want to have an old-school corporate look, kind of like how Sierra's site used to look.

Here's our logo:

(http://www.johnsendesign.info/squadronsixentertainment/img/logo.gif)

and here's a recent site we stumbled across that was made by an AGS user, it sort of points out what we want for a look:

if there is anyone good at animation i could sure use some help with the 4 characters who will have walk cycles in my game. I'm sure i could do it myself however ive been pretty busy recently and the backgrounds and coding are all i usually have time for on my spare time. BTW. this is for my asterix game. just send me a pm if your interested and i can send what i have so far including a demo if your willing to download and have some fun

Sons of Gaia needs an animator!

I am currently working on a short/medium length game where I need an animator to do some animations.

I have tried to do some animations myself but I dont get it the way I wants them!

There is currently not many animations to do as there is not much art finished yet as I just got myself a new artist to do the backgrounds instead of me.

The game has no walking characters in it (at least not at the moment) so mostly animations will concist of is for the intro some type of "ghost light" will appear and move around a bit then dissapear and then a portal will be created infront of a opening in a cave.

Other things will be "close ups" of character talking, smoking and such.
Some other types of animations might pop up aswell.

The game is about a male waking up in a cave looking place that finds out he has been brought there by a system made by aliens, reason was to save the human beings from being gone cause of themselve destroying the earth.
The system was meant to transport both the male and a choosen female to the right place but the system had a fault and they ended up being transported to 2 different places.

The male now have to find the choosen female so they can rescue the human race.

Contact me via PM if interested!

Edit:
Position might be filled!
Though, if you are interested send me a PM!
As it is my background artist that might do the animations, but he might not be able to make em all.


Thanks,
Peder Johnsen.

Hi,

I've just finished the beta version of my new game and could need some testers.
Please PM me if you are interested in a small slapstick and nonsense game.

Mortimer Bonethresher is a humble soldier in Lucifer's XXVth Skeletal Horde. They're months deep in a campaign to overrun the Earthly Realms and things aren't going too well.

They weren't defeated by military might. They weren't cast out by the power of Jesus. They were overwhelmed by superior marketing. For example, you can get rat onna stick for a mere silver coin on Earth. And it comes in a little bag with a cute picture of a rat on it! What soldier of the undead could turn that down?

Mortimer has plans of his own too. There are cut-price holidays to the Fiji islands and he's thinking he can make up for the past three years forgetting his wedding anniversary.

It's a nice idea but, as usual, there's a problem. His wife is still in Hell. And the only person with a master key is Lucifer, last seen leading the final stand against the human armies. It's not going to be an easy quest, but there's a marriage at stake. Plus, the island where he's going serves those drinks with cute little umbrellas in them. What soldier of the undead could turn that down?

[/end pitch]

I'm looking for two people (possibly one, if your talent runs deep) to help out in the graphical realm. I'm intending the game to be a comedic adventure in the classic LucasArts vein (eg MI1/MI2/FOA/DOTT), so low-res etc. Since my abilities in this area are totally lacking, I'll need a SPRITE ANIMATOR and a BACKGROUND ARTIST to work with me on a medium/full-length (i.e. 20 â€" 30 screens) game. While there won't be any financial credit, you'll have major credit in the game. The project is guaranteed completion, as long as I can find suitable artists to work with.

Any interested parties, please PM me and I'll give you my email address so you can send me a sample of your work. I'll then send the story outline/notes on the first part so we can try and get some concept images/sprites going.

Hopefully some people out there can help me :)

What I need is an artist to make the board of the game:
Press for full size!
(http://brikkerogbrett.com/bilder/skatten3.jpg) (http://brikkerogbrett.com/bilder/skatten3.jpg)
Without the other stuff (just the castle and the cubes where the player can walk)

Here is a sketch of the layout I have thought of for the game:
(http://www.sonsofgaia.net/dungeonquest/volrikskisse.png)


Here is some of the pieces for the board
(that will appear when the player walks into a new cube):
(http://www.sonsofgaia.net/dungeonquest/piece1.png)(http://www.sonsofgaia.net/dungeonquest/piece2.png)
(http://www.sonsofgaia.net/dungeonquest/piece3.png)(http://www.sonsofgaia.net/dungeonquest/piece4.png)

If the cubes on the sketch of the layout for the game are to small to get the pieces to look good in that size there should not be no problem to have them made bigger.


Some of the "cards":
Here is the original cards from the game:
The back of each card:
(http://www.sonsofgaia.net/dungeonquest/monster.png)
(This I only wants made to use for the rules "book".)

Goblin:

Card Sketch:
(http://www.sonsofgaia.net/dungeonquest/cardsketch.png)
(This is how I want the layout for the cards to be.)

The game is originally a RPG board game from Sweden.
It will be a single player game but I might make it into a multiplayer game later.
I dont want to tell to much about it in public YET.
So if you want to help but would like to know more just ask!


Contact me via PM if interested!


Thanks,
Peder Johnsen.

I actually had an idea for my adventure game, if you look at something in the game, it gives a picture of a real life version of the object. So what I'm looking for here is pictures of real objects that are listed below. Thanks!!
(BTW the pictures have to be your property or used with permission. I don't want to get sued.)
(http://xs511.xs.to/xs511/07023/pics.png)
Stuff not shown in the picture above, but still needs pictures/comments:
A pot pie
A wooden desk
A bed with a blue quilt
Tacks
Exploding laptop
Old toothbrush

If you have any photoes of the objects listed above, please PM them to me. Thanks!!

My game is called Since You've Been Gone, it's about a girl, Hailey, who gets cheated on and dumped and she's so mad at her ex-boyfriend, Kyle C. Montague, that when she sees Hailey's Comet (I know it's spelled Halley's Comet and pronounced "holly", but it makes a better plot this way!) she wishes that she would get revenge. The next day she wakes up and she's in his body, their souls switched places. And the rest of the game is about ruining his life! Fun, eh?
Two little elves also help her (they know all the answers to the game but are sometimes stubborn to get hints out of). They're supposed to be her conscience, but the one that's supposed to be good and telling her to be nice is tired of being such an angel all the time, and gives into the temptation of mischief and thus a fallen angel is born.

Hello Everyone,

I am still trying to get my remake of Sierra's "Colonel's Bequest" off the ground, and I am still in need of:

STORY WRITERS: Creative people looking to work in a small group, to look over the original story, develop game elements further and possibly change some ideas around to create a better flow for the game. Also, possibly work on adding some challenges or puzzles. I have a private forum set up where we can discuss ideas, and I have an enhanced story layout set up.

ANIMATOR: I have created some portraits, like the one below from "Laura Bow 2", and I am looking for someone that feels comfortable in animating them to look like they are talking, and blinking their eyes. Each character will probably have three different heads to animate, so I am looking for someone with experience in lip-syncing.
(http://www.geocities.com/jean_matthews/Pictures/LAURABOW.gif)

BACKGROUND ARTISTS: I bit off alot when I took on this art style for the game, I knew it would look impressive but it takes a bit of time per screen. I am looking for someone to help me out with doing the backgrounds, that feels they can achieve this style. I will be more than willing to work with artists, to show them how I did it. I just used Photoshop to put these together, so nothing fancy is required.
(http://img145.imageshack.us/img145/2215/lbdemopicturejz7.jpg)

Again, anyone interested can reply to Dump401@yahoo.com. Thanks for your time, and I hope to hear from you!

Greetings Adventurers!

I'm still working on my "Rise from the Abyss" game and slowly getting closer towards the finish line.

I wanted to ask if anyone may be interested to help out in a couple of ways.
One way is to help me design a new set of Action GUI Icons and Mouse Pointers, and another was to see if there's anyone interested to be a Beta-Tester in the near future when it's ready for that phase.

Please check out the following link for a message with more info:
http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=24181.msg381002#msg381002

Of if there's any other way you think you'd like to help contribute, feel welcome to contact me with your suggestions.

Thanks.

Hi, I and a dedicated group people make up a company called "Orient Media Studios " we make armature adventure game for free like the ones made by "sierra entrainment did in the 90s
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sierra_Entertainment#1990s
our current project is

Game description:
The main character is a young police detective with the Tokyo police. One day he is told to investigate a drug related murder, but upon doing so he uncovers information that leads him to believe that the police department, and perhaps the government itself, is involved in a huge drug ring all throughout Asia. As he gets closer to the truth however, he comes home one evening to find his house in ruins and his family missing. A note is left that says: "If you ever want to see your family again, stop your investigation or you will never see your family again. Their blood will be on your hands. They will die a slow painful death. You have 36 hours!"
we would like to give our company a web presence and we are in need of a webdesiger to make this possible please support us and be our designer we cant pay your because we produce games for free (free for all)

but if someone could help it be greatly appreciated
Pm me if intrested
Thank you

Orient Media Studios Administration

BRASS TACKS

I'm looking for anyone who can do music or animation (primarily animation, as I may already have someone on board for music) for the game in the above WIP thread. I'd really like to find someone who can take my background images and character art and animate them (not much animation is required, just slight ambient animations to give the world a more realistic feeling). There is only one main animation needed for the game: armored cyber-police. I provide the main image (or, if you prefer, a mockup image) and you animate the character running to the right and shooting. Other animations I might require would be simple things like smoke rising, cars passing by, and people interacting with each other in a crowded bar. Again, I provide the main image to animate or a mockup, and you animate it however you see fit.

http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=29020.0

I'm looking for people who can translate The Marionette into Italian and German. These translators will be working with me as the game develops. Please PM me if you are fluent in either language (and English as well, of course).

Hi there.

I'll refer to my previous post here (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=28807.msg371418#msg371418)

We still have a need for a good monkey island(MI1/2/3) -type native-english-speaking dialog writer!


and while I'm at it, we also have room on our team for:

- an animation artist (2d CMI style, see some artwork at our website for reference)

Interested? Send me a PM or mail, and don't forget to include a sample of or reference to some of your previous work.

Please don't apply anymore, it's been stopped and you're giving me a bad consciousness  :'(


(http://www.monkfan.de/img/random8.jpg)

So that guy walks into a thread and writes "Geez, I should really make a Mr. Monk adventure game" (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=29982.0). And to his surprise, some other guys answer "Yeah, great idea"! And thus the guy starts thinking about actually making a Mr. Monk game. A true story - mine, to be exact.

But before I even start doing that game, I'll need some help. If there shall be a Mr. Monk adventure, it shall be based on a Mr. Monk episode (probably Mr. Monk Goes to the Theatre) and it shall be great. First of all - would anyone be willing to help? I'll need something like a real team for this, meaning

1) Multiple graphics artists

-> 100%-ly somebody for the **** character graphics and animations Welcome abord, Green Boy

-> Someone who can do the background graphics (in worst case, I *could* do that myself)

Welcome to the team, YosefZaYoddler He's off again  :'(

2) A musician

3) Somebody who can extract the music from the Mr. Monk intro   ;D
Forget it, it's downloadable at the official site.

4) Beta testers (we have 1 already, but more are always nice)

Feel free to apply if you're willing to help on a game gunning for multiple AGS awards 2007. Just PM me or go on my ICQ nervers  (305-601-174).

The game currently is few more than some scribbled notes on one of my 'notes pages', but I'm sure we can make it. I WANT YOU FOR MR. MONK!

http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=29020.0

Still looking for new scripters as my original team is facing various real life issues and cannot continue at the moment.

Drop me a PM if you're good at coding, because I'll be asking for some fairly strange features as the game progresses :)

Well, what Akatosh said. We desperately need you for this! I am the storywriter and part-puzzle maker. Enjoy!

I have returned from the abyss, bringing with me my latest perversion of the AGS engine's original purpose.


Well of Shadow

Well of Shadow is a dungeon RPG type.Ã,  The engine is completely finished, and runs so far flawlessly.Ã,  There are, however, no graphics, not even placeholders.Ã,  Everything is text/menu based at the moment (making for a not very interesting game, needless to say).Ã,  Other than that, it is practically finished.


