Hello,
I am hoping to start a new collab called Spotlight Studios. I am not new to scratch, I just left for a while and came back with a new account. In this collab (if all goes well and people join) I am hoping to make projects such as:

- Level-up games
- Art tutorials
- Short movies
- RPG games

I am looking for creative, trustworthy, artsy, and perhaps a few nerdy (I mean nerdy in a good way) people to join. People who know what they are doing, and are capable of staying committed and doing their job well. If you are interested at all, please post below or comment on my profile the following:

- What kind of job you are interested in (programmer, artist, sound editor, bug inspector/fixer)
Note: Please only choose 2 jobs, 1 as the priority and the other as a back up if the priority job is not available.
- Links to at least two of what you consider to be the best projects you've ever made
- A list of reasons why you would like to join
- What you do and are interested in outside of scratch

Hoping things turn out and go well,
- Spot

I checked out a few of your projects, and I am sorry to say but I found a couple quite confusing as you did not explain anything about the project besides saying it was epic in the notes. You can join temporarily as a programmer, just to see how it goes. If things turn out, you will be moved up to a full member.

I was looking through other collabs and found that you joined a different one on the 20th. Are you sure you can keep up with the work and stay committed while being in both collaborations bunnymustard?

Hey i'd like to be a programmer and as a secondary job, an artist if that's possible.
My 2 favourite finished projects are probably Ping, a pong variant i created a while ago(http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/3312835/) and this because i managed to create a really accurate physics model(http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/2273314) I do have some much better projects that aren't currently finished though. Outside of scratch i'm a student studying Maths, Physics and IT, the rest of my time i spend gaming.

I looked through your projects. You are definitely in as a programmer, but we do need an artist. I suppose you could have two roles

Okay, first project. I had started a game a couple days ago, so far I have no scripts, just the sprite for the ladder and the backgrounds. The game will be called Ladders, and I was thinking it would be a good first project for the collab.

In the game the player will be a small painter man who has a ladder and has to get to the top of the skyscraper by using his ladder to get up from balcony to balcony (collecting coins along the way) before it get's dark. Once the painter man gets to the door at the top, he will have the option of going to the shop or going on to the next level. At the shop the player can spend the coins they received on taller ladders, daylight-savers, and anything else anyone would like to add.

Everyone please post below whether you think this is a good idea to make or not, and any suggestions or questions you might have.

- What kind of job you are interested in (programmer, artist, sound editor, bug inspector/fixer): Programmer. I'd do artist, but that's only for cartoons and such, as my good artwork never shows up well in Scratch LOL.
- Links to at least two of what you consider to be the best projects you've ever made: Soundwave Defense and Doctah Knockout's Style
- A list of reasons why you would like to join: Seems like an interesting collab.
- What you do and are interested in outside of scratch: Mostly, I roam around the Nemesis causing mayhem, so I have been demoted from Leader of Inventing (or whatever) to Leader of Human Recruitment (which isn't even a JOB. Megatron says it's temporary and only a punishment, so I guess I'll be back at it soon enough. This was for blasting the Angry Birds theme over the Nemesis, but that's another story. ). All merriment aside, that's classified intel, but you may know that I like Transformers, Portal, Homestar Runner and math (specifically algebra).

@Spotlight- ‘your’ is possessive. If something belongs to someone you say your. You're means you are. So you are in, or you're in, is proper grammar. You're was originally just slang but got accepted into English because we can.

Thank you!

And, yes, it's ‘you’re', a conjunction of ‘you’ and ‘are’ (I nearly called it a conjungation! XD).

Okay, well because no one replied, I will assume that what I said before will be okay for our first project.

1. Harley:
You can make the main menu. I was kinda thinking of a wooden look, or maybe have it be a wall and windows with shutters be the buttons. Anyway, that part's all up to you. The buttons needed on it will be the start game button and the shop button.
Once you have made the main menu just share the project and bunny will use it for his job.

2. Bunny:
Based on how the main menu looks, you can make the shop. In it there will need to be buttons for buying the daylight-savers and taller ladders. Remix harley's project and use it to make the menu with.

3. Hyper:
You can program the shop, I'll give you more instructions when your working on it. (hyper and I are siblings, for those who don't know)

4. StarscreamClone:
When hyper is done you can check it over for any bugs, then we will move on to programming the levels.

If we can get this all done by Friday or Saturday that will be wonderful. And don't worry, I'll be doing stuff too. I am working on making the sprite for the player and the sprites for the ladder as well. If anyone is too busy this week to do it, or doesn't have it done soon enough, I or anyone else who wants to can take their job this week. When you read this, please reply whether you can do your job or not, and if you can about how long it will take. If there are any problems, suggestions, or questions, please tell!
