Hello! I'm currently in the beginning stages of creating a sci-fi visual novel, and I'd love to build a team to help me see this project through! Unfortunately, I can't offer compensation to anyone at this time, though that might change later on.
Specifically, I'm looking for another writer(s) who can help me: bounce ideas around, build plot and characters, and actually write the script. I can offer my own writing samples if you're concerned about my qualifications, but in the same vein I would like to see your own as well!
Art-wise, I'm looking for someone who favors a more realistic style, 2D, and who is willing to work with me when it comes to design. I have ideas, of course, but I am also aware I'm not a visual artist.
I will readily admit I don't have a great deal written of the script, though I have given ample consideration to the world and its lore, and would love the opportunity to discuss more in-depth with anyone who's curious.
Other details... I fully intend for the protagonist to be a woman, and yes, there will be romance options of varying genders. There will be a great many choices, all of which affect the outcome of the game itself.
As far as the world itself is concerned, I am drawing from such inspirational sci-fi media as: Mass Effect, Star Wars, and a lesser-known VN called Cardinal Cross (a shame, really). I'd rather not info-dump about the world here, though, so ask and I'll try to explain as best I can.
Ideally, I would like partners who have a fair amount of free time and don't mind chatting over discord (please feel free to add me if you're interested - my handle is Resoan#4408). Email's also fine, if you prefer it (my address is grimmsandhooks@gmail.com). Please don't hesitate to reach out even if you're the tiniest bit curious! I freely admit I am new to this process, but I'm eager to learn and motivated to get started!
P.S. I am well aware that I will also need the help of a programmer/coder and likely a musician as well, but I know I don't have enough completed now for a programmer to have much to do, unless you're also willing to help in other capacities.
