Um...Can I get in on this action?  I'm getting better with custom tiles. :^^:

Ok, I guess I'm in too, but is this happening?  This thread has been dead for almost a month.  How about we start imposing deadlines, just to keep the thing rolling?  Two weeks should be more than enough for 5 screens.  And if you could please post a teaser pic when you've finished your area, just so we know things have forward momentum. 

And one last thing, where can I get the tileset?  It doesn't seem to be in the public tileset collection.

Well, as far as I am concerned, anyone can join. However, before anyone can continue we'd need to get our hands on the part that the Jack has already been working on!

BTW, I think that, if this should turn into an active project again soon, I'd like to bow out (or take a later place in the queue, anyway), as my life is incredibly busy at the moment and I can't even find the time to work on my main projects, so I have to cull the list a bit. I'd rather focus what energy I may have on Falling Water while this busy phase of my life continues.

Count me in.

And anyone interested in this may also want to take a look at Great Art.

Hopefully it wasn't a breech of etiquette, but I just e-mailed the Jack, so maybe we can get this ball rolling. 

Any thoughts on the 2 week deadline for each entry?  I thought it made since...

It makes perfect sence, and it's a good idea.
Hopefully the Jack will come back soon. But if he doesn't, maybe the next person in line can start?

Can I take part please? (I've only ever released one level but I have countless unfinished ones!)

Igh.

I have to pull out of this one.  suddenly, my time, she is taken over by my comic.  No time to make levels for a while.

Of course you can :D the more, the merrier.

I believe someone needs to take charge over this if it's ever to get going.

I have 2-3 extremely stressful weeks coming up, but if no one else volunteers in that time I'll do it.

Also, I'm pretty sure The Jack isn't coming back.. It's been several weeks now. There's nothing to do but to start without him.

I'm bumping this.

I would like to see something happen with this.  It just sounds like a good collaboration.  This might be obvious, but I'd also suggest someone start a plot in this thing, and each successive entry has to build on it.  :)  However, if we do that, we might want to have suggestions for a starting plot point so the first person doesn't have to come up with it all by themselves.  Just a thought.

So Bulba, your want to get this thing rolling?  I'd gladly take 2nd, or even 1st if I get some plot suggestions.

I do want to get it rolling C)p. I can't do anything until 2 weeks from now, but then my summer vacation starts and I will have lots of time. Therefore it may be better if you take 1st, and I take 2nd.

I don't have any plot suggestions though. Not for now at least.

This seems like a neat idea... I've experimenting with the tileset and made a few screens and a custom snow blizzard animation. If any of you is still interested on this, I could upload what I made and, if you like it, you may continue from there.

I haven't thought of an idea for the plot yet, but it could be about Juni living on a cottage on the tundra and having to go out in the middle of a snow storm to find something.

Of course, if any of you has already started on this, then feel free to ignore me X)

Excellent C)p

I'm thinking about starting a new thread for this when it actually starts, but it's great to have a starting point!

If you want to you could PM me what you've got (or post it here if you want to) and I'll go 2nd and will start a thread with some rules.

This is happening peeps 8)
