Thread: Lucid Dream Game Idea

I absolutely NEED to know if you guys are using any SCM. All of the devs need to be able to handle this, otherwise working on a multi-dev project is the most painful experience ever.

TheOneirologist, thanks

Artelis, yes, we are using a type of SCM designed for multi-dev environments.
We also have a system set up to allow for people unfamiliar with using SCM systems to upload their files.

Also, as TheOneirologist said, the more experienced people we have on our team, the more likely it is that our project won't flop. That is precisely why we have have the application system on our site (ASEA Developer Headquarters) so we can accept people with higher-experience.

Also, here is an exciting announcement, that probably should have been announced a month ago. We are now a registered LLC based in the United States.

you can't tell me more about the SCM because it's all hush hush? I think this project may be taking itself a little too seriously for me. I also am just now realizing you guys are -actually- expecting to make money off of this. I was hoping this was a just-for-fun community project.

At first I think was for fun, a cooperative project. However, it pretty much exploded and we realized that it wasn't just a fun-and-games kind of thing. We ended up turning into a real company, and thus we decided that we should start acting like one, to some extent. That's why we're pretty selective about what we reveal outside our forums. That's also why we have an application system. I don't know if anyone has mentioned this, but the dreaming game isn't the only one we're working on. We're actually making multiple small games, that will likely later be available in iOS. Now you see why I'm interested in you.

Ask any company what they use for SCM and they'll tell you. This isn't a proprietary secret.

Just posting to say that the team is celebrating our first birthday! A year ago tomorrow we started the Forumotion forum, which would later be intergrated into our current forum. Just want to give a shout out to all the team here and to everyone else, we are still accepting applications! You can apply to be on the team here! ASEA Developer Headquarters
Thanks everyone for your continued interest, and happy dreaming!

Wow, just have to say that I thought it was a cool game idea at first and now it's just wow. Good luck guys.

Oh, that's rather exciting. Congrats, guys.

I know a bit of the graphics world :O

Blunt,

If you are suggesting interest in the game, I'll be in touch.

Thanks,

The Sandman

I was marked in-active again

I was just wondering if I could be a Beta tester for this game
I don't mind messing up my computer or anything like that
Maybe I could give ideas?
I don't know....
Could I apply for any of these?

Hi boxin20,

Sure you can apply. Just click "Apply" in my signature.

Thanks for your interest.

Applied . Hope you look into it

I applied already, how soon can I expect a reply?

Presumably three days, but a lot of our members seem to be busy as of recently, so it may take a little longer.

jak,

Forgive. I'll be in touch with you within 3 days.

I applied because I was bored and I'm a decent programmer.

Thanks Nakara. I reviewed your application. I'll be in touch with you.

Thanks, Sandman.
@Nakara, same boat here, although now this seems like more of an enterprise than a hobby.

jak,

Which do you prefer, a hobby, or an enterprise?

Sandman: Okay, thanks
Jak: Yeah but its something to do so why not.

For now, just a hobby. I feel like that's the wrong answer.

Lunatide,

If you haven't already applied, please do. We could really use someone with your ideas and experience!
In reply to the ideas, many factors of the game have already been decided; for instance, rather than orbs giving you lucidity, I believe the current concept is that you have to reality check and stay still to make your lucidity recharge, which may also be causing a blur effect depending on how low it is. Anyhow, come on over and we can get you caught up with everything that's going on.

On a side note, I'm not sure that we've gotten our company name out there; most of our signatures say "Lucid Dream Video Game Project." For a while now, we have been known as AstralSoft Entertainment Arts!

jak,

That's not the wrong answer. That's just fine...and again, give me a couple more days.
