So, I have permission from Red Fox to basically try to do this again.
Chain Game Info:
1) Make sure to send me the game after you've finished your chapter and then I will send it to the next person.
2) There will be a max of 2 weeks for a chapter to be done. I will only give more if asked. If it gets to 3 weeks, I will use anyone signed up for an alternate. This is to keep it going.
3) Anyone who was signed up for the original Chain Game 2 has been notified. Their spots will be filled unless they reply by Monday. It is okay to send as soon as the server is back up on Tues/Weds if it is not up Monday.
Chapters:
Prologue: AFL - Complete
Chapter 1: Red Fox
Chapter 2: dudewheresmymount
Chapter 3: Emerates(?)
Chapter 4: X_marks_the ed
Chapter 5: DragonBlaze
Chapter 6: coasterkrazy
Chapter 7: Prpl_Mage
Chapter 8: Flamehawk27
Chapter 9: Moosetroop11
Chapter 10: SC3K
Alternates:
-your name here-
Spots with a ----- have not replied, and will open up after the server's back up. If you wish to be put on the waiting list post here. First come first serve basis. I've given up my actual chapter since I'm doing the prologue, so... Whoever wants it.
Also, Red Fox, if you still want to do a chapter, you get priority no matter what. ;)
Forum is back up and I have received no new pms. Spots are open to everyone now. If anyone would like to trade chapters with someone else, that is fine. I just went with the chapters everyone had originally, and I put the people on the waiting list in order of posting.
-
Excellent. So, what's the theme of this one exactly?
-
I'm thinking it'll be close to what 1's was, and brings in a character I loved from it for the villain, not to mention scared me half to death o.o But really, it all depends on where Chps 1-3 take it, as my beginning will only do so much.
-
Yes, I would love to do a chapter. I'll take 3 since that was my spot on the closed one :P . I should probably gotten settle in in my new appartment and school by then.
Also thanks for starting it AFL and you'll do a great job.
-
Okay. Added. =D
-
Sign me up dude. I've put this off because I thought my own game needed more attention but I can't resist XD

Guess I'm in the wait list, then.
-
Guess I'm in the wait list, then.
My oppinion and thought is the same as Ed's at the moment.
-
Okay. Started it. It includes one other character from the last chain game, apparently of which my storyline is going to be based around. o.o

New Post: The forum is back up now... So anyone who wants a chapter post now before they're all gone.
-
I got in? Sweet. Well, you got my msn when my turn comes.
Can't wait though.
-
Good luck all can't wait to see the results :D
-
This is going to kick ***.
-
Just so I can get everything straight before we start, since I wasn't in the first one:
-We can do whatever we want so long as it forwards the plot or story.
-We are using RTP for the majority
-We are not allowed to edit other people's work, except to fix a bug located within their work.
-?????
-Profit!
-
Pretty much. Chapter 10 is still open if anyone wants it.
-
Lucas_irineu would like to work on Chapter 10. He'd post himself, but that would cost him his hour.
We hope that he will be un-grounded by the time his turn approaches.
-
Woo. Should be fun. I can see this making me the really anti-social kid in my dorm for a period of time. :P
-

There's no way that going on msn to tell you to post used up less of his hour than posting personally would have. Explain yourself. >.>
-
Slow internet connection? It took me about 10 minutes to finally get firefox up and running today. (I loathe this computer)
So, all openings are now CLOSED. Alternates can sign up as they wish if someone does not have their chapter done in the alloted time.
-
Are we using RTP battlers? *hopes not*
-
Unless someone at the end wants to take the time to do all the battlers. Then no. But right now? yes.
-
I think spritesized battlers wouldn't be too high a goal. Most people on these forums can make decent ones, and if not im always up to help. I resent RTP battlers.
-
Well I don't think everyone has the skills to make bcharas. It would also be hard to get them in the same style, it would also take up more time from their two weeks. So in my opinion it's easier to use the rtp.
-
Another option is that someone(I guess me) just revamps the battlechars when that person's turn comes.
Or we could do that when all the chapters are done. Just go back, make some battlechars, if it doesn't work; stick to the rtp and release it.
Just a thought though.
-
If people are up to it, I'm not stopping anyone.
I'm working a bit slow right now due to the football season/marching band season, but Its started and such. I won't have it ready to send this upcoming week, but after I should.
-

We don't chat through MSN, we use Hamachi, which emulates a network, so we can play Diablo II. I'm guessing the 'hour' starts the moment he uses the actual internet. I guess he'd rather use his hour playing with Prpl_mage and I than having it drain away before Prpl even gets on.
-
I could do some Bchars, but there's several spriters/editors on this team, so I'm definitely not going to be taking the brunt of the blow.
Anyway... HURRY UP AND FINISH THE PROLOGUE BEFORE SCHOOL BEGINS TO PUNCH ME IN THE SOUL AGAIN, AND/OR I BEGIN TO PLAY SPORE
-
I'm never been good at B-charas. I'm also afraid I will lack the time for it when I start school.
-
In that case, if we want to avoid the RTP battlers in the release, we make the battlechars when last pieces are put together and buggs are fixed and the kind. Makes most sense and people won't have to spend time during their chapter-making to do the battlechars.
-
Okay Bluhman, I'm working as fast as I can due to school already started for me.
-
I suppose I will stand in yet again. Better safe than sorry. ;D
-
Added.
Almost done with the prologue. Band season's been hell so far with our practice schedule.

Understandable.
I don't know if I'll be able to create my chapter, what with the whole 98 downgrade. Come my turn, I'll try, but if I can't (I'll let you know if I can't.), SC3K can take my spot.
-
As long as no one adds any mp3's. You should be fine. That was the only problem I ever had with it.
(Damn, I was hoping no one would notice this thread until I had it finished... >.>)
BTW, if you played the second bit of the first chain game after the fire, you should know who the main character is. ;D
-
Neil? Karla? The one who steals all the doors?
-
You'll see. And no. I was going to go with Karlia originally, but I went with someone else who doesn't actually physically appear in it. Still a girl though.
-
Hows it going?
I'm seriously hyped up about this.
-
I haven't been on the computer all week. v.v
I'm getting rid of the 3 week rule.. because apparently I can't follow that one myself. >.<
-
:/ Lol well it's a good rule, I say bring it back when your done with the prologue :P
-
[TOPIC KICK]
I just downloaded the first one last week, and it's pretty sweet...
Wish I had seen this thread sooner, I would have offered my services. Still, can't wait to play the next one. Or finish the first. :P
-
So, I haven't even been on a computer with RPG Maker on it for about two weeks so... I'll get to uploading it ASAP.

