Team Recruitment/Volunteering

[Spira]

Game title: Pokemon Eternity



Currently looking for people to help push the game out of alpha into beta and finally an open release.

Mapper: We are looking for someone to take over the mapping for our custom region. We use our own map editor; it should feel familiar to anyone who has created maps before, but easier. We are looking for someone to increase the amount of maps we have with their creativity and designs. Someone who has experience mapping for Pokemon or 2D games specifically. Due to the lack of reliable mappers I have run into, I may be looking to commission these depending on experience and quality.

Quest Writers: We need someone who can help with side quests and main quests. This would include dialogue, names; the who, what, when, where, why. Someone whose main language is English. This is more of a collaboration.

Spriter: We currently have a spriter, but looking to help spread out the work load. We are needing someone to develop more resources for our mappers, typically things like gym tiles, doodads, and new region schemes. We already have many (farms, deserts, forests, different city architecture, etc). However, I am looking for someone to add more flair to the maps and create more varied zones and add on to what we have. In the future, we also have plans to resize Pokemon sprites to be scaled to their more correct sizes, and this will require some upscaling.

Logistics: This person would be responsible for helping flesh out the specifics of various systems. For example, we have a loot drop system, in this case the person would be responsible for coming up with hard numbers such as: Items that Pokemon can drop, their chance to drop, any crafting value.

I will entertain other positions, but these are what's most needed (in order)

Progress and Videos: https://www.youtube.com/user/eternitymmorpg

Team members: Myself, Damaris, Carel, Nerual, Sven. (More who help on a case by case basis)

Current progress made: Closed alpha. We have done numerous public tests players, but will need more content to open up another round of testing.

Preferred method of contact: Message me here or join my discord channel here: https://discord.gg/9PU3wvY. Feel free to DM the administrator (me) in the Discord channel.

Game title: Pokémon Soul

Position(s) being recruited for:
Spriter (able to create 4th gen styled custom trainer sprites)
Artist (creating custom tiles, or editing 4th gen tiles, title screen, menu screens, badges)
Writer (the only position I ask for you to be experienced)
Might need other positions as the game progresses

Current progress made:

Spoiler:

Story: Currently have the outline of my story. Made some attempts to start the story (Have up to the first "gym" done) but I'm unhappy with them, totally open to new ideas from recruited writer.

Scripting: Starting on scripting once I figure out the story, and add/drop planned out features (after discussing with team)

Spriting: I've created my own custom trainer sprites for the boss trainers (gyms, evil team, elite 4) but they are placeholders for now until I recruit a spriter.

Mapping: Most progress so far, have 22 maps done (not counting the interior of city/town houses, however that's counting the different rooms/floors of caves). Finished the first 6 cities/towns, and 5 of the dungeon areas (forests, and caves), and 8 routes.However most of them need to be updated, or have few more features added.

Game's Post

Preferred method of contact: Discord, I created a server for the team. I will send the invite link to the interested people that message me about this. If you want to add me my user is Zay#0161

Additional information: I only have 4 extra requirements (nothing crazy). You can be inexperienced, or experienced, as long as you can take constructive criticism. Just be a cool person. Able to give updates often (whether it be you taking a break, or updates on the work you've done). Be inspired to work. I can lose inspiration working by myself, but if everyone is working off each other I hope to work on the game at least 5 days a week (as long as my weekly schedule works out). This is not a project I will abandon and I would like to work with like minded people.

 

[kirlial]

Position(s) being recruited for:
Looking for a partner essentially. Someone who can I can share ideas with, help critique and develop the story, would be willing to do some mapping (or offer advice on maps I make) and help provide me with encouragement. Otherwise, any help would be appreciated.
Team name:
Team Quintessence
Team members:
Just me, presently.
Game title:
Pokémon Quintessence
Current progress made:
Mapped out the first few areas, (which is a couple towns) story planned in detail, a couple other small things made.
-Please send a message if you'd like some screenshots.
Game overview:
This will be a GSC style game in terms of looks and sounds. It would take place on an original region, set prior to Red/Blue meaning that the story will look at Poké balls as a new technology and how it changes the role of trainers as becoming a trainer becomes more accessible, and so Pokémon is less restricted to the highly experienced. This leads to more battling for fun and the Pokémon league becoming more popular but there's also friction from the older elite trainers.
The main player has grown up on an island and has to travel to the mainland to seek help from an elite when a strong dragon Pokémon threatens their home. Unfortunately there's trouble brewing across the mainland as well, so acquiring help will be harder than anticipated... (if you'd like to inquire further, please message me.)

