Hi,
So about a year back I was inspired to try to make a game. A year later I have nothing more than a 30k word/170 passage Twine project, much more of an adult CYOA than a game, really. So, I'm here for help. First, if you're an illustrator with some spare time that might like to talk about creating/incorporating illustrations in this free project, pm me and we can see if we dig one another's styles. If you're a game-maker (or a potential game-maker) who can give me advice on how to turn this TWINE project into something better (Twine is rudimentary and easy, that's why I picked it, I guess - is it inherently bad?) I'd be grateful.
Until that happens, though, what is the easiest illustrating program out there? I realize there are a million different styles - I'm looking for something that's easy to ease into - at least until I find an illustrator to gel with. I've tried to start on a couple of illustrating programs, but within a half hour it all made my head spin. I have a pretty top-line computer, but I really don't want to spend money on a program until I find out if I have the potential of being any good (or at least passable). Anyhow, if you're interested in any of this, or can offer advice, please pm.
Thanks for your consideration,
MM
