Scratch Zoo - A GAME COLLAB

What is Scratch Zoo about?
Scratch Zoo is a scrolling interactive world made out of tiles. Each tile can house an animal, and animals can be bought.
More tiles can be bought.
Money is earned by visitors buying tickets to the zoo. Money can also be earned through balloon stands, etc.
A scratcher's zoo is saved by a code, so they can save their zoo and come back.

Do you want to join?
This is a long term project, so you do not have to be active every day, but if you can be active at least three times a week that would be nice. I understand you all have your own lives, as do I.

I am looking for coders, designers, and music producers. Please fill in the following application to join!

Name: I'm influenzi, as stated. Call me Emil tho if you want my irl name
Job: Design leader
Yes
Your projects sounds interesting and it would be great to see it complete.

Name: A_Geeky_Jawa
Job (coder, designer, music producer, researcher): Researcher (if possible to have more than one job then also Coder)
Would you like to be a co-leader of a job? (yes/no): Yes
Why do you want to join?: I'm new and just want to do a Collab (never done it before). Also because I want to start small and fresh, since most of the other collabs have a lot of pages of progress already so I wouldn't be able to keep up with them.

Hey there!
You're accepted as Researcher #1. I'm not going to put you as a coder yet, as you are relatively new. Maybe you can help out a little with it at times.
Please follow this discussion!
Thanks!

Name: Kauvier
Job (coder, designer, music producer, researcher): Designer, secondary coder
Would you like to be a co-leader of a job? (yes/no): No
Why do you want to join? I'd love to work with other scratchers in a collab- as I've never really gotten to do anything like that before. It also seems like an interesting concept

Accepted! You are a designer and a part-time coder.

Job (brainstormer, project overseer - figuring algorithms/stuff, programmer - yay!)
Do I want to be a co-leader? Well, I consider us all co-leaders, not for a specific job, but for the whole project!
Why do you want to join? It's my first one… I think it is a great idea to collaborate. My one question? How do we do it? Can we edit a common project together… how do we program together?

In terms of experience, I came back to Scratch a few weeks ago after working on C++/Java. In these few weeks, I've made:
- Official Scratch Map –> where all users collaborate to make a good drawing on a canvas, when each user can individually only modify a small part of the canvas. https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/131313189/

- Official Physics Engine –> I created this so everyone can make their own platformer-style gravity games with ease! https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/132201686/

- I am WORKING on a project for music. Obviously, it is not finished, but work-in-progress. https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/131724805/

Thanks!

Would you like to be a co-leader of a job? (yes/no):Yes for music
Why do you want to join? Because I am pretty good for music producer, and it will be fun to work in a team

When will I know if I made the cut or not

Hey there! Could you please send me an example of some music you've made?
Thanks!

Is there a studio I should join?

Not yet, though I will make one soon.

Great. Just wondering, in terms of music, do you want the music producer to find music, or actually make music. If they were to make it, what genre? Thanks!

Make music, any genre. Anything that might go with the theme. They will also have to produce any sound effects.
