Game Development Team Recruitment

[WindedMelodies]

Hello! I'm new to PC, but I need some work to do. I'm a writer, so I'm an impeccable grammarian and spelling nazi. As such, I wish to offer my services in the grammar/spelling check department.

Area looking for work: Grammar/spelling checker
Timezone: UTC-6 Although I am up all hours of the day and night, so timezone doesn't really matter.
Preferred method of contact: email at [email protected]
Examples of work: Umm... Do I write a short story here or something?
Additional Info: Professionalism of dialogue is one thing that can make or break a game for me, and it's a touch that many other people appreciate. I am also willing to help with storyboarding/creative consultation if desired. Although that is less in demand, and understandably so.

Job: Scripter

[Somni]

• Team name: Project Auro
• Team Leader: Sean Cruz(Somni)
• Current Members: Somni
• Current Game title: Auro: and the City of Fire
• Current progress made: 10%
• Timezone: Eastern Standard Time
• Preferred Method of contact: PM or Email: [email protected]
• Game Maker Engine: RMXP
• Positions Available/Needed:
  -Coders who understand and can modify the Pokemon Starter Kit well.
  -Coders who can modify the menus, the battle interface, and rpg elements of the Pokemon Starter Kit.
  

Additional Information:
Project Auro is similar to Pokemon games-you capture creatures and build a party with them. However, there will be key differences: there will be new rpg elements, new graphics, and true moral dilemmas that will shape the game. The game setting takes place in a much darker, gruesome time period, where magic exists, and is used to capture wild creatures called Aramons.

Spoiler:

Preview of Aramons There will be a high number of creatures that inhabit the world. Each will have different upgradable skills and powers that require coding.

Spoiler:

Further Info on Rpg Elements Coders will be tasked with modifying the Pokemon Starter Kit. Creature party members will have upgradable skills and powers. Main Player will have an upgradable power to capture new party members. Just as Pokemon have different types such as Water, Fire, Grass, Project Auro will have its own elemental kinds that diversifies the many different kinds of creatures in the game. These are some of the major coding work that needs to be done.

Spoiler:

Further Info on Graphics Project Auro will have completely custom graphics with a unique style. Coders will be tasked with creating or modifying special weather effects scripts if need be.

Spoiler:

Further Info on Menus and Battle System Coders will be tasked with modifying the Starter Kit's menu and battle system. They will be tasked with creating or modifying the World Menu(Options, Party, Items/bag, Skills, Save, etc), the Dialogue System(choices), and the Battle Interface(Hp bars, attack options, etc)Below are concepts that show the proposed menu system, dialogue system, and battle interface. All menu modifcations will deal with the placement of the custom graphics.

Understand that you do not have to be experienced in doing everything. If you could do just one of the things listed below I will consider your application. If you can do more than one thing-great! If you have mild or little experience in coding, I might consider your application if you are dedicated to learning the Kit or program on the job.

How to Apply:

• Full Name:
• What You Can Do: (What can you do from the coding listed above)
• Contact(Preferrably Skype/MSN. If not then just name the best way to contact you)
• Showcase: (Can be collaborations on other projects or videos of past projects, etc)

Story:

Spoiler:

Normally at your age the ideal time would be near to start a journey to discover yourself with Pokemon. With an overprotective parent, coupled with the fact that you have never stepped one foot out of Blissleaf Town, the unknown may always remain unknown.

Arguing with your mother has gotten you no where... frustrated and angered, you pout yourself loudly into bed. As you were slumbering into a deeper and deeper sleep, a calm humming sound started emanating near you. Alarmed you quickly adjusting yourself to get alert. Getting steadily out of bed you slowly rise up as the humming get's louder.. louder... and louder. The hair on the back of your head is kissed by a cool breeze, as you see a sheet of white light encasing your window.

ZOOM.

Before having any time to react, the sheet of light suddenly became volatile, as it torn through the carpet, you try to resist, but the force of the light couldn't be outmatched, forcefully grabbing onto your leg. You frantically try to grab hold of the ripped carpet beneath you, but any effort resulted in a negligible outcome. Your heart is racing, your mind is blank, filled with confusion towards the events that are transpiring. The distance between you and the light is becoming dramatically.. closer.... and closer. You peer through the light and you see a pair of eye's focused right at you... they're not human. Halfway through the sheet of light, you try to struggle and scream you way out but darkness starts spreading through your eyes, as you drop the the ground and faint.

You wake up to find yourself in an unfamiliar area, daunting and full of horror. Here, you begin your journey...

