I try to do everything I can myself but I found that I'm not very good at creative writing, like at all.

Thus I come to you in my time of need, I'm looking for a lead writer to take over my stylized 1-Bit RPG project which will entail taking full control of the story, including general storyline, character dialogue, set pieces, and flow of the story.

But first, here's a few images of what I have so far to give you a better idea of what the game actually is (as of now) (Keep in mind, nothing here is even close to final, this is effectively just a vertical slice.)

To sum it up, I need somebody to take control of the direction of the game & plot who is capable of writing a *detailed* script I can follow while making the game.

I'm going for a psychological horror-lite adjacent feel with a focus on character interaction, and that's where I'm looking for the story direction to head in, but obviously nothing is set in stone -- we can hopefully brainstorm something we're happy with together.

Gameplay will be reminiscent of the Persona series minus the calender system & social links

My part in the game creation would be art, spriting, game mechanics, audio, mapping, and whatever else needs doing, basically anything that doesn't involve writing.

An example of what I might need;
INT. PLAYER HOME The player is woken up by a loud bang at the door, and they need to interact with it to continue, the rest of the house is filled with interactables that do not progress the plot. DOOR INTERACTION NARRATION ''The knocking continues, turning into headsplitting banging.'' ''You relunctantly extend your hand, the metal handle filling your body with a creeping sense of cold.'' ''And slowly, but surely... it opens...''

I am willing to change basically any aspect of the game to suit your new storyline & direction, so if you're looking to get a story told in game form with similar themes to what the pictures might portray this might be your chance to flex your creative skills.

If interested please PM me on here (ideally with examples of your previous work, especially game related), or if you have any questions leave them in the replies, thank you.

Oh, and no guarantees anything will ever come out of this, just being realistic.

@XickerskF Please update your thread to follow this section's rules, you need to state what engine you're using and include a synopsis of the game's story. I get that you're willing to change the story depending on your teammate, but it would be good to give people a general idea of what type of story (thriller, comedic horror, etc.) you were thinking. That can help spark inspiration and may make it more likely that someone will get interested in the project.

Added a bit more detail, I don't really have anything beyond that to add at the moment ngl, I'm hoping to flesh something more concrete out with a brainstorming session with whoever decides to have a helping hand

about this argument. I expressed myself badly, I did it on my own, my English was mixed with Google Translate. And I believe chatGPT didn't even exist in 2016
