Hello. my name is Yui, I would like to gather a team around for a VN project, I would like to tell you about.
The title Milcham: From The Ashes Of Hearts
1) Overview :
Welcome to the Ursa Magic Academy of Ursa Kingdom, where you will learn how to control and use your magic power. Follow the story of a 'once' trouble maker girl that has her second chance to redeem herself. it will be an adventure. Join her journey, meet new friends, discover and uncover mysteries and truths... and maybe true love.
It's a VN with Otome genre in the fantasy modern kingdom that focuses on a mysterious intriguing storyline while providing affection routes. Everyone has their own secrets and past to deal with to make a better future right?
The themes can be light-hearted fluff with a dash of tragedy, a slice of life, comedy and life-changing, those are some of the themes of the VN.
It won't be gore or lewd. Love interest routes are the final outcome since it is an Otome, and at least have 3 different endings on each route (True love, Friend Zone, Dark End)
The target audience would be around the age of 15++
2) What needs to be done :
The writing is on its way, but I would like the team to have an impact on the storyline. Total work would be 150 - 200K English words, can be more depends on how it goes since I am still working on the story.
I'm searching for:
- Artists for the sprites. They'll be anime-style, and I have a rather good idea on their general appearance, but there's room for your creativity.
There will be 10 main sprites, with two to three poses and two outfits each, plus five to twelve facial expression depending on the character. You can also expect up to twelve minor characters with a single pose and three facial expressions on average. If you need a more precise view on the art style needed, here is a sample I made of one of the main cast :

BG/CG and GUI design artist will also be needed. Around 20 BG (can be more... but I will try to make it more lesser) and 25 CG are currently planned, but it might change. (can be lesser or more)
A music composer is also needed. I tend to rely on piano, violin or classic guitar rather than on loud beats and electro music. Expect around 20 tracks (1mXX average)
There will be a custom choice select, timed, and sentences will sometimes flow through the screen. So It would require some coding. A developer would be much appreciated. Also wanting a type of quest/ riddle the player need to solve to advance to the next part of story. Expect two to three separates "minigames" like that. (something like Mana Khemia, but much simpler)
Co-writers, since the whole story it not fully done, I am open for writers who would love to jam in their ideas and suggestions. Someone who is open minded and can cooperate well. Also someone who loves the world of magic and fantasy. (can be a proofreader and editor too)
What is important is that i'm looking for a real team who will build and share together, laugh and support each other. I intend to do a VN with people I want to be friend with. I want it to be an adventure to share, maybe the first of many. But at the same time I wish for people that willing to stay in the journey until the end, it will be hard for everyone else if somewhere in some point of time someone just suddenly decided to leave just because of simple matters like 'losing interest'. It is understandable if real life matters comes to play, but I really wish to have a team that will start the journey together and reach the goal together.
The work is aimed to be a free one to begin with, but if it goes well, I'm not against selling it, in which case the team would equally share whatever profit, if any.
Feel free to join this project if you feel like to !
The current goal is to launch a demo within at the end of 2020 or the latest early 2021, and to release within middle/ end of 2021.
