Hello! I've been getting the itch to work in a small team to develop a game again. This is meant to be a very casual part time project where you can put in as much time as you want. I have a tech demo I developed years ago and would like to modernize it, expand on the mechanics, and redesign the visuals.
These are not paid positions. This is a very collaborative project where each team member provides feedback and opinions on each others work. We will work together and guide each other along the way. When the project is finished, we’ll decide as a team how we want to proceed.
The Game
It is a 2D puzzle platformer where the player is given a start point and an end point on a single screen. They also have a collection of different platforms and build out how they wish to traverse the level. Once they are happy with their level creation, they traverse it with their character.
The tech demo was built in Construct 2 five years ago and serves as a rough outline of the core game mechanics.
Programmer
As the programmer you’ll be tasked with building the game in whatever engine you prefer. All experience levels are welcome. Take part in key decision making in other aspects. Test out different gameplay mechanics and help develop the overall feel of the game.
Artist
You’ll be handling the art and animation. The game is a 2D side scrolling platformer and those are the only real constraints you’ll have. All aspects of the things we’ll look at are open for discussion with yourself having the final decision.
Timeline
However long we feel! Could look at the demo and everyone is happy updating it or take an opposite path and use it as a blueprint for something cooler. Take our time and have fun. How we finish the project will be collaborative and I'm very open t
This can all be condensed into the following:
I have a tech demo from a few years ago that I think has some neat ideas and would like some cool people to hang out with while we casually make it better.
Feel free to send an email with a quick introduction and I’ll send you a link to the tech demo. If you’re interested in continuing on the from there, let me know and we can have a chat.
