Hello everyone, 2S here!

About Myself...

Some of you may already know me primarily as a game developer and backend engineer. My skills, however, go beyond that since I consider myself to be a fairly skilled writer.

I have been writing stuff since I was a little kid, and I'm no stranger when it comes to writing a wall of text. For example, a few years ago I rewrote almost the entirety of the Bible to create a version that fits the lore of my game projects, and currently I'm writing books about languages, sciences, and fantasy worlds.

One of the books I started to write a few years ago is called "Master Theorem of Magic" (or MTM for short), and it is a 120k words book that aims to standardize magic systems through a unified model using the scientific approach and logical reasoning.

My writing skills are wide and encompass a lot of fields, from scientific writing, to POV, or even custom styles. I have an uncanny ability to imagine myself as a specific character or in a specific world and write according to how I feel.

About My Availability...

Because my hands are already filled with coding and game design stuff, I would like to collaborate on other projects as a writer and/or worldbuilder during my spare time. I usually have two to three hours after dinner that I can solely dedicate to writing stuff.

I can write dialogues, backstories, and narrative pieces, as well as creating cultures, species, languages, and other worldbuilding aspects.

I don't have restrictions when it comes to accepting projects to join in (besides liking them, of course). I'm willing to try anything, from wholesome SFW to the most depraved NSFW stuff. I just want to work with someone on something.

As mentioned before, I'm in the EU and have a lot of projects going on. So, I won't be active every day. However, whatever little free time I have, I would love to help some teams out.

About Payment...

To be honest, I'm not specifically looking to be paid. Still, it would be highly appreciated to get something back beside credits and stuff. Options such as RevShare, Flat Rate, or whatever can be discussed. If your game project is for a game jam or non-profit, I have no problems working as a volunteer.

Regardless, I'd like to work with competent teams and/or promising game developers. If you lack clear vision or can't manage tasks correctly, I'm not the person for you.

And, while I can get over the use of AI with the purpose of prototyping or expressing your vision to me, I won't participate in game projects when AI is featured in the final product.

Thanks for listening. If interested, reply here or add me on Discord:

dignoranza

P.S.

I also do localization/translation between English, Italian, and my own constructed languages such as Gleixic or Vessent.

Hello, nice to meet you!

Few months ago I made a partial game for a game jam inspired by the old Atari game called Asteroids. Since it was for a game jam, it will be completely free and non commercial.

We have all the assets (from graphics to music). If you want to put your hands on it, contact me through Discord:

dignoranza

If you want, I have a creature collector game you can join. If interested, you can contact me on my Discord:

Hello everyone,

About the game...

I'm making a creature collector, RP game with a complex battle system tailored for veteran players. Just imagine a mixture of POKÉMON and Deltarune but with the difficulty of a souls-like game.

I have an upcoming test release scheduled by the end of the month and, while coding is ahead of schedule, there are still few things that are needed to be done for them to be included in the release, one of which being backgrounds and background assets.

I'm making this post because, I cannot find anyone, I have no other choice but to pull out the good ol' Paint, and hope for the best.

What I'm looking for...

I'm looking for 2D background artists who can make both landscapes/scenery and in-doors. While it would be better if they could also do some form of animation such as waterfalls or similar, it is not a strict requirement. Similarly, because backgrounds are NOT pixel art, we prefer digital artists. Still, even pixel artists are welcomed to help.

Despite having searched far and wide for quite a bit (like a month or two), I only found artists who (I) ghost me after a while, (II) straight up leave without telling me anything, (III) or think they are the best thing in the world and as soon as I ask them to fix few details they start a rant about how I don't deserve them or something. So, please, don't be one of them. I already have a lot to worry about.

About payment...

As of now, this is NOT a paid position. I can only accept volunteer or RevShare.

Because I could not find any background artist, I decided to allocate the funding to the rest of the project to move it forward. However, after the test release, we can make an agreement that satisfy both of us.

