Hi!
I'm looking for various roles for a game inspired on The Witch's House MV.
In order of priority:
- Level Designer
- Pixel Artist
- Sound Designer
If anyone is comfortable with RPG Maker MV events and is interested, feel free to contact me.
My idea is, if and when we'll be able to complete a publish the game, to share the profits, as I think it's only fair to not work for the glory only :)
Project:
Story: The story revolves around the protagonist, Mike, who is driving his car to an unknown location. The road he is on becomes blocked, forcing him to take a detour. While driving through a forest, his car encounters a problem and comes to a stop. Mike notices smoke rising over the trees and discovers a mansion or castle nearby.
Inside, a butler informs him that he has been expected (at this point, the player can choose whether to lie or tell the truth). There are other guests present, and as night falls, some of them begin to disappear, creating a sense of tension reminiscent of Agatha Christie's "And Then There Were None". During the nights, Mark will be involved in challenges with other guests. Here, he must solve puzzles and make choices that could either sacrifice his own safety or leave the others behind.
All of this occurs because the mansion is a courthouse. The protagonist and the other guests have committed a crime or a sin in the past and will be judged based on their actions. If they will continue their wrongdoing during the challenges, they will be damned; otherwise, they'll have a chance at redemption.
Gameplay aspects: I drew inspiration from the game "The Witch’s House MV" for the general theme of the game and its mechanics. There will be two different kinds of challenges for the player: scenarios that involve solving puzzles and scenarios that will test the player's reflexes.
I would like for players to be able to intuit the lore behind the NPCs and Mike's past, including their sins and the reasons why they have arrived at the mansion, all without direct explanation.
If anyone is interested to join this project, feel free to send me a message on Discord: dermir.
I hope we'll be able to create a great game :)
