I'm entering the Get Something Done contest. One of the rules is to announce it, so I'm copying this from Iains blog:

I'm starting a new project. It's going to be retro and I'm trying to decide whether it will be an action game or more RP-oriented building game. Either way, I want there to be some sort of feature that allows the players to express creativity.

My game is incomplete on June 1st unless there is at least 1 detailed map, stage, level, or whatever I decide to call it, some sort of combat system, and some sort of AI ( I.E. monsters ). The game will also need to be down loadable, have a custom interface, a help file, and ( the most toughest thing of all ) a name.

One neat thing I plan to do with this game is deviate from the norm a little bit. I'm tired of classes honestly - knight, wizard, ranger... it's all going out the window with this project. I will also try to have generated maps, but since I don't know how to do this yet, I won't make it a requirement for the game to be complete.

Keep in mind this is a new project, I have not started on it, just coming up with all the ideas right now. I should at least have an idea of what I will want the characters to look like by tonight.
do you need some help

I'm not sure if you're allowed to help.
Wasn't Artemis, made by Iain Peregrine himself during the last GSD, a collaboration project? He had a couple of other hands working on it, IIRC.

I have no idea what Artemis is.
These are the results for GSD 2010. The fourth entry:

"Artemis (a library), by IainPeregrine, DivineTraveller, and Tekken"

I think you can work together.

Ok, I'll think of something.
