ello everyone,

I'm Tudor. I'm 26 and I'm a programmer by day and (I try to be) a game designer by evening.

I really want to build an Android puzzle game that will be both hard and entertaining. I believe that the gaming industry is in a dark place right now (with almost no original content coming out) and I hope that by bringing my idea to life I can offer a breath of fresh air to both developers and the audience.

The game would revolve around beating 10 levels, each posing an unique challenge. The game has a very dark and serious setting, with close to no jokes or sarcasm. I have a few levels running in Unity:

I've been working with an amazing designer from Norway and he helped me by creating some nice Unity assets and the main character's weapon:

I also have 4 people with which I started doing some voice recordings for the different characters. Everything was going great up until the designer told me that he's only a hard surfaces designer and he knows nobody that would be a good character designer.

Everyone is doing pro-bono work on the project, so I started looking for a character designer online. After over 10 failures on DeviantArt and on Sketchfab, I barely managed to find a great artist that's now working on sketching one of the characters. He recently told me that he started working on a new job and his time will be limited. He definitely mentioned that he can't do 3D design and knows no such designer anyway.

And that's my story up until now: 4 months of great development; then 4 months of stagnation.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What I need: 2 3D characters designed and (if possible) 2-3 very short (20-30 sec) and simple animations. The characters are pretty complex since they have quite some details to them.

As mentioned above, I can "offer" you: working on the project for the fun/ desire (to add to your portfolio maybe?); or, if the project becomes profitable, a % of the profits (I truly believe that hard work should be rewarded). If you think this is too much work, then I can offer up to 100$ in payment once a month, but only for up to 4-5 months since my salary will surely feel the difference.

I had to deal with many unprofessional people who delayed me for days, weeks or even months, or started working only to quit after a few days or even worse: flat out stopped responding midway through.

I hope that my post is in line with the rules (read them but maybe I skipped something) and I hope to hear from you soon.

I'll be lurking on this thread, but here's my email just in case: tudors152005 at gmail dot com
