Hello,
My name is Cody Smith I am a pixel artist who has been working on a set or resources for a game concept I've been wanting to pursue for years. I wish to invite you to join me in expanding the resources. As I am no professional artist my skill set is limited so I had the idea to seek out hopefully like minded individuals who would like their hand in my cause. I am not making any hopes for this to get past this resource phase, I just want to expand this idea I've had for a couple years into something tangible. Even if you aren't interested in joining I'd like to hear your opinions. I look forward to hearing your response.

Here is a abstract of my concept:
A game that has more life to it than any other of its type.

• Top down in the perspective of Legend of Zelda
• Generated terrain that can support different cultures and creatures
• Plant life that expands and detracts giving a sense of a living world
• Animals that have populations, dens, territories, and interract with their surroundings
• Migration of creatures and people
• the people start with nothing, but soon settlements are built...the land cultivated...roads built...trade and war
• the world will progress with or without the actions of the players
• technology and magic coexisting and slowly advancing
• phases of the world that go through cycles of progress, famine, crysis, and peace
• player and npc made quests
• guilds formed by towns that specialize in what the culture are experts at
• skills are either learned through experience or taught by others
• background story based on player interractiion in the early game and player input during character creation
• limited supply shops, economies, trade, jobs, crafting, and professions
• dungeon crawling, puzzle solving, princess saving, cave exploring, location naming, map making, mountain climbing, adventure parties, monster looting...the list goes on
• friends, partys, town building, PvP, PvE, Raiding, Scaling Difficulty, Balancing systems
• Recruiting, Bounty Hunting, Spying
• Falconing, Scouting, Swimming, Boating, Fishing, Hunting, Trapping, Farming
• Unique Items, Player Made Items (limited but still there), Full Trade, Hybrid-able combat system (realtime)
• Letter, Book, and Music writing
• Instruments and fanfare.
• Non-Combat required (Other play styles then just combat)
• Long-form days (~4-8 ingame days per real day), Time in game based on actual time
• seasons and weather
• events
• single player and multiplayer functionality
• always evolving game (not necessarily expanding always)
• Mounts & Pets (Swimming, land and flying)
• Machines & Archane Creations
• Afterlife
• Towns have Graveyards and Mourning the death of fellow NPC
• Build a name for yourself...or don't
• Open to suggestions

Feel free to message me at anytime, and I can start filling you in on the concepts of the project. I look forward to hearing from you, thank you for your time.

Yes rpg perspective closely akin to minish cap but a higher resolution. email me R3ngad33@gmail.com

I also love the idea of non-combat stepping away from generic games. I think it would be a hit. Please email me airbear567@gmail.com.

Previous was for the bag/inventory/backpack gui
This is the in-game gui overlay. Left button brings up the weapons menu, right brings up the backpack gui.
