New dev with concept looking for a team

Hey! My name is J. I’m working on this short game called Player Escapes the Dark! for the 2025 Scream Jam. 

It’s best described as a multidirectional shooter with elements of psychological horror. Think Asteroids x IMSCARED. The story follows a man trying to wake up from a nightmare where he is tormented by physical manifestations of the dark.

I’m looking for teammates to help with the coding and pixel game art. I can take care of the writing, animation, and music. (If you have experience in any of these as well, I will welcome the help. I’m still fairly new to game development.)

There is no need for you to be an expert on anything, just looking for some help.

Hi! Can I join?

I use the Unity engine and have extensive coding experience. (recently working on the R.E.P.O. mod alone)
On weekdays, I do not have much free time due to university preparation, club activities, and schoolwork. (if something important comes up, I’m usually available after 9 PM)
On weekends, I have much free time unless there's something special planned.
English is not my primary language, so I might not be good at it.
I'm very familiar with IMSCARED!
I’m also good at syncing music to rhythm. (not really related, but just in case it’s needed)

You can reach me on discord: lego_077

Of course! I'm not too familiar with the 2D engine in Unity (I usually use GameMaker to animate), but would love to see how we could use it. 

I'll reach out to you on Discord, very excited to get this started

Hi! I really like this concept, I'm an aspiring programmer and would love to join your team if you still have open spots!

I am familiar with GameMaker, as I have made a prototype of a binding of isaac style game for my school's final project there, I'm still very new to the scene and would like to enter a gameJam like this one but have no skill in asset making, I have a lot of free time as I just finished school and am looking for a next step.

I love IMSCARED aswell! Great psychological horror game, and the gritty graphics really add to the atmosphere!

Hit me up if you have any spots for me! Thanks
