Hello, everyone.

Our dream is to make a mecha VN in the vein of familiar franchises such as Gundam, Macross, and Muv-Luv mixed with comedic value. It’s actually thanks to tremendous fan support for projects like Sunrider that we’ve been inspired to say “why not?” instead of hitting our heads against our monitors.

Well, we need help to complete this as a project of this size is a heavy task for any individual. I listed the staff positions we're actively seeking, so please apply if you’re interested. If you do choose to apply, we must ask that try to stay in contact with the rest of the team. We’re not asking for undying devotion 24/7, but please try to maintain contact with us semi-regularly. We primarily use Skype to keep in contact and we would ask you to do the same.

We plan for this to be a commercial project, hence, the thread. There will eventually be a Kickstarter in our future once we complete a solid demo for the game. This is a major reason why we are using this thread to reach out to potential help. Please contact us with your rates and samples if you’re interested. This sci-fi adventure has become a passion and we wish to bring our cast to life! Although we have voice actors and actresses listed as a need, this is our lowest priority at the moment as we’re simply trying to finish the script and actual game to where we want before we seriously start voice cast, but if you wish to audition for a character, we will list the characters below.

EXALD: Journey of Six - is a VN set in the 26th century in our own Solar System. You live on board the CSS Via Argentum, a massive carrier spaceship. The advents in Technology, Colonization, and Terraformation has granted mankind many marvels throughout outer space. You are destined to pilot EXALD, a machine specialized and tuned for space exploration and combat. The player's choices inside and out of the cockpit will grant them unique skills and relationships to build. We have our sights on the final game to be comparable to novel length or about 20+ hours.

Visit our FAQ!

Who are we? Why a commercial VN? Why so much ambition?

We have branded the team for this project Infinite Notatio. We have been developing ideas and framework under our very own DigiFlux Studios. What makes this project interesting is the High Standard of Quality and Presentation (We wish to put in maximum effort to show our best of abilities). We have quite a story to share and wish to demonstrate an original product. We understand the amount of work and time required which is why our goals are set on this model.

Credit and Compensation
Any member who contributes will be featured in the credits as requested. Compensation is also a large factor as up until now our own effort and work has been generous and free. We do not expect to continue under a free model and hard effort will not go unpaid. I wish to negotiate prices as we expect to hold a fundraiser and grant sales royalties on completed game assets.

Art Style
The art style is 2d similar to that of anime. I wish to capture the lively futuristic setting with a touch of realism. Humanities existence has stretched far between planetary sectors. We wish to capture the new palettes of these modified worlds that stand among the stars.

Characters
Granting a likeness and breathing life into our cast is our top priority. We want likable and surreal feelings during interaction where your expertise makes the call. Your decisions play a key part in the strategy and morale of those under your command.

Rating
While we wish to include an unfiltered experience our initial goal is present the project to Steam Greenlight. The complete game is a military setting where rank and professional outlook drive our characters. While the exploration continues as do relationships and bonds within the colony-sized carrier Argentum. Allegiances rise and fall as a new conflict wages at the edge of our Sol System, the horrors of war yet to be witnessed.

I know you may not need voice actors in the end but I was wondering how I could audition? I'd be interested in auditioning for Clarity Pilvsky (as a fellow Canadian I feel I am qualified :P) and also for Sarah Lune. Though of course I'd be willing to play any character you see fit for my voice.
