Hello! I’m currently starting a hobby project for a dark, soft, dreamy fantasy dating sim — similar in spirit to The Arcana. The game is being developed in Unity, and is still in its early conceptual phase. Right now, I’m looking to build a small, collaborative team of volunteers to help bring it to life!

:crescent_moon: About the Game

The game blends customizable choicesromance routes, and stat-building mechanics in a moody fantasy setting. It will feature:

  • dreamy, dark aesthetic with soft visuals and emotional storytelling
  • Six unique love interests, each with their own storylines, arcs, and endings
  • daily horoscope system that influences gameplay and dialogue
  • Custom name and pronoun options for inclusive player identity
  • Both reading-based progression and interactive choices with consequences
  • Good and bad endings tied to player stats and decisions

:handshake: What I’m Looking For

This is an unpaid hobby project for now — perfect for those wanting to build a portfolio and collaborate on something heartfelt and creative. I’m currently seeking:

  • Community Manager / Marketing - Helps build hype, manage social media or a Discord server, gather player feedback from demos or betas, and promote the game.
  • UI/UX Designer - Dating sims rely heavily on menus, dialogue boxes, choice interfaces, and stats screens — a clean, intuitive UI/UX is vital for player immersion and ease of play.

Experience with visual novels or dating sims is a plus, but not required. Enthusiasm, good communication, and a gentle creative spirit are more important.

If this sounds like something you'd love to be part of, please apply via this form: Application

I'll be reviewing responses and reaching out via email or Discord. Let's build something magical together.

Thanks for reading!

I’m a UI designer specializing in visual novels and narrative-driven games. With experience working on commercial VNs like The Sun Shines Upon Us, Astral Ascension, and several VN jam projects (Edda Cafe, Starship Breakers, 21 Questions, Intensive (S)care Unit, This Magical Girl is a B☆tch, Seascape Paradise), I’m confident in creating immersive and aesthetic interfaces that enhance your game’s storytelling.

I'd like to contribute, but at the moment, I’m only able to commit to paid work, so I wouldn’t be able to join in a volunteer capacity. That said, if you secure funding or move forward with a budget for UI/UX design, I’d be glad to revisit the possibility of working together.

Please feel free to reach out down the line, I’d be happy to keep in touch and see where your projects evolve.
