BluDragon uses a Life Pot on Cave Story: Online!

Let us review what went wrong for this project last time:
1) I was the only one coding, this is my fault as I often try to work things out on my own, and don't like to ask for help.
2) I had no clue what the hell I was doing.
3) I didn't get you guys involved, all I did was bounce ideas off of you, and then Ryo and I would test.
4) This project was too big for just me to handle, and my code was sloppy (Ask Ryo how sloppy it was.)

Now, enough bashing on myself.

What I want to do this time is to get help.
Colton is gonna help me with the multiplayer aspect of the code, until then I'm on my own for now.
So, I'm sending a 'call to arms', anyone who can code, sprite, write music or even a decent story, I'd like your help.
We'll need some way to communicate (Steam most likely), and probably a dropbox folder so that we all have the latest version

Anyone who does help will get a decent reward in the more playable stages of the project. As of right now, that reward is undecided.

Careful of the Critters, they tend to be buggy.

I'm currently making my own game (along with Drone who's helping with the artwork  ), but if you want I can write a decent story.

[Saltonara]

So uh
Is this co-op, deathmatch, or both?

That'd be awesome. Like I said, anyone who can help, please do so.

So uh

Well, that'd mostly depend on what you guys want.

[Uncle Woody]

deathmatch to me sounds more fun.Test your CS skills out and see if you can survive.
But wouldnt everyone complain about the nemesis and super missle launcher?

[Spiralstorm]

What should the story mainly be about? How in depth do you want me to go? Any specific characters you have in mind? Dialogue?

[Saltonara]

Both really.
There could be a co-op story mode, and then there can be a deathmatch mode with many sub-modes.

Well, those might not even go in the game.
I dunno.

Characters should be your own, and go as in depth as you want. Dialouge should be limited to the Yes/No that we know and love from cavestory.
of course there's probably going to be ingame chat between players.

[Spiralstorm]

I don't remember any yes/no from Cave Story.

I don't remember any yes/no from Cave Story. 

when you talk to curly, and some other people, they ask you a question.
but some other people would be more qualified to give the specifics.

If you go deathmatch, rigging the GG2 engine to use Cave story physics would be pretty simple, and I have a decent amount of the weapons done already. Rigging up levelable weapons is simple, too.

Both at this thread and at the inevitable wave of OH GOD TAIMAT from those who haven't been paying attention outside of GC the past few days.

He got tired of sleeping in his coffin and woke up.
I dunno about you but I think this guy was like one of the best admins/developer/mods back then.But i barely know him so

[AcidLead]

1) I was the only one coding, this is my fault as I often try to work things out on my own, and don't like to ask for help.
beware, all good things come to those who know people
2) I had no clue what the hell I was doing.
>implying you do now
3) I didn't get you guys involved, all I did was bounce ideas off of you, and then Ryo and I would test.
Well we weren't much more helpful than "Okay cool" ourselves
4) This project was too big for just me to handle, and my code was sloppy (Ask Ryo how sloppy it was.)
It's still an incredible juggernaught due to needing to overcome/placate massive CS fanbase all at once. But hopefully your coding has leveled up since you last worked.

Goddamn I may think it's bound and determined to fail but I'll watch it anyways to see what happens.

Better grab some goddamn Doritos while you're still getting prepped.
