The Ultimate Smash Bros Fan Game

[Kriven]

For a while I've been having this crazy dream of creating a Super Smash Bros fangame, but one so good that it wouldn't feel like anything less then an official (however handheld) game. I am looking for people willing to assist me in this venture, at this point of time I am looking for artists since programmers won't be needed until a decent amount of the sprite-work has been done. I have NOT decided on a sprite style as of yet, or a roster for that matter, since I would like this to be decided by my team. I am capable of making background tiles and am currently studying the art of background scenery, so I will use these to assist in the game since I don't want to just be like "No, not what I want."

Any artist who participates, depending on which area they will work in, will decide a character or stage to be in the game, even if they cannot make it themselves someone else on the team will (or at least, try.) Character movesets, however, will be discussed by the team as a whole. Aiming for no clones.

There are some characters I will not permit to not be included, and we will have at least three third-party franchises (Yes, one will be Sonic.)

Anybody who wants to join me, please post here with a sample of your work and what area of the game you would like to work in.

OH! Before I forget. Later on I will be looking for people to compose background music based on the music used in games, so anybody interested in that please get ready for a few stages to get sprited.

I appreciate those of you who took the time to read this and appreciate those of you who want to help out even more.

What other jobs are there? Or if there is any?

[Kriven]

Well, you could always design some stages and I make the tiles for it later?


So I have some spriters interested, but they want to see a programmed demo first x.X;
I have been convinced that C++ is the way to go.

Now the spriters have told me that with the said demo we can use simple ripped sprites with no special attacks, they just want to see how well the engine can be replicated.

Volunteers?

[IVIr.G]

I could make simple PAINT stage layouts (like ones for submissions) and show it too you and see if you like it.

[Kriven]

I went and made the characters myself since I couldn't really interest anybody. I have some other things done but this is what you guys get to see:

Oops, did I just confirm a character?

Okay, two questions: Purple Overalls Wario or WarioWare Wario? Which costume is most liked?

Also, I want to know what characters you guys wanna see.

[IVIr.G]

You should probably put WarioWare, his plain costume ugly.

I've already posted in TRPG about this. Glad to know you're going big on this, Kriv. You have my full support, that's what else I can say.

[Shrikeswind]

Wario Ware Wario is the Wario to use, but I'd boycott your game if he could turn into Wario Man.

If you can make the demo, I'll give it a whirl.

[Kriven]

According to several opinions, we've decided to go with classic Wario, purple overalls. This also means he'll have different moves then Brawl, so expect the motorbike to be replaced by his arm ram.

[IVIr.G]

Wario better have a WarioWare costume.
