New RPG, "Furbits," in the works! Looking for builders and scripters!

Hi there! Currently being created is a new game unlike anything SL has ever seen. So far, we're keeping things pretty hush-hush, but let me give you a basic idea of what this game will be.

Furbits is a pet-based RPG that will take place right here in Second Life. Your Furbit will fight in battles and minigames, collecting new moves and getting stronger by completing quests. Anyone will be welcome to play!

We're expecting this project to bring new gaming elements into SL, and create a community of players and item traders.

It's gonna rock!

But!

We need help!

To bring this game out in a timely manner, we need help with scripting and building. And that's where YOU come in! We're looking for skilled and experienced scripters and builders to help bring this game to life!

Would you like to be a part of this project? Keep in mind, that this is a PURELY VOLUNTEER POSITION. We will not pay you for your work before the project opens. However, a salary once the game is open is not unlikely But please keep that in mind before letting me know you're interested.

If you still want to be a part of this project, please IM me in world and I'll send you a volunteer application.

Thank you so much in your interest, and have a great day! Watch this space for new info about the game as it becomes available! <3

Oh, so you don't have to worry about IMing me... just plop this on a notecard, fill it out, and send it to me! (Teeka Fox)

Hi there! Thank you so much for your interest in bringing Furbits to life! Because of the desire to keep the project as hush-hush as we can for now, and because we can't accept every applicant that walks off the street, filling out this application will help us get an idea of who you are and why you're interested in helping. Thank you for your cooperation!

Please fill out this application and write your name on the name of this note.

1) Your name:

2) Your Second Life age:

3) Do you consider yourself a builder, a scripter, or are you equally skilled at both?

4) Have you worked on any large-scale projects in the past? Can you describe one or two in detail, including what you brought to the table, skill-wise? If you haven't worked on any large projects, then name some small ones and describe those.

5) Do you think you have a good sense of humor? (Yes, this IS important!)

6) Do you have a vendor with which you sell your own creations? Do you have a store? Can you please provide a location, so we can look?

7) Have you used a Wiki before?

Please tell us why you're interested in working on a project like this.

9) Would you be willing to agree to not disclose anything about the project to any friends or family within Second Life or otherwise?

10) When are you available to work on the project? Please be as specific as you can, including days and times you know you are on and available to work on this. We understand you need time to relax, and don't want to take your every waking minute... but the more time you can spend working on the project, the faster it will be completed.

Thank you so much for filling out this application! We'll let you know in a day or two if we'll need your help.

Have a great day!

Pokémon! Gotta catch 'em a... ll.. hm.

Hehee! Yes, all the popular pet games are obviously an inspiration... however, a lot of new and different elements have been added to not make it feel like the same old pet game (we hope!)

Teeka Ive never been in a huge project before, just building for myself and friends. I'd like to take some part in it though! Does this disqualify me?

Anyone that wants to help, please just fill out the form here, plop it on a notecard and send it to me, and we'll go from there!

And as for the 3d Neopets thing...

No. It's nothing like Neopets. And I'll thank you to keep criticism to yourself until you actually see the finished game, please

ive sent you a notecard

Yay I want an agumon, or v-mon or some other cute mon =D

I would so love to help but for 2 problems:
1) I can't model worth a damn (almost)
2) I can't stand scripting huge programs.

Still, I have ideas~!

Sounds cool, just a suggetion tho. Throw in a few really badass lookin pets. If possible. I know myself and a few others would be interested if our options werent all pokemon lookin' things.

Oh, and HUD based commands for the pet would be good.

Edit#2-Maybe some robot pets.


Anyway, goodluck!!!!!!
