Around January of 2012, I had the wonderful idea to branch off and start a computer game on my own, completely from scratch. I wanted a real-time strategy game like Age of Empires to be combined with the complex depth of a city building game like Sim City or Caesar. Shortly thereafter, I realized I needed a lot of help to program, design, create art and sound, and animate my game, in order for anything real to happen.
As time went on, my idea became more and more solid, and now that I have a good stepping stone, I think its time to move forward. Kyn Creations is my start up company that I will use primarily for the creation of my first computer game. It's very likely I will also branch off, maybe produce a smaller game, as well as other computer-related commodities, such as computer cases and parts, as well as the related merchandising.
So far, I have a few friends who are very talented artists to help me, but I have yet to find talented programmers who can direct the game towards a specific programming SDK, much less start on the content.
I can't make a modern computer game on my own. Sure, 30 years ago it was possible, but in order to create something that will actually make a blip on the radar, I need as much help as I can get.
Anyone willing to contribute should let me know. I need money, workspace, computers, software, programming, art, concept designs, story boards, sound effects, music, etc.
I can pay a limited wage, but considering this is an opportunity cost - with big rewards for big contributions - it will feel a lot more like a volunteering effort than a job. This is a project of passion, with a decently high success rate (in terms of RTS games), so don't shrug this off as just another crazy gamer with a dull idea. This is a life goal, and I'm determined to complete it on a budget and a schedule.