I'm already working hard to get this thing out. I appreciate any help I can get. This also includes new artists who would like to start with making backgrounds. I promise that, no matter how bad you may think it is, it is always better than anything I can make.

Final notes:

Backgrounds are really complex, both in visual and handling. So, we will tackle this complexity slowly, with time, and step-by-step. For now, however, I just need something quick so that I can see if it works as I expected. Beside, we can always improve them later if needed.

If interested, feel free to contact me in Discord:

dignoranza

Thanks for reading!

P. S.:

I forgot to mention that, beside being put in the credits, people who helped with the game's development are featured in the game itself as NPCs. These can be interacted with, have sub quests and/or events, and even have custom battle if requested. Consider this as a way for me to thank you for your efforts.

We are working on a POKÉMON-like game. Would you be interested in making new critter/NPC designs?

If you are, here's my Discord:

If it is something easy to do like cookie clickers usually are, I'm up for it. Here's my Discord:

Hello, nice to meet you!

We have a large scale game that could benefit from a Japanese localization, especially since the game's native language shares a lot with Japanese.

If you want to collaborate on this, contact us through our Discord:

I'm looking for a co-programmer for a 2D NSFW monster collector RP game. The game is coded in the Go programming language (for now) using a custom game engine developed by me using SDL2 as a backend.

The game project features a lot of independent parts we refer to as modules. Because I filled with many other tasks, I need a programmer who can take the existing code and add features on top. Ideally, they should be able to handle low-level stuff since, in some cases, they might need to deal with individual bits.

So, if you are looking for:

• Projects to further your portfolio.
• Ways to test and/or refine your skills with complex projects.
• Ways to learn something new and need projects to try.
• Ways to help without excessive compensation.

And don't mind +18 content, let me know! Any help is welcome.

It has been a chaotic month for me (new people in, old people out, personal life, and stuff). Because of that, and my limited funds, I may not be able at all for programming duties and so, it will be RevShare. Once things have settled down, however, I'm able to give you a bit of payment to match your efforts. Still, for now, I just need someone to make everything necessary for the MVP and first test release.

If anything here has piqued your interest, feel free to contact me through my Discord:

dignoranza

Finally, if you enjoy working with me, you can become a permanent member of the team for future projects.

Have fun, and I wish you have a fantastic day.

Hello, we are making a game with an extensive story and many characters. It is an RPG game, if you want to discuss further, let me know. This is my Discord:

I'm looking for a sound designer and music producer for a NSFW monster collector RP game. The game's sound style is high-energy, melodic, and dubstep.

Because the project features complex scenarios, I'm searching for a dedicated sound designer who, not only makes the various background music that are needed for the game, but also helps making the battle sound effects and POKÉMON cries.

If you are looking for:

• Projects to further your portfolio.
• Ways to test and/or refine your skills with complex projects.
• Ways to learn something new and need projects to try.
• Ways to help without excessive compensation.

And don't mind +18 content, let me know! Any help is welcome.

It has been a chaotic month for me (new people in, old people out, personal life, and stuff). Because of that, and my limited funds, I may not be able to pay a lot right away. Still, once things have settled down, I'm able to raise payment to match your efforts. I just need someone to make everything necessary for the MVP and first test release.

Payments are done through PayPal. Those who stick around 'till the game release will have access to RevShare as well.

I'm looking for a tileset (pixel) artist for a NSFW monster collector RP game. The game's art style is similar to POKÉMON: Black & White.

Because the project features a huge map, I'm searching for a dedicated artist who, not only makes the various tiles that are needed for the game, but also helps design the various towns, interiors, and routes.

Still, to reduce your workload, I shall handle building the actual map using our custom format. The API is a .txt file that the map viewer can decode to show the triggers and map layers.

If you are looking for:

• Projects to further your portfolio.
• Ways to test and/or refine your skills with complex projects.
• Ways to learn something new and need projects to try.

Yes, we are still looking. Add me on Discord: dignoranza

yes, you can add me on Discord: dignoranza

bump. I decided to make this also paid instead of just RevShare.

