P.S. Although The House has this entire expense covered from the inside. I'm thinking a LOT of
Folks would want to get in on this development. Crowd-sourcing would be a fun option to explore as an afterthought.
Cool sounds good to me! Crowd sourcing is definitely a viable option IMO, especially if we have something to show for it during that process.
Also if the date is for getting the team together, then the winter solstice works for me.
What I see initially is 4 people involved in the inner circle of this project. Two of which would be you & I.
Each with a particular & unique talent.....
Whoa, wait a minute-
For project sake, I would prefer to describe this to you in private conversation...I'll start it over there.
Cheers to Potential Collaboration!!
Hey Dude, I tries to start a private conversation and this is the error message I kept getting:
Hey Dude,
I tried to start a private convo and kept getting the error message below.
Oh,Mr. Carlwood & your wonky forum 😉 Maybe it's a mobile thing.
Perhaps it will resolve itself later.
In the meantime-
May I ask, are you a life-long gamer?
what was the first video game
you ever remember playing?
The last one?
What is your favorite genre?
Do you think video games
can transcend their apparatus to achieve Real World application/instruction?
What do you consider your strongest skill area?
Who is your favorite author?
Chuk, please feel free to ask any questions you may have.
Great things DO STILL come from humble beginnings!!! Cheers.

My answers to the above questions:
1.) Absolutely! I came of age in the Golden Age of Video Games.
2.) Kangaroo @ the laundromat with my big sister. (Who always kicked my ass in it;)
REALPOLITIKS for PC
3.) Tie between RPG & SIMULATION .
4.) Oh, do I ever! Move over,D.O.D.!!!
5.) Esoteric Marketing & Visionary Ventures.
6.) Jean Baudrillard- whom coincidentally is also my fav modern philosopher. His content & writing style reeeeally melt my butter!

I'm definitely a life-long gamer. It's one of the reason why I decided to jump into game development.
I can't exactly remember the first video game I ever played, but my first system was a sega genesis. I would say the first game I really learned how to play would probably be between sonic 1 since that game with a genesis at that time and altered beast!
My favorite genre right now would probably be roguelike. It doesn't have to be a pure roguelike so rogue-lites also work as well. Runner up genres would be fighting, action, and rpg games!
I do think video games can transcend their apparatus and achieve real world applications, it's actually one of the reasons I'm down this path. I think video games is a highly evolved form of media that has a lot of potential to effect many people in different ways.
My strongest skill area in game development? If that's the case I would say programming, game design, and sound/audio.
My favorite author is kind of a hard one. I don't really have one, but I've read quite a few Robert Anton Wilson books that I've enjoyed!

"Riiiiise From Your Graaavee!"
Power Up!
1.)Glad to know we share similar common ground & gaming/peer reference here.
2.) Mmmm, the sound of collecting those rings floods me with nostalgia! Do you remember the SEGA CD? Sewer Rat?
3.) Gotta love the open-world feel of roguelikes.
4.) Awesome!!! The impressions I get at present suggest an incredible programming ability eminating from you...so your answer makes 100% sense to me.
5.) Right on. One of my older brothers is a huuuuge R.A.W. fan. Good stuff!

NOW, for the other portion of this adventure:
THE INITIATED MATERIAL
*dun dun duuuun
Here's a taste:
For Posterity:
PRESERVATION of the Art
is paramount to any TRUE Magician!
I've been meaning to take a look at the "Greater Key of Solomon". Maybe this collaboration will get me to eventually read it.
Toe Jam & Earl did blow me away when I first played it when I was younger. It was definitely different than anything else at the time and I liked the procedurally generated levels! Plus the music is so catchy!
I remember the sega cd and the 32x. Unfortunately I've never had those additions. Also I never got a chance to purchase a sega saturn as well. I would go to toys r us just to play Nights into Dream.
