Crazy Idea: Let's start up a group project!

So I was thinking about making a group project again, and then I thought "oh hey, we have this thread I made a while back, don't we".

I notice we have a few ideas, like the murder mystery one, but nothing concrete's come out of it.

So I'm going to toss out some more concrete ideas.

1) Group adventure or comic-like thing.

Basically, this would be "a bunch of people come up with a story together" (something we already do quite a bit of) and "a bunch of people illustrate the story". People could do music if they were so inclined too, as well as anything else.

I think we'd all need to agree on a basic story, and on the overall organization of things. (for example, do we have one main writer who consults with other people to make sure the story's polished? Multiple writers with some organized way of settling disputes if they arise?) Could be fun if people are up for it, though; I'd certainly be interested in writing for such a thing myself.

2) Group-designed game

Basically the same as the above, only a video game. This does have some key differences, notably that we'd need programmers and pixel art (though non-pixel concept art wouldn't hurt.)

As an alternative, we could maybe plan out a game in some level of detail, something just a tiny bit more structured than #mspafaQuest was. What I mean by that is, we'd actually accept and reject ideas, but not worry about making an actual game out of it. Just do some writing and some concept art, maybe plan out puzzles and dungeons or whatever we're doing with it. We wouldn't have a lot to show for it in the end, but it might be fun to just come up with stuff and not worry too much about the details collecting it all into a playable product.

I guess those are the main things I can think of. Any interest in those? Or other general ideas along those lines?
