Hello! We're looking for a writer for an indie narrative game called Anumis.

The project is inspired by SOMA and focuses on psychological horror, science fiction, and a world-building narrative. It's still in the early stages of development, with part of the introduction and basic story already written.

We're looking for someone interested in:

- Psychological horror/science fiction

- Dark or existential themes

- Narrative-driven games

This is a collaborative indie project.

If you're interested, feel free to comment or send a message on Discord! (guadaxd)

I might be interested in helping out. At the very least I'd like to hear more. Sent a discord friend request.

Hey about to send over a discord friend request if you guys are still looking for someone!

I am a writer with years of commissioned works under my belt and one manuscript currently queried traditionally. My educational background is mechanical engineering, with additional coursework completed in: electrical engineering, programming, writing and photography a. I have a special interest in Science Fiction and character driven stories (which is the manuscript currently queried). I act as developmental editor for others as well related to psychological realism, motivations and conflict outside of the graphic (monster>run).

I am not a very good programmer for games, but I do have experience programming business applications. I can talk confidently with programmers during the development process when it comes to narrative inputs and "programmatically easy tasks" versus "why are you asking me for this complex event trigger..."

I was creative director, lighting and sound design and more for a live theater from 2016-2025 (theater closed down in October), and I am currently editor for a documentary series looking to get picked up by Netflix. While I don't know the jargon for game lighting and sound, I can definitely follow and create the scenes/work with the scenes visually while writing.
