Hello everyone! Are you still looking for team members to join your team, or are you lone wolves like me who would like to pack up? Here's my proposal. I will tell you about myself, so you know who you're interacting with, a little about the type of project I was planning on making for this game jam, and you can decide if you prefer to walk away or team up.
About me: I've been enthusiastic about everything gaming since... forever. Whether they be video games, boardgames, tabletops, escape rooms, you name it. What keeps me engaged in a game is first the story and second the mechanics and aesthetics. After all, at my core, I'm a fiction writer (writing novels is my biggest hobby and obsession). Although I'm not a programmer myself, most of my friends are, so I can roleplay the rubber duck any day if you need to do some rubberduck debugging 😉 As for the languages I speak, I am fluent in Romanian (mother tongue), English and French, and currently learning Italian (B1 level). Sorry for the German speakers, my skills there are limited to greetings, saying thank you and apologising 😅 So, entschuldigung!
About my planned project: in terms of game development, I am already familiar with the RPG Maker engine (MV and MZ) so this is what I was planning to use. For those who haven't heard of it, this is a less powerful engine than Unity or Unreal, but far more accessible to non-programmers like me. The style is that of jrpgs, and the core aesthetics is pixel art (tiles of 48x48). If that's not your jam, I'm always happy to switch tracks and focus on the storytelling aspect of a game (not necessarily video games!) and maybe collaborate somewhat on the design (I love drawing, but my skills are questionable).
Well, this was me. I hope to hear from you now.
P.S. I unsuspiciously promise that I'm not a vampire and I shall not feast on your blood when you sleep :))
