Hi.

So I have this game that I'm currently developing myself, here:
Dl.dropboxusercontent.com
(Because unity webplayer doesn't work anymore or something..)

That game's a mess. Here's why: I started off with an MMORPG idea(of course), and then decided I should make an MORPG related to permaculture. Basically it's a Third/First person shooter game, fantasy genre(so, swords and magic), and there's a tree in the middle that grows according to the online player's joint effort.

That was too hard for me. I finished a prototype for that, with a digital gallery function that can host other people's artwork, but just because it's online means I have to do a lot of gameplay-unrelated things like user database, authenticate packets sent by players and what not. "Online" is a whole new field, so I lowered the idea again.

I like every part of my big idea, and I don't mind start building the small version of it. A friend told me "people try to make the coolest game(or any other artwork). They make it 3d, super sick graphics, super complicated gameplay and story and whatever. They don't remember they're just trying to give a message.

So at that point, I've decided this and that, and at this moment I'm gonna make a story-driven single player RPG. The main character has 2 imaginary friend, one of them is a cat called Kat, on which you play as in Dream state(the other is Doc the dog, but you don't get to play him though).

I think if I can finish the first Dream episode, which is a "Catch Mouse, as Kat" stage level, I can release the game episodically.

The advantage of helping complete this simple requirement to finish the first episode, is that it's nearly done as an RPG. It has a NPC dialogue system, battle system, some monster AI, and so on.
But the disadvantage, you have to go over probably all of my codes(which are gonna be messy, since I'm a beginner programmer at best. I only learn what I need to provide the necessary gameplay). That and you have to teach me some coding.

I want to take care of the story, and the 3d animations. You take care of the codes. So your work is probably 80% refactoring, 20% implement the rest of the gameplay mechanics. With this, we can make a few episodes. Some buildings are also in the process.

I'll leave the game here. Maybe anyone's interested, there's more about the game that needs to be explained too.

Cheers