I mean... that's obvious. But I can do everything at once, I need a bit of help :)

As the title says, we're looking for map designers for our major project. You can find me more information here:

https://redship-games.itch.io/vexel-land-of-southern-lights

I'll keep it brief:

The game is called Land of Southern Lights (or LOSL for short) and it is a monster collector, turn-based RP game with two major target audiences:

• Casual players who just want to sit back and enjoy the content (safe and non) at their own pace.
• Veteran fans of POKÉMON who want something challenging.

This game is challenging and features a complex narrative with interesting game mechanics.

Because it is a long-term project (i.e., deadline measured in years instead of months), we hope to create a new IP called the VEXEL series. It will also feature DLCs and other extra content.

The map is pixel-based and features tilesets.

What are we searching for?

The problem is that the map is huge. So, we appreciate any help we can get.

We have drawn the basic structure of the game map on Aseprite and it is a 1:1 representation, meaning that a single pixel on the image represents a single tile.

So, for now, we need someone who is able to take our ~3000 x ~3000 pixel image and fixes the details. These include, but not limited to:

• Make the design of all the cities and towns.
• Make the path and routes more interesting.
• Terraforming and add elevation.
• Add new towns, forests, caves, and other points of interests.

Once the map overview is done, we can proceed to find a tile artist to make all the necessary tiles.

What about the payment?

As of now, we have a limited funds so we are searching for artists who are okay with RevShare or monthly pay options. As a small indie game studio, funding is limited; but, it can be extended to years if needed. The exact percentage can be discussed.

Final notes

Payment is done through PayPal. So, don't request any payment option if you don't have it. If anything here has piqued your interest, feel free to contact our main developer through his Discord:

dignoranza

Lastly, if you enjoy working with us, you can become a permanent member of the team for future projects.

Have fun, and we wish you have a fantastic day.

I have to agree with JaffaSix. I have a game that is really close to completion (one or two months). May I ask what guarantees are provided?

Instead of using a sketchy external contract system, it would be better if you gave your support through their platforms. "Pass me your donation pages" sounds less sketchy than "Give me your game so I can fund you."

We do have a Patreon that you could join if you want to support us, there is no need to use external contract systems. And it is way more reliable and the result os the same. When you join the Discord community we have, you can state your demands.

Bump, still searching

Hi, we'd like to have you. We use a custom game engine, if this interests you, contact our main developer through their Discord:

Bump. Still searching

Good evening,

We are working on a game engine built with the Go programming language. If you want to help with the physics engine or other systems, let us know.

Hello, nice to meet you!

We are working on  a NSFW game and we need a writer, if you are up, contact our main developer at their Discord:

dignoranza

As the title says, we are looking for 2D pixel artists for our major project.

WARNING: The game contains NSFW content. Still, it does not feature gore, non-con, and anything illegal under EU laws.

We noticed that it is quite a challenge to find artists here who are comfortable with +18 content so... feel free to contact us if you feel like it.

About the game:

The game is called Land of Southern Lights (or LOSL for short) and it is a monster collector, turn-based RP game with two major target audiences:

• Casual players who just want to sit back and enjoy the content (safe and non) at their own pace.
• Veteran fans of POKÉMON who want something challenging.

This game is challenging and features a complex narrative with interesting game mechanics. Here are some of them:

• Tons of new critters referred to as VEXELs.
• A huge map filled with POI and things to do.
• A complex narrative that changes depending on the player's actions.
• A completely new typing system, new moves, and a battle system tailored for people who like challenges.
• Level of difficulty specifically tailored to please long-term POKÉMON fans who are now veterans and would love to have another challenging game.
• +18 scenes and interactions.

Because it is a long-term project (i.e., deadline measured in years instead of months), we hope to create a new IP called the VEXEL series. This long deadline allows us to ensure that:

1. Everything works as it should and as advertised.
2. The game looks and feels good to play.
3. The game is fun to play and has infinite replayability.

It will also feature DLCs and other extra content.

