Hi everyone,
Context
I finished a arcade, puzzle game a while back and released to itch Complete the Square.
While I like playing the game, it has a few bugs and I feel like it’s missing something. Here’s the post mortem where I dumped my TODO.md list of bugs / future features, after deciding to spot working on it.
I am now however, wanting to make this puzzle game way better, and am looking for people who are interested in the project who want to work on it together. Here are the things I am namely looking for:
- Sprite Work - the game needs better animations and better sprites. I made all of these myself, but would really love someone who can help me make more animations and better sprites.
- Better Mechanics - I like the game but I feel like it’s missing something. Maybe better RNG, maybe different mechanics that get introduced later as the waves increase. You can look at the post mortem for some ideas, but I’m very open to finding someone to collaborate on this.
Motivation and Collaboration
- I view this as a collaboration. I will be coding (JS) alongside, writing music, fixing bugs, and being involved in the brainstorming/ideation process.
- The long term vision is to (one day) build a bigger indie game with friends/cool peeps cause … it’s fun and rewarding to build meaningful projects with good people.
- It would be sick to release a game (not necessarily this one) to Steam as well.
Compensation (Paid/Unpaid)
I am open to both models. Ideally I am trying to play the long game and find good people to work with, but also if y’all are more into a small work engagement (eg. “make 2-3 16x16px level tiles for the game”), then I am open to chatting about a fair structure/price.
Looking forward to hearing back from anyone who resonates with this project!! ✨
