Such interesting art and gameplay, I loved it!

Woohoo! Amazing stuff 

I'm a solid maybe. I really like the theme, and I have an idea, so it's whether I have time this month to complete something playable. Good luck all!

Great game Retro Wolf! 
I especially enjoyed the AI hologram art, and the theme idea.

Great games everyone! I liked the different takes on the theme.

Anyone out there who's collaborated with artists on games?

I've been working on a full-length game, and it's becoming apparent, I'm going to need to recruit an artist or two.
I've done as much work upfront as I can (story, puzzle map, small ugly demo), because I figure that will give an artist an idea of the size of project (ie. number of characters, backgrounds, cut scenes, etc...).
I haven't sketched out scenes or created storyboards or anything like that, but I could. I just don't know what would be most helpful.

Does anyone have any advice or tips on working with artists? Or, if you are an artist who has worked with game devs, was there anything they did that was especially helpful?
I want to give artists room for their own interpretation and ideas, but having things planned out seems like a good idea too.

Thanks for reading!

I love this place. You guys crack me up. 

I can be backup, if you still need a female voice.

This tripped me up too. There are a few things to try....

Read (look/interact) the book on the table, make sure to talk about everything with Dorothy, look and interact with the tin man.

Nice cat!
I'm feeling motivated to try some hand drawn stuff, so it would be fun to have a mix of art this month. Assuming my scanner still works once I pull it out of the garage.

Oh of course, thanks!!

Really nice game! I'm stuck near the end.

I got the bucket of water, with a rope tied to it.

I can't figure out what to do next.

Great interpretation of the theme. I was wondering where it would go.

I'm going to give it a shot! I've been wanting to learn how PAMELA/lip sync works, and snarky has a nice looking module.
I have a story idea... now I just need some puzzles to go with it.

Looking forward to playing all of these, they look great!

Good or not.. just finishing a game.

I have uttered "Aaaah, life giving water, nectar of the gods", on more than one occasion. Usually after a server refills my water... much to my wife's dismay.

Ah thanks for the birthday wishes everyone!

Fishing!! Those are some beautiful animations.
I feel for you having to deal with b.s. comments. Really sucks.

I've used the plugin referenced above, and it's worked great for me
