Hello fellow game devs, I’m looking for artists of any kind, whether you dabble in 3D, 2D or UI, to work on a Firewatch inspired project.
Currently, we’re a team of 14, consisting of the whole house: programmers, VAs, writers, game designers, artists etc.. However, we are only 4 artists with no UI designer. My role in this project is as programming & project lead, you can find my portfolio here
I’ve started this project around 2 month ago and progress has been going slowly but surely. On the artistic side, we’re bottlenecking a bit which is why I’m seeking new members to speed up development
This is a follow-up post and you can find the original here.
The Game Idea
A game inspired by Firewatch. You and a couple of friends go camping. While collecting wood for the campfire, you notice another campsite occupied by a tribe. This tribe has captured people and burned one of them in front of your eyes. You go back to camp and tell your friends about the situation, intrigued they follow you to the other camp but there’s nothing there anymore. At night you are awoken by nightmares of the previous night. Going out of your tent, you are captured by the very tribal members you saw. You and your friends are bound by a cliff where a tribal member pushes you off. Miraculously, you end up surviving. Your objective is to find the perpetrators, free the people they’ve captured, free your friends and get out of that forest. In this game, you will have to make multiple choices which will heavily impact your gameplay and the ending you will get; making it truly unique for each player
If you’ve been in the game development industry long enough, you’ll know that most projects never see the light of day no matter how dedicated the team is or how great the idea is. We’re looking to change that and actually finish something to we can all be proud of and add to our portfolio.
Whether you’re just dipping your toes into the artistic side of game development or are an experienced artist, as long as you are ambitious and motivated, you’re more than welcome on our team.
We’re not only looking to make a game but to build up a team of people to help each other in future projects and make new connections.
With that said, if this project sounds interesting to you, you can directly reply under this post or contact me via my discord handle @ rc137
Contacting me doesn’t necessitate any commitment so even if you just have a question do not hesitate to reach out. Looking forward to hearing from you !
Thanks for reading,
Cheers, C137