Concept:
Many warriors, seeking power beyond that of a mortal kind, have ventured into the Well of Shadow - none have returned.Ã,  No one who enters the well ever emerges to tell the tale of the wickedness and misery below.Ã,  Many rumors, and even some ancient documents, speak of the well.
It is a resting place for the souls of the damned and the depraved.Ã,  People who's lives were led by corruption, fear, anger, misery, depression, and hatred, find a new life in the depths of the abyssal Well of Shadow.Ã,  In their reborn state, they can release the horrors of their mortal lives on the adventurers who dare enter their realm.Ã,  Mortal pain is their sole pleasure, murder the pentacle of happiness.Ã,  They are the Monsters of Shadow.
What lies in the well is another realm entirely.Ã,  A world apart.Ã,  What drives mortal courage to brave this abyss?Ã,  Power.Ã,  For at the bottom of the well, it is said, in the deepest dungeon, there lies the Throne of Shadow.Ã,  He who sits on it is given power over the shadows of the mortal realm.Ã,  Power over all human darkness:Ã,  corruption, fear, anger, misery, depression, hatred, and death.Ã,  He who holds this power can inflict or take away as much darkness on the human race as he pleases.Ã,  It is his power.
You have entered the well.Ã,  You quest for the ultimate power, to sit upon the Throne of Shadow and command the forces of darkness to your biding, be it for the rise or fall of your fellow man.Ã,  Just remember one thing, warrior - no one comes out of the Well of Shadow.


As I said, there are no graphics as of yet.Ã,  I can probably work out the music on my own, but graphics I am a master of failure at.Ã,  The style I am imagining is a rather bleak one, full of, predictably, shadows.Ã,  Backgrounds, monsters, and weapons must take on a semi-realistic, and even surreal appearance.Ã,  I am looking for someone/people to create backgrounds, monsters, perhaps weapons, and perhaps the menu sprites (though I can probably pull of the latter two).Ã,  For more detail, please contact me by PM, I would highly appreciate and give credit to any help on this project.

Hello everyone!

I've been searching for an artist for... uhm... 1 year. I have the plot. Actually I have everything! Except an artist.
I would be grateful if some of you would send me a PM in order to know more about the game. By the way, it's called (or may be called) "Sybill's Adventures".

Well, I need help for my new 'Jacob's Ladder' game. I need everything, except from story and dialogue. Please help!!

This would be immensely cool. Please join my team!!

Hello, I am looking for an artist to create all of the art for a new project I am working on.

It is called "Jimmy the Misguided Space Man II". It's part 2 in a series (although part 1 hasn't been created yet) that focuses on Jimmy's return to his home planet (after escaping Earth in the Part 1). As our hero is entering the atmosphere he encounters some strange interference that causes his ship to crash in an unfamiliar part of his home world, Tardash. Thus, the adventure begins. Jimmy starts out simply trying to figure out a way to get home but soon he begins to uncover a sinister plot to control all of the citizens of Tardash and drain the planet of it's resources.

Jimmy is not your typical hero. He's in it for himself. He's a smart ass. He does what he needs to do to get by- sort of like a Gabriel Knight-type of character.

The scope of the game so far is pretty ambititous. It is planned to be about the size of Quest for Glory 1. There will be ~50 backgrounds and alot of characters. Not sure how many yet but the story will be pretty involved. Also,Ã,  As this is a foreign world there will be ample opportunity for creativity. I have certain ideas for things and I have the land pretty mapped out but nothing is really concrete. The artist will have carte blanche to create the art based on the story and our ideas.

I'd like to implement combat and give the world a dangereous feel to it. The game will have a similar feeling to Quest for Glory- sort of a "Quest for Glory on another planet".

If you are interested please email me at mattrollins@hotmail.com. I have a short demo available also.

Thanks,

Matt

I have translated a pretty recent Maniac Mansion Mania episode and now I'm looking for a native English speaker to go over my translation.

Please PM me if you'd like to help bringing another MMM game to the english community.

Thanks in advance!

BACKGROUND ARTIST WANTED

Hello - I'm working on a full-length historical adventure (with a slight supernatural bent) entitled 'One Flesh', along the lines of Gabriel Knight and Broken Sword.Ã,  I'm looking for an artist who could provide backgrounds that would suit this style and make for a more visually appealing game.

The characters will be created in Photoshop and Poser (for ease of animation), so that part of the artwork is taken care of, though help providing some 'sketches' drawn by one of the characters would help.Ã,  Ã, 

THERE IS A REWARD/PAYMENT: I have a decent amount of Amazon.com gift vouchers to offer to whoever's who'd be willing to make quality backgrounds for the entire game (so 50+ bgs, of varying levels of detail - the design document is about 80% finished and I wanted to try and get an artist on board so I could play to some of their strengths before finalising the rooms).

If you're interested, PM me with any questions and any samples and I'll be happy to answer any queries you may have.Ã,  Thanks!Ã, 

Attention Web Site Designers!
Squadron Six needs a new website layout, done with either .php or .html.
We're looking for sort of a rough, industrial/military feeling for our site.
Anyone interested in taking this up, just PM me.
(Also, we'll need a matching layout for our SMF forums)

Project  Name: LONE CASE
Requiring: Music composers.

Ways to communicate with us:

Ã,  Ã,  Ã, Okay, I have an idea to remake the original Zork text adventure game (and turn it in to a graphical AGS game). I have no real abillities as far as doing graphics, music, coding, or anything. What I'd like to do is get a team together and I would do all the coordination for the project. Also I would get everyone what-ever info the would need to design the bg's and do the conversations and everything and anything else I could possibly help with (I have lots of free time on my hands at the moment, so I would be able to dedicate mucho time to the project). Hopefully there will be people that like the idea and want to work on the project. Please PM if interested or email me at thewalrus_2000@yahoo.com. I am very serious about this idea and would REALLY like to get a team together!

Hy! I'm working on a game where you play a vice cop(the game is located in the 80's)and I just can't seem to get the walkcycles right. I'm looking for someone to work in the walkcycles for me. If you can help please PM me. Hope you can help!
Ã,  Big Nerd

I downloaded AGS some time ago and a couple of times have enthusiastically made a start on a game. I start drawing the first room and after a couple of hours have something that still doesn't look much like what I want it to. I then think about all the other rooms and objects (not to mention walkcycles - eek!) that I'll need to draw, sigh, and give up.

This is a shame, really, because my ideas for games end up languishing in my head instead of getting turned into games.

Now, when it comes to plot, dialogue, puzzles, etc, these are pretty straightforward to me. Even the scripting is a doddle (I'm a programmer by profession).

So would any artists out there who love to paint and draw but run a mile at the thought of scripting be interested in collaborating with me on a game? You would be responsible for all the artwork (rooms, walkcycles, objects, and animations if you feel like it), and I would work on the rest. We would take joint credit for the game. If you are interested, please PM me. Thank you!

Hi,
I am the project Saume Whère leader â€" a Lucas-like fan game that I'll describe later in appropriate boards ; our website is http://www.mashinchoz.com/eindex ; and the demo is 85% finished (it will be released soon, around April).

I'd like to found someone to help us in music, because I'm as good in creating music as a snail in marathon. The hero will be adventuring in Saume Whère Viscounty, France, in the beginning of the XVIIIth century ; I'd like to have an appropriate theme (what could Indy be without its famous theme ? And Monkey Island ? ::)) and good musics.

Feel free to visit our website for best informations, and PM me if interested.

And excuse me if I this post is filled bi wiz of badd ingleesh. ::)

EDIT: Uh oh... I clicked "New thread" instead of "Reply" in the Recruiting topic. Can our gentle moderators deplace or delete my thread ?
Sorry to bother you â€" I will be more careful :-\

Hi,

  I want to create a game in the "Sherlock Holmes":The Serrated Scalpel" style. I have created what would be the skeleton of the game (without puzzles) with a visual novel engine called Ren'py. You can find it at :

http://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewtopic.php809

So I have the script and puzzles design but now I need an artist and AGS programer to make it "alive".

If you are interested, please PM me.

Needing beta-testers for Access. Enough said, I guess.

/EDIT: Getting urgent.

Hello! I need someone to compose some music for a game I am making.

The game is called Resistance, it is about A time traveller, a group of french resistance fighters and nazis set in 1942 France.

I need a main theme in a 1940's cinema style. Optional to add in the french national anthem into the mix intertwined with original music.

The project is for this month's mags competition.

Please contact me via PM if you can help.

Thanks

In need of a good animator for my asterix game. I only really need a character animator for walk cycles on 4 characters

I'm in need of a 3D modeler for Prodigal 2. The job will be for several low polygon models (in game models, for things such as trees and statues and cars) and several (4-6) high polygon models of monsters.

As the game is a commercial project, I will be PAYING for the work, $20 an hour. However, because of this, I have some strict requirements:

1) I want to see some examples of your work in 3D, specifically of NON HUMAN work. Animals, trees, vehicles, if at all possible. I want to be able to see that you can render more than just a face.
2) I will need STATUS UPDATES from you in email EVERY OTHER DAY. This is not a request, this is a requirement. Even if no work has been done due to lack of time, I will want to know about it. Failure to do this will result in severance of your employment and the removal of all contributed items out of the game.
3) I need someone who is either a native English speaker, or is very fluent in English. While I am aware that there are tons of non native English speaking modelers out there who are very good, I need to be able to convey what I need rendered and have it understood. I can't afford for renders that are done incorrectly because of miscommunication.
4) Because I will be paying for this, and I don't want the headaches of trying to change currency, only those living in the US can apply.

Prodigal 2 will be a horror/thriller adventure in the vein of Gabriel Knight! I'll be trying to push the envelope as far as I humanly can, so if you feel you can help make an awesome sequel, sent me an email at

real_trisk(at)yahoo(dot)com

Thanks much!
Ben

Hi,

I'm in the process of creating my first game and I need some people to do the characters for me as I'm absolutely no good at it. I need people that can do rather realistic characters rather than pixelated stuff. To get an idea of what I'm talking about you can vist this (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=30447.0) thread to take a look at the progress so far and to get a feel of what is required. The main character (Alex) was done by Auriond but I need about 11 other characters for the game (not all fully animated).

The story doesn't have a sound track yet so if you want to give it a shot please let me know.

Only PM or E-mail (jkbronco@mweb.co.za)

Presentation

Hi you all. Im owner of a little software dessign company (little solutions for little bussines) I have more than 10 years of experience as programmer in Turbo Pascal, C and Power Builder. My bussiness partner, (little P) is also part of this project, and my girlfriend too with the music and help in the story.
Of course, we are adventure games lovers since we played MI1 almost 13 years ago. We create a medium length game in 8 days to introduce ourselves into ags. you can check it here. We were thinking to create it directly in powerbuilder, but it will take too many time and we decided use the AGS runtime.

http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/games.php?action=detail&id=869

The project

And adventure game based in a unedited book called  "Future". Trust me, the history is AMAZING. Its a full length game, with voice speech and stereo music. We can offer you more info if you are interest in join the project. We probably will create it as a freeware but could be commercial depending the quality of the final product. Anyway, we want create it just for love to the adventure games. Actually, we are translating all the dialgs lines into english,working with the intro cutscene (using sample characters).

Looking for

Artists. The true is no one of us have idea to create backgrounds, characters and much less any animation. Its s hard work, but we are not lloking for nothing special, just 640-480 hi color BGs and characters whos looks like the starring of the dig. We can send you the idea of what we are looking for, but the artist have the freedom to create what he/she want. We need more than 1, because we need about 90 rooms and around 30 characters (at least, 19 chars animated, and 3 full animated). We think that the graphics do not make your game better or worse, but the people will play it if they like the graps. You can have the best history ever for your game, but nobody will download it if they dont like the graphs.

Contat us

Just PM here, by email (you can see my messeger) or if for any miracle you live in venezuela, at this phone numer: 0412-3684067.

Thanks and we wait hear from you.

i'm looking for a character artist to do .. at the moment 6 characters, the main one animated, to walk talk and actions

the plan was to just do 3D generated images but true cartoon will look a lot better  ;D

a bonus would be a Flash anmator, the characters aren't pixel art and would be about 300 pixel in hieght

theres no time lmits or pressure, mainly just a static main character to setup the rooms to start with

if your interested give me a pm and i'll fill you in with the game details, this is a long term project and a long standng serious attempt but honestly, no offence intended, if your just jumping on the team bandwagon don't bother, i can draw stick men myself :P

I'm looking for someone to compose music for a short World War II themed game.

