Ninjabba Posted February 9, 2012 Author Share Posted February 9, 2012 Currently I'm working on creating some chiptunes.. I'm not a musical genius, so this is going rather slow. I asked a good friend of mine, who happens to be more of a musician, to help me out and he said he'll definitely will. However, working in ProTracker as far as I see can be quite a drag and I hope he doesn't get tired of it too fast. After the tunes are ready, there'll be a demo released for some good beta-testing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moya Jackie Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 I know a few Protracker musicians, would it be any help if I asked around if any of them would like to collaborate with you on this? I also know a great pixel artist who specialises 12bit 16 colour low-resolution images if you'd like to outsource the graphics or form a team to get the game finished. I understand if you'd rather tackle the whole lot on your own though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the point is not only the protracker mod, but the importing into chipper... as the chipper tracker part sux terrible. but yes, help on graphix and tracks is always welcome.

Maybe I'm a bit too easy with the chiptune part.. but I found that importing a MOD to chipper and create the instruments quite enjoyable in the end and the results are good as well. Better than I expected to achieve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also considering another name still, just to make sure there's no stupid copyright infringement. I've been reading a bit too much about small developers getting attacked the last year.

Paranoia Dragon Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I highly recommend if possible, that you copyright whatever name you end up with. We copyright all our game names, though I have no clue how much that costs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
108 Stars Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Who exactly is the "we" you are referring to? You mentioned loving the PCE, but not what you have done so far. About copyrights... I remember that our game cost us about 500 USD before release, and probably additional fees after release. A lot of cash for a Lynx game that will probably sell around 150 copies or so. About names, I liked he suggestion of Dragon's Aga. But there is more: Dragon Sage The Old Scrolls Fire Breath Diabolus Tales of Dragons Draco Trigger Legend of Dragon Drac the Lad Shining Dragon Dragon Emblem Dragon Profile Dragon's Souls Dragaea Grandracia Dragon Questing Shin Draconi Tensei I think all of those would be perfectly safe to use. Just be careful not to call it Dragon Edge. There is that guy who founded a games company called Edge, never released a hit, but he sues everyone who uses the word "edge" in a game title. He always loses the trials though, so maybe you SHOULD actually call it Dragon Edge so he sues you, loses, and has to pay you money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariLynx Lover Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Here's my list of names... Dragon Spiral Saga of the Spiral SpiraSaga Draco Saga Dracon Legend of the Dragon Shining Dracon Draco Blitz Scrolls of the Fire Quest for the Dragon's Secret Tales of Flares Search for the Legendary Dragons Sha Draconis Fistan Gra Draco Scro Qust U like? All are perfectly usable too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paranoia Dragon Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) Who exactly is the "we" you are referring to? You mentioned loving the PCE, but not what you have done so far. Off topic, but we are Frozen Utopia. I mainly do music & voice acting. We're releasing Mysterious Song, a turn based RPG(we're hoping to have the game in all it's packaged glory at Midwest Gaming Classic) for the PCE, along with many other games in the pipline, but Jungle Bros. should be our 2nd release(platformer) hopefully by the end of the year, but I still have alot of songs to work on for that one. Also, our programmer has a sister group called Eponasoft, & they too are working on PCE games, with Monolith(action RPG) being the first release sometime this year. You can find us here frozenutopia.com & eponasoft.com Anyways, names....: Panzer Dragon Tatsu Densetsu Drake Saga Dragon's Breath Drake's Fantasy Knights of the Wyvern Draconian Shadow's Paranoia Dragon Saga Edited February 13, 2012 by Paranoia Dragon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninjabba Posted February 13, 2012 Author Share Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) Thanks for the suggestions, had a laugh here and there I already have another name for it.. will keep this one as the project name for convenience until the time is ripe Edited February 13, 2012 by Ninjabba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moya Jackie Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Hi Ninjabba, I was wondering if you have visited the forums at Pixel Joint or Pixelation? They are the best forums to post your pixel art on so you can get critique and advice, or you could simply browse the galleries and threads learning more about pixel art and how best to work with a limited palette. With the help of the fantastic artists on those forums you could vastly improve the graphics and palettes you've already got in your game, and you'll learn some techniques and tricks which will be very handy if you continue to design your own game graphics for future projects.
