Venus Project - Recruiting

No, this isn't designed to replace Handiba. I still plan on returning to that, but that is still a one man show, and I'd really like to try to put together a game where I concentrate on my strengths and find others that can do the stuff I'm not so great at.

Venus Project is based on a book I wrote a few years ago that I never quite got around to trying to get published. It's told from the first person perspective, and when I was rearranging files the other day I pulled it up, and realized it would make a pretty decent VN. Adapting it will require me to add a second path (there's a pretty obvious one based on something that happens in the book about 2/3 through), but otherwise the text and most of the dialog is there.

Ideally I'd like to find:
A Programmer
A Background Artist
A Character Artist

I'll handle the music, and if possible will see if I can convince some of my acquaintances from VAA and elsewhere to do voices (lots of lines, but few characters, so that SHOULD be doable).

If you're interested, you might want to leave a reply here, but also PM me with your email address so I can send you the novel to review. That way you can decide if you really want to be involved with this :-)

This will probably be a 13+ or 15+ title because it does deal with some political intrigue, there is some violence, and there's some implied adult relationships.

Let me know,
Ewan

P.S. You can read a posted version of the first three chapters online here. I was using a different title then.

It seems like a really well written and thought out idea from what I've read! I'll be supportive of this!

I'm interested in helping out! :3 I'll PM you my e-mail so I can see if I want to be involved. I'd most likely do character art if I was helping out, so if I enjoy the book, then I'll be sure to send you some examples of my art.