The game is short, and would only need about 1-5 tracks.

If you are interested, you can PM me for more information.

Thanks.

EDIT:
I've finished the game and I still need someone to do music.
I also need some beta-testers.

If you are interested in either, PM me.

EDIT May, 11th, 2007 - : If anybody reads this thread, I still need beta testers. PM if interested.

xii games (http://www.xiigames.com) is looking for a background artist to fill a paid position on an upcoming commercial adventure-game project.

The game is set in a not-so-distant future when a particle physicist's mysterious and spectacular death sparks a race to find his hidden vault and claim his terrifying new discovery.

The team currently consists of:

• Vince Twelve (Linus Bruckman, Anna) writing, design, programming
  
• Shane "ProgZMax" Stevens (The Shivah, Mind's Eye) character art
  
• Nikolas Sideris (Linus Bruckman, The Forgotten Element) music, SFX
  

We are looking for a talented artist to create 320x240 background images for this lengthy adventure.  This position will be paid.

We will work together to find a style that works for everyone, but the backgrounds should be of a commercial quality.

Some examples of what we're looking for in terms of quality include:


If you're interested, PM me or send an email to vince@thexiis.com.  Please include a description of any relevant experience and, if possible, a sample background suitable for use in a 320x240 adventure game.

Hey all!

Whenever I started, or wanted to start a game I quit somwhere in the process. I'm sick and tired of it and I really want to have an adventure game that I'd call my own!

I'm looking for people who have the same problems like me and want to work on a game that we would actually finish.
I don't specialize in any field, so that is what makes this story more interesting.
I am very creative and could do magic in the artistic field, only I've never done anything real in the digital form. Also I want to be a big part in the story making and would respect your ideas equally as mine. I don't know $#!+ about programming so I'd like someone who has those skills.
Music. We'll also need great music. Or good music. Or bearable music... Plain sounds will do fine.

You don't have to have the opposite  "features" that I have, only a will to do a game till the end (or as much as possible  ;) ). Also a team thing could work.

Peace all and stay in touch.

Hey guys,
I'm in desperate need of a web designer. Anyone skilled in both PHP and CSS, please contact me. I want to integrate my forums into the rest of the (nonexistant) site, by using SSI variables. (Sort of like the SMF site)
If anyone can help, please contact me.

Hello everyone. I know there are great background artists there among you. I would be needing help in the project I've been working on during the last ~6 months. It's a serious, long adventure game about the -06 elections in the Republic of Congo. Mostly based one real facts and events, with a touch of drama here and there, but basically it's a true story. The main character is a reporter making a long full story about the whole situation. I myself make characters/sprites and music. The story is 99,9% ready. My brother used to be the bg artist, but he decided he has not got the time to work on a game of this size right now. It would indeed have, or the goal is to have about 26 rooms altogether. All 320*240 and a whole lot of colours, so no limits there.

here's the character and one bg to indicate the style I'm after:
http://img458.imageshack.us/img458/6474/congo29kz3.png

http://img248.imageshack.us/my.php?image=satama2xp7.png
http://img253.imageshack.us/my.php?image=roomyx1.png

Now I'd rather do this myself, but I've noticed that I can't really reach the level on bgs that I have on characters and objects, so I thought I'd leave it to better ones if that's possible. Now there's a tiny problem for you, I wouldn't want to reveal the whole plot, not until I've got a GiP thread, ie 2 bgs ready, but if you are interested in sharing the credits, you might try finishing one of those sketched bgs, one of a harbour in Kinshasa and the other a bedroom inside the British embassy. I could then see if it's the style I want. Now I understand if no-oneis willing, or doesn't do it the way I do, I must do it myself, which will be a bit of a problem. However, if interested, at least pm me :) thanks

Nevermind, I've got someone.

OK I have not too long ago made a post asking for help, and an op told me to go here. I am looking for a team to assist me in the production of a game I plan to make. The game will be based upon a book series, http://www.powells.com/cgi-bin/biblio?inkey=62-0689857969-0 go there to read about one in the series, as that one will be one of the main ones that will be followed. if you are not into this kind of thing or find it boring or not worth your time, please just hesitate to tell me, as I obviously do not. If you would like to join my team, please first have an understanding of the series at least at a moderate level and if not, research the stories a bit. I myself have all the ideas and themes for the game written out, I just need some graphics help. I preferably would like people, though, who have read more than one of the books and is open to the possibilities of making this work. I plan to merge the books together and modify the plots a little for a more adventure-game suitable setting. If you can help out, please pm me, don't reply here, as I will no longer read this post after I have posted it here. I have not at all really given the full story details as I plan to make this a full-length game, and so if these borderlines seem of interest to you, please please please work with me to make this a great game! I'll pm you back the full game info.

Anticipating Murder 2

The story picks up a few years after the last game. You play Jake, a private detective who specializes in marital infidelity. One of his clients turns up dead, and Jake is out to find out who did it and why - while still keeping up his caseload and chasing cheating hearts.

This will be a freeware project, hopefully out by the end of the year. The art is all in 3D, all original work, and we think we've improved a lot since the last time. Sneak preview screenie below...more available if you want it. We haven't started promoting the game yet, since its still in the early stages, but we have several (animated) rooms and characters already finished.

(http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l46/PlasticOstrich/jakes_bedroom.jpg)

We need a bit of help guys -

MUSICIAN needed!!! You'd have a huge amount of creative control, since neither of us can play anything beyond chopsticks.

We basically need a good looping theme, and some looping music for different settings as we progress (Jake's house, strip club, tae kwon do studio, library, funeral home, industrial zone, prison, Chinese restaurant, etc).   


Cheers,
Lisa & Len

I've been working on a Superman game for the program RM3K (you're probably familiar with it).  However, I came across this point and click system and it caught my attention.  I've decided to give it a shot and see how it turns out.  I'm not a bad sprite artist but I no there are many people out there who are better.  I have created many graphics for the RM3K version (and a good general plot/story line - as well as some features I want to employ in the game)  but since I'm going to transition to AGS I think it would be best to revise the graphics. 

I have small bits of knowledge in just about every area of game creating and could theoretically produce the game all by myself.  However, as I'm sure you all are aware, it is almost impossible (or at least very hard) for one person alone to complete a well balanced, highly entertaining, all around good game.  Since, I am taking this project very seriously, I would like to get all the help I can get in:

story line writers (superman fans apprecitated :-D)
programmers
Backgrounds/Title screens
Animations
Tile sets
Character sprites
(good sprite artists in general)
voice cast (i'd like to have real voices from the characters at key points)
as far as original music/sound effects goes - I'll handle all of that.  I am a music major and practiced composer/arranger.  In fact I hope to make it big one day composing for films and/or video games. But enough about me ...

If you think you'd be willing to help out or can at least tell me someone(s) who can it would be much appreciated.

note: I'm not quite ready to post screen shots or the plot just yet (but I do have these available for the RM3K version of the game) but if you are interested in working with me and would like more info then please contact me through PM or email (drewccu@gmail.com). If you have AIM or Yahoo! instant messenger then let me know in your message and what time zone/time you are on usually and we could chat via that.

Thank you,

Hello.

I've asked fro help before, but have somehow managed to solve my problems, but now, I'm in a real rut.

I require a musician to make the theme song for the Comrade Citizen games (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=31230.0). If said musician would like to do some more music for each game, that would surely be extraordinary. I need music in mp3 or ogg format, because I can't seem to hear midi on my pc, don't know why though. The song's style needs to be dark, and soviet... It is for a cyberpunk soviet series... Please pm me, because I rarely check my e-mail, if you're interested. The first game might not be much, but I'm planning the rest of the series will.

Thanks in advance, I hope when people see this post, they won't think "oh, great, here's this n00b again, let's not give a flying monkey on what he needs" and someone will actually help me, despite my recent registration and history of not-so-good to moderate quality games...

Nevermind, found a musician.

Cheers.

first of all - i'm looking for an artist who can do a specific style.  I didn't know if this would be the best place to post this and if it's not then you can move it.

I want my Superman game to be in the style of Indiana Jones: Fate of Atlantis as far as graphics and basic gameplay goes.  (btw - those of you that workd on Indian Jones FoY - I commend you highly! If i didn't know it was a fan project i'd thought it was done by Lucas Arts. Just finished the demo today.)

I have a sample character i want to show you - and if you can do this style i'd love to have you! (again, it's basically Lucas Arts/Indian Jones style - i just tried to do my interpretation of clark kent to give you a better idea of what i'm looking for).

Attention: Sprite artists/artists in general

Here is an optional project for you.  I am writing an online children's story but I am terrible at drawing.  I need the following pictures done in a child-like way - really pixelly is fine, just go wild - backgrounds are optional (hope someone out there takes up this challenge and is able to save me!  I will give you full recognition, of course)

1 - a picture of a stuck up princess talking to an upright frog.  The princess should be glamorous and snobby looking.  The frog should not be, but he should be lovable.

2 - a picture of the frog working as a stock broker (maybe reading charts, or analyzing an upward trend or something)

3 - a picture of the frog working out in the gym

4 - a picture of the frog driving a really nice sports car

5 - a picture of the frog surrounded by beautiful, loving women and the princess looking very jealous

are you up for it?  please contact me if you think this is something you could help me with.  as mentioned before, i will give you full recognition for your work and my respect.

thanks!

Ryan

Brødrene Dal - The Adventure Game:

A team of Norwegian fans of KLM (A norwegian comedy trio) has currently joined forces to create an Adventure game of the norwegian "comedy tv series" Brødrene Dal.

But we need more help!

We need some people on the art section.
People known to the series is best but offcourse there would be no problem for anyone who dont know em to make the art.

The backgrounds should be in resolution 320x200 near to be the same quality as Indiana Jones and The Fate of Atlantis.

Most backgrounds will be based on real locations so pictures will be provided to the artists aswell with some descriptions.


The characters should also be in Indiana Jones FOA style.
We allready got someone now to make the concept art of the characters.
You can see the 3 main characters below:
(http://www.sonsofgaia.net/bdloai/brummunddal.png) (http://www.sonsofgaia.net/bdloai/gausdal.png) (http://www.sonsofgaia.net/bdloai/romsdal.png)

The first character is a bit shorter than he is supposed to be...
Their meant to be about the same height all of them.
We need someone to pixel the other characters for the game in the Indiana Jones FOA style like we have had done with the 3 main characters:
(http://www.sonsofgaia.net/bdloai/frontviews3.png)
(http://www.sonsofgaia.net/bdloai/frontviews3.png)
ProgZ did one frontview and Ive edited it a bit to get the right type of hats and face for the different characters.
Then another person from the team did some more edits and it ended up as above.

We also need someone that can make the animations for the characters.

That is what we need at the moment.


PM me if you are interested!
If you are interested in pixeling the characters you can try and pixel one of the characters above.
They should be the same size as the Indy sprite.


Thanks,
Peder Johnsen,
Project Leader

I'm in the process of making my first game, which will be a mixture of a Gabriel knight and Broken sword type of game. I need an animator that can assist with the walk sequences of the characters. All I need is the basic outlines as I have a very talented artist on board that can do the paint over but neither of us have any animating skills. If you are a skilled animator that can bring Alex to life please drop me a PM or email.

Well, are you going to make a completely 3D game or to combine 2D and 3D styles?

I am in need of an AGS specialist and 2D artist.

This is an adventure game, months in the making.  Im hoping for a release by Mid August.

CHARLIE FOXTROT & THE GALAXY OF TOMORROW (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=29301.0) requires the services of a musician.  This project is a full length game that has already undergone Beta Testing and is essentially complete except for music and sounds (see the GiP thread here (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=29301.0) for more information).

REQUIREMENTS:
-a Star Wars Cantina theme spoof
-an Elvis Presley "Hound Dog" spoof
-7 loops of 30-120 seconds for ambient music in the distinct zones of the game (a space station, a small-town, the
    desert wilderness, a post-apocalyptic jungle, the primordial plains, a secret base and the final epic finale).
-A one-off theme that doesn't have to loop for the introduction sequence and the credits afterward, but should be
    around 30 seconds long with a 30 second fill-up-the-time extension for the end.
-A five second "impending death" suspense build up.

