Anything. Anything at all, if anybody would be interested in helping in this project, I would be happy to have you on board. Whether it be Screen Design, Scripting (We don't NEED scripters, as I am a fine one myself, but it would surely make things faster), Dungeon Design, Anything. I currently have the outline of the story planned out, and the basic themes/names of the first 10 dungeons. If anybody wishes to join this project in ANY WAY, please post here.

 Edit: Also, I am sticking with my decision to use DoR. I can't design very well in simple tilesets (Ironic, I am using the most complex tileset to screen design easier), and even then, I feel DoR would be the best tileset to suit my quest. 

Keep in mind, I made the GBC demo more than half a year ago, I only just published it now. I have gotten a lot more experience with both scripting and ZQuest. However, this project is a big project, and I still need as much help as I can get.

You should show off some DoR screens you've made. It'll help people get an idea what they're signing up for here.

Well, I added screenshots of the new DoR screens. You can view all 5 images here: http://imgur.com/a/lhXyb#0

Or you can view them when I post them in the screenshots section,

Sure, I'll hop on board. Why not? I am not working on anything ZQuest related, I am just doing school work and some YouTube stuff, so I will get up on this! It looks really nice, but the screens could use some work. I can do some screen work, as that is my most competent field. (I have won Screenshot: Challenge Accepted, and you can see my projects for some of my screen work.) So, I would be glad to help!

I  want to help, and it would give me good practice in working with and experimenting with the DoR tileset as I am thinking on doing my next quest in it, plus would give me invaluable experience with and insight to how other people set up their quests and work with their tiles and such... however I' don't think I'd be able to do all too much  or be much help due to school having started up again. However, if you end up in a jam and still need people for screen design and such (no scripting) let me know :)

No problem, though as I said I may not have as much time to contribute as I would like. I am happy to be on board though and will do all I can ! :D

I also wish to point out that the project is currently in the "gathering ideas" phase. I have barely, if anything, done, in terms of screen design. Those sample screens are just examples of the kind of screen design I want the quest to be in. The project itself is ambitious (2 overworlds, both 16x16), and if you wish to leave, then I respect your decision to do so. Otherwise, I welcome you on board!

EDIT: Also, the quest is often prone to sudden change, as you will see in my upcoming update.

If anything that will make things a bit easier as there won't be as much catch up and looking through with what has been made already :P I will stay on as even with as ambitious as it sounds it also sounds like it will be quite alot of fun and something I would regret not being a part of  :)

Welcome Aboard! I think we should continue this in the Dev topic, so as to not spoil anything for the public, but do you prefer Dungeon Design, or Overworld Design?

Both of them are quite fun to do, though I admit that I have zero experience with scripts and incorporating them, so if you are looking for scripted dungeon elements then I'd be next to useless in working with them at this point :P So I think we can decide where I'd best be of most use as you decide on how you want to go in not only dungeon but overworld design as well as I'm willing to do both.

But yes we should continue this in a Dev topic.
