What will your activity level be if you join? High on weekdays, sometimes on weekends
Awesome!
Are you experienced with the Scratch forums? Not really, I'm experienced in other forums though.
That's good. The Scratch forums aren't hard. You'll pick it up in no time.
Do you know how to snip forum posts? Sure do!

Good!

One thing more. I see you don't have any shared projects so I can see what you can do…would it be possible for you to make us an example of your work?

Alright guys!

Please post your thoughts on this game plan.

As you all know by now, we're making a platformer game, and we already have an engine to run it.

Now, here's the ideas:

1: Make different sections to the game, say, one being in a dessert, another being a snow-scape, and so on.
2: Make the game play be that of a treasure hunter who travels around the world looking for hidden treasure, mines, and so on.
3: Make some different sections that the treasure hunter can find such as a cave/mine, or an abandoned castle, and so on.
4: Make some different costumes for our character…say he can be a hiker in the dessert, and a skier in the snow-scape, and so on.

Let me know what you think!

The platforming engine looks pretty good! I'd be happy using that in one of my own games

Oh thanks! Made it myself by learning from some tutorials and then adding some tweaks for our game. Feel free to use it if you want..

No problems!

Also, remember to use the quote button when replying to someone.

It helps keep things orderly.

Okay! Normally I only use quotes when someone has posted in between the person I'm replying to, but I'll try to remember to use quotes from now on.

Ok! Sounds great!

That's why we need to snip posts, because they get a bit long after awhile.

This post is an example of that. Not because it's too long yet, but I just wanted to show you.

So I went and took a look at our latest version, now that I have the ability to do so…

And I'm wondering if the engine can be tweaked a little so that when the up key is pressed, our little man will keep jumping, versus only jumping once… Anyone?

If you want, I can quickly add that feature into the project so that you can turn it on and off, then we can see the difference.

Alright, I've added the feature in, what do you think?
It's awesome! Now, do you think we could make him jump higher/further?

This is a bit late, but I tried to make the gravity act differently to make the character jump higher a while ago, and it's pretty easy; you just need to change a few “change … by …” blocks to change by some factor more or less. You could also introduce a “gravity” variable if you would like to change gravity during the game, perhaps if you were to be able to go to the moon

Ok great! You're….

Accepted!!!

What kind of art are you best at? Pixel or Vector?

One of the main goals of all my collabs has been to help people learn. That's why I will even take on New Scratchers.
Now, you aren't experienced with the Scratch forums, so I'm going to give you your first assignment.

Learn as much as you can about the forums and how they work. Check in with us often, and post ideas, etc. Learn how to snip forum posts, and all that.

We all help eachother, so if you have questions, it's going to be your fault if they don't get answered, because that means you haven't asked!
