I see it, and I will use it 
Btw, the Jontron pixel artist, aka Michifrar (http://michafrar.tumblr.com/)
does NOT accept commissions. With that, I assume they wouldn't work on ORiGiNS. But alas, I will continue my search for some good pixel artists

what a shame 
good stuff on the search tho, keep me posting.
i'm gonna keep looking for funding when I have the time.
also, a good place to look for pixel artists might be odesk.com or elance.com
or any gamedev forum.

was playing around on my keyboard today and I don't think it would be too difficult at all to come up with a complete OST my self for this game. as long as I had the proper recording equipment.

Ya man, music is complicated but at the same time I feel like it can be made pretty easily. You should download some music making program and make some kind of test song. Then post it here so we can hear it and shit

i've decided that openGL is a lil too highlevel and is unnecessary for this type of game. i'm going to use SDL instead. it will be a true spiritual successor of RCT1 this way.

SDL seems like a fine way to make ORiGiNS. It looks like some fine games have been created using it.
By the sounds of it though, would you need to make an engine for ORiGiNS to work on? Or does SDL work in some other way

sdl just provides the tools needed to interface with the graphical and audio systems of a computer, and it's just bare basics, exactly what we need since we're just drawing pixels to the screen.

yo vy i can't find the old sprite of gorni you did up a while back. i remember really really liking it.
do you think you'll have free time any time in the near future to make another one? soon i'll have enough of a system written up that i'll be able to test character sprites

update: i can now segment sprite sheets and print whatever sprite from the sheet wherever i want on screen.
next i'm gonna make it so it can read files that represent maps and print the map on screen.
then i'll have to add camera functionality and map generation.
but now that i think about it, map generation could/perhaps should be one of the last things implemented.

I want to learn how to use FL Studios so that I can help contribute some music to this game. That would definitely be a journey, learning how to compose

yo! i definitely recommend you dl it and start messing around. it's plenty fun.
i can't wait to get started on the soundscape for this game. i've just been lacking inspiration lately, i'm not entirely sure yet what i want the music to sound like.

Hmmm....do you think it could be really ambient? I was thinking it would sound cool if it had a sort of tribal sound to it. Like, imagine this song playing if you started fighting a rival tribe or something:
