Hi peeps, Im puting together a Freespace Universe based advanture game. It'll be done using the Advanture Game studio editor, which is neat and is freeware. Nothing is laid down yet, so if your interested in participating in helping create the story, making the all-too-simply done Transitional movies, Scripting, Rendering backdrops or contributing in any way you can Plz post your support here.
Youll find the Studio at: http://ags.adventuredeveloper.com/ (//"http://ags.adventuredeveloper.com/")
Its currently Offline. Being in the community is fun, but I find constantly thinking about ships etc can become monotonous, a project like this provides an output for Freespace boosted creativity much like the recent Freespace RF MOD's have done.
There is very little work per person with a decent team working, and helping with this AGS game wont intrude on your current Proj. Or real life, its intended to be long term, so you do a bit when you feel like it. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)
Im sure everyone has a scene or idea for one a game such as this, and each and every one is appretiated. So plz voice your Support and who nows where this could take us.
Thanks for listening.

Sounds pretty good - a decent plan. But please remember to set your sights low initially - you don't want to get ahead of yourselves and go for something huge that you can't complete. Try something small, like an introduction, first. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Aren't those rather outdated? How about an online forum game?

A forum game might work as well...... it all depends.
If there's actually interest in a PBF, I can open a private forum for it. Personally, I've thought about making a FS PBEM game a while back, but it rather fell by the wayside.

Though Old adventure games are still rewarding and its possible to introduce huge amount of atmos, using sound and light.
PBEM sounds good, but I havent the foggyist as to how to go about something like that. How would you work it?
Ive seen online forum games... erm nice idea but not my cup of tea, they can get very construed and end up folding a few months in.
Ive got a few Games lined up for my site, hehe here's one to get exited about:
