[MMO] Ataxia Online: Needs talented people.

Project name: Project Ataxia Brief description: This game has been in development for a months now, it's going well. It is basically an old skool, 2D MMORPG sort of like Zelda. There are many features, like mining and blacksmithing, ect. The fighting system is lots of fun, and there is a developing economy. Target aim: Right now, it's beta open. I have marketed it on many different beta sites, and am looking to do increased marketing soon. The target aim is ALL AGES. Compensation: Possibly after shareware. Otherwise, it would be a hobby type deal for now,. Technology: Windows currently, soon to be macintosh. I'm developing the game in Macromedia Director. Talent needed: Mappers: I really need help with building the game world. I have implemented a world edit so no programming is required, just attention to detail and some really creative ideas. I think this is the most fun part, creating the world for players to play in; and I want it to be huge and intricate. Which means you would be creating a large world for players to interact with. Beta testers: One of the positions of utmost importance, people to actually play the game and tell me what's wrong, and ideas on how to make it better. Spriters: If you like to make sprites, I could also use your help. No programming needed, I will insert the sprites. World balancer: Someone to make sure the world is balanced, and basically to double check to make sure everything is working. This person would need to have a strong experience in playing MMORPGs and know how to balance a world (eg, gaining gold vs. buying weapons vs. the entire world overview, making sure the monsters aren't too easy or hard.) Other positions: If you think you can help give a general direction, like by writing storylines or creating a world map, or helping marketing or producing, feel free to contact me. I have faith in just about everyone alive, I know humans are intelligent human beings and any help is appreciated!!! Team structure: Hero- Mapper, spriter. Been with me for three months. Best guy I have. Davion- GUI artist Klaus- Mapper-in-training. Torrent- Music composer. Me, cyberthane- Heh, programmer, producer, designer, story writer, marketer, you name it I do it.
