   Looking to network with other developers/designers/mmo fans
  Hello GamedDv enthusiasts,I've been working almost solo on a flash browser MMO-TD. I posted on GameDev a couple months ago as I was starting this project, just as the client-server framework was coming together to confirm the project feasible. It has come a long way since the first post, it now has what you could call a "world" where multiple players can connect to and share as a common playground.The initial goal for this project was to make it available for the iPod & iPad platform, however some of you know Apple has abandoned its support for the Flash platform (yuckk). However, I've been reading up on some recent trends with internet games and social media, and have re-gained some hope for the project. It seems theres been a lot of talk on the topic of Micro-Transactions, especially for small browser games. Many games have already incorporated this strategy using services like Mochimedia to sell levels, upgrades, or items. The other trend I've been reading about is social media. It appears that "social games" targeting non-gamers are doing much better than expected. Zynga's farmville, mafiawars, fishville? are realizing large fan bases of social non-gamers.So anyways, the game is destined to be some kind of mix of MMO, Tower Defence, Social interaction, RPG, and vitual economy. It has been cooking up in my mind for quite some time now. I've found it to be very time-consuming, especially with the emerging milestones like item system, quest systems, general gameplay, and GRAPHICS. Currently the game is a registered app on facebook (not public yet), using FB-Connect to simplify login for FB users. You don't need a FB account to play though.Im looking for anyone interested to come check it out and if its something you would like to be a part of, join the fun.Here is a link to the test server:cannons.no-ip.orgYou can make an account at:cannons.no-ip.org/registerFeel free to contact me if you have any thoughts:rs_creative@hotmail.com[Edited by - rstd on July 10, 2010 11:29:01 AM]
