Welcome to Hidden Trace recruitment thread!
It's a small project I'm working on right now.
I've created the general concept, some artwork and music assets, and creating the game mechanic.
Unfortunately, the game progression itself is very minimal.
Because I primarily focus on creating the assets.
So I guess I need some help.
Let's go straight to the topic then.
Engine
RPG Maker MV
Play Time
Roughly 1-2 hours
Synopsis
Being immortal must be a beautiful thing. Enjoying the pleasure of life eternally, without the fear of death.
No.
Gale, a former treasure hunter who become a vampire, knows all too well the dark side of being immortal.
One snowy day, he met the Master of Time.
A glimpse of his past flows through his memory...
He remembered the time when he drank the Vampire's Blood to become an immortal.
Gale asked the Master of Time to send himself to the past.
He wanted to kill his past self before he get a chance to drink the vampire's blood.
Can he do it?
*Okay, maybe that's not the best kind of synopsis. But you get the idea.
If you want to know more about this project, see the game's thread here.
Roles Needed
Mapper (filled)
Honestly I already created some maps.
Your role here is to create the remaining maps and (if you are able to) beautifying the existing maps.
How to apply:
PM me with at least 4 map screenshots consist of 1 world map, 1 outside, 1 inside, and 1 dungeon. (the more the better)
You can use RTP or custom tileset for the examples.
If you are using the custom one, make sure you're allowed to use it legally.
Monster Designer (filled)
I've made some monsters. But I'd love some help from you.
Create interesting monsters using the available graphics, designing the fighting pattern and the skills.
How to apply:
PM me with at least 3 monster designs and 1 boss. Explain about the monsters strength, weakness, fighting pattern, and skills.
Follow this template:
-Monster Name
-Strength
-Weakness
-Fighting Pattern
-Skills (explain about the monster skills in detail)
Optional Roles
The optional roles are resource-based. I do realize making resources is not an easy task.
So only apply if you are truly interested with the project.
GUI Maker (filled)
I've made some part of custom battle GUI and custom windowskin.
Your role is to create the remaining GUI for the game. (menu and title GUI for example)
Icon Maker
Create custom icons for the game
Battleback Maker
I need battlebacks that can fit my character's art style and fitting for the maps
Tileset Artist (Highly Optional) (filled, but still open)
Doing tileset recolors or small edits.
I noticed the RTP tileset is lacking an atmospherical element.
With its wild choice of colors, it doesn't seem really cohesive too.
The tileset artist role is to make the RTP tileset more atmospheric and cohesive-looking.
Spriter (Highly Optional)
Create unique sideview battlers for the characters. There are 4 characters in-game.
If you are up to the task, I will give you an example of what I want to create
How to apply for the optional roles:
Send me a PM with at least 3 examples of your work.
*Note regarding recruitment:
Regardless of the recruitment state, I will try my best to keep progressing and at least finish a demo.
But I will open this recruitment as long as there are still roles to fill.
**Note regarding the applications:
I will notify you as soon as I receive your applications.
But I will review your applications before I can decide whether you are able to join the team or not.
So give me some time before I make the conclusions.
***Note regarding credits:
I will credit your username and your real name (if I am allowed to)

Reward
I will create special resource pack (arts and music) only for the Hidden Trace team members. The number of contents will be decided by how well the project goes. (of course there are additional contents for optional roles)
The reward is available once the project is done.
