Will we ever do a new community-based fan-game?

[OssieTheOstrich]

I think the only one that is not dead or canceled is, if i recall correctly, Super Mario Bros and the Midas Machine.

The one that i really want to see back is New Super MFGG Bros. (With a different name probably.)

List of projects I eventually plan to finish after the indefinite hiatus is over, assuming I don't abruptly cancel them:

Spoiler

Mario's Rather Unusual Trilogy (Mario's slightly unusual Boss Rush (Completed), Mario vs. Some Unusual Foes (In development), Mario's VERY Unusual Final Frontier (In development))
Sonic's Foray into Random/Unusual Zones (spin-off of Unusual Trilogy, in development)
Angry Birds Slingshot Frenzy (In development)
Super Mario Flashback: Really Good Edition (In development)
Super Hilda DX (In only conceptual phase)

Yes, I am aware that I have about 6 or so fangame projects currently in development at the same time. And yes, I am also aware that all of this is very ambitious.

+ List of projects I'm helping out with in some small capacity during my hiatus:

Spoiler

Super Mario Bros Dimensions 2 (as a spriter, only for Mario's sprites)
MFGG Community Fangame Project 3 (as a spriter)
WordGirl ReWired (as a artist)

Start one! It doesn't necessarily need staff approval or anything. Just get some people together and make it.

Hylian's day job, little did we know, was saying controversial things on the internet.

you fool!!!! you fixed it wrong!!!!

I would absolutely love to see this! If anyone wants to start a new CFP, you're more than welcome to do so.

My only advice is to keep scalable - make something like a minigame collection where you can start small and increase the scope of the project if a lot of people contribute. (This way, if interest fades, you'll still be able to release a shorter but enjoyable game.)

Course clear! You got a card.

Agreed. This.

It would be cool to see a CFP. The only problem is that scale is an issue with these due to people losing interest. Games are big and take a lot of work.

I think one way to remedy the issue of feature creep is to make the contribution process more bite-sized. A full-fledged Mario fan game with 8 worlds and multiple playable characters built from scratch might be a bit much, but a WarioWare collab or level design contest with pre-built engines might be more manageable.