3 days later....
Haven't posted in a while. Too busy playing SA2B, but I'm sure I'll be back before it's my turn.
-
Sorry, the computer at my house has some kinda of spyware/virus on it, so I can't use it, so I have to wait until I get to my grandparents to upload it and work on it.
(I keep everything on a flash drive)
-
Ok so after a few
days months I have finally sent the very small bit I had done with the chain game. >.<
This is the most free time I'll have so, good luck all chain game makers!
-
RECIEVED. SHALL BEGIN WORK.
Edit: Errrrrr... Not as much freetime as anticipated, sorry to say. I think I will have to decline the position.
Yeah, this isn't lookin' good.
-
How's it going bluh?
-
Go ahead and take me off of the list.
-
>.<
I know what everyone means by no time.
Just please get your chapters done asap.
Christmas vacation coming up, so hopefully people will have more time?
-
I hope you can all get it done i was really looking forward to this the first one was amazing :D
-
I'm still in. Hopefully.
-
Hai guys I want this dun plz k thx.
-
So uh since bluh is out and all, maybe someone should take his place?
I'm willing to change my position and take it if no one volunteers.
-
>.< Yes. Please would someone volunteer? This is making me depressed. v.v
-
I'm still willing to work on it, if it helps. :/
-
I can take chapter 1 instead of 3. So we can get this moving and it will gives us some time to find a replace for Bluh.
-
Okay. Lemme find the link...
and sending.
-
Got it and going to start on it right away.
In the mean while any volunteers for the three (I think) open spots? You will be doing something for Charas and it will only be 1 - 2 week out of your life.
-
I may take one of those spots as a very last resort, if no-one else steps up. I think it would probably be better if someone more experienced did, because quite frankly I'm still a bit of a noob at RPG Maker. But, if nobody does, I'll take a chapter or so.
-
Experience doesn't matter. It's mostly for fun and making something with the rest of the community.
-
Anyone can do it. We don't discriminate against anyone.
except felix
-
Well, I just don't want to bring you all to shame with something terrible is all. Although, I did some pretty amazing stuff with the crappy game contest thing, so we'll see.
-
Is there going to be a Chain Game 3? If so, i want in.
-
There is free space in this one...
And hard to say if it's going to be a third... Because frankly the interest doesn't seem to be so high and it's a struggle finding people to join.
-
Theres space in this one? Then I'll help. Just send me whatever I need.
-
Great, welcome aboard.
When your turn comes up you will be send the game. Then you make your chapter and send it back to AFL who will then pass it along to the next person.
I have finished all the maps and most of the custom graphics in my chapter. I just need to make all the cut scenes and put out the npc and some other minor stuffs. I expect to be done next week if I'm not flooded with school work.
-
Alright, sounds like fun. Anything I SHOULDN"T do to the story? Like, are there any guidelines or anything, or just have fun, do whatever?
Hehe....this could be fun....
-
Well I think your pretty much allowed to do whatever you want. But it would probably be more appreciated if you tried to build on the story and not turn it around completely. Like making the hero into an alien and change the plot to getting him back home to his planet.
-
My alternate status still stands, if I'm needed.
-
Ok. Thanks for putting in for this guys. >.<
-

Yeah i didn't intend to, I think E.T. kinda covered that base. No, i'll stick to the storyline and add some twists, but nothing out of this world.
-
I won't argue with you there.
Anyway I though I would share a screenshot...
(http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y237/DeepShitL/ChainScreen.png)
... And also say that I got 2 cutscenes left to code and make some monsters and then I should be done.
( Might take a couple of days though :/ )
-
Octopus aliens? Maybe it's more like Galaxy Quest than E.T.....
What non-RTP chipsets will I need? Or do I get to choose?
-
I wouldn't use RTP chipsets if I were you, hardly anybody likes them and the almost never look good.
You know I could help. I have some time on my hands this week.
-
I have non RTP tilesets, just wondering if there was any preference on that. Yeah, i'll go all out on the maps.
-
No you don't have to use RTP. Your free to use whatever chipset you want
And fish sorry but I think the all the spots are taken again. (And it would probably take more the a couple of weeks before it comes to you)
Uhm Emerates are you in? Kinda need a defiant answer.

Aw man. Oh well, if anyone dropps out just PM me, I love these things and have always wanted to do one. Heck after playing first one I tried to find some pepole to help me make one of my own. it would have been "Fish's Chain game". *Sighs* And if we do a third i'll be first in line.
-
I'll do Fish's Chain Game with you whenever you want to start one.
-
Glad to see this is back up and running :)

:P Do it!
-
I'm still game for 2nd place by the way.
-
That is very nice to know DWMM. I don't think I can survive this if more people have to drop out. x.x
-
Alright, who is currently working on their chapter? Like, how far has the torch been passed, if you get the analogy.
-
I am. Chapter 1. I'm almost done but at the moment some schoolwork has gotten in the way.
-
That was a fast reply! Well, hopefully it makes it makes its way around before too long. Schoolwork is bugging me too, but it sounds like you have it worse than me.
-
Done, and I have pm'd it to AFL.
-
I'll download it as soon as I'm at home. And then off to dwmm!
-
Wooo a chapter complete :D keep at it :)
-
I has gam now i has mayk chapter than send to Not remembered story OK?
-
I gotta admit. Curiosity is probably my greatness weakness. and lately it's been nagging me about the Chain Game. So I need to know, hows it going?