Interested applictants should PM me with a sample of their own original work.  In general I'm looking for a cheesy sci-fi retro style reminiscent of early Space Quest or arcade games from the 1980s.  MIDI is the preferable medium but I am flexible if you can make a convincing argument. 
All applications are appreciated but I am interested in collaborating with one or two people at the most.  Interest and ability to create science-fiction type sounds is a definite asset and may be considered as a separate position.

I will accept inquiries and submissions until Thursday June 21 @ Midnight GMT .  Then I'll make a decision.  Thanks in advance to any interest shown,

BaRoN

Hello. My name is Ivan and I need help with my gmae :=.

I need a composer for a game. It's not something totally new, however, it's just a remake of Mad Homicidal Clown From Hell Rampage (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/games.php?action=detail&id=774).
I used placeholder classical music in MAGS version, and as I'm producing the remake it would be great to have some actual music in it. Don't get me wrong - the (placeholder) tunes I used are good, but they don't go well with the game. As I think.

Anyway, if you want to collaborate, send me a PM or e-mail. Especially if you can do dark ambient or industrial electronic themes or metal - the heavier the better.

o.k..im starting as i said a new game ,i need a team ,so...people who knowes to create music ,programmers ,and people with a good attitude ,will be o.k ,my job of the game is the script (script ,not the one of the program such as codes)
and the graphics ..oh ,and if someone is good at drawing background it will be good ...

some information about the game script :

a geek kid in the early 90's ,is sitting at his room and playing computer games ...while ,*bam!* thunder shock hits near his house ,he sees the blast of the thunder for 1 sec ...but than ...than he see's pacman ...wait wait ,pacman ?where could that kid be ? it looks different from the real world ,but the same as the world in his mind -world of games.

so ,as you see ...the kid is going around and around trying to find the way to get outside that world ,after all ...he loves to play the games ,not to live them.

thats about it ...hope you will like my idea ,and i even hope more to see people coming into my msn messenger user for talking about it +joining the team.

No, there is not going to be 3D engine or 3D camera......  just characters

Join Jerk Perkins in his quest to save his kidnapped girlfriend, in this rock-a-billy high school struggle! OR...

You can join ME in my quest to make sure this happens! This is intended to be, not nessecarily ripped off from, but styled graphicly similar to Sam n Max HTR. I have the story moving along fine, and I'm doing okay with AGS itself, but I'm having a terrible time with backgrounds. So at this particular point I'm looking for...

*BG artist. 320x280.
*Help with sprites would be fantastic, but I THINK I can manage. ;)
*Music and sound. I'm not a bad musician, and I could do the music I want on mp3 just fine, but I personally prefer midis here.

I personally think writing's my strong suit, and I really feel strongly about my story and my characters.

If anyone's interested and would like to see it, I've got a good start on the story outline ready.

Everyone's work here is so great, and it'd be a treat to work with any of you. Thanks for reading.

HI guys,

Now I am looking for somebody who can make music and sounds. I mean, Monkey Island style. I will need him for my remake. thanks     

I'm head of a group of creatives who produce a movie, based on the german fairy-tale "Hänsel und Gretel". As little gimmick and to promote the movie project, we want to make a little adventure in the old Lucas-Arts classic-style which explains the world of the movie to the audience. So the project will use 320X200 - 16Bit. The more positive reactions to the adventure we get the more likely we will think about continouing the game to a full length adventure.

we've got a story and some - in my opinion - awesome concept-drawings but what we don't have ist enough experience with the AGS-script language, animation and programming at all. So we need people who translate the work of our artists into the language of "AGS". 

The world in which the adventure is going to play is a kind of industrial-fairy tale. Very dark and atmospheric - thats what we want our game to be.

To give you an idea of what the game will look like - here are two concept drawings of one of our grafic-artists.

(http://www.ravenframe.de/Game/SJ_keyframe_08.jpg)


(http://www.ravenframe.de/Game/SJ_keyframe_09.jpg)

what we need is:

1-2 animators,

1 programmer,

1 sound designer,

1 background guy, who adapt the background drawings into AGS.

if you're interested, contact me by PM for further information and more pictures.

I hope the community can help us with this unusual project.


Greetings,

Wingis
- project leader -

 I need anyone to make grammar fixing or translate the game to his own language. The game text is available to download. So if you would like to help me, please PM me. There is no language limit. Any language you would like to translate will be accepted and written in credits on the game's page.

Hi, we're searching a programmer in Spanish lenguage.

Hola, estamos buscando a un programador de Wintermute para que se incorpore en un proyecto que hemos empezado hace poco. Ya disponemos de un programador pero necesitamos otro, para que se distribuyan el trabajo.

Se trata del desarroyo de una aventura gráfica a nivel profesional, no es imprescindible ser un experto en Wintermute, pero sí tener nociones básicas y saber de programación en general.

Interesador mandar un correo a: lcw.games@gmail.com

This guy is asking for a spanish professional wintermute coder... Dunno if he really thinks he is going to find one, here, or he is simply trying to be annoying...  :-\

What is wintermute ?

Wintermute is a adventure game engine like AGS and i don't think you should look for wintermute coder here  :) You know wintermute has its own forums.

I'm currently looking for some avid artists an developers to help join me in creating the first Star Wars adventure game. This project will play out like the sam & max episodic series. The game is called 'Star Wars: Jax Stories'. Each episode progresses the story with a different case, all connected in some devious way.

Clip from the dev blog [LINK] (http://swjaxstories.blogspot.com/)'You control of the character 'Shaden Jax', the best PI on planet Coruscant. Well, at least he thinks he's the best. Little does he know that small clues laid along his long journey of suspense and mystery will uncover a dark Sith secret.

The first episode is titled 'Mystery of the Stone Cold Twi'lek'. In this episode Shaden is hired by a female Twi'lek by the name of Nali Zem. At her disposable she requests you to investigate her sister's untimely demise. As Shaden investigates, he soon finds out that things are going to get worse.

Our goal is to create a episodic series with 2 hours playtime each. As short as they may seem, we hope to be able to satisfy those who love classic adventure games and those who want a perfected episodic gameplan.'

Right now I'm almost done writing out the script for the first episode. After i'm done, we'll begin production.

At the moment, the only visual element I have is the logo.
(http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger2/5901/56283164667756/1600/z/8619/gse_multipart32182.jpg)

The game will play out like the lucasarts game 'Full Throttle' where the left mouse button moves the character and the right click brings up the actions wheel which displays various ways to interact.

I also envision cut scenes to be similar to Gabriel Knight, where the action is done through the 2d background and sprites, plus comic book box cells with illustrated animated artwork.

Besides the basic visual features, I want to incorporate mini games like gun fights, car chases, etc.

So to help this innovative dream come true, I'm going to need the help of others.

At the moment these are the following areas that I need filled in:

1-3 Conceptual Artists: Considerable experience here, I need concepts for character designs, weapons, basic environment layouts, objects.

1-2 Graphic Artists: I need graphic designers to create promotional artwork such as posters, and character artwork (Artwork placed with character bios).

1 GUI Artist: A pixel artist who can draw out gui layouts that can be cut up and used for the gui programmer.

1 GUI Programmer: I need the programmer to incorporate the interaction wheel various minigames.

1-2 Background Artists: Preferably digital artists with considerable experience to create 640x400 background art.

1-2 Animators: To start things off I'll need the main character created into sprite form and animated for movement.

1 Sound Effects: Someone who is friendly with star wars sound effects that can supply quality audio to be used in-game.


If you are interested, please either PM me or email me at bradnewsom@gmail.com

I have a project called "A Windowcleaner's Apprentice".
I've made a few backgrounds and the story is basically complete.
However, some while ago it became apparent that I can't draw people. Especially sprites.

I was hoping to recruit someone to design a Sprite for my main character, Tom.
He's a laid back apprentice window cleaner in his early twenties.  Probably a bit of a stoner.

Here's what I had in mind.
(http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f349/Captain_Stu/AGS/tom2.jpg)

I'd like him to look something like that, but if anyone has any better ideas feel free to change him up as much as you like.

My Games In Production thread (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=30378.0) was a bit premature and is locked at the moment, but here is the link so you can see a few of my backgrounds and read a bit about the game to get a feel of what the Protagonist would look like.

PM me or email me at stu@toxicsock.co.uk if you are interested.
If anyone wants to go ahead an make a full walkcycle They are more than welcome... infact I encourage it.

Of course, it goes without saying, the person whose Sprite I choose to use will probably be asked to design more characters and will be credited for their efforts.

Hi, I am looking for reliable and experienced programer for Monkey Island remake. Graphic looks very good and almost done. I need somebody who knows Monkey Island story very well and must be fan of it. Pls let me know, its gone be very good project!

Hello everyone!
I'm sure a lot of you know about the game, which could have been the official sequel (well or at least a new game in the series) of Indiana Jones and the FATE OF ATLANTIS. If not, I'll give you a hint: The game was already in production by lucasarts, but was cancelled after a short time and the story was just revealed in a comic-series. Now, not to far time ago, I was wondering, if it wasn't possible, to bring this 320*200 pixel classical point'n click adventure to live as a fanmade game. I think you all know about these great Indy-fangames (e.g Fountain of Youth or Crown of Solomon), this is going to be in the same direction. Well, our team (which isn't to packed right now, just 2 and a half people  Roll Eyes right now) are now in a planning-phase, how and if this could be possible to do. Most importand would be someone, who is a kinda AGS-"Professional" and could help us with the coding-part (as long a we all know a bit of AGS, but now enaugh). Maybe you want to visit our website for some information: http://indygamerz.freehostingnow.com/
Feel free to visit! Well, anyways, here is a sample of the art, that has been done (by me) for the game. These are the Indiana Jones Sprites, we want to use. They've all been done by me, maybe they seem like rip-ups from the Indy-Adventures, but if you give it a closer look, you'll recognize them to be new and never seen before (and it was alot of work!):

If your interested to join the team or just to give some criticts to these sprites, feel free to do so (by sending me a pm).Thanks for reading, Kaioshin
   

Hi, I almost finishing the first demo (the 1/3-1/4 of the game) of a Sci-fi spacequest like adventure called Galactic Battlefare, a game with plenty of characters, And I need voice actors to work in SPANISH. If the project goes well I'll traslate all the game, but I dont think that I would voice actors in english....

If someone is interested in voice acting in spanish please tell me (Private Message), I'wll show him the demo of the game, with some voices incluided.

Thanks.

This is more of an announcement of an adventure in developement...
Though help is always welcome, I have a few backgrounds to draw
and a few characters to design and animate.  8)

Here's Artie and his home... well, the sketch of his home.
Artie's helping me to scale things, thanks Artie.  ;)

This one's a first, short part of a serie of games I'm planning
to make in the future.

.

Want to earn some cash? Got a strong art ability? Then let's produce a mini-game & earn some living. The ideal person would be able to cope with drawing & animating for a 10 room game. No experience necessary, but your art skills must be at a very good level. You will also become a Screen 7 team member, and have further oppurtunities to lead our commercial games department. This first venture will earn you at least $5 per sold copy. Suitable to work from home, the quicker the art is ready, the quicker the game is available. 2D prefered but 3D more than welcome if you have a proven ability at rendering highly detailed scenes.

If you're interested, please read: http://www.screen7.co.uk/jobs.htm

I look forward to hearing from you!

woot!

:)

Warthogs (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/games.php?action=detail&id=817) is looking for voice actors. There are a total of eight voices in the game, each with about 50 lines of text. Drop me a PM if interested.

I will be away for about a week... so hold in there if I dont contact you back

I am in need for some help with my game.

Hello,

I need some members to help me and my friend to finish the MONK game.
Yes, the MONK.

According to my files, we are in the need of:

-Background Artists
-Character artist/animator
-Music for the game

If you are interested, please DO NOT HESISTATE to pm me!!

That's right, we're probably back in production... he somehow managed to convince me to try and give it a go again...  ;)

Anyway, at the moment, we're just scanning around for general interest again. If you PM either of us, though, be sure to be put on a list and PM'ed when we start production again.

I would need someone who could draw backgrounds (and maybe characters) as well as LucasArts' artists in Monkey Island I/Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (VGA versions)
I you're a background artist and you're interested, please PM me.

