I'll volunteer for Dialogue, too. I'd love to make people say cheesy things. XD

No problemo Bag. f:)
Anyway, i've typed up a rough outline of the story in the game. Here are my thoughts:
NTWF Island is at peace, and the delightfully insane denizens happily chat, play, glomp, eat, and make funny noises amongst themselves.
But one day, a big-but-not-too-big asteroid crashes into the center of the island. Several characters come from all around to see the asteroid, but when they all gather in a circle around it and start poking it with sharp objects, it cracks open like an egg. But this isn't a bird... it's something evil. A monster so evil and dark that it will stop at nothing until it takes over the island. So, it hypnotizes all the characters nearby and orders them to start conquering key locations.
Back at the town, the residents recieve news that the once-kind NTWF members have gone completely insane. Patjade hears of this and immediately embarks on a journey to find out what's going on, and ultimately, to put a stop to the evil monster's plans... whatever or whoever he/she/it is.
With this storyline, the bosses in each world will actually be possessed (hypnotized) forum members. Defeating the boss will not kill the character, but instead, he or she will "snap out" of it and return back to normal. As an added bonus, some characters will give special gifts as a thank-you for breaking the spell (additional heart containers, special abilities, or open up an area on the world map for you).
In any case, I think it would be cool to have NTWF characters as bosses. Anybody who has recieved a baby character from Leoness in the past may elect to become a boss, but I'll probably only be able to use one per world. Likewise, you may also volunteer to become an NPC (non-player character; in other words, somebody who is not an enemy, but a friend who can offer advice, items, or other useful things).

NPC for me, since mine isn't done yet. (Besides, I'm not that evil. *is shot*)

Are we all going to be characters? =o Or just Leoness's chibi's?
I wish I could help, but I can't really do much on your list. XDD

Well, it helps if I have a Leo-Chibi to work from, but if you have a cartoonish drawing of yourself, I could work from that.

Hah, no one knows what I look like so I'll just stick with behind-the-scenes work. You wanted concept art? You've got concept art. (A cheesy monster for the underwater world.) Yes, it's rough and uncolored, but I'd like to know what you all think before I go to the trouble of coloring it. img456.imageshack.us/img456/3810/conceptmarmeep0sb.gif

Sure, Will. f:) Tashni - Nice concept art. I'll keep that one in mind. Currently, I am trying to draw the basic animations for Patjade. Running, jumping, falling, using the bow, flinching, that kind of stuff. I'll need to do this first before I can develop the levels.

Heh, I liked the idea of the "Proboards Glitch," so I made this as a monster idea: (It looks more interesting at 8x size... XD) Sort of like "Missingno" from Pokemon... except colorful. And containing the word 'glitch' within its pixels. Don't worry, my other concepts will be prettier...

No, the big boss should be Tracy, so then everybody can know who'd win in a fight with Patjade and Tracy. ^_^

XD Or, Stal could be a boss and that's one of his attacks. j;) Can I be an NPC too? ^_^
