Overgrowth modders seeked Thread

Seeked by me!

After seeing all the footage about ingame animation and all the features of the Phoenix engine, I am convinced that creating a mod with it is simpler and more gratifying than with other commercial engines. So I'd like to know if there are Overgrowth owners here, who would like to mod the game.

I have an idea for a story that takes place in an alternative past, in London of the year 1602. Here are some thumbnails I painted:

 

PLOT
After a cave in some miners were rescued and reported of strange devices/machinery they found before the accident. Some goods were saved by them and taken to the surface. Among them are a lightbulb and inductors. This causes a large public interest and Archeology is invented prematurely, as people create a digg up and look for the treasures. Soon digging at the site is regulated by the authorities and royal guards are put at the entrance at the cave. Renowned scientists from all over Europe travel to London to inspect the site and research the findings.
However, those findings aren't limited to the original site. It's like the radius is spreading and peasants find electrical devices, e.g. remote controls and Hamilton Beach Mixers on the roads and the fields, during work. The market for unknown artefacts thrives and a new kind of scientist emerges, the Eclectrician, who only analyses the function of the devices and finds out how to put them to work.
Not only are there more things hurled back from the future, they are also getting bigger. Soon Electricity is discovered; so in this universe Electricity is discovered even before the use of steam.  One day, mental institute patient David Grayson finds himself situated in a forest, instead of his cell. When he's discovered by a group of merchants they mistake him for an Eclectrician, since that is the only group of people, who wear white. Since David can explain every device that's shown to him, he soon makes a reputation for himself and actually starts working in the trade...

THE MISSION
Your mission is to find out how to stop the future from collapsing into the past. You get to meet other people, who were sucked up and back into time, you learn that time is not linear and maybe you'll even get to fight Nazis (again)! The mod is not entirely serious about itself and its story. It's more of a Terry Pratched kind of setting with lots of wacky ideas and incredible creations. There will be a lot of dialog and combinatory play with items you find and buy...

- so this is my setup for an OG mod, inspired by adventure games like Grim Fandango and Monkey Island. Hope we can create a group and start doing something. I will do more planning and layout a design document for this. I hope there are not too many features, if so the mod will resemble an interactive narrative, not unlike Dear Esther. (I'd like a more active solution, though).

If you're interested and own (or plan to own) Overgrowth, PM me!

Great idea SinKing.. I hope they let you do this. Have you tried their alphas yet?

SinKing, 
I followed your post on the Wolfire forums to get here, and I think this idea sounds great. Unfortunately, I'm not much of a programmer, but I do write music (and play... I've been adding all the ethnic flutes to the Overgrowth soundtrack) and I was hoping you might be looking for some custom music for this mod. Let me know it sounds interesting to you.
