I have an idea for an RPG that needs to be built from the ground up.
What I really need is people with some vision, preferable if that vision extends beyond the end of your nose. Right now I'm just looking for people to come up with new concepts.
A few things I'm working towards, is putting the player in the game in various ways. The ultimate way of accomplishing such a feat is via philosophical and psychological storytelling. The basic idea of the game is to entwine religious idealism with astrology, philosophy with reason, and human emotion with the player.
When it comes to graphics, I would like a surrealistic environment worth staring at (remember how Myst and Riven were?) while still being able to get around the game and accomplish things. I'd like many things happening at once down to trees doing something other than sitting there...a nice sway in a breeze for example.
I'd like to do this in a 1024x768 resolution, and perhaps the Direct X stuff will be done by the time the game is finished. There's a lot to do, and a lot I'm not comfortable talking about here, much less showing anyone anything. This is to be a very large project. If you aren't interested, please keep your comments to yourself.
Thanks for your time,
~Rory

~ Hey, i like the sound of the project your thinking of.. It sounds much like my idea of a good RPG. Where the player gets uber involved, and they learn the natural ways of the laws and phisics inside of the game, almost understanding it as their own world. Kinda thing.
Is this, birds eye veiw you have in mind.. Like early Final Fantasy? Like change screen to go into battles and such.
Or platformer style?
Have you got any story planned? And also what do you actualy want help with.. You say you want people to come up with new concepts and have vision. But does that meen theyd have no real dealing with the game? Or what?
BTW! 1024x768 Is a masive resolution to have big graphics and lots going on, or swaying trees all over the place with clouds and tifa's... I meen clouds going past the screen n' stuff. I recently found i had this problem with just 640x480! i suggest having a lower resolution but changing the resolution at start of runtime.
Also note that codeing RPG's is a massive process, and getting the ENTIRE engine down first is a big must. Thers so much work. Anyway, if you need any help with graphics or codeing, i can help... Im sure i could help with some concepts aswell, i'm a Final Fantasy fan so my idea's generaly have that strange concept you sound like your looking for.
Anyway, if not then good luck anyway with your game!
dont make me divide by zero...
