------========<< THE STORY >>========------
Do any of you remember the game SkyRoads? (if you don't, check it out! It's freeware)

Lately I've been thinking allot about remaking that game.
And since I'm studying ICT, I thought it would be awesome to create a game! (could get me some point too!)

a few days back I started bashing together a demo version to show the concept of the game.

You can download that here:
DarkROADS.zip
DarkROADS.rar

Keep in mind that this was created in a few hours max.

------========<< WHAT I WANT >>========------
I want to make an excellent remake of the game.
One that features a story mode, and custom maps and such.

I'm thinking of making the ship customizable, so that you can jump higher with a lighter ship, or i.e. carry more people/goods with a bulkier heavy ship.

I want to add a multiplayer mode.
(though this is one of the only thing I'm still new to)

And maybe I'll add enemies.


------========<< WHAT I NEED >>========------
What I need is a team!

I'm thinking of these positions:
- Story Writer
To write a most excellent story for the story mode
- Background Artist
To create some beautiful sci-fi art
- 3D Artist
- To create some ships (consisting of parts)
- Optionally to create a low poly player
- Optionally to create various space stations (HQ's)
- Optionally bump/offset maps to go along with everything

- Shader Writer
- For a nice heat effect to add above fire
- Optionally to create a heat effect for the ships thrusters

- A Community
To discuss enhancements, story, concepts and more

The game's a bit light really for a team request, and I don't think you'll have many volunteers until you have more of a game in place, but go ahead, and good luck.

@ BatVink
Thanks!
I've checked it out,
but that's some complicated code!

I will need to look into that next weekend

@IanM
I'm working on a small demo version which actually lets you play with the original SkyRoads game-play (which I intend to extend)
