Woah, guys, you're beginning to aim too high. Our first project should be something we can complete in a few months. The idea here is to pick something that'll allow us to measure our team's skills and capabilities. Remaking a commercial game in 2D is quite the endeavor. Keep in mind that if we fail in mid-development, we're left with a huge waste of time.

[edit]: I guess a Doom in 2D would be feasible. It still sounds like a big investment in terms of time though.

We dont have any other ideas.
What do everyone else think? Should we make the game or not.

@Doom- Even if we dont do it now, i think we should still do it someday.
Oh, and we cant call it Doom 2D, since there already is one. The project will be offically named "Doom flat".

I have a fully planned out adventure game I'd be willing to share my idea with the lead project designer/leader. I do NOT want to make this idea public just yet as I do not want people just stealing my idea :P. If the abandonia team doesn't take on the task I will once again try and realize it on my own. The only thing that stopped me before was my poor art skills. I am also looking at the possibility of novelising this idea as it would work well as both book/game if adapted properly. If the Abandonian team took on my idea I could provide promo graphics as well as lead the design aspects and main discussions revolving around the game mechanics. Also, if taken on and made properly I could get to work on writing the partner novel which could be used for public promotion.

Let me know if the teams interested...

I currently have the basic game play planned out over a period of 6/7 days. This includes both the basic story and HOW the game will play for the user. I have basic room plans and full character sheets(need finalizing).

Sure go ahead.

As for the top down shooter, it's not aiming too high, but how about a top-down Half Life game? :bleh:

[TheChosen]

Okay Magic, youre in.

Now spit it out!

I think it would be better if we could talk without using this slow forum LOL, why don't we all meet tonight at 8PM GMT on my irc channel @ irc.dal.net #abandonia

[Blood-Pigggy]

I don't use irc.

Cause I don't know what it is, or how to use it,

[Danny252]

I think we're just fine here, chickenman.
And seeing that at least 1 member dosen't use IRC...