Preferred method of contact:
Private Message me on Pokécommunity and further communication will be done on a discord server.
Additional information: I'd prefer that you were a native English speaker or are otherwise very fluent. And that you do stay in touch. Cheers!
Oh and I'm pretty decent at making overworld sprites, please ask if you'd like me to make a couple.

[LillieAndNebby]

Hey there, I am a free agent looking for work! :'D

Area looking for work: music composition (piano, synthesiser, MIDI composition)
Relevant examples of your work: https://soundcloud.com/lilie-luebke/vanilla (solo piano piece)
Preferred method of contact: feel free to PM me or send an e-mail to [email protected]!
Additional information: I'm capable of composing music for piano and synthesiser in a few different genres (including my own personal style). I can also write MIDI files if you want me to do so. My skills in terms of composing fully orchestrated soundtracks are somewhat limited (except for MIDI compositions) but I'll always try to do my best!

 

[SpartaLazor]

Things have been kinda slow lately, so I might as well try to expand our team a little.

Current Positions We're Recruiting:

Composers: We're looking for someone talented in creating music, including themes for routes and towns, themes for characters, and various battle themes. We don't have a particular style of music, though we'd like to lean toward a modern vibe.

Spriters: We're working with a visually improved Gen 3 style for our overworld (as seen in the screenshots below) so we're looking for people capable of making tiles and character OW's to match that style, as well as creating Trainer Sprites and New Variants and Mega Pokemon Sprites in the more traditional Gen 4 style to match the battle system.

Concept Artists: We're looking for people with talent with design and drawing to assist in creating concepts for characters, new Pokemon Variants, and new Mega forms.

Mappers: We're hoping to find some people with experience in mapping with RMXP and are capable of creating interesting maps including interiors, towns, caves. This is normally one of my tasks, but having some more help is definitely welcome.

Method of Contact:

If you are interested in any of these positions, please contact me via PM on this site with some examples of your work or find me on Discord (our primary source of communication) at SpartaLazor#0400

Team Name:

We don't really have a team name. Never been a priority. So we're just gonna go with something like Team Awesome, I guess. That sounds pretty cool and unique.

Team Members:

Our team is pretty small at the moment, consisting of only two members.

Pixel Profligate: Our current spriting talent. He's made the vast marjority of the custom tiles and Pokemon variants shown in the collection of screenshots below. However, he is also tied over working on other things, and we could use some more talent in this area to help keep things moving steadily.

Sparta: I am in charge of most of the construction of the game. I do the mapping and the eventing. I've been working on fan-games for over three years at this point, and have a quite a lot of experience in using RMXP and Essentials, having made several older versions of Loyalty as well as two short games, Steve the Bibarel and Steve the Bibarel: Heart of Darkness.

About the Game

Game's Title: Pokemon Loyalty

Current Progress: All main content for the first demo (two gyms) is complete. We're currently updating graphics, adding polish and smoothing out gameplay issues, aiming for a release within the next month or so. We'd like to bolster our ranks to make the game shine as much as possible.

Programmer (Joe), Environmental Artist (Ken), Artist, Musician, Writer (Me!)

Game title:
Pokémon 2Bit (project name, not indicative of actual game and will change)

Current progress made:
Encounter and Battle systems are working, individual front/back sprites are included in the engine, character movement is in, the overworld sprites are in, and the bare bones of the menu are workable at this time. Almost half of the Pokémon and their stats are in the game. We have not started music, and the story is in its very early stages right now. There are some screenshots of things that have been done lately, like a "demake" (really just reducing the colors) of the HGSS item sprites, and some backgrounds I made for wild and trainer encounters.

Preferred method of contact:

Private message me on here, or add me on Discord at ????????????????#0086 (yes that's my handle)

Additional information:

This game is being developed in Unity. We're aiming to go for a non-traditional Pokémon game that introduces some new ideas, but stays true to the franchise we all know and love. Everything is based off the first two gens, but we are also including Pokémon from the Spaceworld Demo that just leaked not too long ago. We're looking to make a light-hearted, humorous game with a fresh take on the series. We're also looking for someone who is looking for a friendly atmosphere, and willing to work with us when they have (hopefully a lot of) free time. I'm a teacher so I have the summer off, though all of us work full time so we understand those kind of commitments. Thanks for reading!
