You're right, Woadraiders, but for now, we'll discuss it here.

We'll need it on here. I only have one flash submission, therefore noi B/A. We could have a basic list of updates when ever some one finished/joins etc. on the Ng page (so bumps really)

OK,
how about this topic here on NH can be our own private place to discuss things, and the one on NG can just be for asking people to join the collab, let them post their own parts etc.

Anyway I have a song suggestion. It's kinda laid back but I think it might match the theme of night.
Feel free to post your own suggestions This isn't final!

Seems good, We split the song into parts. Since your more familair with the song can you do it?

So then everyone who joins takes a part, does a animation fitting into the topic "Night"

Except we don't need to feature NH characters at all. We can just let peeps be creative

That song is 5 minutes long btw, and does no one else want to suggest another song?

Right sorry to bring up this old post again, but re-read it.
We need a collab and I'd love to arrange / do this

So, this is what I have to say about a music video:
I was looking up copyright laws on using copyrighted music. It's extremely confusing, and it would either cost £5 or over £1000, if anyone else wants to try their luck making sense of it, go to http://www.prsf ormusic.com/.

So, with that in mind, what else is there to do? I'd really like to try doing a music video, especially to Mika's new song "We Are Golden":

Click play and listen, don't watch the crappy video they already have


Hmms. We could just do your run-of-the-mill collab: you decide on a theme and everyone makes their own part (or parts) for it, then put them all together
Any thoughts?

Hmmm... I can't animate for shit. Line sticks is the best I can
Can't make realistic walking cycles either :

We could actually make that music collab for free - there are loads of music clip collabs on NG. what we COULD do is contact the last known publisher or "owner" of the copyright. It's non-profit, so it shouldn't give any problem.

Oh and as I can't animate... how about a mini game collab? 3 week deadline, everyone makes a small game, a little time waster. Not the next Motherload, more something like... the next super duper mini game?
Let's do that. It actually is a pretty good idea, not too great graphics are needed and we can get it published quite soon!

Ok.

Actually the game field sounds great, but we do need decent graphics

*BRAINWAVE*!!!

Cave of Wonders
I was just playing this game, and it's a perfect idea of what we could do. Just one big boss battle, a bit like caste crashing the beard. Why? Because it has stuff which coders can contribute with, the artwork wouldn't take lifetimes (like in Cursor Quest ) and it's just fun to play
I reckon it's a good idea

Hmm, yeah.
I do agree that the mini game collab would need decent graphics, just not as good as for a standalone game.

Actually, I was just playing that as well. I think the boss fight collab is a good idea. I've got some cool ideas, but before we continue - AS3 or AS2? D:

I code messy.

Re: NH collab. Quote 11 months ago
Anyway..
Sorry all devs about me messing up the emails. So yeah I'd like to reignite this topic and we have a great idea in out midst:

A short game, which is just one big boss battle. It's simple, straight-forward and it means people who would prefer to do coding, can.
I understand it would probably be mainly down to the coders, I'm not sure though, and there wouldn't be a huge amount to draw either = we could get it done fairly quickly.

What do you think? (See my prev. post for a link to an example of what we can do)
