Edit: We've managed to recruit a programmer over reddit, he seems great, a new programmer is no longer needed

Hello, I'm an "organisator" of a small group of people (~6) currently developing a Your Turn to Die fangame with the same mechanics but a  new "original" story,  sprites etc. We've already gotten a story writer, 2 artists and sounder designer, and from the stuff I've seen from them it's amazing, they are all very talented!

In case you don't know Your Turn to Die it is very simmilar to Danganronpa, and if you don't know that either, let's just roughly say it's a "Deathgame Thriller Visual Novel". While the original was/is being made in RPG Maker we want to use a more modern engine so we can implement new stuff like fullscreen,  maybe an android port etc.

Speaking of that, our programmer recently had to jump out due to sudden personal life changes, so we only got as far as discussing technical stuff, that's why we are looking for a new one.

We don't really have a wish for one certain engine, however it would be very nice if  you would stay in the project until the end (developing stuf like story and sprites will take a long time)  in case you are using a less-known engine. I suspect a big challenge will also be getting a good save system and organized dialouge system  going since...y'know, it's a story based game that consits of a bunch of text and switching portraits. Oh yeah, and pls don't leak anything hehe

So yeah, if you wanna do it and think you meet the requirements, write down below! If you're a team of people  feel free to also apply as that, I just never coordinated something like that before so that's why I am looking for one person right now

RPG Maker MV and MZ can do both of those though

Huh, that's news to me!

Pressing F4 will send any RPG Maker MV/MZ game fullscreen (For earlier it's ALT+Enter). If you want it to start, you'll need a plugin or some edit. There is also plugins that add a Fullscreen option to the Options menu.

This basically means that Your Turn To Die can do all of these, but the dev just chose not to bother I guess. Though you can "mod" RPG Maker games so anyone can easily make it Fullscreen by default and make an Android port

Woah that's amazing, I didn't know that! Thanks for letting me know!

This sounds interesting! Would it be possible to see some concept art or similar?

I completly forgot to close this post, we recently got a guy, terribly sorry about that!!! Thanks for reminding me

And I wish I could show some stuff but our Script Writer said something along the lines of "The fans don't like it when groups reveal themselves too early" which is pretty interesting. I know you might have had some interest in the project instead of fanning but uhhh yeah, terribly sorry about that!
