Hi!

I'm a software engineer for my day job (I've worked for several startups and two very well known companies writing Typescript/Node, various frontend frameworks, Python, C#/.Net, Go, a little Java, and PHP). I'm always doing personal projects for fun (procedural music generation, Twitter bots, etc) and I've wanted to add game development as a creative outlet for a while. 

I'm having a pretty good time with Unity (already being familiar with C#), but I'm hitting a wall when it comes to doing sprites/modeling/animation. I'm just not visually inclined that way! I'm looking for someone who is more visually inclined who would let me do the coding on a project. I'm not looking for a whole lot of creative control, just a project where I can apply my coding skills to help someones game idea come to life. I'm new to this, so I'm not looking to be paid. I think some good fits, project wise might be:

a. a prototype or proof of concept for a game idea

b. a game jam

c. a small, experimental/artsy game

c. someone else who is experienced/capable in modeling/animation/illustration but learning about game dev who would like a collaborator so that they can focus on what they know

Let me know if you have room or a need for a programmer! Thank you!

I struggle with Unity but I'm looking for a Unity programmer to help me with an FPS project or least get the basics started (help as in create it for me, I haven't been able to do it myself).

If you're interested in this idea, please contact me and we'll discuss it further.

That sounds like a good fit! I'm new to itch.io, so I'm not sure if there's a way I can DM you. How would you like to continue the conversation?

That's a good question as I'm new to itch.io as well.

You can email me at my username here at gmail.com.

Please post in the subject your username so I don't think it's spam!

Was skimming through posts and wanted to drop a comment! Good to see you guys are connecting, hopefully your collab will be in value for both of you! :)
Most people will usually use discord and dm each other through there. Also a great way to share assets, screens and live chat etc..
