Hello everyone! 😊
Before anything else, I want to mention that I speak Portuguese and my English is very limited. I may use a translator to communicate, so I hope that's okay. ❤️
I'm an independent game creator working on my first studio and first game project: Legacy Of The Path, an original JRPG.
I've been developing the creative side of the project for several months, including:
- World and lore
- Story and dialogue
- Characters
- Gameplay systems and ideas
- Maps and environments
- UI and menus
- Game direction
- Visual identity
- NPCs, enemies and other game content
However, I am not a programmer, and this is where I currently need help.
What I'm looking for
For now, I'm looking for someone who would be interested in helping me build a small playable prototype/demo of Legacy Of The Path.
The goal is not to build the entire game immediately.
I want to create a small demonstration that can show the project's direction, gameplay ideas and overall experience. If the collaboration works well and the person enjoys the project, I would be very happy to discuss continuing together as a long-term development partnership.
I'm mainly looking for someone interested in:
- Unreal Engine 5
- Gameplay programming
- Gameplay systems
- Character movement and interaction
- Helping turn the game's designs and ideas into something playable
You don't need to be an expert in every area. What matters most to me is genuine interest, responsibility and willingness to build something together.
About payment
I want to be completely transparent:
This is an unpaid/volunteer collaboration at the moment.
I currently don't have the financial means to hire a programmer or pay a monthly salary.
I'm not looking for someone to complete a paid freelance task. I'm looking for someone who genuinely wants to collaborate on the project and potentially continue with it if we work well together.
The prototype would also be intended to help me present the project and eventually look for possible funding opportunities. However, I cannot promise that the project will receive funding, so I don't want to make promises that I can't guarantee.
About the visual work
I also want to be transparent about how I create the project's visuals.
The characters, world, designs and concepts come from my own ideas and drawings. I often start with hand-drawn work because I don't have strong digital-art skills, and I sometimes use AI as a visual refinement tool to help reach the style I'm imagining.
I don't want to hide or misrepresent this.
A little about me
This is my first game and my first studio, so I'm still learning about the technical side of game development.
My strongest area is the creative side of the project. I have spent a lot of time developing the world, story, characters, systems and overall direction of Legacy Of The Path.
I'm looking for someone who can complement that side with technical knowledge and help turn the ideas into a playable experience.
If you're interested, I'd be happy to show you the project, explain the prototype I have in mind and talk about how we could work together.
If you're interested, feel free to reply here or contact me. 😊
