I like to create intellectual property in my spare time. I would be very interested in collaborating on a project with someone. I have some ideas for projects, described below, which I can provide more detail on if you're interested. I'm also interested in hearing your ideas. So, if you have a project you want to collaborate on, or you like one of mine, contact me to tell me about it!
Here are some things that I have either talent or a strong interest in, things that I could offer to a project.
This project is an action-based video game which can be run in an internet browser window. I've done almost all the necessary programming already. The next step is to draw the game graphics. Some artistic ability and familiarity with a graphics program would be helpful, but mostly it requires patience. At this stage I would also welcome people with input on game design.
When that's complete, I would have a need for other people, play testers, voice actors, and music composers. But it would be premature to work on these things before it's clear that the project will make it this far.
I've developed software to help create cartograms, and I want to use it to make population cartograms of the states of the USA, and the countries of the world. For this I would need someone to research the necessary statistics and someone to learn to use the software. Altogether I expect the USA map to take 60 person-hours, and the world map about twice that long. Creative input is also welcome.
This project is a puzzle adventure-based video game. The programming requirements for this one are minimal. What I need are writers, artists, other puzzle creators, and play testers. If you have good story ideas that you don't really feel like developing into short stories or novels, maybe they would work as backdrop for this game.
If the project really gets off the ground, I may also need voice actors and music composers. That would take a while, though.
