Sounds interesting, but you might consider showing some of your work in progress before hiring on a bunch of spriters. Most people are a bit reluctant to start churning out sprites unless they can see that what the progress is like.

Also, this was posted in the general gaming forum rather than the forum used to discuss Cave Story. I'll move it there, but in the future please post in the correct forum.

Use placeholders until the basic gameplay is done. I'm sure somebody will volunteer then.

i think thats what im going to do, as far as the game play goes, i think im dumping the topdown style and sticking to side-scrollering but with a redone aim system.

Well thats what its going to be.
Once logged into the game your edit your profile and chose your character, then chose a lobby to join, from there you can walk around chatting with other players who you can also challenge to a one on one battle, which will take place in one of many rooms the players will pick from. I very open to any idea you guys have for this game so just throw they at me!

Also What characters should be playable?

Its supposed to be online CaveStory.
And not uber-costumized-CaveStory :p
But if it would be easier to make online games with GameMaker I already would have made a online Cave Story...
