Recruitment: Forever

[Rook 0]

 

Recuitment: Project Infomation ~

 

I am looking for a few people to help me with my game thus far titled "Forever." It is an RPG I have been working on for six months now, with little progress made save writing and a few characters, battle backs, a window skin and some maps. It tells the story of four young adults charged with the task of defeating a sorceress and saving the world, which is a pretty cliche and common summary, but its not nearly as cliche as it sounds. The game is developed in RPG Maker VX.

 

Recuitment: What I Would Like. ~

I would like, primarially, two things. A Composer to compose original tracks for the game, and a scripter to help me create custom content for the game which in some cases is minor edits and in others are whole new systems.

 

Both of these will be custom made for the game and not for public use, unless I allow it.

 

I am also looking for, in less urgent cases, a spriter to help me with tileset, icons and character sprites, and an artist to help me make drawings for the game, hopefully similar to my style of art which can be shown in this concept image.

 

Thankyou.

[madanchi 18]

I'd give it a test at drawings and tileset if you want, if you give me a few more images of your style, I should soon draw very similar to it

 

I have to say, I do quite like the design youve got going

[Rook 0]

Why thankyou, my art style is very simple really. Looking at this image you can see the back and the front of Alora, one of the characters. in the game, she's the girl in my sig. I have some other referance images but the eyes are going to be changed to the ones in my sig.

Another battle back and monster example. Could you perhaps give me a few examples of how you make tiles?

While comments like this are appreciated, please do not post them in this thread, you are most welcome to post them in the Project topic. This is for recruitment to working on the game, if you are offering your services that is another matter.

im sorry if this sounds rude but her eyes in your sig look a little retarded they shouldin't be looking in different directions. offcourse unless she is supposed to be skew then that's perfectly good.

 

other than that it's awsome

Once again, please reframe from posting comments here unless you are offering your services.

:biggrin_002: Hai there Rook! I could be your artist. I have a cutesy simple style like yours. Hope you think about the offer ^^

[Ecowolfsteen 14]

Okay here is a piece of art work I did when I was very, very, very, very, VERY young. I was just starting out then, and as you can see its kind of cutesy ^^ Anyway I am now better than this so, think about it. http://img696.imageshack.us/img696/214/girlspirit.png

First thing Ecowolf, you don't have to post over and over agin, there is an edit button which you can edit your posts with and change things if necessary. These are done in MS paint, correct? If so its not really the program I would use, since these were done a long time ago as you said then I would like to see some more recent work. If you have Photoshop or SAI, that would be better I think.

 

Please provide me with your most recent peice of work, and please don't throw it together in a few minutes.

[Ecowolfsteen 14]

Okay, forgot about the Edit button...Hmmmm, okay I have this...Its really cartoony and yes these were made with MS Paint but I have Photoshop but I am not that familliar with it...Pic:

 

 

Sorry...And please call me Eco. Kthxbai

While your input is greatly appreciated, I am not looking for an overload of artists, of things I am already comfortable with doing like writing. Right now my priorities are a spriter, a composer and a scripter. Sprites for characters and so on, composer for music, and aa scripter for the battle system and a few other systems.

 

My goal is working towards a demo to be released possible at the end of the year, close to the date I started work on the game. Your assistance may be called for in the future, but for now it is not needed. Thankyou for taking the time to reply though, its pretty hard to find people when your site topic is overrun by spam, which ALWAYS happens to me.

[madanchi 18]

hey, ignore my first post, im too busy anyway <_< but when i first posted i drew this to see how accurate i could get to your style.

 

since i did it, im gonna post it, i dont care what happens to it

 

[Rook 0]

That's actually pretty good, though the outline colour shold stay consistent and if it were me the bugs wings would be tranparent but its good. You don't have to be right on the money when drawing characters, this is good. If you had kept the colour straing dark black it would have been very good.

 

I use PS CS4 and I use the hexadecimal code 212121 for my black, it slightley greyer, but my art is kinda a more pastel type in colouring. I have decided to hire you as back up battler artist, can you do animals lake that? this with fur? Thats where I am lacking. Give it a go, remember to stay consistent and use the layers.

 

What I said in the last post sounded a bit mean, what I was trying to say that at this time, artists are not a priority, I don't wnt 50 of them and I prefer Photoshop or SAI based works because I feel they look smoother and offer more flexibility. If you can show me another example using a pure black outline ( by which I mean 212121) and utilising some PS skills, I may let you join the group as a "Enemy Battler and Concept artist."

 

Sorry Eco but as of this point your services are not really needed, and I don't want to hire you for fear that I might have you on my team but you will do nothing. As the game gets going a little I may need some backup but for now two artists are fine, I appreciate your offer to help though. I hope you don't take this the wrong way, being an art student I kinda tend to be over critical sometimes. If I offend you then please know I am sorry, and if you want you can PM me and we can discuss it in private.

[Ecowolfsteen 14]

All is good man, its fine. I know I suck at it. I DO use PS CS5 but i'm not that familliar with it yet. Its ok. I am getting kinda busy with the game i'm making anyway. No hard feelings.

[madanchi 18]

:o thanks for the hire! I think a 'back up' battler artist would suit me as i can be busy at times

 

I'll try the fur and animal, dont worry about the criticism, pffft I'm in a design course and get it weekly :P oh and ill re-do the line to the correct colour, i looked back in the .psd and realised it wasnt black :sweatdrop: plus I didnt realise to make the wings a little transparent at the time lol

Im still waiting on a little more art from you Madanchi. Maybe something with a bit of a beach them to it, that an area you can explore in the demo.

[Kiriashi 117]

Are you going to use the RTP tiles?

[Rook 0]

I think for the demo I might just use Macks, unless I can find a tiler willing to do tiles for me.

[Kiriashi 117]

: D

 

 

I love mack's tiles. I'd be happy to help with mapping here and there.

[madanchi 18]

ill get posting some soon, and do a beach theme? I thought i was a back up battler

[Rook 0]

You are also the concept battler person, you come up with concepts for battlers as well as helping me out with them. Try to make them not too tough loocking, its the second 'dungeon' in the game.

[madanchi 18]

ahhh right yeah ok :)
