Writers Needed for Music-Based Slice of Life

[Raithfyre]

Con Amore is a bishoujo VN set in an Italian music school. It's a slice-of-life game without any fantasy or sci-fi elements, nor any extra gameplay elements. Since 3 out of 5 writers are currently being replaced due to inactivity, and the game's focus on character as opposed to common route, there aren't a whole lot of plot details to note - these will largely be up to the writers.

As such, scriptwriting is somewhere around 0%. However, art and music have decent headway being made, and technical elements such as UI are in the works. For all intents and purposes though, it's safe to treat this as a new project, at least with regards to writing. However, each route is projected to be around 50,000 words. Including common route duties, a potential writer should expect to be writing 75-100k words.

Please note that these are not paid positions.

If you're interested, please comment or notify me via PM. Please include some samples of your writing, as well as a list of any other games you've worked on, if there are any.

The blog contains some extra information about the project, though most of the important details are included here.

Attached is some of our promo art, to give an idea of the game's artistic quality.

Hey, I'm interested in joining your project. Here's my forum post with what is essentially my resume on here http://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewto ... 38&t=23076
PM me if you think I might fit in with your team.

I'd like to submit my application too, though my submission samples aren't nearly as extensive.

Work Samples

Sounds nice enough, it seems like there's a few people asking already, but I guess I'll volunteer as well. http://www.indiedb.com/games/project-dualis Here's a link to the first game I've written. (It's free so feel free to have a look.) There are also some older stories lying around on my DA account. examples:

Thanks for the interest so far, and apologies to those not chosen. We're still looking for one more writer, so if you were considering but haven't applied, please do so.

Do you guys need an Music composer? Message me back or post something here If so! I'm currently free besides school!

(If you are I'll send you some of my music~!)

Bumping this because we're still in need of at least one writer.

Can I help?

[Raithfyre]

Can I help?

Please post some samples of your work, either here or via PM.

[Auric]

I've sent you a Pm, and would be thrilled if you would take the time to read it.

[Auric]

G'day all, just giving this a bump. Several writers have left the project, and are currently looking to fill two positions. If anyone is interested, just bear in mind: I am expecting this to take roughly two years of work, one drafting the routes, and another in post production. If you are willing to put in that much time, please send a sample of your work to either myself or Raithfyre. Look forward to hearing from you.

[Juneberry]

Hiya! I'm quite interested too. I can send you a sample but I'd need to note it will be a secondary project to me (I'll work on it carefully of course, but it won't be priority number one most likely right now...but still high), and I don't know what kind of sample you want. Would you like a script-based sample using a previous script I just happen to have lying around on the web, or should I make a new one with a scenario of your choice?

[Auric]

Any writing sample would be fine, though one written as a VN script would be preferable.

[Auric]

Just an update: We still have one writing spot left that we'd really like filled. If the offer of hard, stressful work with no possibility of pay sounds like your kind of thing, we'd love to see your application.

I'd love to help you! I have a lot of free time as of late and would like the extra writing practice.

Here.

Do you know?(Turning back)
I love you.
How you laugh, bringing butterflies to an empty void
My heart pounding against yours
Do you know?
Your eyes and mine meet in equal passion
The light you share with all.
Alone at last
Am I special?
The girl at whom you stare
I see her every day.
The anger of falsity
The burn of jealousy
Her hands entwined with yours
I stand in the background
I hate you.

(Turn back)

The dark object in her hands was once a magical girl. Once contained a soul gem just as she did now. Despite that most people would either view the object as a tool, or simply view it with disgust, the sapphire eyed girl felt neither. Instead, she brought the darkened article to her lips, and kissed it lightly. With a soft apology directed at the fallen magical girl; she placed the grief seed in a large cream colored pouch at her side. As she moved her hand away the moonlight caught a glint on her naval, where her soul gem rested. The pure white jewel shone brightly; untarnished.

I don't have many examples online that are original for copy-write purposes, but these are some of my newer works. The last two are older, but still generally how I write(unless specified to write differently). I was also recently published by creative communications(poeticpower.com).

If this doesn't give a very good idea of how I write; I'll gladly write to a prompt.
