Everyone is invited to the Summer Chinese Whisper Challenge!

@andyg1985 Something like that. I didn't really intend to give a genre, but I could if you want to?
I will give you a cryptic title though. (I have a system worked out for that!)
-
Cool, can’t wait! Forget about the genre, I just wondered what you meant :)
-
I'l give it a go(friend share currently not working), looking forward to the Frankenstein project.
-
I'll join in too. My friend shares are probably not working though. It will be a lot of fun to see what we make.
-
This is a neat idea! I would like to join. I might be able to contribute certain weeks more or less than others, but I will try!
-
So, just to clarify: if we are five people, there will be five games in total. The first week everyone’s starts on a project. The following week, all projects move on to the next person in a circular fashion. Person 2 gets person 1’s project, person 3 gets person 2’s project, and so on…

I think it is to be expected that we are not able to do lots of work every week. Life will likely get in the way.
But let’s all do our best to do at least a small contribution each week. (On the other hand, skipping a week is of course fine too!)
-
I'll participate too.

Ok I’ll do it too.

Super happy that eight people signed up for this little experiment. I think we are going to have a lot of fun!
Here is a list I have put together that shows who will be working on which game:
As you can see, each game has been given a placeholder title, but that will likely change for the finished game. Presumably the people who put the title screen together will pick the name? Or not, it all depends.
So, Week 1 starts today, which means that the following people will be working on the following games:
When the week is finished (that is on next Thursday, or a day in advance if you need to share outside of the friend sharing) it is time to give the project to the next person by sharing it using the placeholder name and "1". So for instance, my game will be shared with the title "Wannabe 1"...
I will set up a new thread for each game in order to not clutter this thread to much. Feel free to use the game-specific threads to share updates and screenshots, ask questions of each other, request help, and so on. When sharing, one can write a message to give the next person a heads-up that it will be available for them to start on.
So the first development week officially begins now!
Have fun! Be excellent to each other!Post here if you have any general questions.

And just to bump this again...

Edit: typo, sorry! Fixed now.

Purple has bowed out of the challenge, so here is an updated schedule:
-
UPDATE:
Some people have requested some extra time this week for their games, so we will do the switching on Saturday instead. If you are sharing with a Download ID, please try to have the game ready on Friday so that the Fuze people have time to approve all games before Saturday.
This means that for the last few weeks we will have Saturday as our new game switching day. I will update the schedules later to reflect this change.
-
I'm away on the 23rd so i won't be able to work on the last game :/ if there's any chance of getting it earlier or a part I can chip away at till then would be good although not the end of the world.

Here is the updated schedule:
