Team name: Lygon Development Dev Team

Project name: Legend of Lygon

Brief description:
Legend of Lygon is a upcoming adventure mmorpg. The game has been constructed solely by me for 7 months and if all goes well and I get a graphics team together so I can legally distribute the client (I am using RMXP graphics as filler at the moment.) I hope to have a small beta sometime this summer. The game is planned to have a set game play style and then build off the core of the game with user feature requests. To achieve this, an in-game law system that would allow users to petition and vote for feature requests giving the development team a precise idea of what players do and don't want. Of course some the development team may have to tweak or deny some of the requests to keep the game balanced and challenging. And of course the game will also contain the standard shops, quests, monsters, bosses, trading, etc.

Target aim:
Freeware.

Compensation:
As a free mmorpg there would be no money for compensation.

Technology:
This game is targeted at windows based systems but could potentially be run on linux using wine (mac I don't know about). The game is programmed in VB.Net 2008 edition.

Talent needed:
I am looking for 2 pixel artists that can product graphics that are about RMXP quality. The terrain tiles are 32x32 and sprites are 32x64 (non wearable items are 32x32 wearable are 32x64). The game is still under development so there is not a huge rush on pushing out GFX.

Team structure:
Sawyer: 7 Months. Lead Programmer.

Previous Work by Team:
I have programmed simple 2d games ranging from the classic guess a number between 1 and 10 game to a Player vs Player Shooting game. Hopefully if this goes well I will have time to venture into the world of 3D game programming.

Additional Info:
This game is still in development. I have been working on it for about 7 months now and it has come along way for programming in my free time. As summer draws near I should have more time to work on this, but I'm really hoping to have a small playable demo when summer starts, giving me more time to build in player suggestions and fix bugs.

All of the skills were stolen from Runescape.

those are basic skills found in almost all mmo that have skill's in them.

HAHA correct, I guess he would have to blame oblivion for using them to? Oh also WOW.

But seriously on a related statement, I think you should add a little more complexity to the greenery, and other scenery related objects such as buildings, make it look a little jazzy, I very much liked the cities in the old Pokemon ruby and sapphire games, for a sprite game I still felt like I was in a big city.

That would make your game look even better!

I haven't been making very detailed maps because all those tiles and sprites are all RMXP tiles which will not be used in a for release. I'd much rather not take chances with enterbrain coming after me. But I could through together a more fancy demo map.

No ones going to come after you if you use rmxp tiles but to many people do use them

I have never heard of EBrain coming after people for using their graphics and now that they have VX or whatever they probably stopped caring. But as you said lots of people use them and those games look to me as cheap and generic. I would like my game to have a more professional and unique look to it.

I might be able to help...

PM me with your ideas

It only looks "cheap" if you can't map good

No they look cheap in general. I got to say the in game voting system for future updates is a nice idea. Perhaps giving members some bonus exp for voting so they would actually do it. Anywho it looks great, you are doing it mostly in VB it seems, did you start from scratch?
