Chaos Project

(http://yfrog.com/elichiwerbunglogop)

Hello and welcome.

Do you have a Project and don't know how to continue, or do you just need some help?
Have you been searching for a production Team but can't find one?
We can help.
This is a topic from Ichi-Engine!

What is Ichi Engine?
It is a gathering of People whom are working on games together.
You show us your Project, and we try to improve it with things like:
Story, technique, graphics, artwork, music and many more things.
This is the English production team of Ichi, we already have a German Team with 20 people.

If I want to join Ichi is it possible just to help other games with and without having my own game?
Yes of course.
If you have to wait for any graphics, feel free to help others. It is give and take.
It is like a big team which works together to develop some games..

What happens if I don't have my own project?
It doesn't matter. Too many projects are not so good. If you are good enough, you can help with other projects.

Listen, I've had RM for 2 weeks, can I still join?
No, we are searching for more experienced people. We need enough energy for the projects. We don't want to have to answer every question from rookies or let beginners join.

How do I communicate? How can I join?
Its pretty easy. First you need to contact me through a PM or just tell me in this topic that you want to join.
I'm will give you my ICQ, MSN or Skype account so you can add me, or I'll add you.
I will see if you are good enough for Ichi and if you are, I will send you the link on the forum.

Greetz Circle and the production Team Ichi ;)

This isn't project or tester recruitment. This is just advertising.

Yeah, I'm not sure if this is really the right place for something like this. One the other side, it's not really plain advertising (that requires 30 posts) of a website or something so it doesn't belong in the advertising section either. I'll move it to the RM main section.

Despite that it was posted in the wrong section I really like the idea. I think this is something I could find myself doing.

Sry, didnt know actually where is the right place for this.

But well it is not an advertisment because like you read we search people for projects and search projects
to make them better. ( We search spriters, musician and many more ppl ;) )

I think a good example is Square Enix. We are like that ( I hope you know what I mean)
We are a big group ( 20 or 30 ppl but not more) which are working together and show the world
some great projects ;)

I was in the german part of this but left because of certain.. differences and annoyances, but if you'd join the english section I would, too, lol.

From examples of your work above I think you guys need some better aesthetics if you want to really stand out.

@Subsonic:
Would you elaborate? If I were to even consider I'd like to know what some of the other members thought about the whole idea.

Once I get EWIII out, I might join. It sounds like quite a helpful project.

You mean on the idea itself or on why I quitted?

why you quit.

That really wasn't neccessary, Branden...

why you quit.

Well, it was less a problem of the general system but more with some people in the german part of this, especially one person which was really contraproductive (or even destructive) and breaking rules without ever getting any consequences. I objected and people got unfriendly, so I left. But this is a problem with the german part, so I hope the english part will get better people. xD The general idea is good and CircleDrain is alright.

Very interesting ...
I mean personally I don't feel like I have enough time or commitment to RMXP to make an entire game from the ground up. (Well in the Woods) so that's why I'm making the Mortal Kombat game this time around. It will be short and sweet, but hopefully explosive and entertaining.

Here with this idea I could simply put my majority ruling RMXP talent (Spriting) to work and still see games get completed.

Off Topic:

UPDATE:

2 More Members:

Genji and Shiruba_Sora

We are still searching.

Why isn't the english team more active?
Are those really the only two projects you are assisting with?

So like, clashing graphics in games... not very professional. :/

I thought the same thing too ...

I have to say, that the Screens of the english Projects are not final.
You have to know, as example, Waking Dead. He wanted to join told me that he can make some music and has an own project.
He wants to join Ichi. To tell other ppl we have already a Project I need to put a screen. So you see it is not very
professional. In Ichi we are going to change it, but first we need the ppl for it :P
( Atm Im changing little things for the project, like facesets.)

We have now 2 more Projects, going to update it soon :P

Please do ... I need more information and more examples before I can even think about joining seriously.

okay,

I will do it now :P

And a new Member :
Acolyte

The 2 new projects:

Tiimu Footoresu 2
(http://s1.directupload.net/images/100915/aqb684lt.png)

Well thats why I told you to add me on MSN :P
But you seems to be offline all day ^^

And If you look on the german part, you see that Ichi aren`t amateurs. Yeah the english part isnt so great atm, but well, the english Team is pretty new^. First we need to get some ppl together ;)

and

The Mortal Realm

(http://s7.directupload.net/images/100915/8cba7md4.png)

Now that is what I'm talking about!!

lol! fantasia rips! man I like those games

Like I said, we are going to change it.
I dont like ripps or something like that.
I try to do everything by my self :p

I think If you look at the german screens, you see the result.

We are working on everything, but with more ppl It is a way faster :P

->I'm being tempted to join & have Wipe (my project) revamped, with all those cool-looking customs, but I was originally planning to release it independently...

Although... It's veeeeeeerrry tempting, but I'm still having doubts... About 30:70, not favoring you... :P

I also don't want to disappoint my team members, who put much effort in it... :(

@Shadowpierce:
It's my personal opinion that if you started solo, finish solo. The workload is great when you're by yourself, but the reward is also much sweeter. The main problem with groups is not only clashing theories, but clashing resources. To maintain one solid flow for a game (and your own more importantly) it's best to remain solo.

LOL! Hey, I know! Let's all steal the resources from Quintessence: The Blighted Venom for our projects now! :D



You guys fail HARD.

All you did is change the hue of the trees. LOL!

Wait, what? Lol.
What is going on here? Haha.

QuoteLOL! Hey, I know! Let's all steal the resources from Quintessence: The Blighted Venom for our projects now! :D

The tileset is the same at Quintessence, at least an edit of it .

They said that they improve people projects, so I assume that they took this map and improve it (mapping skill is what they are showing). I didn´t understand (in Circlesdrain first post) that they made all resources, scripts, etc...

Anyway I don´t see clearly what Ichi projects do, so a best explanation from Cicles will be nice.

Lol, yea...I'd like to know myself.

I think you guys dont get it >.<

We get a project, I present the project, then we are going to start to improve everything o.O
That maps are not the improved maps....

Here are 2 maps made by Ichi:

http://s7.directupload.net/images/100702/a8h6y2rf.png

http://s5.directupload.net/images/100831/bslsnzve.png ( I know the shadow is a bit thick, we are change it atm :P )

I hope you guys understand it now :P

(http://That maps are not the improved maps....)
If is not a improved Ichi map, why did you post it then?

Why don't you post 2 maps, the original one and then the Ichi modified version, so we can see thats improvements.

You see the 2 maps above I think that should be enough, this 2 maps are made by 4 Ichi members.

I think you guys dont know, that the english team is pretty new o.O

No, I agree with Dweller.
I would like to see the originals as well, so I can see first hand how much "improvement" the maps go through.

You can't say you improve things by showing only finished product. Improvement means better than before. We need to see what before looked like.

oh jesus...

Well...it's not bad, but I don't see miraculous improvement. BUT! I do like that you enhanced the tilesets themselves to accommodate. You did a good job with that one for sure.
