Attention all programmers! Progress on Megalonia has been stalled for a while, so I'm looking for someone willing to finish a SHMUP. If anyone is interested (and are sure they have time!) then message me.

I'd like to throw in my hat for Evil Empire, IF using game creation programs is allowed. I'd like to use Sim RPG Maker 95 to create a Fire Emblem clone with it.

I'm pretty sure game creation programs are allowed, as a majority of the games are made in Game Maker and MMF2. EDITI just looked at Evil Empire, and it appears to be a platformer. I don't know if you are allowed to altogether change a game genre, especially since platformer and Sim RPG are very different genres.

Having to drop the Project I was working on due to some serious computer problems; the source-code got corrupted in a forced Windows Update. ._.
Is this still going down? What projects are still open? Anything that -Isn't- a SHMUP?

They shouldn't be shmups. Admittedly our game was turned into a shmup from an arena shooter, so it's not a good example. But the whole ideas is finding whatever could be good in the original and bringing it out into something unique and playable.
And come on guys, Cheetahmen. No one has done Cheetahmen.

Cheetahmen is pretty intimidating, and I understand beat em'ups are challenging to build.
Action 52 games I'd have liked to have seen remade.
Manchester Beat - This'd probably take too much ambition for anyone to attempt.
Cry Baby - This is the only Action 52 game that had a mechanic that interested me. Climbing on furniture is kind of neat.
Dam Busters - At first I thought this game was about Sumo wrestlers that shot balls out of their bellies. Admittedly I'm not as interested now that I now it's about beavers or something.

Who's working on Slashers? It says Cosmic Fool on the old sign up sheet but I don't know if that's relevant.
@unsilentwill - Storm Over the Desert was awesome.

Me and Cfool, although it's been a bit long in production.

I always imagined Improved Dam Busters as being basically Pocky and Rocky. It'd be pretty fun to make. If no one else does it I will try.
Lollipops is my favorite Action 52 game ever; I've always seen it as being an incredibly morose and gloomy game despite its cheery-sounding plot. Completely by accident, of course, but the fact remains that the black backgrounds, completely abstract graphics, and insane sound programming give it a lot of character.
edit: Alistair hasn't been on this site since halfway through past year. I am unofficially claiming Dam Busters, but I'll step down if he comes back in (and just re-asset anything I've already built up and continue working, I've wanted to make a P&R thing for a long time).

Lolipop is taken by Jtreiner( http://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?action=profile;u=47321), I don't know if he is still going to do it, but since we are friends in actual life I will ask him. If you don't believe that he signed up for it for some reason check out this website: http://www.superfundungeonrun.com/action52/index.php

King Hades made that list include games that haven't had any apparent progress in a long time. Dam Busters is taken too, as are a bunch of the other ones, they just got (seemingly) dropped or delayed to a point where someone else might be able to do something with them. I hope Jtreiner finishes it, though, because I love that game and his rendition was looking classy.

Crazy Shuffle it is. I shall have this done post-haste!
BTW, does anyone know where we can read the write up "stories" for each of the games? I deviated with Meong, but want to stick a bit closer to the source this time around.

Crazy Shuffle is a Card Matching game?
HUUUUH.
Well wow, it's nice to see how focused the original developers were, it's certainly not a card matching game at all! Well, setting about to work on this, nearly got the basis of the engine done.
