Would people pay $19-40 if jibberish where a full on game done by an actual design team?

Also who did the original coding, or who keeps it updated?

Yeh I think allot of people would be down to see it develop into a fully functional game. The only reason I bring it up, is because I am actually a game designer, and recently came into contact with someone who might be able to make it happen.

Would be so legit.

if you made it thee slightest bit like amped 2 id buy it , pre order it infact. and im not even a gamer. but amped 2 still remains my favourite game, its awesome.
its like i can ski, be a lazy ass, and wreck myself with out pain and never having to leaving my sofa.

a skiing version of amped 2 would be fucking dope. the physics in amped 2 are tight. and the steeze meter! everything is amped 2 is pretty sick, just convert it from knuckledragging to skiing

i think everyone on this site would pay up to 50 at least for a killer ski game with graphics that match amped3 and physics that were as good or better than amped.

i know i'd save mah pennies fer it.

Your best bet with a low(no) budget is to try and adapt it to DS-lite or PSP. Full-fledged PS2 or console games require a giant expensive SDK unless you wanna sell only to kids with modchips.
DSlite is easy to develop for... my friend's making an RPG for it in BASIC, haha.

1) you aren't a girl
2) if its modchip only, you'll lose at least 90% of your potential buyers. And its illegal to sell software that only works with a modchip as you're circumventing sony's SDK

It is MAD hard to even get approval to make games for consoles, your right, but I might just be able to skip over that process altogether.

I gotta get the original coders permission first haha. If he ok's it then I am sure we will have talks about stuff like that.

I hope he is down to make this happen because I know allot of peeps out there want it to.

If he doesn't come through I have 3 engine coders lined up to start from scratch :: )

That would be sick for sure. you could also talk about it to NS management and ski companies so that they can sponsor the game.

Nope it will be realistic.

And I think I will probably put a site online with a forum for the game so that you all can give feedback on how it should be built and just what features you'd want to see.

It will take at least a year, if we have to go from scratch, to build the game. If we can use the Jibberish code, it might be quicker, not sure how in depth the code of that game is though.

This will happen one way or another, just give me a week or so to sort it all out and get a site.

Anyone wanna help design a killer site for it? I will pay for the domain and hosting and all that, as well as set up all of it and provide the content.

I am quite serious about making this happen, just heard back from one of our teams coders, he is SO down to help out.

Just keep it to the PC and distribute online. This will leave you with a far bigger budget and you'll make much more money. Also, you can keep all the customisation options that Jibberish has at present.

yeah but you can link up your ps2 or ps3 or xbox or whatever to the interent to download and use all the new grabs and shit thats coming out now so it would be the same. plus, i dont want to clutter up my computer with a gigantic jibberish game.

and i feel playing video games on a console is way less nerdy than on computers.

Not looking to make mad bills out of it really, but I can pretty much promise it will start out as a pc game, and then grow from there.

sessions would be sooo sick, esp. if you could hike a feature, like in THU where you jump off the board, click off your skis and hike a feature with some friends

Word dude, I'm a designer over at Vicarious Visions in NY.

...and speaking from experience, a game of this kind of magnitude on any platform isn't easy. Especially if you want to do it well enough to sell it.

Yep. I know of them, nice to see another designer who is down with newschool skiing haha.

And yes I know a game like this would take a while to get platformed, or even developed, however the nice thing about the where the industry is headed, if you do it right from the get go, the later steps kind of fall in place.

And I am not that interested in making money off this, I just want a killer game I can play during the summer and I know mad people out there do to.

It would take a while to get it to that point, but I am sure we can get it there eventually with a relatively small design team.

This game has the potential to be sooo fucking awesome. Pick up a bunch of dope sponsors. Get these guys paid and get it working for MACS damnit! I miss Jibberish so much.
