    C# Isometric MMORPG

    Unpaid position.

    I been developing games for about 10 years now. Mostly in Visual Basic though I just recently switched over to C#. I have finished a 2dorpg that you can find here: Key To Heaven - The Land of Marovia

    Now I'm looking to make a isometric mmorpg. I have a small page setup with some general thoughts and some of the graphics Ive made for it here: Key To Heaven - The Land of Marovia
    I'm currently working on a sourcecode and I will share more ideas if you contact me.

    I'm looking for someone who wants to help me out with programming. I'm a very dedicated person and I think this is a lot of fun. But I can't make my 2nd game alone, it's way too time consuming. I will however do a lot of programming and all the graphics. I just need some help so if you are interested in making a mmorpg, and be a part of it. We can discuss this further.

    Email/MSN: [email protected]
    You can also reach me on GTalk and Skype.

    I think an MMORPG is a bit of a stretch for jumping into C#. However a 2D game is very possible in C# via XNA or via Direct3D using C++/CLI. Where are you getting the graphics from? The number one source of unfinished games is a lack of graphical talent and/or resources. Actual game code and underlying engine is not all that difficult for a 2D Iso game.

    I'm going to make all the graphics myself, really looking forward to doing it in isometric view.

    I dont expect my game to get 1000s of players, but I want it to minimum support around 250. And lidgrens library seems sufficient for that.

    I dont make unfinished games, when I start something I will finish it. My last game took 5 years so I dont expect this new one to be finished anytime soon. But with some help it can be done faster.

    ^_^

    Is the game really finished or are you just moving on to a new project?

    Developers rarely set out to make an "unfinished" thing; they just move on.

    Anyway, if you are really capable of doing decent graphic work and a little development as well you'll get more mileage if you seek out an indie group that you can help instead of finding a group to help you. Yes, I know; that would mean abandoning your own pet projects or at least not letting them be the focus of your time. However, it would mean that you'd still be working on a game with a team.

    My game is finished And I made app. 300bucks on it ^^ 300/5years is a awesome salary.

    I'm not looking to join other people. My next game will be a sequal to the game name title of my first game: Key To Heaven 2. I'm only looking for one maybe two people who would be interested in taking some load of the programming. And as a reward they would get to be the owners of a mmorpg, join the community as leaders and share possible income.