Pokemon Amaranth is a project that has undergone development since the beginning of last month (June 2011). The main focus of this project is to provide thrilling story-telling experience, while not deviating from the standard format that has made Pokemon games successful. Another emphasis in Pokemon Amaranth will be the aesthetics; each map, image, every single bit that is worked on will help make the game visually pleasing. Mapping is being practiced as a conscious effort to effectively capture the environment that Pokemon Amaranth will pride itself on. Our job is a continual practice of revising and mastering maps to capture tension, culture, drama, and emotion that we feel envisions the tone and mood of a dark story.

Pokemon Amaranth will consist of two regions, the Shinkou Region and the "Lost" Region. The premise of Pokemon Amaranth revolves around the idea of alternate dimensions. You are a young kid who lives their life in an isolated and irritating life in Blissleaf Town, located at the far north edge of Shinkou. You know nothing of the world outside Blissleaf. Through a strange and unexplained phenomenon you are taken to an alternate dimension. The area you land is completely horrific, covered in a mull purple mist, barren, rotten, and in ruins. As you wander around you unfortunately encounter members of organization called "Black Dawn". They answer your questions, briefly, before they decide to imprison you. Apparently this world you were taken to has been destroyed by Black Dawn, who have been able to genetically engineer a gas that has been used to biologically corrupt and kill Pokemon. When you were brought here years have passed since the Black Dawn took charge. Most of the remaining Pokemon have built an immunity to the gas..... the rest, extinct. The world is already in a state too late to save, as the ripple effects of the gas have caused society to collapse. Before you are taken away by Black Dawn you are saved at the last minute, as three lights came whirling towards your feet, when the dust cleared Pokeballs were laying on the ground. In the distance, you see those same eyes, ponderously staring in your direction before they disappear in the trees. You managed to fend off Black Dawn for now with the help from the Pokemon you called upon. As you progress through the game you will learn to discover that you were brought to this dimension because Black Dawn is planning to extend their power to other dimensions, including yours, and you need to stop them at all costs.

Additional Info

I want people who have had a bit of experience. I?m not asking for you to be an expert (Though that would be nice) but I want you to have a general understanding of what you are doing. I?d like to see something you have done previous to this. Since this is a team effort, each of us will have an equal say in how the game turns out.

The game itself is a dark game. Not horror dark, but it falls into the suspense section. What need from people on the team is to be able to create a dark atmosphere. There will be no happy Pokemon in the game. No cute Pokemon. If that?s what your good at, then I?m sorry but this game is not for you.

Although it looks like I can?t do anything, I can Map and have a general knowledge of scripting. I just feel that things go faster when you have help, haha. I?m nowhere near great, but it?s a learning experience for not just me, but everyone on the team. I hope to make some great friends :D

That?s about it. If you have any questions about the game itself, just send me a PM. I look forward to working with you great people, and wish you all the best!

This game is being made in RPG Maker XP (Unless something better comes up XD)

Current Game Title: Pokemon Titanium (made with RPGXP)
Current Progress Made: Hmm, hard to say. Our mapper is good to go, story is planned up for a bit, events are being coded. But we need some stuff to really hit things running. I'd say the first town is almost done except for like...events. Hopefully a demo of the first town will be done soon.
Position(s) Needed: A good spriter, a scripter/event writer (I'm new at this and I learn best by seeing stuff, so I'd like to learn, but also to help with the complicated ideas). If the two people wish, they could even have imput on the storyline (that'll be explained upon accepting the person in). We could also use someone to make an animated gif for the title screen and maybe some other graphics as well (Promotion or game pics)
Preferred Method of Contact: PM, AIM (TwistedArachnid) just make sure you say 'PokeCommunity' in the first IM so I don't think it's a bot trying to get me to webcam haha
Timezone: I'm Eastern (PA), my two buddies are in Kansas
Additional Info: As per usual, please send me an example of your work We'll deliberate and let you know :) Despite being new to the forums, we're definitely dedicated to finishing this. We've both wanted to make a game for awhile now, and finally found the means to do so.

Recruiting A Team Member

Team Name: Not really one
Team Leader: I guess that would be me
Current Members: Myself (Programmer), two buddies (Tileset, Spriting, Mapping, Storywriting)
Current Game Title: None yet (I would be glad to have a creative teammember thinking of a name)

Engine used: C# with XNA

Position(s) Needed: an advanced programmer in C#, maybe a little knowledge of socket programming or - if not - XNA, a creative guy for the graphics like titlescreen, login, HUD or battlebacks, storywriter, mapper (always needed)
Preferred Method of Contact: PM, I can add you to Skype, MSN or ICQ afterwards
Timezone: UTC +1:00 (Germany), shouldn't be a problem, though
Additional Info: If possible send me an example of your work, in case of programmers you can send me a code snipped regarding either XNA or socket programming. Although I would be glad for any help, at the moment I'm responsible for client, server and mapeditor all at the same time :)

We hope to hear from you soon!
