64 digits GM collab?

Posted by mazimadu on Feb. 21, 2007, 9:15 p.m.

I was thinking, what if two or more designers come together to make a game (not one make and loads test or a group under one name).

It makes one wonder how the author column would look like. Surly the moderators would find a way to insert all the authors into the column, or at least the 1st four.

I know that there are a few games that have been collabed (such as clysm and darthlupi's

velella) but I don't think there are many on this site. I would also like to make a game collaboration with some of the users. I don't care what genre, lets just have fun.

Thats a good question. Wonder if thats a feature in V3.

Collaborations are hard to maintain.

Even though this lacks quantity, I feel it has quality. So it will stay on the front page. =]

Hmm… collabs are nice… they can be fun, and they're more guaranteed to be carried through than your average solo project…

Um… no.

Generally in the GM world, major collaborations are only attempted by ZOMGMMORPG types. And they never finish anything.

Of course, there's also the occasional EO collaboration, which of course is pretty good. But in general teams are very difficult to maintain unless the members are constantly meeting in person- internet collabs usually don't work.

A dead project as far as I remember… or at least there's silence surrounding that.

Here are two collabs I can think of off the top of my hat:

<a href=http://64digits.com/games/index.php?cmd=view_game&id=2092>Hunter's Island</a>

<a href=http://64digits.com/games/index.php?cmd=view_game&id=366>Artex</a>

Here's a Question.

If a collab is posted, will all the authors be listed?

Yes. Next question.

Off topic. When can we expect the full Kyle Game?

I like what I have on my hardrive now.

-Kyle can double Jump

-Jump through platforms both ways

-Upgrade shots.

-Fight more bosses

-Use the jetpack from the cancelled Kyle Jet Racers game.

The flash player looks great and is going to break the depth barrier for the Kyle series, allowing us to delve a little deeper into the Squares lives. I haven't checked yet, but you should post your demos again. I don't think everyone knows what a game this is going to be. I'm not saying this just because I'm your friend. I'm saying this because I'm a huge platform game fan, and this is a game that needs to be seen.

Keep working Mazi.
