Need a CG Artist - Castaways [GxB]
Posted: Tue Sep 19, 2017 12:20 pm
Hi all! 
I am a newbie here, have just finished writing and coding my first ever VN. I would like to ask if there is anyone out there who is willing to help by making me some CGs, as I can't draw to save my life?
The project is called Castaways. It's a GxB VN where you play a newly-graduated journalist about to move to Japan. On the plane, she meets four men (out of six available characters - you get to pick which four on each playthrough). The plane crashes, and you end up ashore on a tropical island, along with the four men you spoke to and one evergreen character. You and the rest of the survivors must gather supplies, learn more about the island you have found yourselves washed up on, and find a way to send a message to the outside world - but beware, because there are animals lurking in the jungle who are none too keen to have you on their territory!
It's a fairly simple game with obvious route choices, but the fun part is in the replay value, picking different combinations of guys to land on the island with - there are also crossroads within three of the routes, one of which will unlock a secret ending for that character, and the other two offer very different dialogue throughout the game, so it's almost like you have eight different routes.
I have taken the backgrounds, music and sprites from free-to-use websites (crediting them, of course) but have not yet got any CGs. Since the game has six routes, each of which have three CGs plus one which has a 'secret' ending, it will be quite a lot of work - nineteen CGs. However, I have already written the entire game and all the characters, so if you wanted to, you can play through it to see their personalities and how their routes turn out, and I already have some good ideas about what each CG might look like, and have written out a potential plan, so I can give quite a lot of direction if needed.
I'm not offering any money for helping with this project, purely because it's going to be F2P, it's something I created for fun and I don't intend to commercialise any of it. There is no time frame, other than 'as soon as you can' - I understand it's a lot of work and people have lives!
If anyone is interested please feel free to contact me on here, or send an email to kerrimeyerhoff@gmail.com. I have all the sprites and info I can send across via email.
Thanks for reading!
