I've hit a writer's block (of sorts) with TMJ and am asking for help from members of the community. We're good with sprites, tiles, story, enemies, game engine, cels, and many other aspects, but what we need is level designs. I am asking for one or more contributors in the team who can quickly begin sketching out rough level designs on paper or in a paint program to be used for tiling into final level maps. I haven't been able to find the time to design levels on my own then tile them into their final forms. It is just too time-consuming for me with so many other projects and duties during a typical day.

If you are seriously interested and can dedicate yourself to designing entire levels in a matter of days, then let me know in the blog comments, and I will get in touch with you. These levels should look like the style of RPGs of the 16-bit era. I am looking for villages, caves, castles, houses, farms, battlegrounds, ships, etc. Some specific levels with required layout templates are in high priority for the next couple weeks.

Because of these requirements, the Halvera Castle demo with King Drip Drop has been delayed into June, but I would like this demo to include Halvera Castle, Halvera Village (already sketched), and the cave leading to the valley that contains both. The last demo with the section of Bryn is going to be probably 5% of the size of this demo, so you will actually be able to explore this demo for a considerable amount of time before seeing everything.

Keep in mind that once level designs are in place, we can make the push for the final game release, since most of the engine has been ready for a few months.

Update 2013-07-14
I would like to take a break from the SDK Community App and focus my efforts on TMJ, but no one has offered any assistance beyond a simple "I'm interested!" that fizzles into nothing. Keep in mind that I have a family, a full-time job, and numerous other projects, so TMJ cannot be completed by me alone. If you want to help design levels, write character dialog, sprite enemies, draw tiles, or anything else,, please volunteer. I am ONLY interested in DEPENDABLE people who can QUICKLY churn out content. I would like to see something within a week of volunteering to prove interest.

As my appreciation for anyone who contributes, I will write a letter of recommendation for future employment, and you can use this community on a job résumé with me as a reference (phone number included). Additionally, I would like to do something for volunteers, once I am able to do so. This could be an eShop card, a T-shirt with TMJ artwork, or whatever is eventually decided.
