Hi! I just checked out your profile and I really liked your art. I noticed you're interested in working on a "weird/gross" project, and I think my project might interest you.

I should clarify one thing: my project is an unpaid collaboration. I understand you might not prioritize it, but perhaps you'd still be interested in participating.

My project is a visual novel inspired by Danganronpa. It includes elements of horror, suspense, and mystery, as well as some puzzles designed to challenge the player's intellect. If you're interested or would like more information, you can contact me on Discord (d2139797).

Hi 👋
The project [Project Title] is progressing very well, and we’ve reached the point where we want to expand the creative team.

This is an indie game focused on horror, tension, and mystery, with a strong atmospheric and narrative approach. We’re not aiming for cheap jump scares, but for an unsettling experience where silence, environments, music, and visual details create constant discomfort and curiosity. The tone is dark, serious, and oppressive, and the setting is a fundamental part of the game.

🔍 Who are we looking for?

Mainly:

2D background artists
People focused on 2D art for environments and locations. We want to create spaces with identity, environmental storytelling, and a sense of threat or strangeness.

An example of the game’s current art will be shown, both backgrounds and characters, so the visual style is clear from the start.

Concept artists
To develop and refine visual concepts for the world, environments, creatures, symbols, and ideas that help reinforce the game’s identity and mystery.

Musicians / composers
People interested in creating an original soundtrack, focused on ambient music, tension, unsettling atmospheres, and tracks that support key moments in the game.

Character artists (optional)
We also welcome people interested in character design, although this is not the main focus right now. Any contribution that fits the tone of the project will be appreciated.

We’re looking for committed people, with a sensitivity for horror and a desire to build a carefully crafted experience.

🤝 Important

This project is a non-paid collaboration.
There is currently no funding, so all work is done out of passion, learning, and the desire to create something solid. It’s important to be clear about this from the beginning.

In return, we offer:

• Active participation in a real project currently in development.

• Creative freedom within a clear vision.

• Full credits in the game.

• Direct communication and a serious, respectful working environment.

📩 Contact

If you’re interested in the project, you can contact me via Discord (d22139797), including:

• A short introduction.

• Examples of your work (portfolio, social media, SoundCloud, etc.).

Thanks for reading and for your interest in the project.
Fear isn’t improvised: it’s built, layer by layer.

hi! I just saw your art and I really like it, I'd like to talk to you, contact me when possible on Discord: d22139797

hi! I just saw your art and I find it quite interesting. I've sent you a friend request on Discord to get in touch. If you don't receive the request, you can contact me on Discord: d22139797

Hi! I'm a small developer with a small team of artists, and we're developing a visual novel of horror, suspense, and mystery.

The game revolves around a series of characters who are trapped in a television studio, where their journey is broadcast live to the entire world. The goal is for you to empathize with the characters and remember them long after the game ends.

I became interested in you because I think your art could be a good fit for the game. We're still a small team of artists, so a little extra help would be great.

The only catch is that this is an unpaid collaboration, meaning I can't pay you for your services. If you're still interested, want to participate, or simply want more information about the project, feel free to contact me :)

I prefer you contact me on Discord, but Instagram is fine too :)

We've gained collaborators and are making progress, but we're still looking for more team members :)

Hi!  I've been checking out your Pinterest and I really like your art style. I'm starting out as a developer and I'm working on a Danganronpa-style visual novel—horror, suspense, and mystery. I think your art could be a great fit for the game.

One important condition is that I can't pay, so it would be a collaboration only. If you're interested or want more information, let me know. My Discord is: d22139797

Hi! 

I just saw your work and wow! Your art is exactly what I'm looking for. I'm developing a visual novel that's a mix of horror, psychological thriller, and suspense. It's somewhat in the style of Danganronpa, and I'm looking for artists.

I think my project might interest you because what you enjoy doing aligns with the kind of life I want to bring to the story.

Unfortunately, it would only be a collaboration, and I wouldn't be able to pay, but the good thing is that there are no deadlines, and you'd have plenty of time to develop your art and add your own personal touch. I also offer artistic freedom when developing your characters.

If you're interested or want more information, you can contact me through Discord: "d22139797"

hola!, veo que estas buscando a gente de habla hispana para participar en algún proyecto. Para ser sinceros soy un total principiante ahora mismo, aun estoy estudiando y me quiero dedicar a la programación multiplataforma, es decir, en cualquier motor de programación. También tengo experiencia como escritor y desarrollador de historias, sobre todo en cuanto al terror psicológico, aunque siempre estoy dispuesto a otras cosas. He iniciado un proyecto por mi cuenta para ganar experiencia en el motor de rem'py, pero aun asi tengo bastante tiempo libre. Si tienes algún proyecto en mente o simplemente quieres saber de mi puedes contactarme a través de mi Discord: "d22139797"

Hi! I'm developing a visual novel in the genres you like: Horror and Psychological.

I've read that you enjoy games like Doki Doki and others, and I think my game could be perfect for you. My game is essentially similar to Danganronpa; the goal is to create a strong emotional impact on players, and I believe your art style is perfect for this.

I wouldn't be able to pay you; it would be a collaboration, but I don't have any deadlines or a heavy workload.

If you're interested in the project or want more information, let me know. You can contact me on Discord: d22139797

Hey, hi! I've seen your portfolio and I really like your art. I'm working on a horror and suspense visual novel that involves murders and emotional connections with the game's characters. I'm looking for artists, the only condition is that I can't pay. If you're still interested, please let me know. You can contact me on Discord (d22139797).

I’m developing a narrative-driven interactive project in Ren’Py, with a stylized, animation-inspired art direction. The game blends psychological tension, mystery, dark humor, and expressive characters. The visual style leans toward bold silhouettes, theatrical moods, and emotionally charged expressions rather than realism.

About the project (no spoilers): The story follows a group of strangers trapped together in a closed environment. None of them know each other, yet each of them represents the peak of human achievement: brilliant, influential, or exceptional in their field. Soon they discover that everything is being recorded and broadcast live to the entire world. The purpose of this “program” is simple and cruel: to watch these supposedly exemplary individuals break down, lose control, and turn against one another as the pressure intensifies. The world watches their descent, and the characters must decide how far they’re willing to go to survive… or to remain human.

The narrative combines paranoia, manipulation, surreal tension, and dramatic, almost theatrical scenes. If you enjoy heavy atmosphere, expressive characters, and mood-driven storytelling, you might feel right at home. Who I’m looking for:

I’m a beginner developer working on my first full project, and I’m looking for artists who want to grow alongside me. Experience is not required — if you’re new, experimenting, or learning, you’re completely welcome. What matters most is motivation and a genuine desire to create something together.

Art needs include: – Animation-style character illustrations – Expressive character sprites with multiple emotions – Stylized backgrounds that support the atmosphere – Small UI or scene assets

About the collaboration: This is an unpaid collaboration, intended for people who want to experiment, build their portfolio, or join a small but ambitious creative project.

What I offer: – Clear visual direction and references – A document with world concepts, character notes, and a style guide – Full credit in the project – A respectful, organized, and friendly environment – Creative freedom within the established aesthetic – Patience and openness, since I’m learning and building the project step by step

For creative protection, detailed plot elements are shared privately with collaborators.

If you’re interested or want more information, feel free to message me on itch.io or leave your Discord contact.

wow, this is a good concept, I love Danganronpa and I also want to make my own game based on it. It's great to see I'm not the only developer with that idea, and I really like the art style of this game; it's quite cool.
