Plan for Tim "Zear" Hammock
by Tim "Zear" Hammock · 08/13/2001 (5:14 pm) · 2 comments
Plan? No plan...
I am a hobbyist, a rabid Tribes fan, and a glutton for complexity. I have ideas, I have some skills, but at the moment I wouldn't claim to have a plan.
Obviously, without a plan, I'm going to have a hard time producing a salable product. I know. But let's be honest - how many licensees do GarageGames really think will produce a salable product? Not many; be realistic. So I am excited just to pretend.
I AM happy to throw my bucks into the coffer just to have the opportunity to play with the engine. Actually, it's less 'happy' and more 'so excited that my wife is getting sick of hearing about it'. Should I actually create something great then that's a bonus.
I have a regular job to do, a family to spend time with, and many other items to deal with. The result is I don't have a lot of time, or even a regular allotment of time, to work on this. So if you are looking for help, it sounds fun but I can't really commit in a way that would do you justice. At least not unless you can offer pay comparable to my current job at Symantec, along with some guarantee of long term job stability. Hehe - didn't think so...
Well, you read this far. Why? I have no idea. You MUST have some coding to do. Or scripting. Or modelling. Or mapping. Or ...

Hehe, hey Zear. Don't worry, you won't be dissapointed. My only qualm about the engine so far is there are no do {...} while(); loops in the scripting language...but I'm working on that...-KB
