    WTF?
    Among You!
    I thought to myself the other day wouldn't it be great to make your own gaming app. I then realised that I didn't have programmers, artists, financer and loads of other roles. Then I thought to myself what about TA it has loads of creative funny people, programmers and kind people that just want to help out.

    So this is what I want to put forward that the users of TA make an app. Now don't flame me just yet. This could be a test to see how it fairs, an experiment (and if possible make some money on the side :D)

    This is just something I would like to try out and see if anyone is interested. If not that's no problem at all.

    All Positions are needed. Do you want to join the team?

    I've no skills other than Photoshop. But anyways, I got this great idea if you wanna make a game: A kart racing game with all the App store favs! (this idea)

    It would be EASILY become one of the biggest hits in iPhone gaming history.

    Also, I'm getting a Mac next week from school. So SKU! =D

    Easily? I dunno, cause most kart games suck on iPhone.

    ...to be honest a lot of kart games suck on any platform.

    Well, if we do it right, it won't.
    And to me it seems that almost everyone wants a Mario Kart-clone to their iPhone, like we want GTA, FPS-games and all these. Amirite?

    If we even made a game it wouldn't be anything 3d the best thing for us to do would be like a design heavy platformer using cocos2d so we don't need any super crazy programming skills.