Screenshots of the game:

Virex (flora / charge):

What are we searching for?

As of now, we are searching for 2D pixel artists and 2D pixel animators who are comfortable at drawing at least one of the following things:

• Overworld elements: town layouts, tilesets, overworld animations, etc.
• UI elements: battle sprites, effects, items, text, etc.
• PR materials: posters, artworks, promotional material, cover art, etc.

And, of course, comfortable at making +18 content. This does not mean you need to know how to make all of that yourself, but if your range of interests falls under one of the aforementioned roles, then we are happy to have you on-board.

So, if you are looking for:

• Projects to further your portfolio.
• Ways to test and/or refine your skills with complex projects.
• Ways to learn something new and need projects to try.
• Ways to help without excessive compensation.

And don't mind +18 content, let us know! Any help is welcome.

What about the payment?

As of now, we have a limited funds so we are searching for artists who are okay with RevShare options. The exact percentage can be discussed in private. Still, for jobs well done, we might require increase in work under other payment options.

Final notes

Payment is done through PayPal. So, don't request any payment option if you don't have it. If anything here has piqued your interest, feel free to contact our main developer through his Discord:

Hello everyone, RSG here!

We are currently working on a model/animation system called SF: MAT (Stream Force: Model - Animation - Texture) for our videogame engine.

About MAT:

There are many software out there that one can use for making models, animations, and texture, and, as such, there is a big discrepancy between different tools and formats.

So, we decided to create a unified toolchain (and format) that achieves the following objectives:

1. Handling the processes of making models, animations, and texture within a shared system and/or environment.
2. Making the development of models, animations, and textures easier for both artists and creative alike.
3. Working for both 2D and 3D games.
4. Features interoperability with the software in the market. These includes, but not limited to, Blender, Cinema 4D, Aseprite, Flash (discontinued), and Unity/UE.

To make a software like this possible, we need help from all artists, from pixel and digital artists, animators, and 3D modelers. So, if you wish to help, let us know!

About the System:

The core system is neither a game nor a software. Instead, it is a library that is available under open-source license as a free-ware. However, because we want to create software that can be used to create models and animations (e.g., editors and viewers), it is possible to sell those for RevShare.

So, if you want to help us to make this system, contact our main developer at their Discord:

dignoranza

Not only is any help appreciated, but this toolchain might make your life easier when creating models, animations, and textures for future projects. However, because this system is universal, some help might involve with NSFW images or models. If you don't want to work with that, you can help with the SFW part of the system.

Current Progress:

Here's how model files look like for now: after defining the skeletal structure, one defines all the details about the bones and material files.

Here's how animation files look like for now: define what happens at each frame. Since both animations and models are relative, a single animation can be applied to multiple models as long as the bones affected by the animation are the same.

Once you have set everything, you can run a software that displays the animation.

Hi, if you want to join an organized team, contact us at Discord: dignoranza, we'd love to have you!

Sure, I'm interested. Do you have a Discord contact?

Hello everyone,

I'm an illustrator for RSG studio. I want to offer my skills and services to whoever needs good quality illustration/cover arts for their videogame projects. I can make character designs, reference sheets, cover arts, creatures, and so on.

I can work with any project, from VN, SFW, NSFW, horror, etc. If you like what you see, feel free to let me know at my Discord:

dignoranza

Here are examples of my art:

I work on a piece by piece basis. Pricing range from $25 for simple sketches to $120 for complete illustrations, depending on the complexity. I would like to post more, but they are bigger than the maximum allowed by Itch.io.

Of course, I'm up to price negotiation, and happy to work with you. Payment only with PayPal for now.

It's a bit awkward to talk here to be honest, don't you have a Discord or something. If you do, add me:

dignoranza

Is there a deadline? Right now I'm busy with other game projects so I cannot code immediately. I can do like 2/3 hours a week. After this month (and the first week of December), one of the games I'm making will be out and so, I have more time to work on this.

I could help if you want.

Sure but... you have not specified how to contact you
