Hi everyone.
My name is Dastan, and I'm a game designer/developer with a deep love for board games and tabletop RPGs. My main experience have been in system/mechanic design and I’ve also DMed custom D&D campaigns. Over the years I've gathered great experiences and skills in creating immersive content—world lore, quests, level, and maps tailored to different audiences.
Right now, I'm reaching out here not just to offer my services, but also because of a difficult personal situation.
Why now?
I’m originally from Iran, though I currently live in Turkey. Due to the recent escalation in the region, my primary source of income—work with a client based in Iran—has been cut off indefinitely. Like many others in my position, platforms such as Fiverr and PayPal are unavailable to me due to sanctions and payment restrictions. So I’m turning to this community, hoping to connect directly with fellow creators who might need help with their projects; whether for board games or video games.
What I Can Help You With:
- Custom content for TTRPGs (backstories, settings, NPCs, Encounters, etc.),
- Map Design for TTRPGs (towns, dungeons, regions – tailored to your world and needs)
- Brainstorming, play testing, and/or consulting for Board Games,
- Mechanic oriented game design for game projects (board games or video games),
- Creating game design documentations (GDD) based on existing data,
- Level Design using existing and stablished mechanics and requirements,
- Low Poly 3D modeling (Blender, Hard Surface),
Payment Details
Unfortunately, I can’t receive payments via PayPal or Stripe. The only available method for me right now is international bank transfer via IBAN/SWIFT. I understand this may not be ideal for everyone, but if you're able and willing to work with that, you’d be helping me get through a very challenging time.
If you’re interested or just want to chat about possibilities, feel free to leave a comment. I’m happy to show examples of my previous work or even start with a small sample task.
Thank you so much for reading. And thank you for supporting creators like me trying to keep going against the odds.
May The Dice Be Forever In Your Favor,
Dastan