Thanks ;)

I need some people for an Unstereotypical project (well, my project).
If you can do
- backgrounds (several BGs in 220x175 resolution - that's correct resolution) - not ones of really outstanding quality, just pleasing the eye would be enough (tip: MSPaint == EVIL)
- music (about three ambient'ish tunes, total of ~5 min long) - yet again, I could do that myself, but it would be awful, and you'll regret that for the rest of your lives
- proofreading (not too soon, and I'll probably write again about it) - game already has a lot of text, and will have even more, so proofreading IS important
and want to participate in an opensource game - well, go on, pm me, email me, bug me, stake me, torture me, just get my attention :).
You'll get a place in credits, everlasting fame and lots of virgin girls(sorry, currently out of those).

DON'T YOU DARE!

NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWERS OF MS PAINT! YOU SHALL BE CURSED!

I have finished my very first comedy adventure script, and I am in need of a really good artistic talent to help me create this very humorous game.

Requirements include...

The ability to create simple yet cartoonish Lucasart's style sprites for a 320 by 240 game.

The ability to retain good patience while creating complex animations for many interesting characters.

No qualms about aiding a game that spoofs touchy subjects.

A REALLY good sense of humor.

This is an unpaid job, and only for those with a LOT of spare time on their hands. The game itself is freeware.

You may contact me by PM or at my email at littlejim@grundyec.net
You must also provide an example of your work.

The project itself is secret for now except to those who apply.

Hi! I'm the lead music designer for The Trinity (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=30447.0). I've felt the need for some ambient style tracks- however, I'm not proficient at that kind of thing, I'm better at sequencing 'themes'. If you'd be interested in collaborating with me to do some ambient music tracks (in midi), that would be greatly appreciated. So check out the game's GiP thread, if you'd like to help, PM me and I'll see what I can do.

Hello.
We are developing games in the adventure genre with a point and click interface. The games will contain interesting and intriguing stories set in the wondrous lands of Asia.
Our current project is called “Dead-End Tokyo.” Our volunteer group, Orient Media Studios, wants fans to enjoy our games for free. At the same time we want to provide a quality product that teaches about the culture and ways of life in Asia.
We want the story to be both thrilling as well as culturally accurate the game is to focus more on a husband and father's struggle to save his loved ones; rather then in face action.
This game is also meant to touch people's hearts as well.
We would greatly appreciate your assistance with this project.
Here is the basic plot to draw from

The main character is a young police detective with the Tokyo police. One day he is told to investigate a drug related murder, but upon doing so he uncovers information that leads him to believe that the police department, and perhaps the government itself, is involved in a huge drug ring all throughout Asia. As he gets closer to the truth however, he comes home one evening to find his house in ruins and his family missing. A note is left that says: "If you ever want to see your family again, stop your investigation or you will never see your family again. Their blood will be on your hands. They will die a slow painful death. You have 36 hours!"
Thanks again if you are interested please contact me: brandentobin@shaw.ca or by private message
I looking forward to your response I am including the story design doc download it at: http://www.sendspace.com/file/x80jv3 (http://www.sendspace.com/file/x80jv3)

Hi!
I'm a graphic artist (2D /sketching, but I also do 3D)

I am looking for team members, or a group who want to work on an adventure game project.

I've posted here a project which i've originally worked on to develop my skills on flash. I ended up thinking that I should develop the ideas i had in this project into a playable adventure game. I don't know if flash will be a good tool for this though, I'm not experinced in this.

you can take a look at the demo here:

http://www.sfu.ca/~malsaati/JEDDAH_DEMO.swf

The orignal storyline has been removed from this demo until i develop them into something better.

Please don't mind the errors and notes distributed all over it. It's just a demo version. But the main idea is that you can check out the background artwork in it. The quality is reduced for file size purposes.

Currently the demo only allows you to explore. Click whenever the mouse is highlighted.

If you are interested in working as a team, or already have a project where you can use a background artist like me, contact me on mxs_design@yahoo.com

Thanks! :)

We, the Indiana Jones and the Iron Phoenix Team, are still looking for some members. In fact, we need a backgroundartist, but everyone who is interested, is very welcome!

Anyone recall Tomb of the Moon (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/games.php?action=detail&id=680) from an odd one and a half years back?

I've been toying around with the idea for a game related to the story since I won the OROW, but as my artist has been on holiday for the past year I'm putting up this ad in hopes of some day completing the game.

So, I'm looking for a teammate to produce a medium-lenght game related to the story of Tomb of the Moon. I can and wish to cover scripting, story design and music, so I'm primarily looking for an artist for the whole lot: backgrounds, interface graphics, characters, objects, everything. An idea person to work with would be someone who could also provide me with feedback on about everything about the game I show to them, proofreading and testing, providing new ideas, thinking up puzzles with me, etc. And thus the game would eventually be a product of our co-operation, not just someone drawing and me doing the rest. The project's not in a hurry, but I wish to finish it some day. This asks for someone with motivation to stay with the project for a long time, if neccessary. I'm mainly looking for one person, but don't deny having more people on the team as it develops.

For style reference, try Tomb of the Moon. In my opinion it pretty much explains the main idea here. PM or email me if you're interested.

Hello,

I'm looking for a fairly experienced writer for the development of a shorter project.

If you have a script or idea that doesn't deal with a post apocalyptic dystopia, or some similar topic, then don't hesitate to contact me.

(I deal with graphics and music, and have decent experience in programming (including AGS scripting). There are examples lying around on the forums, for more, please contact me)

Edit: Seems like I could've been a bit clearer; while I have a couple of ideas, I'm also interested in working on original scripts, of shorter length.

Here's yet another call for help.

Situation as follows: I have readymade base sprites, but I lack the skill to make them walk even remotely naturally. If anyone with skills in sprite animation is interested in helping out, I am in need of two or three different walk cycles.

Contact me if you have any interest in helping out!

Hi i've tried to make a game myself but it always turned glitchy.
So can someone help me?

I still need some one who knows programing.

Hey, after trying out ACR - with no luck, I hope there will be someone who reads this post.

Some of you might have heard about or remember the name Roger Foodbelly (you can check out the blog http://rogerfoodbelly.blogspot.com/ for more info). Tomorrow we're starting the full game development, but our programmer went missing. And we need one, badly, for the game to see the light.

The story is completed, and most of the designs are done. So right now it's full speed ahead.

Uh, well. Is there any questions you might have.. Don't pm me - send me an e-mail instead at jannar85 @ gmail.com

I hope we will fill this position very quickly. And the programmer must be talented. It's an important factor.

I am currently looking for a talented Artist who would enjoy working on The Mars Initiative (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=31972.0). I AM looking for someone with experience, though their style doesn't necessarily have to be complex or realistic. I am looking to keep the graphics for this game relatively simple and "old" looking. We are searching for an artist who will be willing to take this project all the way through to completion, and enjoy doing it.

You may apply by PMing me via these forums.

Please do not apply without sending me a link to what you've done, or mentioning the AGS games you have worked on.

I post here again to find a time for a company called "Orient Media Studios" We are developing games in the adventure genre with a point and click interface. The games will contain interesting and intriguing stories set in the wondrous lands of Asia.
Our current project is called “Dead-End Tokyo.” Has been called " interesting and intriguing" by  Christopher T. Warren   Chairman & President of " HIMALAYA STUDIOS"  Our volunteer group, Orient Media Studios, wants fans to enjoy our games for free. At the same time we want to provide a quality product that teaches about the culture and ways of life in Asia.
We want the story to be both thrilling as well as culturally accurate the game is to focus more on a husband and father's struggle to save his loved ones; rather then in face action.
This game is also meant to touch people's hearts as well.
We would greatly appreciate your assistance with this project.
Here is the basic plot to draw from

The main character is a young police detective with the Tokyo police. One day he is told to investigate a drug related murder, but upon doing so he uncovers information that leads him to believe that the police department, and perhaps the government itself, is involved in a huge drug ring all throughout Asia. As he gets closer to the truth however, he comes home one evening to find his house in ruins and his family missing. A note is left that says: "If you ever want to see your family again, stop your investigation or you will never see your family again. Their blood will be on your hands. They will die a slow painful death. You have 36 hours!"
Thanks again if you are interested please contact me:
I looking forward to your response I am including the story design document
http://www.gigasize.com/get.php/3195528092/DET.DesignDoc.PLT1.doc
As well as a driving engine originally coded by my form programing using the Police Quest 3 driving system
I give him credit  where ever he may be

Hi. I am looking for someone with experience in working and scripting in AGS. Idealy what I want is someone with experience and easy to work with. I am shooting to make an epic, higher than ever quality adventure stlye game on a professional level but as a hobby and a nostalgic tribute to the great classics like Maniac Mansion, The Dig, Kings Quest, Space Quest, Loom, and Monkey Island . So far I have a rough summary written of the game. A little bit of dialouge and progression planned for the intro. A mock-up title screen, and some generic buttons. Theres a lot in my mind of where I want this thing to go. I forsee production spanning over the course of a year or so (not sure how fast this kind of work will move or if I will get anyone to join the efforts). I have experience in leading a team on successful video game projects before and I know what I'm doing as far as design and art.  But AGS is new to me. Although this style of game is not something I've developed before I am well aware of adventure games and have played many. If interested in more details feel free to ping me and I'll spill it all. I know I havent "proven" my credability on this forum yet but I aim to. I am dedicated and serious about how I spend my time and this is something I am going to do. If you want to be a part of it, then we could have a lot of fun and make a game that kills all other adventure games:)

Heres a mock-up for the title...

(http://www.binary-liquid.com/title_mockup_post.jpg)

Heres a little more info to help sway your interest or not.

This is a sample from the story board I have started for the Intro/first chapter.
(http://www.binary-liquid.com/Macro/storyboard_sample01.jpg)

The story basically puts the player in the shoes of being "god".  Your name is Macro, and you talk to yourself too much. The story starts just before "god" gains awareness. The first few puzzles are just teachinig the player the controls and options as they unknowngly create time, gravity, and light. Shortly after, the FSM has manifested as a reaction from your creations. The FSM in this story is a stupid and evil creature with "god-like" powers of creation and control. It zaps you of your throne (so to speak) and strips you of your powers. After draining you, it leaves you in the form of a cloudy dust floating in the cosmos for eternity. The floating dust is hydrogen and this is where the journey begins. You must reclaim what you created in the reality of our universe. The adventure spans over billions of years as you evolve and change forms in search for a means to face the FSM.

The human race is dying off and there is no way to stop it. A race called the Maruk have declared war on all humans and will not stop fighting until all humans are finished.
But one hope yet remains for all humans, but there is a mystery that has to be unraveled  before mankind can finally have peace.

I need a team that is willing to continue on this game until it is completed.
I need:
*A background artist
*Script writer
*Story writer
*An animations artist
*A play tester
*Music Artist

Your response will be greatly appreaciated.
Mail me at finalalert@hotmail.com OR just PM (personal message) me.

The current story will be released to anyone that agrees to join the team.

Some may remember (but I doubt it) a few months back, I spoke of compiling an AGS mailer CD. Well, I've got the okay on most of the games, and now I've finally got the time.

What I'm looking for is someone interested in helping with design of the CD itself. I've made an autoplay menu, and crafted installers, but my autoplay menu is rather boring and unimaginative. I'm looking for someone with an eye for these sort of things, and at least a little experience. Nothing special, just better than what I've got (which is pretty ugly right now.) Won't be a paid position, as I'm not charging for postage or anything on the cds, but that could change in future projects. Any responses welcome! Thanks!

Eric

Yargh! I've looked into the tutorial (after much time actually trying to find the thing) and it's helped very little - Could some one please guide me in the use of the editor for my game, Life With Death?  A stupid request, probably, but I'm not even sure what some of these terms are, and thats just the beginning.  PM, MSN or email or w/e preffed.

Hy. I'm developing a game based in MIAMI VICE show. I've wrote a small story but I'm looking for someone to expand it and really make it an interesting story. I am also looking for a background artist. I also need an experient animator to provide walkcycles and other animations needed.
Please help me!

NOTE:
         - BACKGROUNG ARTIST
         - STORY WRITER
         - ANIMATOR
If you are interested please PM me.

