Extremely fast progressing project looking for additional talent! (pirate themed Action RPG)

StellarBE

Rebel Camp Games started out with me as solo developer who made ARPG Emberheart and released survival game Forests of Augusta. Now we are a core team of 2 people working on a prototype for a pirate themed ARPG called Oceans Dark: Curse of Mithra. We have made a lot of progress in just 3 weeks time. We aim to have a prototype done in 2 months, where we will go to possible investors/publishers with. I have rich family members who’ve shown interest in funding the project. And then there’s other funding options like kickstarter, epic dev grant, Belgian Game Fund Organization, etc…

Here’s a gameplay video of the first testversion of the Vertical Slice that was done in just 3 weeks time with a core team of 2 people!!
