Starting A Amatuer Game Making Group

[Scott Evin Williams]

O.k Well essentially, its your game one of them you want to put forward as a game, you are responsible for:
* Getting together a team for your game.
* Sorting out an NDA or as Tsloper said a collaberative agreement.
* setting up an SVN so all game changes automatically can be uploaded and downloaded for the team involved.

I'm near 28 years old (23 August), I assume your in-charge and want the credit for the game whilst giving others credit for their part making the game, I can draw anything, taken lead on the graphics for 2 games already, you havn't e-mailed me with a Plan Of Action (POV).

So e-mail me with the Game you have in mind and i will help you because i've been in the media game a long time so i will next expect an e-mail to explain the game, the graphics, the software you want to use and we will take it from there, I live in the U.K. so bere that in mind if you prefer a fast response.

Your project leader has to do it. If that's you, then you have to do it. Read that link.

Frew95 made the initial post, there was no more information to it than, i want to make my first game.
So as far as i' know he/she is in charge and Tom you are 100% correct, priority is my TIGA course.
so's not to waste anyones time maybe you should PM Frew95 and help him get up to speed.

I'm helping him in this public forum. I don't do free private help.

[Scott Evin Williams]

Unless he can contact me direct, i can't help.

This sounds awfully similar to most "teams" run by someone who does nothing other than direct others to do as he wishes.

[Scott Evin Williams]

This "project" is null and void to me unless frew95 pulls his? finger out, if he/she can't be bothered to lead, i'm simply out.

Scott, if you're looking for a project to cut your teeth on, why don't you go to the gamedev.net forums, check out Help Wanted there. Lots of guys like frew (and even ones who sound a little more with-it*) there.

*(You want someone who's going to contribute more than just ideas, and who doesn't use words like "Heyy ppl iv had quite alot of ideas" in the project pitch.)

Thank you Tom (hope you don't mind me calling you that), I work with a team willing to do there part when alls planned out and passed to the relevant sections, looking at the site now, very good stuff.
