Yeah dude; of course I'm helping with this.
But if we're gonna go properly down the game design route; we need an engine to build - in 2 ways:
1) If the game can be played IRL - even if it's mechanically but not graphically - we really should make decks that can be printed out. So everyone can try it and comment on how they feel the mechanics work. Everyone can be involved with the testing process; so we'd generate a lot of interest.
2) A computer-based engine. There are programs that exist already that can make online CCGs - but I dunno if they're capable of making full-on games. That'd require an engine build from scratch (Or gamemaker or MMF2 or whatever). We have a few programmers here already - but IIRC they're all bogged down in other projects..
My time online is a bit sporadic and I never seem to be online as the same time as you, Mr. Rad Dad; so if you need me to give my 2 cents on anything/explain shit/do write ups - just post here or shoot me a PM and I'll post ASAP.
