I'm Organizing a Chrono Trigger Skit Collaboration!

Posted by Clovis15 - December 30th, 2010


ACTUAL POST: http://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/12 21292

I've been thinking about doing this for quite a while, and I've finally decided to sit down and get this started. After all, if I don't, it doesn't seem like anyone else will either. So here's the deal, Newgrounds has not yet had a multiple author Chrono series based skit compilation, so let's work on fixing that. Here are the following guidelines for the project so far:

- Entries may be of any length you deem fit for the idea, and can actually get done.
- Entries are to be 30fps, at 550x400 (default resolution), with your stage color set to black.
- Only use Flash 8 or earlier (See update at bottom of post), have all audio files set to stream rather than event, and be sure to have everything in the symbol library have your user name as part of the symbol name (i.e.: Clovis15_Crono_Running_Up).
- I will be putting in as many entries as size limitations will allow, there will be no specific number of entries I am shooting for.
- I will accept entries that are either hand animated, or sprite animated, but I will only be accepting entries that are actually good. Also, if space limitations become an issue, hand drawn will be factored as a plus (although I will also ask Tom Fulp for permission to go over when we get there).
- Please only use original music from the portal, or music from the games. I respect Tom Fulp's wishes, so I don't want to see any copyrighted music from Record Labels showing up in here. Free use laws protect parodies of a subject matter, but the use of copyrighted music is never protected even if it is used in the context a parody.
- Deadline is currently end of April. I don't know how realistic that is, so I am willing to extend the time when we get there if necessary. However, I'm only going to permit extensions for people who can show they're working on something.
- All submissions should somehow be related to Chrono Trigger, Chrono Cross, or - if you really want to be hardcore - Radical Dreamers. I will be automatically rejecting any skits that are based around any of the Chrono Fan Games that Square-Enix has issued C&Ds, so no skits about Crimson Echoes please. Other than that, feel free to go Hog Wild.
- The use of voice acting is heavily encouraged, but - unless your skit somehow involves something along the lines of Crono and Company discovering that Lavos is really Strawberry Clock - I am not accepting anything that uses Speakonia.
- It's the .fla files you will actually have to submit, so be prepared to use Megaupload.

Oh yes, we need a pithy name for it once its released. I'm open for suggestions.

UPDATE: I have found some help in assembling the final product, and thus we will be able to accept submissions from versions of Flash beyond 8.

Flash 8 or earlier is an insane requirement.

I could permit higher versions of flash, but then I would have to get a lot of help putting everything together at the end.

OMFG! About damn time! I need to get one in there! I'm in x9001!!!

I just need to....replay the whole game!!

Be sure to use a new game+, it'll go quicker and leave more time for the animating.

Agreed with Loy6.

That's an insane request. You're going to have to cope with later versions of Flash if you want this collab to work.

I will see if I can get help for assembling that.

I am so in.

I look forward to your submission.

I can give hilarious ideas.
Nothing much I can do right now, but I would love to help SOMEHOW!
Message me.

I dont think i should do a new game plus, everyones already at lvl 99, unlocked all the endings too! But, whatever, the scripts nearly formed in my head

Awesome, I look forward to seeing what you come up with.

Know what? Go ahead and count me in!

Awesome! I had been currently wondering whether or not it would be a good idea to message you about this, what with you currently being in production on Game Ranger 4 and the recent shoulder surgeries, but it seems you found out on your own. Anyways, I look forward to your submission!

Hey, I'll be collaborating with betteratbrawl7777. He's played it, but doesn't have much animating skills. So I'm here to help. Is this ok? Can we join?

Yes, it's okay for people to work together.