Thanks

  Diogo

UPDATE, 09/21/07:  Found my artist, and holy carp has he got skills!  Thanks to everyone that offered, you would not believe how exactly this guy nailed what my imagination should have looked like! :)

I dont need help anymore, Thank you.

Hello, I am looking for an artist to create all of the art for a new project I am working on.

It is called "Jimmy the Misguided Space Man II". It's part 2 in a series (although part 1 hasn't been created yet) that focuses on Jimmy's return to his home planet (after escaping Earth in the Part 1). As our hero is entering the atmosphere he encounters some strange interference that causes his ship to crash in an unfamiliar part of his home world, Tardash. Thus, the adventure begins. Jimmy starts out simply trying to figure out a way to get home but soon he begins to uncover a sinister plot to control all of the citizens of Tardash and drain the planet of it's resources.

Jimmy is not your typical hero. He's in it for himself. He's a smart ass. He does what he needs to do to get by- sort of like a Gabriel Knight-type of character.

The scope of the game so far is pretty ambititous. It is planned to be about the size of Quest for Glory 1. There will be ~60 backgrounds and around 15 characters. Also,  as this is a foreign world there will be ample opportunity for creativity. I have certain ideas for things and I have the land pretty mapped out but nothing is really concrete. The artist will have carte blanche to create the art based on the story and our ideas.



If you are interested please email me at mattrollins@hotmail.com. I have some backgrounds and a few characters already drawn. You can use these or create new sprites based on this art. I also short demo available also.

********I willing be willing to pay the right artist to take on this project. My budget isn't huge but there could be some money for some high quality work. I would love for an artist to join up that would like to do it for fun but I have seen some backgrounds on this forum that are well worth paying for.*************



Thanks,

Matt

Well, I've been A.W.O.L from these forums for some time, only just returning to put up some new backgrounds I'd made and toy with the idea of reviving an old project.

The project was one I was working on back in 2004, safe to say I was much more ignorant back then of how much planning needed to go into an AGS game, thinking I'd pick it up as I went along. Suffice to say, like many projects, it never got off the ground past a few odd looking backgrounds and some badly made characters. The crux of the matter was skill. I didn't have the technical know-how to make the project how I wanted. I was using the default GUI, simple puzzles and pretty much no dialogue as I was put off by even a bit of scripting (now I've actually looked again the dialogue editor is laughably simple).

Here's the thing, I really want to start my project again, I'm a fairly good artist but when it comes to scripting I get confused and end up making a hash of things. I have aesthetic skill, but no head for syntax or numbers.

TL;DR version: I want to start an old project again, but now that I'm older I realise I've no chance of doing it alone.

"This shambling mass of neurosis and iffy skill wants to make an adventure game?" I hear you saying! That would indeed be the case. To achieve my goal I'd want to build a team.

So anyway, the game I'm planning is an episodic black comedy set during World War 2, the 1970's and the 1850's respective of the 3 episodes I've planned out for it.

The Darksiders (A play on words of The Outsiders, sorta like one of those awesome 1940's detective noir films, but also could be a 1960's B-Movie title or a victorian horror novella.)

Right now I'll focus on part 1, as I'm still working out the details for the others.

Part one sees the players assume the role of Mark Idalo, D.I in a run down London Police Station. He's on the case of some thugs running expensive antiques through the Black Market, curiously they don't have any purpose or value on a market where watermelon is worth more that Wedgewood but certain eccentrics show a great interest. The only problem with the goods is the thugs killed several members of a wealthy aristocratic family to obtain them, and the only remaining relative, a mysterious old woman wants them found and her trinkets returned.

Basically I'll be straight. I need someone who knows the AGS Scripting system, a musician, and an additional artist to help me out. I'd be writing and designing as well as doing most of the graphics for it.

To show I'm not one of those "maek my game 4 me plox" people, here's some screens and arty things (I posted most of these in the critics lounge, but I post them here for simplicity):

(http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i211/Cluey3/screen2-1.jpg)

(http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i211/Cluey3/Officeaveclighting-2.png)

Here's some other arty things I do (to prove that I'm at least commited you can check my
ongoing webcomic (http://www.tomturton.com/aramore) in my signature)

Most of these were done a while ago, sort of in a transitional phase:

(http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i211/Cluey3/corri.jpg)
(http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i211/Cluey3/undergroundinblackandwhite.jpg)
(http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i211/Cluey3/bridge.png)

Another short game I made which I never released, but was lost in the midst of time (and my HDD crashing) made in RPG Maker XP (the program ALL the cool kids use)
(http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i211/Cluey3/screen3.png)

TL;DR (again
I want some people to join me in my legion of darkne- adventure game venture.

I need:

- A code monkey (RickJ and Ashen have expressed interest)
- A Musician
- An additional artist for light work like items and such, maybe the odd static character with little more than a talk cycle

If you want your name in the credits after a well written foray through particulary pretty backgrounds and odd British humour PM me.

Indiana Jones unt de Fountain of Youth require a part-time programmer to help us create several translated versions of the demo.

This will require importing the translated strings into the demo game & making sure it all works correctly, and where graphics need to be changed or modified, that they are. Our programmer has gotten too busy to do the translations & we need him focussing on the full game now anyway. There are still several languages which we have the translations for, including German, Finnish, French & more - they just need to be implemented using AGS!

You should have good AGS programming skills and MUST understand how translation implementation works, and the special care that it can need to work effectively on screen. You will also need spare time from now until Christmas.

Think you got what it takes?

email me (see profile) or PM me!

Please note, this is a temporary position. You will be credited on the website and in any new versions of the demo created from this point. You will not, however, be programming the full-game.

I'm in need of processing help for the animation in Prodigal 2. To this end, you will need a basic working knowledge of Photoshop. MUST BE PHOTOSHOP! I don't have time to try and figure out how to do my process in any other programs. You'll need to know how to:

-Run actions
-Do simple line tracing/reinforcement with a mouse/tablet
-Have a basic knowledge of working with layers/alpha channels
-Follow directions

You will be taking frames of video of actors shot in front of a green screen and converting it into cartoons. There is no upper limit to how much you can help. You'll get your name in the credits if you do 10 frames or 100.

If you are interested, email me at real_trisk(at)yahoo(dot)com

synopsis : eace, prosperity, protection. That was all I wanted for the people of my kingdom. Alas all we found was war.



            The enemy, my closest friend and ally and the former guardian of my daughter Akemi, Sen. He separated with a large group of his followers to the northern part of the country .The once proud country of Mikomi was split in two. Soon after Sen’s separation a war broke out in an attempt to conquer each other. This war lasted for three long bloody years before a ceasefire was called, both armies returned to there territory and  kept to themselves for the next 6 months.

           

            As of late however a mysterious force has been pushing its way across my lands and slaughtering and pillaging as they go. I lead my grand army in several attempts to defend against this enemy all of them failing. Realizing that I could not effectively defend my kingdom because of the overwhelming odds against me I decided….that maybe *shivers* I should ask Sen for help. The thought made my spine curl but it was my only option to ensure my peoples continued survival. Not deciding to go myself I sent a mystic impersonation orb to do the job.





Upon the orbs arrival at Sen’s walls I finally got a good long look at how Sen’s people had held up after the war. The walls stood strong, almost as if there had never been a battle fought upon them. His people, going about there daily lives, as if a war had never been fought, and Sen, sitting on his golden throne, surrounded by his harem. Sen had been the more glamorous king, unlike me. Gold armor, pretty girls, a big army, a unbeatable fortress was all he cared about. Now tapping into the orbs power I spawned my image in front of him.





            “Well, well, well…. What do I owe to this pleaser?” Lord Sen smirked.



            “Your sarcasm is in the least bit funny” I responded almost instantly after Sen finished talking.



            “Then what is it you want then?” a serious look crosses Sen’s face.



            “I have come to formally request your aid” Sen’s face twists in confusion as I said this.



            “What? My aid? And why does the “almighty southern empire” need my aid for?” snaps lord Sen with a childish look.



            “You won’t be so childish when this force comes beating down your door, Sen” I snapped back. Sen’s face became angered once again.



            “Guards get him!!!” Sen’s guards descended on me with swords and spears, all I could do was crack a smile as my image disappears and my mind returns back to my body and castle.

Wanted background artist and character artist for a remake of an AGS game

I don't want to name the game as yet publicity, but i do have the original authors consent
The main focus right now is a 3 room demo, with two characters, revamped graphics in the style of CMI or just a general clean up for a larger screen res and to lose the Lucas arts style GUI black space

if you interested drop me a pm and I'll give more details

Hey everyone.

I'm working right now on a Day of the Tentacle fan-sequel called A Tentacle Hero.

The Story: A year has past since the events of Day of the Tentalce. Dr. Fred have made two more tentacles to ease the house-hold, experiments in the lab as well as motel crew. One day, Dr. Fred's evil twin brother, Dr. Dread and his robot cohort, Mecha Tentacle, barges in the mansion to kidnap the tentacles for a world-domination plan. Green Tentacle sends an emergency letter to Bernard, who immediatly goes to the mansion together with his friends Hoagie and Laverne, as well as Benny, his nephew.
Arriving at the mansion Dr. Dread and Mecha finds the tentacles and is about to kidnap them when Bernard pushes Green out of the way and get himself captured. Satisfied with his catch Dread and Mecha returns to their secret lab. Green Tentacle, Hoagie, Laverne and Benny uses Dr. Fred's latest invention, the Phoney-Porters, telephone-booth-like teleporters to get to Dread's lab but the main unit for the porters short-curcuit and forces the porters to land in differnt parts of the world: Green back to the mansion, Hoagie to Dorkshire, England, Laverne outside Cairo, Egypt and Benny to the outskirts of a village in Amazonas, Brazil. It's up to Green and the friends to fix the Phoney-Porters to save Bernard and the Tentacles and the world as well from Dr. Dread and Mecha.

Screenshots so far (I've other screenshots but something went wrong with them, I'll put them up as soon as possible):

(http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/ATH_screenshot.PNG)

The game are in pro-beginning of the production, that is I've made a lot of rooms, done minor scripting and have some animations done and got backgrounds (I've got an background artist, he's Joelphillippage) but the story and the puzzles are mostly done comceptually, maybe around 75 - 80 %. Some rooms, backgrounds, sprites and characters have been ripped from DOTT but most of the game will have original materials.

What I'm looking for: For the moment I'm after sprite-artists and/or animators who can do character and object sprites in DOTT or DOTT-esque style and as well as animate them.
If you're interested, then please contact me as soon as you see this, through messages or e-mail. I would be very grateful if some of you can help me with this BIG project.

Thanks in advice, Mats.

Hi, we're Crystal Shard. You may remember us from such games as A Tale of Two Kingdoms, META, and Warthogs.

(/troymcclure)

Anyway, we're looking for a musician / composer to write the background music for a short fantasy game. One tune, approx 3 minutes. Please PM me for details if interested.

We're looking for beta testers for Anticipating Murder 2, Part I. The game just under 50% complete, so I'd like people willing to test just the first half for now (starting from next week).

It has 3D graphics, and a somewhat mature storyline (so please be 16 or up), with hokey humor. I haven't started to promote it yet, because I want to wait until we're further along. The game is now 38MB uncompressed.

If you're interested, please PM me. :)

The human race is dying off and there is no way to stop it. A race called the Maruk have declared war on all humans and will not stop fighting until all humans are finished.
But one hope yet remains for all humans, but there is a mystery that has to be unraveled  before mankind can finally have peace.

I and Terrorcell (Team leader) need a team that is willing to continue on this game until it is completed.
We need:
*An background artist (who can draw backgrounds similar to 7DAS)and fast!

Your response will be greatly appreciated.
Mail Terrorcell at finalalert@hotmail.com OR just PM (personal message) myself or Terrorcell. (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?action=profile;u=7377)

The current story will be released to anyone that agrees to join the team.

Artist required for several GTA style close-up pictures of people in the hood, etc, for a short game to be released this side of Christmas. If you're interested and have time please PM me. No animation needed, unless you want to try it. CHEERS :)

Well, we're currently looking out for voice actors for

Hello,

This is for Reality-on-the-Norm, and what we're looking for is someone who can do style conversions on existing pieces of art.

