Okay, I'm having a difficult time attracting and retaining developers to my project.
I've gotten a few people interested in working on it, but then I think people don't really have the skill level to be of any help, or I never hear back from them. Being a programmer/artist etc, I'm really an introverted person, and I feel like I am stepping into other people's personal space whenever I ask them if they might be interested in working on it.
The other part of this Is I know a little bit of programming myself, but it seems like it is not enough to fix the major bugs in the code myself. I can draw okay, but with the amount of artwork needed, i could probably use artists as well. I've been told everything from why don't you quit working on it, to go back to windows. It is a fork of another (not very good game-play wise) project.
For your information, since the project is a fork, it does compile and run, and has significant changes already to the code base and artwork. With a lot of missing art tile, and a bad user interface it defiantly needs work though. I don't really feel comfortable making a release of it, but I have been also been tempted to do so in order to attract more talent.
