We are a small, dedicated team of 3, soon to be 4 (and hopefully 5 with you!), searching for a talented writer/narrative designer to help us craft the world of our game. We've been in pre-production for nearly six months, with full production slated to begin before the end of this year, and we're targeting a 2026 release.
Our game is designed to be an engaging yet concise experience, with around 5-10 hours of playtime for a complete playthrough. Here are some quick details about the project:
Game Overview:
- Genre: AARPG
- Setting: High Fantasy
- Art Style: Minimalistic 2D Pixel Art
Gameplay:
- Challenging combat system
- Immersive and deep story
- Rich character development
- Focus on in-world gameplay with minimal UI and less emphasis on item/skill management
- Intricate gameplay interactions
Our current team competencies:
- Character Art
- Environment Art
- Tech/Programming
- Design
- Audio & Music
- Production
We've developed some basic lore, characters, and key story elements, but we're open to revisiting and refining these aspects. Initially, your collaboration would involve assessing our current narrative framework and advising on how to enhance and expand it.
What we're looking for:
- A skilled and passionate writer
- A portfolio showcasing your previous work (published, unpublished, or unpaid)
- A strong interest in world-building, lore, and character development
- Availability to dedicate 10+ hours per week initially (this may decrease as the project progresses)
Your role will include:
- Developing the game's lore, characters, and story
- Crafting dialogue and narrative elements
Application Process:
- If you're interested, please send an email to cg@evokins.com with any questions you may have and some information about yourself and your previous work, helping us understand your writing style and experience.
- We will send selected candidates a story prompt to complete. This task is solely for evaluating your creativity, style, and writing skills. The work will only be used for evaluation purposes unless otherwise agreed upon.
- After evaluation, if we feel there’s a match, we will proceed with the onboarding process.
Application due date: 21st of August!
We're excited to find the right person to join our journey and help bring this world to life!
