Hello everyone! I’m Ayanna, and I’m currently recruiting members to work on a sci-fi horror Ren’Py project for this year’s NaNoRenO jam.
Project Overview
Synopsis: In a futuristic version of the American Midwest, a monster-hunting reality show contestant must survive the night when they find themselves trapped in a bunker with their fellow competitors – and a new, terrifying type of beast.
The game will combine a text adventure-like format (similar to games like Citizen Sleeper and The Uncle Who Works For Nintendo) with some point and click elements, and the ending players receive will depend on whether they and their fellow contestants survive. The plan is to release a completed game on itch.io at the end of the jam for free with the possibility of further updates and/or releases if the team would like to continue working on the project afterwards. :)

As of right now, our team has four members with skills in writing, sprite/background art, and programming. Below are the positions we’re still looking to fill:
- UI Artist: Create GUI elements for both ADV and NVL mode (text boxes, buttons, menus, and a clock for the HUD) with a futuristic but rugged feel.
Creature Designer: Design and create sprites for one major monster (2 sprites total) and two minor creatures (1 sprite per creature).Writer/Editor: Help script a branching storyline based on an existing outline.Sound Designer/Composer: Create 3 looping tracks ([1] upbeat and dramatic, [2] slow and eerie, and [3] fast-paced horror) and help source other sound effects (ex: creature growls, ambient nature sounds, stabs/slashes, etc.).
