And what do you do in the game? Do you program it? Do you have anything done? gameplay ideas? anything? This is simply a request. Offering money isn't worth much if people don't know if you have solid evidence that you're doing something.

I'm the Game Designer and Creative Director, I create the battle mechanics and Game Docs. I also coincidentally am the founder of the company which means I over see project management. Currently I have 14 people working on four Projects. 2 Xbox Games (RPG and a 2D Fighter), a facebook App (turn based tactical Fighter), and an Apple ios App (Strategy).
This is just one of the few. My Current animator could use some back-up. She is not a pixel artist, but a superb animator using the same process as sprite sheets just not pixel based. I have team members in Italy, Argentina, NY, NC, and GA.

well then, all I can say is that if you're making those games, you won't get a lot of help in this forum, sadly. While it's not prohibited, recruit threads aren't what you're supposed to make in the gamedev section. It's more to showcase your work and eventually get help if people are interested.

making a huge project recruitment as for first post in tSR certainly won't help you getting any people interested on it, I think.
