This should be a pretty large game and to increase the game play would be great. You are suggesting not to use the click and click again to move method right?

yep thats it, check out the site i mentioned, thats the sort of thing im talking about. its sweet
That would make the game a lot more effecient and fun. That is probably a better method so we will do it that way. Thanks for the tip.
no problem, and the code shouls be almost the same. i posted some stuff like that does that a while ago, but im sure you can modify your existing code, ayway, see ya, im tired and need some sleep
magnetos: If you could please create a background for the game. We want it to be set in space with occasional planets floating by in the background. If you want to add some space junk that would be great
you mean a dynamic background right?
but what is the perspective?
is like my game background?

please clarify

i would like ot help, your game sounds kool.
i am an average actionscripter, average vector graphic designer in flash, and an imaginative person. so if there is a position left in your group of staff, i will fill it
If you still need another graphics designer, well, I'm not that good in it, but my friends say I am. Don't augh because I'm only 15 years old, but I would love 2 help you out
Do you have a logo for it, or would you like me to create one for you? I will then create complete visual identity of the game....
funny game is called starvision....i got registered http://www.starwarp.co.yu ...:) we can use it (or not). you choose...
I agree with OkieDokies, but I do think he's being a bit harsh. You can't be so prejudice.
Anyways I'd love to hlep you guys out with some programming and maybe a few graphics here and there. But get ICQ Maplethorpes. Not to much to ask if you want some decent programmers to help you. ^_^ . Also, Maplethorpes... The true term for title screen is a splash screen.

Well magnetos I will have the veiw be looking down at the main character. So I need a veiw looking down( from our veiw) looking at the stars. If you still do not understand I will make a smalle example. For the splash screen here is the link for the .fla to the title:

And for the others who want to help we have it under control so far but if I have an x-tra assignment I'll lay it out and let you do something with it. But thx for the thought.
I'm not sure why it is easier for some people to critize befor anything has been done then to wait and see anything. I hope you will change your veiw on this. Thx.
I know it may be coming slower because of school and all but slowly and surely we SHOULD get it done. Thanks for all the help.

let me know if this is what you mean
the logo thing is just an idea might be used for something else on the game
see ya
mmagnetos
please guys, i have seen this so many times, don't use the control button in your games. Us Mac people use the control button for another reason when in a flash movie
Use space bar or something
why not use your mouse click movement D&D game similar to balders gate, only simpler? your engine probably suits a top down, item collecting, "pause" type RPG. ive always wanted to do this- but lack the skills or the time.i am not a fan of D&D, but like the simpler versions protrayed in PC games.
neway, just a thought
"i can help by over reacting and crapping my pants over something that isn't even a start to the game."

i can do some stuff cause i need something to do. school is starting up and im going to boarding chool so i might not be too active (only posting on weekends and odd study hours) but i would still like to help. (i will be active once i get a laptop:) cant wait)
Hi Maplethorpes,
I don't mean to brag, but I can do some serious actionscript, AND produce some serious graphics. I'm working on some hot arcade games at the moment AI, animation, design, engine etc. etc. The only thing I can't do is a soundtrack, and I've pretty much accepted that if I want it done properly, I'm going to have to pay for it.
I am curious, though, if you're looking for graphics and coding people, what exactly are YOU going to be doing? I'm not trying to piss on your parade, but it does sound like you've thought of an idea for a game (I'm sure it's great) and now all you need is someone to do all the hard work, coding, design etc. etc. etc.
One glimmer of of hope, here, is that you're an excellent sound producer/musician, as you haven't asked for someone to do this for you. I hope this is the case, as we may be able to exchange favours......
My skills are tradeable, if you have some....
I agreeQuote:

Your in luck. I am pretty good at soundtracks:) Just tell me what you need and we can trade talent. magnetos can you plz post the .fla. For some reason my computer can't handel swf files online. However you could e-mail it to me at [email protected]. Thanks everyone.
That background is really cool! :) That logo is also really cool! :) 1 thing about the background...that astroid sitting there, could you make it like loat around the screen. That's really great! I'm not sure if the other people are working on what I asked them too so not to overwhelm you but do you think you could make the ship? If you do you have to make it looking from the top. I will give you further instuctions if you except. Thx!
You're creating a flash game but your PC can't handle flash movies online??
Sorry, you just have to laugh at the irony!
Good luck with the project.
hey there
as you can see i have a very vivid imagination but as i told yuo before i am not a programmer and i am strugling
with actionscript right now
(and the english language too)
i can create anything you like that concerns the artistic side of the game
but what i suggest you before you proceed any farther is this
use a simple even ugly background you can import the swf that i sent you and use the graphics (its not protected)
focus on the gaming various stages make it everyhing work
first and then i could fix the graphics to make it look nicer
see i am like a house painter i paint after the house is built not before
one other thing to consider is size (size does matter hi hi)
who is game aimed for?? 56kb user ? cable user? everybody? bush?
right now i am working on my own game which is already 125kb
and that for some people is huge!!
as for the ship i got one that i draw a while ago ill send you the fla
ahem .... you better fix that pc
ciao