Specifically:

A character artist who can create characters based on a general style (see link below for examples).  The characters would need walking and talking frames.
http://ron.the-underdogs.info/images/misc/roncharstyles.gif (http://ron.the-underdogs.info/images/misc/roncharstyles.gif)

A background artist who can, again create backgrounds based on a general style (see link below for examples).

The Mars Initiative
Still looking for help! We need someone who can write the plot (there's already a sketch) and all quizzes.

Here is a screenshot, just to show you that we actually have some graphics done:

Edit: Thanks Auriond!

Hi!
I've been playing around with AGS for a while now and am looking to embark on a reasonably hefty adventure game. Like everyone else, I'd rather not divulge the details, but hey, if I don't, how will I get any help?

The game I'm working on is a Christmas adventure game (which won't be done by this Christmas!) where you play Santa (think puzzles involving machines making presents at the factory, and actually delivering presents into houses). It's planned to be like Simon the Sorcerer - light hearted and funny, but also trying to capture the "magic" of Christmas.

I can handle the programming and music, but graphics are not my forte.

So any background or animation artists, I'd like to hear from you! I'm working with placeholders at the moment, but decent replacement graphics would be fantastic!!!

Examples :
Backgrounds required : Every room in Santas House, the workshop (machines, benches, tools), people's houses

Animations/Sprites : Santa (doing all sorts of actions - walking, turning, bending etc), Mrs Claus, Elves, People, Reindeer, Sleigh, Christmas trees, anything and everything Christmas!

Voice actors (Santa / Mrs Claus / Elves etc) will be applied for at a later date.

If you'd be interested in helping out, feel free to give me a yell : shane.hockings@gmail.com

Cheers!
Shane

Artist needed.
Desperately.

I am making a little christmas-themed game. And it's almost finished (I was making it for the last christmas as well). It's in 320x200, with cute 2d pixelartish graphics, cute little characters etc. You could've seen it - I was demonstrating a demo/beta/whatever a while back.

What I need is a person to draw some (2d) full-screen pictures to use as a cutscenes, dialogues (like in Secret of Monkey Island, I think). No need to animate. Not more than a dozen of pictures (I'm still counting them).

Style? Whatever suffices for small, childish, bright and colourful game. Probably manga or comic-style.

PM. Email. ICQ. IRC. Any IT-related way of contacting me is fine.

I'm looking for some fellow aspiring game makers.

People following the Critic Lounge recently might have noticed: I've been practicing my sprite drawing the last few weeks.

Some of the results of my most recent drawings (Search the Critics Lounge forum for more recent work):
(http://www.jimmyshelter.nl/images/characters.png)


One thing I noticed: I'm getting quicker, but I'm still not very fast. I do want to make a game, but at this rate it's gonna take a while. As you can see I'm a decent sprite artist. I'm a professional programmer, so although I haven't scripted much in AGS, I'm confident I can take that part on me.

What I'm looking for are one or more people, who, just like me, are willing to start making a game and finish it. Especially people who can draw in a style similar to mine and with some great imagination.

Well, enough rambling: Basically I want some sparring partners, who can help me, and who I can help, to start and finish a game.

PM me, if you're interested, or if you have some questions. I'd love to hear from you!

My demo in english so it is necessary competent english tester (im not english).
Mystic first person quest. Engine -  AdventureMaker, 21Mb.

I'm looking for someone who can give me advice on puzzle design and game design in general. My background is in storytelling, so I don't design puzzles too well. So what I need is someone who is experienced in adventure game design, to tell me if what I'm planning is too easy, too difficult or just plain not making sense. Please drop me a PM or email (webmaster[AT]themarionette.game-host.org) if you're interested and I'll provide more details. :)

For all of you who know the classic version of 'RAMPAGE', I am trying to re-create it using AGS but I am having troubles with the scripting/coding.
I am looking for a Sripter/Coder to help with the coding part of the game.
If you would like the job then just PM me or email me at finalalert@hotmail.com.

Thanks, Terrorcell.

P.S. Alot of the artwork is aready finished and only a little bit is left to finish.

Well, as you might be already aware of I'm creating Lone Case 3:Showdown.
I was about to voice act on this game but for the sake of the world I choose not to.
Anyway we have some roles left. Two minor one medium.
And there is Manuel Calavera cameo appearance that needs a voice as well.
PM me if you want a description of the characters or you need more info in general.

Hello,

My name is Peder Johnsen and I am currently working on a short first person game known as Companion..
It was intended to be a MAGS game but because of my lack of art skills (taking to much time with GFX), I decided to take it out of the MAGS competition and get myself an artist.
And I did, Nihilyst joined me and started doing the background art.
It has been in production now for almost a year, though it has had times without progress at all.
(Caused by me moving to another country...)

But now we are back working on it and things are going good!
But we need someone to do the character art!
Here is a background where we need a bartender and a person sitting by the bar drinking. (both aliens as it is on another planet.):
(http://www.sonsofgaia.net/companion/personinbar.png)

As you can read on the picture its not gonna be walking characters, most characters in the game are stood in one place, and will mostly only have idle animations.
Nobody will talk as all the conversation is happening in the main characters head (the characters do talk but its the main character telling the player what is being said.)

So if anyone is interested in doing a try please PM me!


Hoping for a reply!

Thanks,
Peder Johnsen.

UPDATE 01/25/08:  We've found our composer, and our team grows even more uber-international, spanning America, Canada, Cuba and Slovenia! :)  Thanks to all who wrote in!

Hello everyone,

I posted this in the GiP forum but my thread keeps sinking down to the bottom so maybe this will help me :)

I'm looking for a MIDI Music Composer for Castle of Fire (Thread here (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=33319.0)).
The game is completed aside from the music and a highscore screen. I'm very anxious to release this game since I was supposed to release before the end of the year to enter it in the AGS awards :(

I'm looking for a dark, adventurish, midievil-ish, rock-ish and fast-paced soundtrack. Confused? ;)
It will consist of 10 songs. They will all be pretty short so hopefully it won't weigh you down.
I originally wanted the soundtrack to sound like an NES game, this isn't nesessary but if you can do this, then that would be a bonus and I'd love you even more!

For additional inspiration you can always watch the teaser trailer on YouTube (http://youtube.com/watch?v=H2Wj0wde0yc) and come up with something that way.

Please PM me if you are interested. Sample tunes are always welcome.

Thanks in advance,

... Team Recrution!  Horror-ish games, multiple projects so I'm looking for perm help.

I have a writer and a technical guy, I need some one on graphics and sound.  The way my tech is going, I'll need some one to aid/replace him soon, I think..

Here's the spin on those since it's a bad idea to say what I need and run.

Graphics - Must be able to make semi-realistic characters (not TOO cartoony), animate backgrounds and be proficient with effects and gore since we do primarily horror games, and I have 2 horror style plots for 2 projects in mind.

Sound - Must have access to sound editing software and know where to find sound effects (or make them :0).  We'll also need music, so they should be able to compose midi files or some manner of effective music.  This person will need to be introduced to voice actors, to make a work system with them - ALL of my games, due to personal standards, will be fully voice acted.  I will find the voice actors myself.

Tech - While we'll likely be using the AGS engine, some one with programming knowledge or something to that area will be extremely useful.  Plus, I'll need some one to share the compilation work with.

As you may have known, I released the deluxe version of Lost in the Nightmare: 'Save Our Souls' (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=33387.0)  a short time ago.

I had used ripped musics from Silent Hill, Resident Evil soundtracks and some cropped tracks by Rammstein, Tiamat, Moonspell and Radiohead. Now it seems like I should change the musics of my game with some original tracks; as I am afraid of the fact that the game's fame may grow as large as to be 'cared' by the music companies who may dislike my work now ^^; And also I don't want to act so lamely anymore to rip off musics.  (but I think at least it was a good reference of me to be able to finish such a large game).


So I need composers who can create tracks of some certain themes. I can send them the tracks of the original game's music files if they need.

It is also okay for me to use old but free tracks of you or someone else's with their permissions.


Thanks in advance!

Looking for animators for a short game. The more the merrier so I'd practically accept anyone who jumps on the boat.

More info on the game, PM me please.

Contact me: tequila144@hotmail.it

I am gonna start a remake of all of the first 4 Police Quest games and I need an artist to help me come up with backgrounds and 3d models. Preferrably going to make this easily compatible with Vista so newbies can play. I also think I might expand the original story a bit to provide a little more in depth police work. Possibly starting Sonny as a new recruit. but It all depends on how much the artist is willing to contribute.

Ok. At this point for LC3: Showdown

I have contacted two others about this, but I either get snubbed or ignored.  So now I am opening an invitation to all in the community. 

I have wrote down the entire script of the original script only Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy (HHGG).  I.e. the response to every possible action I could think of.  I also have a lot of notes concerning logistics of how the game could work in a point-and-click environment. 

I spent a lot of time working on this, and I would love to see it turn into a game similar to the remade king quest games or A tale of two kingdoms.  The problem is I stink at graphics, sound, and general programming.  I know AGS is designed to not need programming skills, but I think it might help.  Point is, I don't feel I have the time or the ability to make the game it should be.  Those game making teams interested please reply to this forum. 

Those who think HHGG can't be translated to a point-and-click can smell my bum.  However, those who have a little faith and vision, let's make this game great. 

We need a good 2d artist who would do his stuff in 320x200 resolution, we also have a charcater guy and an animator, so the 2d artist's job would be just the backgrounds.

if anyone is interested, send me an email to saso.tms[at]gmail.com and we can talk more

have fun

I want to add to this.  I have the scripting.  Notes, specific results of what happens when you interact (mouse click) with an object or person in a room.  It is VERY thorough. 

What I want is someone to take it over.  Take my notes, recruit a team, and make a great game.  The notes are very easy to follow, and the logistics of every puzzle are explicitly laid out.  Even alternative routes are laid out.  I.e. if you don't feed the dog the sandwich, what happens.  All that needs to be done is the legwork. 

Hope everybody understands what I need.  Thanks for your time.

HI all. I'm recompiling my Roccio 's Quest (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/games.php?action=detail&id=840) with the new AGS version.
After a night fighting with script (dialogs aren't blocking anymore... ARRRGH) it should be fixed now.

I tried the game on my XP, and install/uninstall cycle works fine.

I need someone with Vista to test the installer: it should register/unregister the game, delete saved games AND screenshots when uninstalling. Please check if the big icon works (it's ugly, but it's just a placeholder).
A test with a 98 should be useful as well.

PM me and I'll give you the link where to download it.
Thanks a lot guys!

I need help to translate my game "Quiero Morir" from Spanish to English. I started to translate the game but I'm not happy with my translation. If you want to help me, please, send me a private message.

Thanks!

Ok, so, I have been thinking about a possible remake to Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders, which is an old game made for the Commodore64 and the IBM. I know that there is the "Zak McKracken FM Towns" game out there, which is a 256 color remake. I honestly don't truly know if I can make the game better in any way or not, but I figured "Why not? It would be fun." I do know that the remake will have a different interface, but other then that, I'm not 100% sure of what changes will be made, but be sure that I will try to find some kind of changes I can make to extend the game, enhance puzzles, and so forth.

Summary

Zak McKracken was a normal hack writer working at the National Inquisitor, when he had a strange dream one night. He struggled at its meaning, wondering what a blue alien, an odd device with three crystals, and the most beautiful woman he had ever seen all had in common. His boss had just sent him to Seattle to check on a two-headed squirrel that had been attacking campers there. Little did he know, he would begin an adventure to fight the Caponians and stop them and their Mindbender from taking over the world.

Characters

Zak McKracken - A two-bit tabloid reporter, lonely and generally
miserable.  He aspires to write wonderful works of literature and win a
Pulitzer and find a lovely lady to share his life with.  A strange
dream suddenly turns his life around.

Annie Larris - A great historian, but a little on the snooty side.  She
is searching for artifacts she also had a dream about.

Melissa China (green space suit, black hair) - One of the coeds in
space.  She and Leslie were given dreams that told them how to convert
their van into a space shuttle and to blast off to Mars and wait for
instructions.  So they went and now they're waiting. 

Leslie Bennett (pink space suit, blond hair) - The more adventurous of
the two coeds.  She also received a strange dream but she is a little
disappointed by Mars at first.

