Seriously, people are more likely to join up on these sorts of things if you have something to show off

If you don't have graphics, gameplay or story (or even a setting) what in the world do you have so far that would encourage anyone to join up on your project?



I'm not being mean, but this sort of thing happens all the time, on many forums, in many different game-makers - you have a guy that'll join and say "I can do graphics" that does a cat charset and disappears off the face of the Internet, and a guy that 'can code pretty well' that quits after you ask him to do a massively complicated CBS or something. If you're lucky you'll get twenty guys that 'can come up with ideas' and not actually do any work on the project, because it's the only part that's actually any fun to do when you're working on "someone else's" game and not getting paid

And then the whole thing tanks because you are left with a game consisting entirely of a well-drawn cat



If you have the jobs defined, at the very least when someone wants to join they know what they're in for...

i've got a story, but im keeping it to people that i know and trust(basicly people that i can say to "hey! wanna come over and work on the game we're making?" and they'd not too far away. sorry. you'd be best finding people that you know already.. people over the internet can provide help and advice, but i wouldn't want to have just anybody to work on this game with me if i were you. but anyway, good luck, hope you find some people
