I’m looking for two partners for a second game (and may be for the longer run). More precisely I would be happy to team up with one artist/designer and one marketing/producer/PR person. I would assume business management and programming. Ideally to work on a small project that hit the market in four to five months. Or at least a first playable. I can probably get us some financial support but don’t consider this as a paid position or a job.There is also few revenue that we can generate from Aztaka (linux version, etc.). Please drop me a line if interested.

Regards.

Anyway, heres the basic of the idea...

its a 2d top down sandbox survival game set on a world complete with massive decaying cities, mutant zombie creatures, hidden bunkers and a few other features, and the point of it is to survive. However, in the center of the map, a black hole starts from the beginning, and over the course of 1-2 hours real time, it will consume the whole world, so it implements the idea of evacuation, a constant threat, nomads and decided what to take when you need to leave quickly.

So the problem is, do you guys think the game will be bad if your death is on the clock, that you will die within an hour or two and theres no way of stopping that, unless you die sooner by zombies? Would love to hear what you think

Thanks alot

Problem. Players can end up with millions by game end, 1415K doesn't make sense. Any clever solutions other than scrap the whole K thing and go back to printing whole dollar amounts, ie. $1,415,000 instead of 1415K. ]]> Indie Related Chat lennard http://forums.indiegamer.com/showthread.php?35392-dumb-question
