Project: Custom Element - Looking for Spriters
Hello everyone, I'm here to tell you about a new project I'm working on called Custom Element that is currently looking for spriters.
I'll tell you about it in my post.

What is Custom Element?
Custom element is an online game [MMO] that will be developed in C++ that's unique to most engines that currently exist. It's custom!

Elements of the game that can be customized are:

Complete personalization of all the characters
That means not one character will have the same abilities or powers. Every character is unique!

Multiple character forms!
When you reach a particular point in battle, your character has the capability to change form (like going Super Saiyan). This is purely optional, though; going into this form requires filling a super bar similar to the ones seen in fighting games. When the bar is at maximum the character will change form and his powers and abilities will change. You can recharge your Super meter by holding a button. (like Ki in the DBZ fighting games)

Combo Items These are items you can buy with the money you earn from killing monsters. This requires a lot of money to purchase(of course) and a particular experience level at which you can use them. When you buy the item, you have the option to select it and give the character the option to use the combo.
Usage of the item will shows a command to press when you want to use the combo [e.g. A+B] and once you use it for the first time, the command will dissapear offscreen and be sent to your combo list for later use. The combo is only used when that command is entered, and there are combos that can be used only in normal state [no Super energy required] and also combos that require some Super bar energy. They of course can only be used with you have the required Super energy - but remember, I mentioned before it's possible to recharge your Super bar by holding a button.

Leveling Up
The difference with experience and leveling in this game compared to other MMOs is that you don't gain new stats, but rather you earn new attacks. With every 3 levels, you'll win Power Attacks that require some energy of your Super bar.
Some Power Attacks are similar to Goku's Kamehameha. Does that make sense? Characters can level up to Level 100; as you level up your lifebar and super bar also increase, meaning you'll be able to withstand more attacks and deal out more damage with Power Attacks and Supers.
Your experience will probably be shown in a circular bar that when you kill monsters, the circle fills and when it's full, you advance to the next level. The circle empties and refills again with each level up. The higher your level, the more experience you need in order to fill the circle.

Mounts
You can also use Mounts, but here's what makes it more interesting - 2 are available for purchase, Dragon Saddles and Horse Saddles. Horse is to jump higher through tiers (in levels?) and Dragons are for midair flight. Reaching level 35 also gives your character the ability to fly without a mount.

Common Items
Items will have the power to protect you with shields, have special weapon properties, life potions among others.

Enemies:
Enemies of the game will include creatures of all mythologies: Giants, Centaurs, Elves, Dwarves, Sphinxes, among others.

Staff
We have a lot of programmers so it makes it easy to maintain the engine. However, graphics are a fundamental part of the game and we don't have any spriters!
We're looking to maintain a Jump Super Stars art style and ask that spriters be able to make sprites like movement, attacking etc. in this art style. Here are some examples:



Requirements to join the project requires two tests of knowledge.
The Custom Elements forum is a Spanish-speaking community (the project is based in Spain) so the ability to speak Spanish is required.
Perks include being able to add the the game engine [ideas for characters, items, mechanics etc.] and pay, too!

[Spanish is my first language so I will probably have some difficulty communicating in English]

Is there a defined genre for this, other than MMO?

Why are you editing from JUS for the game style? Ick.

[Kosheh]

translated first post from machine English to colloquial English to make things a little easier for people interested
I think it's JUS style because the gameplay is very similar to JUS'. It's one of those action MMOs, but ingame there's a super bar like in Street Fighter. I like the custom combo system though; reminds me a little of Draglade.

SPOILERS, TYVON

YOU KNOW YOU COULD JOIN THE PROJECT, MAKE LIKE TWO SPRITES AND SAY "HEY THIS STYLE OWNS, USE THESE INSTEAD"
I'M JUST SAIYAN. HAHA GET IT, "JUST SAIYAN" oh i kill me

The only problem though you'll run into here, buddy is that Spanish requirement to work on the project. Now I understand it's based in Spain and all that, but there are in total like...
4 Spanish-speaking users here @_@ We're a primarily English-speaking forum...we're based in England.

sooooo

finding people here may be a little tough.
