Intro
Greetings, we are Grand Scheme Games.
Our mission is to make games that bring warmth to people's hearts and elevate their consciousness.
We are a team of 5, composed of a Producer/Designer, Developer, Character Artist, 3D modeler, and a musician.
At present we are looking for a new member to join our team to assist us on our newest project: City of the Sleeping Goddess
More specifically, we're looking for an environmental artist!
General Needs
We are looking for someone with the following skills and commitments
- Comfort and Experience with Concepting- Our game City of the Sleeping Goddess Takes place in the Immortal Doctrine Universe. It it composed of a lore about 4 years in the making, and requires someone to take over the visual representation and feeling of the game's universe. We're looking for someone who is interested in owning and defining the visual aspects of the Immortal Doctrine Universe based on some of the principles already set (though they are flexible) as well as expanding the visuals according to their own vision.
- Texturing and Materials - You'll be working closely with our 3D modeler to help create nice textures to bring the highest quality to the game we can muster visually
- UI, Backdrops and other Art Needs - You would work with our character artist Shaina, to assist her with areas that she may not be able to cover which could include UI, Backdrops for our Visual Novel style dialogue and eventual dating sim, etc.
Examples:
Other things we really look for
- Love for What you do - This is number 1. One thing that you'll tell about our games is that everything we do is made with love. And we do this because it is an expression of our love.
- A great team player - You do what you can for the team. We support each other and hold each other up, as well as hold each other accountable. Since this posting, we've been together for just over 1.5 years and though we've learned a lot working together, we hope to improve even more.
- A great communicator - Our team is completely remote, meaning communication can be tough unless we make an effort. Though we don't expect people to be available all the time, or even everyday (or sometimes a few days), we feel it is very important that we are able to get ahold of one another easily. Every couple of days at least (or just giving a heads up when you might be unavailable for more than a few days.)
- A nice person - Can't go wrong with being a nice person (it's okay if you're a jerk sometimes... to other people though hehe >:D)
Technical Responsibilities and Duties
As mentioned above, you'd be responsible for the entire visual presentation of the Immortal Doctrine universe. This would be a great opportunity for you to create a world and with a visual style that is uniquely yours.
A common example would be through creating concepts, so that our Modeler will be able to convert them into in-game assets
We have other opportunities as well such as helping us to polish our VN backdrops and potentially making the City even fancier than it already is
Compensation (A.K.A. Capitalism Ho!)
Everyone on our team functions via a dynamic revshare system.
Everyone is treated as a Freelancer and provided a percentage of revshare for City of the Sleeping Goddess as an independent project which is reflected on the amount of work and personal effort they were required to put in, in order to complete the project.
We have contracts drafted and reviewed by our lawyer as well as trademarks for GSG and City of the Sleeping Goddess in process, so yes, we are quite official and all that.
Of course you can feel free to ask us if you have questions!
Final Things
We’re a team of people of a range of ages and stages in life. What connects us is our pursuit to follow in the mission of GSG and put ourselves in a position where we can do this professionally.
Ideas come and go, but it’s the people who work on them together who make them happen. Ultimately, we just want to have a solid team that can work on this game and future games full time.
At the moment the game is in "Polish" phase, so at the moment we don't have as much content to show, but we'll have more to show soon enough.
You can also find some of our marketing stuff on our instagram.
I will do my best to get back to all of you asap though I will be taking my time to have conversations with you all.
We'll be looking to make a final decision by the end of this month, however, if someone comes on by that just seems to be an amazing fit, it could be sooner. Naturally I'll keep this open as long as possible though so that we try not to miss anyone.
