Rounding up Talent

Was watching the /cm/ thread a while ago and someone mentioned wanting a fanmade game, I'm really into the idea, but am lacking serious programming skills. Is anyone interested in throwing in a hand or two in terms of programming and/or art?

Also, I'm not sure what kind of a game it would be. Visual novel style or a dating sim or... something completely different. And honestly it can be as simple as one of those cheesy flash quiz dating sim things, or more complicated like one of those Renpy games, doesn't matter. I just want to get something done.

If it were something like a visual novel or a dating sim an engine like Ren'Py is a good choice, I think. I've only tried to do very simple stuff, but from their list of games (http://www.renpy.org/wiki/renpy/Ren%27Py_Games) I think the possibility to do more complex stuff is there.

I could help with programming, whether it's with Ren'py or something else.

Yeah, I've been looking into possible engines, and Ren'Py seems to be the best one for this kind of stuff. I don't really want to get into anything more complex in terms of programming, just a lot of branches and scenarios since this is just a fan game.

@ u @ and since you have experience on it, more points for RenPy.
