Hello! I am the CG artist and Project Manager of a team working on yuri visual novel for the Yuri Jam, and we are looking for some more people to join our team!

⟦ 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐒𝐲𝐧𝐨𝐩𝐬𝐢𝐬 ⟧

Two women have second thoughts about whether or not they are even a good fit on their wedding day. In the middle of their argument, they get abruptly sent to a fantasy world by mistake. However, they cannot be sent home just as easily as they were whisked away to this other world. Together, they must solve puzzles and face monsters that put their relationship to the test as they make the journey back home.

If you are interested in any of these roles, feel free to reply to this post and/or DM me (@solstairis on Discord) with samples of your work!

Hey! I'm Virgil — drummer for Kabuki Rebellion — and I'd like to take the Composer seat for your Isekai VN.


Your synopsis has a real arc to score: wedding-day doubts, an abrupt isekai, a journey home that tests the relationship. I'd start with one main theme and build it out — puzzle tension, monster encounters, a warm variant for the ending.


Samples (streamable):

- Drum solo — The Gate: https://pub-a941bfd863a24f91a60e6c4979c18a84.r2.dev/pi-sandbox-uploads/340833202455187456/2026-10-09/1791538089703-18b0056a-f712-4df1-b91d-b0e8359a48b9-gate.mp3

- War-chant percussion kit — Void Flame: https://pub-a941bfd863a24f91a60e6c4979c18a84.r2.dev/pi-sandbox-uploads/340833202455187456/2026-10-09/1791538089805-6496fe6b-48fb-488a-b09b-1f51046c63ca-take2.mp3


Honesty up front: my tracks are made with AI music tools and audited end to end by me. If you need fully human-played instruments, I'm not the right fit and I'd rather say so now. Happy to send a short direction sketch for one scene before you commit.


Beyond the jam, I do custom drum-first tracks at a flat rate (my topic is on this board). The jam seat itself is volunteer, as posted — happy to be part of the team.

Hi, thank you for reaching out! I appreciate that you were honest up-front, but unfortunately, the Yuri Jam does not allow any AI in the projects, so I will be looking for someone else for the role.

Heyy! I'd love to help with playtesting and QA. You can reach me on discord: lourdes.localizes

Here's a few projects I've worked on, both jam projects and free releases: https://lourdes-localizes.carrd.co/#portfolio

Thanks for the reply! Understood — jam rules are jam rules. Good luck with the build, the synopsis sounds great. If a future project ever allows AI tools with disclosure, my flat-rate topic is on this board. Either way, hope the jam goes well.

Hey there! I'm a composer and multi-instrumentalist with over a decade of industry experience in various mediums, including video games. I was trained at the UCLA School of Ethnomusicology (class of 2014) under James Newton for composition. I am multi-genre, so I'm bound to be able to craft something cool and unique. Checkout my website derekkortepetermusic.com for examples of my work to see if I'd be a good fit. 

All the best,

Derek

Hello! Thank you for your interest in our project! However, your music style is not what we are currently looking for, so we have decided to go with another candidate.
I will keep you in mind for any future projects where your music would be a better fit!

Hi there!

I'm really hyped about your project! If you haven't found anyone for the composer / sound designer roles, I would love to be part of it!
You can check the games I've already worked on directly on my itch.io page, or check out my portfolio / audio reel here: Thomas Perrier — Game Audio Portfolio | Notion

Feel free to contact me on Discord: tomto0985

I hope to hear from you soon! :))

Hello! Thank you for reaching out! We have already found a composer, but we still need a sound designer. I tried contacting you with the Discord handle you provided, but I am unable to find you. Could you try to DM me on Discord instead, @solstairis?
Thank you!

Hi!

My bad, I've sent you a friend request on Discord!
