Community game project?

dagcrack · Post by **dagcrack** » Wed Mar 16, 2005 3:04 pm

We can join a small team, work on a showcase game as you said, and if it turns out well, next project should be a commercial title. Thing is, if you already got experience on game dev, or if you're a musician, or programmer, and you would like to work on something like this, plus, knowing you'll have to "live" with other's points of view, suggestions, etc. Theres no need for a freeware project, maybe let it be shareware. But if theres previous experience, better.

Do I make any sense? I woke up at 3am and couldnt go back to bed since then

i could do some music in FLStudio.. i have been using it a while and i think i could make a bit music of course 2 musicians would be nice. I could make a sample maybe later.

That would be nice!.
What about Sound FX?
I could work on some effects but dont look much at me

I can't do music and my art well lets say the skill is negilable..
I can be one of your programmers although we all here are

I really like the idea of team here getting people together for this showcase game
We will have dagcrack as the project manager after all he did start all of this

first of all i will say that i only used 40 minutes on this. The music for the game will of course be better if im chosen to help making it. Besides, its hard to make creep music! I just wanted to see how i could make it and i think its ok for creep games heh... hear for yourself but keep the 40 minutes in mind

creep.mp3 [1.81 mb]

of course i could make better music if i spend more time on it heh this game project isnt exactly supposed to be finnished in 40 minutes so ill bet i will have more time

Thats Pretty good for 40 mins it doesn't sound too creepy its more techno than creepy, I like it

Relaxing!
I'd say its good for a puzzle game because this type of music gives ambient but does not bother you while playing. So not bad for just 39 minutes (I got tired of reading "40 minutes"

)

yeah might be for a puzzle hehe well it was just a sample to show i wasnt using premade sounds etc

[i made the melody myself it just came up when i was playing with my keyboard. the "bell" sound is made by me with the 3*oscillator in FL studio, as well as the organ. Other sounds were some following FL studio [dist guitar is made with a generator in FL studio. a generator is a sound generator heh]

well glad you at least didnt think it was far far out for being called a melody heh

FL = FruityLoops?

I used to play with this nice software a while back ago (a LONG while ago)
back in version 3 oh well, they are in version 5 now, right?

What about cubase? tryed it?

puzzle games are simple in my mind from what i see but the music you do fool would fit somthing like that then again i have only heard one of your songs

dagcrack · Post by **dagcrack** » Wed Mar 16, 2005 6:00 pm

Well it was just a quick demo/sample, that doesnt mean he can only do that type of theme / music

true

yup FruityLoops 5.0. Never tried Cubase but i have heard of it. But i must say FLStudio has grown to maybe number 1 pc studio for making music. And its not having an insane price either!

Well I would like to hear game ideas before anything else

@PB: Have you tryed the starwars game Republic Commando?, that one has different gameplay, you cant say it doesnt. Just so you see not everything is the same
