I think Crafter_Flance decided to do his own project

Ok, @bluecake, I think that something came to my mind… I have a game idea… It would be a classic catching game, but with some tweaks. I just finished to design the game concept. Here are some pieces that you could work on… (At your own pace ) …please these are just simple sketches, I trust that you can improve these significantly. For now it would be 8 drawings and the game background.
Design
[1] Wheel
[2] Car Body
[3] Small Minion(s) (Consider making this by parts, so I could animate them)
[4] jewel’s basket (bin) (This should have a space in the center to display the jewel to be cached.)
[5] jewel 1
[6] jewel 2
[7] jewel 3
[8] jewel 4
[9] Main Game Background (Consider making this by parts, so I could animate them if needed.)
I’ll be working in the code starting tomorrow, I will work with basic rectangles and shapes initially until I have a good gameplay in place and then to incorporate your drawings.

That sketch looks really good already! I’ll get started on some of the parts tomorrow.

Admittedly I didn’t get as much work done today as I thought I would, it was my dad’s birthday and I spent a lot more time cooking/getting things ready for him ^^’ But tomorrow I think I’ll be able to really get to work on it. By the way, do you want me to share my progress here on the forum, or somewhere else? I know you have a Newgrounds account. I don’t, but I could make one if you think that would be easier for communicating.
(Also, I really like the name you picked ^^)
Good family time is better than anything else. That comes first. I don’t need daily progress or anything. I’ll be working on the gameplay daily a little bit… 1-2hrs daily, until I have it… I think that I can have something functional in 2 to 3 more days…
I’ll be replacing all those squares with your graphics.

Please do an account so I could put you on the credits for the graphics. That would make you a co-creator in Newgrounds and the game will appears in your profile as well.
I think that we should collab and communicate through this forum with all its limitations, I think that is what the forum owners desire… Lets try, it would be a good exercise.

Okay, I will make a Newgrounds account for the reason you mentioned. If you can’t link to your account here (that might be against forum rules?), I’m sure I can find you by finding the Space Rush game.
Actually, I see your account, it has the same name so that confirms it.
I mean, what we are doing is promoting the Wick-Editor on Newgrounds… Every game that we create would have the Loading Splash of the editor. I don’t see anything bad about that. I think this is what they are looking for… we could bring more developers to the Wick-Editor.

Agreed, that would be great to get more people aware of Wick Editor! I just sent you a newgrounds friend request by the way, my NG account also has bluecake in the name

Done. So take your time, there is no rush. As soon as you provide me drawings, I would incorporate them. Thank you!

This is a really short update, I wanted to let you know I’m working on it - right now I have two gem designs (which I will probably try to improve more) and I will get started on the other two gem designs really soon. I also wanted to ask what colors you’d like the gems to be. I saw the note about how each gem will have four different colors, so I wanted to know if you have any specific colors in mind, since that’s something I could work on right now while making the gem designs

Beautiful Art. 
Wow.
In terms of colors… Colors and Shapes would be key for the user to recognize the gems, specially when the gameplay turns harder and harder. I’m about to start working on the gameplay again since last night.
Colors
What do you think…? Similar to these 4…?

I think those colors will be good! After I finish the gem designs and the color variations I’ll post a wick file with the vector graphics.
Thanks, you could still share them the way that you just did until either you finish all of it or I finish the gameplay and I had to start integrating because I would not have anything else to do…
I think that it will be a very good looking game. That is one of the keys in a game.
apologies for butting in, but what’s the game about? is it a game where you have to catch all the gems in that basket you mentioned or else you lose?
Hard to explain in words… but I will try.
It is nothing new. The game will start throwing gems of one kind. You have to catch them… using your arrow keys… left to right, right to left… then everything would be faster… then, the game will start throwing gems of 2 kinds, so the player have to change the bin/basket to the kind to be catch at the moment… this will happen until the game throws gems of 4 different types… so the challenge for the player will be catching the gems through the whole stage, but also changing the bin/basket type for the gem.
It is a casual game, so for collab is great and easy enough.
