They both will need to be programmed differently. Basically I would start with one and then work to the other.

Would someone be able to create most of the graphics for free?
Good Quality non-copywritted material is the most difficult

We have a lot of good photoshop wizards in the subreddit, can you make a request for the kind of thing you would need from the thread I've created? There's also other programers who have offered their services as well. If there's some way to split up the work so not one person is forced to do everything and more people can have a share of the bounty, that may be better to save on time as well.

Who can make it so that you can actually earn coins? Like from a faucet where people can donate? I will personally keep donating towards it from the proceeds of nyanmine Smiley

Which OS is it to be first programmed on? Windows? Android?

These are some things that we can decide as a community. Is one easier to make than another? Personally, I think Android has more viral potential.
I'm thinking web based + android?
Kinda like the way flappydoge is.

Web based + android would likely have the most reach. It doens't have to be flappy bird either, we can get a snake type game or a robot unicorn type game as people in the subreddit have suggested. All of those games aren't too complex, but fit well with the nyancat theme.

The devs have responded to my PMs! I have convinced them to take some of their time away from programming to respond to the community more frequently!

Additionally, I have gotten their green light on making a game happen for Nyancoin! If you have any ideas for how the game should be, please don't hesitate to make a contribution. This will be a community effort!

Also, please see my post here in the subreddit:

http://www.reddit.com/r/nyancoins/comments/1z252m/lets_make_a_game_for_nyancoin_10000_nyan_bounty/

Lets come together and make something amazing!

There will be a 10,000 NYAN bounty for the nekonaut who finally volunteers to program it after the community has hashed out all the ideas. Cheesy

He can have it when he wants too. Until then were just making everyone money by making it more profitable and interesting Smiley

I did not mean take control physically but emotionally.
Like pretend we control it in the way that we all feel like we own it, are a part of it and do our parts to promote it, such as an owner would.
Not just be a member and watch.

I agree. But I want to do it in a way that does not seem like it's hijacking the coin away from the dev. I will wait some time for him to respond to my PMs. It's better if we all work together on this and since I'm offering my services for free, I don't see why the dev would say no. Hopefully he will agree to have a more direct channel of communication.

The dev should have more communication with people.

As requested.  This is how I picture Nekonauts enjoying the gravity well (compiled from borrowed images).

Maybe you could temporarily take control of the forum and advertise the hell out of the coin?
Put a donation link to yourself then use all that money you get from across the world wide web to advertise.
Legally the only thing stopping you is saying you created any content that contains Nyan Cat.
Even if you make a Nyan Cat related picture or anything, if your not directly making money off it then you should be fine.
There really isn't too much stopping us. Just no one really promoting us.

Also I am a programmer, remember? :p I got two games on the xbox360 Smiley
Games would need licensing though, the owner of Nyan Cat would like a profit probably.

See? That's exactly what I mean. You are not the only programmer who has expressed interest in making stuff like this. However, the bottleneck is the fact that only the dev is in contact with Chris. The only times Chris showed up on our subreddit was during the time that we donated to the girl's softball team and to give us an update on shipping out the products that were purchased. There just isn't a good level of communication among all the parties.

We can't just randomly take control of this forum. It's controlled by whoever owns the nyan-coin account (which is the dev). The size of our subreddit proves we have no problems promoting the coin. The problem we have is retaining interest. No matter how much I convince people to come check us out, it ultimately means little if they stay for 5-10 minutes, leave, then never come back. We need something substantial to continue the excitement, and for that we need the dev to talk to us about what's going on behind the scenes.

Having the existing games take the coin is not necessarily something that was discussed. What was suggested was new games that pay out points in NYAN. A lot of the nyan games have nothing to do with Chris. The fact is, a lot of people tested out the store and did get their shipments of products which they purchased with NYAN, that much is true, so it isn't a scam. However, there must be a reason Chris is hesitant about promoting the coin very publically and it must be something he has discussed with the dev.

Well, it could be handy enough to promote with what we've got atm. I don't know if you have noticed the existence of corgicoin, but they already have a corgi+flappy game and it's actually linked to a faucet. These things could go viral if someone puts them in Android. I'm absolutely sure a nyan+flappy+faucet game will quickly drive some attention here.

I have a huge tip for anyone who can create such a game, I am not a programmer so I can't myself Sad

That is what my fear is. Something isn't right.
I just hope all the profits from the Nyan Store and the pre-mine go right back into Nyan Coin and the people promoting it.
Maybe soon things will get on a roll. This better not be a scam...
People will believe what they want to believe.  Sad

How many Nyan Coins does the creator of Nyan Cat have?
I thought that all Nyan Cat games are working on making this coin currency in those games...

What I ment by the store is that I hope the profits from Nyan Coin go back into advertising and promoting Nyan Coin.

You are spending tons of money on the promoting, advertising and tips yourself.
Your quality should be a paid position haha

Well I do want the coin to succeed a lot. I have enough of the coin that I'm happy to contribute free of cost. With a little bit of information from the dev I have some idea of how to turn this around. The thing is my hands are tied without clear communication from the dev about his own priorities, what projects he's pursuing and what his communication with Chris is. While the licensing thing is great, it's really serving to hold a lot of the community back since we're all just confused about where we're headed. This doesn't have to happen, it costs nothing to communicate things clearly.
