Nobody seems to want to take charge on this so I will. We need to get something started so we can work toward some goals. First, I think we should decide how the game is going to be laid out. We need to decide if it is going to have chapters/levels or not and if the game will save or if you will restart if you die. That will make a large impact on how planning different aspects of the game will go. It is also important to decide how the game will be played ASAP. This is going to be some sort of text adventure, so I assume it will work like Zork. But that isn't the only option. We could make it a CYOA. That would probably be a lot easier to do.
We also need to discuss a basic storyline, which can be modified/added to later. We need the major story arc ideas completed before we get anywhere. There were a bunch of ideas all over the place, and I saved some of the best ones (IMO) in a text document which will be posted on the story discussion board. We can start from there.
We will either need a lot of people who know different aspects of game making, or a few people who are willing to learn and dedicate themselves to this project. We already have a bunch of people to contribute to the story, but we need people who are able to program. This is supposed to be made for the DS, so we either need somebody who has made DS homebrew before or somebody who is willing to learn.
This is probably going to be a lot more work that anybody realized. I'm going to make a list of people who are willing to help on this and edit it whenever somebody new comes up. Just post here what you are planning on doing/willing to do, and I will add you to the list.
