I could try writing - stories and legends and such; my code skills are nonexistent.

This is pretty much what I meant. I can write lore and such, but somebody else will have to put it into the game, unless:

1)I learn how,
and/or
2)it's really, really easy.

I would like to volunteer for writing, but also for proofreading.

Show me some of your work.

I'll be putting it into the game, don't worry.

What would you like me to give you? Any particular type of writing?

My sig has a poem, but I switched computers a few months ago, and thus lack material on this device as of yet. I can try to type something up.

Some example dialogue and an example 'end of game' narrative would be good.

Some example dialogue and an example 'end of game' narrative would be good.

Dialogue for a joker-type character:

Introduction (friendly):
“Who am I? I'm me, of course! Who else would I be?”
“So, you're a dragon, eh? Huh, I didn't notice.”

Introduction (unknown):
“So you're a dragon, eh? If you're about to breathe fire, at least brush your teeth first. All those sheep must be bad for your breath.” <--- might be better suited for a “disliked, but not actually hated” thing.

I'll try my hand at creating an end-of-game thing in a bit. How verbose should it be?

Just post it in the thread.

Whatever you find reasonable.

Okay, I have really fallen through on this.  I apologize, but I no longer feel the will to work on this.  Might have been my lack of knowledge, might have been the lack of being able to find an engine to commit to, might have been the initial difficulties trying to learn Java, might have been troubles with using the compiler, but in any case, I lost the will to work on the project.  Again I apologize.  If anyone wants to take over this project, feel free to.  You don't have to worry about the code, since there really isn't any.  Well...there was this horrendous false start near the beginning of the project, but I abandoned it, because the engine wasn't finished:

Should be link to the game with the fixed manifest document.

Interesting thing to note: if you hit opposing directional keys at the same time, it locks up movement on that axis.

As I said before, I am sorry for having strung everyone on for this long, and if anyone wants to take over, feel free to.

No problem. If you start something, don't feel ashamed to abandon it.
