Hello there guys,
In my free time (I have done this before) I am looking to start developing games again. This time however, I want to develop as part of a team since I think it is important to realise that you cannot always do everything yourself.
We would start off creating 2D games, since they are the easiest to make. Just to clarify, I am not interested in using "Game Maker Studio", "Construct 2" or any other tool like that out there. I want us to code the entire thing ourselves, with the possible exceptions of libraries like SDL and OpenGL/LWJGL etc that would deal with the windowing system and rendering graphics. I understand the purpose of using a pre-built engine to create a 3D game, but I have no interest in making 2D games using such engines - since they just cause inefficiency and don't demonstrate the tools that are required to create more complex games.
In short, I want anyone who has any experience programming (it doesn't matter how much you have) and who might be interested in working with others to develop games to reply to this thread, stating your preferred contact method (you don't have to provide the actual details below, they can be done in a PM), the languages that you know (and your level in them) and also your age.
I will try not to judge by age, but please be honest with your abilities.
Bear in mind that scripting languages such as Python, Lua and ActionScript (for Flash) are not really suitable for this sort of project!
Thank you for reading this far, and I look forward to hearing from you!
