So I spent last night on a C64 emulator playing Ultima III. It's my favorite one of the whole series. I also checked out the Adventure Mode of Dwarf Fortress (someone mailed me on YouTube suggesting it) and I'm really impressed but there isn't no over all 'save the world' quests or anything like that.

Anyways, as I was playing UIII last night I thought about a game concept that combines the two concepts. A game that uses classic Ultima III gfx but with a random world generator and a huge epic 'save the world' quest.... well.. sort of.. I'd like to write a completely original storyline that isn't Ultima related.

I actually have the means of doing this but it's just that I need to find an game engine and learn scripting for it.... and I need time.

Years ago I wanted to do sometime similar for a Tron RPG/Game Chat world that had gfx like the old Phantasy Star games that was on the Genesis/Mega Drive and was exclusive to Tron-Sector.com. But of course like most of my ideas I never have time to do it nor do I know anyone that would be interested in working on a project with me.

Is there anyone here at the sector that has any indie game developing experience?

I know a little bit of Cinema 4D, but mostly I'm good at photo art and I know I could do the art for a game, it's just that I'd need a little bit of direction. I'm also pretty good at making music but I have issues with a sound card and I'm sort of stuck with that at the moment till I get a new one. I was making a small platformer on Multimedia Fusion and did all the artwork for that but I never got the chance to finish it. I'm wanting to scout out some game engines to see what works best with what I'm wanting to do.
