Hello guys, this is Maru from MardukCorp! We're a small team from Germany who is creating Japanese learning games for iOS and Android devices.
ABOUT
Our current project is kawaii日本語, an app which aims to introduce people to Japanese. Currently, kawaii日本語 is made with a "light version" of a Visual Novel in mind, as you can select one of two characters in the beginning which will guide you through the app, experiencing their story as you learn more Japanese. The player can choose between Riko, the fox goddess and Yuji, a normal high school student.
You can take a look at the Apple App Store and Google Play Store pages from kawaii日本語:

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
We're looking for writers who are fluent in English and have a rich imagination. Currently, the story is already written to the point of introducing Riko and Yuji, but everything after that is open for creation. We put together a base background story and in what general direction the story should go, but we're open for suggestions and ideas from you when you're working on writing the story.
Both stories of Riko and Yuji follow the same plot, but are written from different perspectives.
Summary:
- Fluent in English
- Creating individual plots for Riko and Yuji, following the same story
- Open for new ideas regarding the general story guidelines
RELEASE
The whole story doesn't need to be written in one piece, as we plan to release the story in chapters over time. With this, we can discuss the amount of time you would need to write and how long one chapter would be individually, but generally a 3 month rhythm would be preferable.
PAYMENT
We would pay you per chapter and we're open for talking about paying a fixed sum or per word, depending on your skill.
CONTACT
You can reach us at apps@mardukcorp.de, which we will use as the main way of communication. Please include one or more samples of your previous works so we can get an idea of your writing style.
Thank you for taking the time to read our job posting and I'm looking forward to hear from you!
