Hi all,
I've been working steadily on a narrative JRPG in a modern setting for the past year with a graphic artist, who joined in the last half year. Unfortunately, he decided to part away from the project due to personal reasons, so I'm looking for his replacement(s).
The project
The game is about 2 young kids, who overhear their mother being told that they will be losing their beloved family home due to another building being built in its place. In order for that not to happen, they decide to take matter into their own hands and train with the surrounding animal factions (frogs/rats/etc) to defeat the evil business man and the mayor.
While the game is wholesome in general, it touches deeper subjects such as loss, family issues, poverty and greed.
Who I'm looking for
I'm mainly looking for a graphic artist/2D artist and a 3D artist who I can partner up with and can work part-time (or full time, but that's not a necessity) on the project, so together we can make this game a reality.
The qualities I'm looking for in the person(s)
- Dedicated
- Creative
- Studied art/modelling (preferably at Uni)
- Consistent work ethics
- Willing to experiment/prototype in short iterations to achieve the most fun outcome
- Knows and/or grew up in an Eastern European setting
- Okay with political incorrectness
- Good at following a vision, but can also self-manage themselves to certain level
- English level spoken at intermediate or higher level
Graphic artist/2D Artist Job description
- Drawing concept art
- Illustrating characters
- Animating characters
- Designing UI
- Helping in world and level design
3D artist Job description
- Prototyping levels and iterating on them
- Modelling world objects – mostly urban setting, both interior and exterior (Low poly, semi-low poly models)
- World and level design
About myself
I'm a Hungarian Software Engineer/Tech Lead (mostly for web applications) with around 8 years of professional experience. I'm also a hobby game developer who would ultimately like to open a game studio to publish his first full game.
I recently became a father of a lovely girl, so although my time is limited, my dedication is not and I've been pouring whatever free time I have to this project.
What the project currently has
The project is still in early pre-production, so many things will be experimented
- A short playable prototype of the first scene
- Event System, which allows the creation of complex scenes
- Battle System core elements
- Concept arts for the main (5) characters
- Detailed character sheets for the main characters
- Synopsis
- First 4 scenes written of the Chapter 1
What I offer
- Opportunity to learn together the processes of game development
- Although my main expertise is not game development, I'll pass on knowledge of general software and product development, along with ideologies, principles and processes
- A vision to follow in the form of a game
- Plans, roadmap and projections for the development and sales
- Equity of the company that will sell the game and therefor revenue from it – percentage is subject to role(s) and discussion
- If possible investments were to happen – for which I have contacts to – there could also be a sweat salary during development, but not until then
Final notes
This is a more of a passion project, that with the proper team can be made a reality. Although I'm looking for passionate and dedicated teammates, it's not required to work on the project full time – as I'm also unable to guarantee you that.
