Unfortunately this position isn't going to be filled by me. 

But good luck to whoever fills. And good luck with the game.

If I had more time I would gladly take that position (I do not have much experience in game programming exept GM myself but I have had lots of contacts who do) but I dont.

I  find this an interesting prospect, and the fact that no action lists are being made kinda bugs me. Most people don't use these, but those that do often have excelerated gameplay and graphics. Each object, sprite, monster etc. in the game could have a list of actions he/she/it can make/do and then sprite for each of these. Just a suggestion from a kid who likes pa and games.

what he says is that we need sprites(obiusly). and put those that we needs in a list would help us to have an idea of the current progress/organization.

i.e:

PJ:
-Jump
-die
-idle
-pick

Monster
-attack
-die
-move
-idle

etc.

The project status is now: "On Hold"

Because this game is not Grand Theft Auto. It is a platformer.

what part of "original" or "platformer" was not clear?

A more feasible idea, if people are still thinking about the project, is to make a mod of "The Underside."

The full game isn't out, but the mod tools have been released. The author will hopefully add support for new enemy/weapon types...which would be necessary for a PixelJoint mod. The game honors the pixel.

I agree with the idea of creating a list of things (actions/monsters/characters) so that people can get a clear idea on how to start. If we can get some good ideas in, there is less of a chance this project will be dropped.

A mod would save time, but I do not know if that's what everyone had in mind.

Yes, I agree. Unfortunately, there is no art lead to create the specifications and the project is "on hold" indefinitely.

Nice try amigo, but no cigar.

You only have four posts on these forums and you haven't shown us that you have the experience to lead.

It's a community project you can't just slap up a post saying "Official" in the title, declaring there will be 8 worlds, and willy-nilly ask for people to give you pixel art.

It was not about organization (well, slightly on the art side). It was mostly that the project is too large for one person to head.
