Hi! The project is slowly moving forward and our team is looking for some help with quest design and dialogue narrative. Our goal right now is to develop a 1h Beta that we will publish as a demo. After this, we will look at how to approach the completion of the full game. Currently, we do not have a budget.
All members of the team worked on previous game projects before, studied game design, or worked in related fields. We understand this is a project with no budget, but we put a lot of work and passion into giving the best results possible and making this project a reality. Because of this, we are looking for someone who can work in a team, enjoy creative processes, and have some experience in writing quests (any type of experience is welcomed)
In terms of story, there is a huge planning done already but there is still a lot of work to design the specific quests, some of the NPCs, dialogues, etc.
If you want more information about the project message me on my Discord: aika112
About the game
The Land of Lies is a story-driven pixel top-down fantasy adventure RPG. The player will role-play as the main protagonist and choose how the story will progress and the speed at which they want to complete their adventure. The main objective is to follow the main quest and defeat the final boss, but the player can choose when to progress with the main quest. The player can choose to focus on the main quest, complete side quests which would increase their popularity in the village, play mini-games like fishing, decorate their house, or even just roam around the forest defeating enemies to increase their economy by selling the loot.
Short synopsis:
You will help Orla in her journey, during the day you will help the villagers and explore the surrounding forest, during the night you will face your own nightmares of the mistakes of your past. You were told your whole life how bad forest people are...yet you still think about that one you befriended when you were small and who betrayed you. When a meteorite falls, you will have to face your past and recover its power before they do it... unless it was all a lie and by recovering the meteorite you awaken an old force that starts corrupting and killing everything in its surroundings. Now you will have to adventure in the magic forest and face the corruption defeating the evil you awaken.