So...what I am mostly looking for is artists right now...if anyone can do sprites that would be great...I have tried ripping them myself, but it didn't work...plus, I'm trying to remake the game, so it would only make sense to use new images, right? Anyway, that's the basic plan...I need people who can draw the characters, items, and so forth...I hope to get this game off the ground, mainly since I haven't been able to get any other game off the ground due to lack of graphics. So, the question now becomes: Anyone willing to help?

SERIOUS ARTISTS & VOICE ACTORS REQUIRED FOR SERIOUS GAME PROJECT


"FALLEN LEGEND"


Synopsis:
After the death of his wife, Gary Hollows takes a vacation to Greece to escape the pain and loss. He chooses Kam Island in Greece - a small, quiet island not over-populated by tourists but deep in Greek mythology.

Gary befriends a local girl, Steph Golding, on the minute Greek island. On the first night of the holiday, Gary and Steph are thrown into a mystery of epic proportions when a local girl disappears whilst swimming off the coast.

Legend has it that an island two miles away holds many dark secrets. What's even more interesting is that this island isn't on any map.


Details:
- Thriller/Horror/Adventure/Mystery
- Gary is British
- This 'other' island is to basically be a main character in the game and should be visible in most background art on Kam Island
- Steph, although a local girl, is infact from America
- The mysterious island is called 'Thanatos', meaning 'DEATH' in Greek


Jobs On Offer/Requirements:
- I need background artists who can either create realistic looking, moody backgrounds in either ink, pixels or 3D. Broken Sword-style artwork is fine.
- I need someone who can create character sprites/animation in either ink, pixels or 3D. Again, Broken Sword-style is fine.
- Both Backgrounds and characters MUST be the same medium (either 3D, pixels or ink).
- I need professional-looking backgrounds and characters.
- 640x400 Resolution (or 800x600 if you prefer this)

- I'll also need voice actors for:
  - Gary Hollows (around 35 years old, British, English)
  - Steph Golding (around 25 years old, American)


Remember, this is a serious project so only contact me if you're serious and commited to seeing this project through.

I have a demo of a totally different game here: http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/games.php?action=detail&id=989

PLEASE PM ME IF YOU'RE INTERESTED.

Done, I'm okay.

I DO NOT want to hear that wind or 'Pfft' sound when you speak. Practice makes almost perfect (as no one can be perfect).

Here you can find instructions about making a mic filter (http://www.deansabatino.com/2005/08/21/67/), it works pretty well.

I'm looking for someone who can create 3D objects & characters and export them into .3DS format (preferably, or DXF or OBJ if that isnt possible) for a first person freeware JP adventure game. I've already got a lot of the objects and stuff but there are a few things still to cover, including; Poser characters, that look like people from the films. 3D buildings from the film, vehicles from the film and dinosaurs. Animation is not entirely necessary but anyone that can animate their objects is a big bonus. If you're interested PM me or email me mark at screen7 dot co dot uk for more details :)

Ok so I want to make something so people can have customizable backgrounds.. I need advise from programmers.. I know a little bit of programming.. I need some help, I have a few ideas and I want to figure out which would be the most efficient.  Here are some examples of what the backgrounds would look like:

(http://www.maryclay.com/stuff/sample_1.jpg) (http://www.maryclay.com/stuff/sample_2.jpg) (http://www.maryclay.com/stuff/sample_3.jpg) (http://www.maryclay.com/stuff/sample_4.gif)

I'm making an Indiana Jones game and would like some help making the character sprites (including walk cycle).
If anyone wants to help make the game, could you leave an image of a sprite of Indiana Jones through a PM (personal message).
Thanks  8)

Okay, let's try this one more time...

I am looking for a background artist for my game "Jimmy the Misguided Spaceman". This game is sort of a mix between Space Quest and Quest for Glory and will be  done in the Sierra style with a resolution of 640x400. I already have a great sprite artist ("mouthuvmine" here on the forums) and I can send a short little demo of what we have so far with placeholder BG's. I also have a completed game design document.

A little about the game...

We start with Jimmy flying home in his spaceship. As our hero is entering the atmosphere he encounters some strange interference that causes his ship to crash in an unfamiliar part of his home world, Tardash. Thus, the adventure begins. Jimmy starts out simply trying to figure out a way to get home but soon he begins to uncover a sinister plot to control all of the citizens of Tardash.

Jimmy is not your typical hero. He's in it for himself. He's a smart ass. He does what he needs to do to get by.

I have plans for 42 bg's with about half of those being simple forest scenes. Also,  as this is a foreign world there will be ample opportunity for creativity. I have certain ideas for things and I have the land pretty mapped out but nothing is really concrete. The artist will have carte blanche to create the art based on the story and our ideas.



If you are interested please email me at mattrollins@hotmail.com.

My game Dirty Split is just about finished and 100% playable. Only sounds and cutscenes are missing now.
I need some playtesters and especially proofreaders for the English version.

You can find more information about the game here: http://www.dreamagination.org/
Please drop me a PM if you're interested.  :)

Hello everybody!  :)

As the topic says, I've been looking for some proof-readers (English or American nation speakers). Why? I've been translating Czech fan game pages about GTA game into English. It is quite a big project. And because we aren't English nation speakers, there are some mistakes in our translations. Therefore we need somebody willing to help us to check our texts and join our 3 member's proof-reading team (all of them are members of AGS forum :-) ). I can't promise you any money (we do this web in your free time) but I think it can be good experience for everybody.

If you want to see the orginal Czech pages look here http://www.gta.cz (http://www.gta.cz) , and if you want to see our English project (with new design), look here http://caryk.jepice.cz/gta_eng.jpg (http://caryk.jepice.cz/gta_eng.jpg)

Please, let me know to my e-mail czech.gta@gmail.com, if you are interested in helping us! Looking forward to your e-mails.

Hello there.
Zaphod Beeblebrox and me are searching for someone to do the music on our game. Yes , the Hitchhiker's Guide to The Galaxy(there's a thread in the in production part of this forum). Zaphod is busy doing the rest(he only has three arms) so we would appreciate any help. Your chance to be part of history is now..(actually no that's not true but I just wanted to emphasize).

I am looking for a team who is willing to make a remake of Zak McKracken with me. The update to the game would include updated graphics, AGS game engine, actual Dialogue, small extra features and additions to the story line while still keeping true to the original game. The game will also feature Language translations, and a full talkie.

The main thing about this game and all its graphics is that it will all be open source and widely available for everyone to edit, make their own version or create a sequel with the graphics.

If anyone is interested, please sign up at my Zak site located within my transformers site: zakmckracken.org, eventually, when I have a team, I will update the site a little better.

What I am looking for is for any background and character artists and animators willing to make graphics as a cross between Day of the Tentacle and Curse of Monkey Island.

I am also looking for anyone interested in making a GUI and inventory items. Help with editing the game plot and story are also accepted as team members.

Musicians are also needed at this team. No voice acting accepted as of right now and no translators as of right now either.

If your interested, post here in the sign up thread:

http://www.zakmckracken.org

Thanks!

EDIT: This is what I put in the forum for signing up:
Hello and welcome to the unofficial Zak McKracken Remake Project. We are anxious to get this project underway. But we are looking for some to join our team. This is what we have currently:

*Programmer
*Writer for story and Dialog
*Minor Voice Role- Actor
*Webhost
*Italian Translator

What we need more immediatly:
*Assistant Story and Dialog writer (Looking for Max two more People)
*Background Graphics Artist, Colorer, touchups or all in one. (What I am looking for is a cross between "Day of the Tentacle" and "Curse of Monkey Island". I want the crisp clear graphics of CMI, but the goofy look of DOTT). An example of this can be found here: http://energon-plant.com/zakmckracken.org/zak2room.jpg

As far as background artists go, I can use as many as possible. There will be a process for this. We sketch the background based on what we need. We then See how we can improve it.Then trace it onto a digital image basically. Touch it up. Color it. Add shading and other needed essentials. Then we touch it up for one more final time.

After the main background is done, we do the same for objects in the room, like a bed or a desk, etc.. These will then be placed as objects in the room in the game engine.

*We are looking for Character artists.
*We are looking for animators for helping with both the background/character/gui/inventory animations as well as with animators for cutscenes.
*We are looking for musicians. We basically want to modify the original music content, but to sound more modern and with a mix between and alternative and hard rock sound.
*Anyone looking to help with designing a GUI and inventory items.

Needed, but not as badly:
*Translators for:  German, Spanish, French and several other languages.
*Voice Actors. Just remember some of these characters in the game: Zak, Annie, Leslie, Melissa, Caponians and Caponian king... There are several other characters, but these are the main ones.

In order to join, here are the steps:
1) Find the right thread for the job your looking for.
2) Sign up and post what role you want to have in that department.
3) Provide on the forum, a link to some samples and try to wow me. In other words, make it the best you and show it to me. Just because your work may be incredible does not mean that you will automatically be accepted to the team. We are looking for a unique style for music, acting and art. Please provide more than one or two samples of your work. We want to see that you can be consistent in your work. So, if your applying for backgrounds, draw two or three of the typical work you can do. Same with Voice Acting and music.
4) Wait for me to get back to you.

What are the requirements to join the team:

1) Noone will get paid. If someone offers a donation to you, thats fine. But dont tell me about and dont sell any work related to the project.
2) Since noone is getting paid, I do not require constant work from you guys. I would like a status on what you did during the week every week, not to pressure you, but just to know that your still interested in the project. We understand that life comes at you fast and you have family, religion, school and many many other things. So I wont be upset if work doesn't progress as quickly. I am full aware that this project may take years to complete. So there is not pressure.
3) You must be a team player. Even though we have programmers and writers, it doesn't mean that you cant voice your opinion about features or about story lines etc... We all need to get a long and be able to communicate well. Everyone is important on the team.

Tips on rapid progression of the project:
*Set aside time in your schedule. Take 5, 10, 15, 20, 30 minutes a day to think about what you want to do and how to do it. Then once a week or two weeks, take an hour or two and work on the task.
*Communicate with team members
*Accept criticism.
*Try to find a way to keep yourself motivated for the project. Possibly play the original game over and over. Look at fan projects, fan stories, fan art. Think of the outcome once the project is over. It could be something to add to your resume. It could be a reason for you to be famous in the end. Perhaps if this goes well, we can create a commercial game together. Find ways to motivate yourself continuosly.
*Improve on your skill with PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE!

Benefits of joining the team:
*Your remaking the greatest game of all time.
*Your gaining experience and adding something to your resume.
*Your improving on your skill.
*You will get your very own @zakmckracken.org email address
*You will be mentioned in the credits
*And surely there will be much much more.

So, if your interested in joining, please sign up in the forum. Thanks for your hard work. Any private questions, please email me at joey@zakmckracken.org

You can learn more about my game here (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=33757.0), but I -really- could do with a background artist on the Eighth Doctor adventures. I don't really need a lot of backgrounds for the first adventure, but if anyone fancies a stab at any of the following could they PM me:-

- view of city
- hotel exterior, interior and rear of
- generic corridors
- command room

Otherwise I fear the later stages of the game will look like this:-

We're looking for a 3D modeler for a Myst style adventure game
Its mainly architectural, building and interiors

The game is panoramic and high res so a reasonable quality is called for

There's actually two games a mystery and horror

Drop me a PM if interested ;)

Update
Okay what I'm looking for is an additional part time designer.
Also I need voice actors, a male and a female. The male would take on 2 roles as would the women, meaning each voice actor needs to ability to realistically alter their voice for the second role.

The game is called "Paper Memories" and the plot is a guy who wakes up one day and finds he has no memory of who is or anything about himself, anything further would be a spoiler and I haven't worked out the entire storyline yet.
Until now I have been using almost entirely free(not illegal) sprites for the game but I feel it's time to create a team and then get a name for that team. A partnership or collaboration that means it's no longer my game but the team's game.

For information on my game as well as screenshots please visit my

If you are interested please let me know via

I have to say, that's the most cliched story concept of all...

Well my blog pretty much explains without giving too much away that it's not as clichéd as you may think. Of course the basic beginning concept has been used many times, I'm not claiming it isn't, it's how a storyline progresses beyond that beginning and ends up that shows whether it's just a copycat act or has original ideas.
