I have played COTW 1 & 2 since about the day they came out. Still love to play them from time to time.
I can see you get this all the time... ... I am extremely good with VB (and others) and I would like to build a "Similar" game, but with some differences. It should still have the same basic concept of graphics, and playability. I would like to turn it into a bit of a MMORPG (online multiplayer) however.
I Have some really great Ideas for the game if I were to do so. I would need some help and deffinatly some play testers as it goes. What I need help with is Graphics (I suck at the 2d computer drawing. Good at 3D but im not wanting to push it that hard... ...yet. who knows maybe if it turns out good, I could kick it to 3D.)
I have started it with some of the icons from the game already, but I do believe they all need to be changed (not just because of copyright worries, but even 2d graphics today are better.) I do want to keep these "graphics" of similar (kinda cartoony but in no way anime) quality. I just believe they need to be a little more detailed.
Any way If any one is intrested in helping me with this Build Please contact me at Siknezz@live.com You could also just leave a reply at this forum. I will check it often. I can give more detail should you decide. I will also set up a ventrilo server for communication (like phone over the computer. You do need a mic though).
And as I said before, I can see you get alot of "Oh, I can do a rebuild" I will try my hardest not to become one of those people and have no Intensions of doing so!!
I believe the ideas I have for the game I want to create will turn out good. Also to anyone that decides they would like to help me with this I am MORE than willing to give credit were credit is do!! Even if this does go so good to do more than just "credit". Now having say that I have no intinsion of selling the game. Free download is the way I like it. I do however have Actual Server and Heavy Networking Equipment, there for should this go online I may ask for donations to keep it online (if liked enough).
Anyway I Talk way to much. Thank you for reading and any comments would be very appritaited. Thanx agian Siknezz
