| So me and a couple other people on a differnt site are putting together a RE 2D game. We currently need some help with Voice acting, Sound track, Drawing, etc. If you feel you can contribute in any way PLEASE send me a PM and I will tell you how to contact the director and the other people helping develop

| You're really going to have to give us a bit more info.
Over the years there's lots of people working on unofficial fangames and none of them ever get off the ground, let alone get finished. Post up some screenshots of the project, the webpage, tell us about it.
I'd love to help, I can voice a male character. I've got a good mic. |

| That's what I was afraid of, everything about this looks like a dead-end pipe dream. Someone who wants to work on a game but doesn't understand anything about making one, nor has a team that can make one.
I wish them the best, but we've seen these before. Someone who's never made a game, puts up a web site and hopes for people to join and make it. The fact that they think they're going to port it over to xbox360, ps3 etc... is pure lunacy. It costs at least $50,000 to submit to Microsoft for final approval for game to be shipped, let alone the development cost.
They hope the development cycle is less than a year but they have no idea what its going to cost... There's no list of members, it doesn't show anyone's skills. If the head programer was someone who made and shipped indie games before I'd believe it but this feels like a 14 year old naive resident evil fan who actually believed his parents when they told him "if you wish hard enough your dreams will come true."
Sad but it needs to be sad before anyone wastes their time or money on this. Sorry. I've been there myself. I was one of those 14 year naive kids once. |

| Yeah I have to laugh at a few things here, you can't produce a fully working REclone in under a year especially if you have no one on the team who is a more than qualified programmer and even then you need more than one. And being paid to do this? You do know because its a copyrighted franchise you will get your ass sued right?
Make it non profit find people who actually know how the hell to make a game, and why are there so many game design advisers? You only need one.
Advice on this from a 3D artist who went to uni studied games design has a degree and is working in an indie company and a non profit RE modding team?
Don't think you have the ability to just make a game it takes years to learn everything you need to know and even then you have to do your own learning in your spare time before you can master anything.
Programming is one on one with your own morality you will be begging, screaming and kicking because one code segment is off by one digit or one semi colon is out of place and your compiler is spewing you with errors, are you going to be using OOP, or will it all be hard-coded? Is it going to be coded in Java or C++ or C# for that matter?
3D wise have you considered polygon budget, texture resolution who the animator is going to be? Are you going be doing topology baking? Adding all those things i've said how are you going to keep your engine bug free and make it all run efficiently without it taking up resources like memory for example? If you don't know what the hell i'm on about then stop now take a deep breath, your not ready to make anything so advanced and over the top you need to begin simple and learn everything you need to know.
@Voltius Unity has the option to compile games for a lot of consoles as of now, although if they don't know a thing about the technical side of things it won't work and plus you need to buy licenses for all the consoles you want to use(I only ever use the free version) but obviously the only way anyone could play them is either with a hacked console that would allow custom code to be played or a dev console (and they cost an arm and a leg to purchase)
Other than that never let your dreams be just dreams get educated and let them become a reality that's what I did.

| I would have no clue on programming, seeing I'm just a writer.
But if it makes you feel any better, Alyson Court (Claire Redfield's Voice Actor) Has agreed to voice act for this game. |
