Hello Construct 2 Forum and interested 2D Artist!
my name is Andreas Lopez, on the worldwide web also known as 'Uriel1339'. A friend and I recently formerly founded a company to make games, we are making these in a modified version of 'One Game Per Month Challenge', so it is in reality 10 weeks consisting out of:
1 Week Pre-Production (Research, Concept, Planning, etc.)
8 Weeks Production (Making the assets, programming the game, publishing the game, etc.)
1 Week Post-Production (Post Mortem document, Marketing, etc.)
We fully intend to make commercial projects, not just games for fun and we set this 10-week challenge onto ourselves to get a realistic feel for the Game Industry as we intend our projects to become part of our portfolios and first steps into the professional portion of the industry. As a team we have completed our first game just recently named 'A Casual Chat' which won a prize in the contest we made it for.
However we are recruiting in fact for our next project, which starts around 3rd week of August with production. While it is our second project as a team, I already developed one game before that, named Space Marauder with Construct 2 and published it on Scirra Arcade. Revenue Share can be discussed in detail, but expect to earn 15%. Please note that this is not profit share. You get a piece of the cake, no matter how much we make.
Some Information on the game:
- WIP Title ' Shielda'
- 2D Side-Scrolling Action-Shooter (Metal Slug is main inspiration, supported by Contra)
- We want to make this a modern game (no chip-rock, pixel art, etc.); The closest from style is a mix between Raze [proportions] & Strikeforce Heroes [gear] (both playable on )
- Modern mechanics through upgrade trees and the power of choice in equipment.
- The rough outline of the game is that a country comes under attack and you play as one of the soldiers defending it and eventually lead the counter-attack to stop the war as quick as possible.
What we offer:
- We want to build long-term relationships with our collaborators for multiple projects
- Revenue Share of roughly 15% (terms can be discussed)
- Collaboration, you don't only work for us, you work WITH us. This means you get some input on our creative decisions of the game.
- We trust specialists in their field. You have more audio experience than us, this means we will listen to what you suggest.
