[Art] [Programmer] [Composer] I'm starting a studio and recruiting for a project.

Like the title says, I'm starting a game studio and I'm looking for 3 people to join me. I need to fill 3 positions. I'm a game designer, but I still need a programmer, a composer/sound designer, and an artist.

I am hoping to build momentum off of this game into the next one so it would be ideal if applicants are self-motivated, driven to succeed, and are willing to step into leadership roles in future projects with this small studio.

I have the GDD already written up for this first game. I'm estimating a turn around time of 6 months +/- 3 months. I want to post this game on multiple publishing sites (itch.io, steam, etc.) for sale. Feel free to DM me with any questions.

Artist requirements/preferences: 2D art, 3D modeling, Textures and Materials, UV Unwrapping

Programmer requirements/preferences: As this will be in Unreal Engine an understanding of C++ is preferred as well as an understanding of Unreal's Blueprints system

Composer/Sound Designer requirements/preferences: Dynamic music, Music creation of multiple genres, Audio editing, Sound effect creation/Foley


Update 10/6 - Number of Official Applicants: 

Programmers - 1

Artists - 1

Composers - 5 (Closed)

Hello! I'm interested! Where could we talk? Here is my discord: juliandtee

I would like to apply for the artist position. 

Your's sincerely,

Julian

Hi, I sent you a discord request. I saw your portfolio and it looks good. Would you still like to interview for the position?

Hell yeah I do!!

Hello! Are these paid roles?

That is a valid question. I can say there will be monetary compensation , but these are not salary nor hourly positions. Compensation will be a percentage of the revenue as the game sells. I had to come up with a new pay structure since I don't have any capital to pay wages. Basically if the game is made top quality and in a timely manner we will all be paid. How much depends purely on sales.

I'll also say that this is hopefully the first of many great games as well as a new way for game developers to form studios. I will happily discuss this more through DM.

Hello, programmer here.

I'm only experienced in Unity, but i want to dig into UE5 anyways and I'm already fluent in C++.
If you are still looking for more codeforce my discord name is "tj_codez".

best regards

Hi! I'm absolutely still looking for all roles to fill including programmer. If you're still interested I sent you a discord request. We can talk about it there.

I sent a friend request but after no response I tried again and discord says that you aren't accepting friend requests. I am not sure if you changed your settings or if it is simply because you have not checked your discord app, but I thought I'd reach out again to see if there was a misunderstanding on my part. Would you still like to interview for the position?

Just posting a weekly update here that while I have several interviews already lined up I haven't officially brought anybody on yet. I am still accepting applicants and will continue to update this forum post until all 3 positions are filled.

hi do you need music?? I have 2 packs ready to go and working on a 3rd and I have low prices and they are all very nice.  I can do custom tracks for as low as 10 dollars too!

I appreciate the offer, but while your music is good I'm looking for a composer to tailor the pieces for the projects the studio will work on. I would like to give you an interview via discord if you are interested in the position, but I am not in the market for individual tracks at the moment. I've sent an friend invite if you are interested in the position.

ok... I'm still up for that too

Hello, I am a junior 3D renderer and modeler, 

I have my portfolio published on freelancer: https://www.freelancer.com.ar/u/MatPeralta

I can make detailed models of settings, buildings, nature, render them into high quality images for promotional purposes or whatever is necessary. I have already worked on 3D modeling for a space video game, I can show you more about that project than what is published in my portfolio.

Also, if necessary, code and programming management. I have knowledge of game design and two (Almost 3) published games made on my own in Godot engine.

Hi. I'd love to give you an interview. Do you have a discord I can reach you at?

Hi! Yes, I'm still interviewing for positions and would love to add you for an interview. I tried to add you on Discord, but I couldn't because Discord claims that you are blocking friend requests. Can you adjust your settings and let me know when you have please?

Hi everybody! Just a quick update for the week. I have received many offers of interest in this project from composers and some offers from programmers both on itch.io as well as through other channels. I believe I have made a decision on the composer but I still haven't decided on programmers. If you are a programmer or an artist and you want to get in on the ground floor of a new Indie studio the application process is still open. Composers/Sound designers, I will continue to accept applications until all roles have been decided, so if you believe you're up to the task apply now and I will be happy to interview all who do. Just post your discord name and I will send a friend request as soon as I am able. Thank you all for your continued interest in this project.

Hi! Sorry for the delayed response. I've been busy going through all of the applications I've had as well as all the interviews. Speaking of which, I visited your soundcloud. You've got some great stuff. If you are still interested we could chat more on Discord. I've sent you an invite there.

There has been great response to the Job posting, but I've filled the Composer position I'm still looking to fill the other positions so any artists and programmers who want in on this and the next projects I also have lined up for when this project is complete.

A common question asked in the interviews has been about the turnaround time for the project. I can tell you that the deadline is 6 months +/- 3 months. This means that the project will not be published before the 3 month mark and it will absolutely be published officially by the 9 month mark from the project start date. On this you have my word. The game is a modified version of Tic-Tac-Toe where a tied game is impossible.
