I'm a web developer by trade who grew up playing FFVI-VII-VIII-IX-X, Legend of Legaia, Alundra, Star Ocean Second Story etc.
A few weeks ago I saw a sale for RPG Maker MV on steam and picked it up. I didn't have much faith in the quality of game I could make with a piece of software I paid $30 for but after playing with it for a few weeks I'm finding out it's really a solid engine that's only limited by my knowledge of JS (did I mention I'm a web dev?).
While I can handle pretty much all the programming tasks, there's the matter of... well, everything else that's involved in making a game.
I have a Google Sheet going with tons of ideas and world settings listed, as well as quite a few mechanics and how they could tie into the game world.
What I'm looking for is someone who can make quality pixel art (doesn't have to be professional by any means, this isn't a commercial project) and POSSIBLY offer some ideas for story, world building and mechanics.
My expectations are realistic. I have a full time job and two young children. I'll probably be giving between 10-20 hours weekly to this project and I would have absolutely 0 expectations of you. Say you're interested, we'll link up, then make art and contribute to the project spreadsheet when you have time.
If I hit the jackpot somehow and you're an artist who ALSO programs, you're more than welcome to help out on game itself as well. You'd need to own RPG Maker MV software and I'll be using Git for source control.
Thanks a ton for taking the time to read.
