Hi leeuskun. Wlecome to the forums.
The best way to start a project like this is a to start small. Your question can be interpretted as "can you show me how to build a chat app from scratch", and to answer that could take all day.
Like I said, start small and work on each function on its own.
By this I mean get the bare bones of a basic chat set up first.
These two links are valuable in learing to create, build and run projects in Eclipse:
Creating:Creating an Android Project | Android Developers
Building and Running:Building and Running from Eclipse with ADT | Android Developers
Once you've set up a basic "bare bones" project you can add to it and modify the code where necessary. For a chat application you're going to need a server for all the clients to share that point of contact. Google services can provide this (I think), or you could set up your own on a server elsewhere (as I did with my Shooting Watch project).
Once the basic chat is set up then work on the rest - invites, admin privileges etc.
You have to be creative on what you want the app to do and work towards a plan.
I hope this answer gives you a start to work on.
All the best.
