Hey guys. I'm interested in working on the game. No joke. I've been wanting to see this through. ITE is the entire reason I became an artist and an animator in the first place. I grew up with it and want to a see a sequel completed. I'd be honored to be a part of it. But, don't bother asking me to do work on it if you don't plan on finishing it. If I commit to something, I intend to see it through. Let's get this thing in production!

I excel in storyboards, 2D animation, concept art, you name it. I have a vision for a sequel, but only shreds of the story.

Contact from me personally from there, because I hardly ever visit these forums anymore.

Yes, including myself in Fallen's statement.

Well yea if you look around a bit you can see that they are trying to make one, or at least planning it right now. I don't understand, however, why no one gets back to me about it once I post, so....I dunno. Maybe it will be all through email now or somethin.

I just want everyone to realize that if it is going to be around Inherit the Earth at all, you need toi consider that in the first game, at the end the Orb says "dry period has been set in motion" or something and it doesn't receive an "end-date" for it, so obviously, going in alignment to the game, the setting would be that a drought is happening and water is becoming less abundant everyday.  

Just felt like I need to remind everyone that.

And....I still want to be one of the concept artists possibly. I'd do more landscaping/technology that is involved in the game rather than the sprites and characters. Like more of the backgrounds and how the world would be set up. And I just want to do this because I like the game. Nothing of money would be even somewhat considered.

Oh and one last thing. Just so everyone gets everyone's input. I'd like the game to stay the nice old fashioned 2d design. I just can't see inherit the earth in 3d unless it has as good of graphics and dynamic lighting as the game Fable or the new Final Fantasy game for PS3. Haha, thats just my take. When I first played the game when I was about 6 years old, I was playing it off and on, and I could not get through the game. It took me over 3 years to beat it on my own. During that time, I played it trying to figure out puzzles and stuff. An example would be I just got stuck in the dungeon in Prince's castle. It literally took me like 3 days to open the rock. So with that kind of progression, trying out every angle everything over and over and over at a slow pace, I remember the game as a long, surreal, imaginative, adventure for the mind(partly due to the soothing music in corelation to the pixel-graphics). I honsetly don't think you can achieve that kind of pleasure/fun of Inherit the Earth 2 if it were to be 3D graphics like that of the "Cubes" link shown above. Just my opinion though.  

I just want to ask that if you need concept artists for work, I am volunteering. I don't really have a portfolio to show you, but I have a website with some of my stuff that I did about 2 years ago, and I have only improved:

Just click on the Deviation Gallery and what not to see all that I have submitted.

Just to put it out there. I think it would be fun to do, and wouldn't ask for any money made off of the game when it is created and sold.  

Well in the new game I hope we can visit the fox tribe and maybe see Rif's family or something (if he has any)....

Oh and I honestly think that they shoud have gone and tried to recover the Orb....    

I think that maybe the questions not answered at the end will be answered in Inherit the Earth 2, or possibly the comics.
