[CLOSED] Join us at Isekano, a dating sim/visual novel! Commission & volunteer writers welcome

What is Isekano?

Isekano is a mobile dating sim where you win over your heroine’s heart as you chat with her throughout the day and meet her in real world locations. Don’t be late!

Screenshots: Messenger feature, geolocation map, some heroine designs

There are two primary ways in which the story is advanced:
  • Messenger chat: The player receives texts periodically from the heroines, which the players can respond to by making a choice. It is similar to Mystic Messenger in terms of the presentation (minimal narration).
  • In-person meetup: The player may encounter the heroines on the streets, or the heroine may invite the player to meet up.

The task at hand

We are working towards a demo right now with an estimated word count between 5000 to 10000 words. Our timeline is somewhat flexible, but we aim to have the writing completed in 4 weeks.​​

We have an interesting cast of heroines who each have a general description and history so far! This is an opportunity for the writer to add their creativity to build upon the characters.


Who we are looking for

Our ideal writer will be both experienced and passionate about dialogue writing for visual novels or story-driven games:
  • Able to express romance elements that resonate with a male audience
  • Able to get players to fall in love with the heroines
  • Writes succinct but engaging dialogue conversations
  • Skilled at making readers want to find out more

Compensation

We are a small indie team and have a limited budget at the moment, but are open to discuss monetary compensation that works with you.

Volunteers are also welcome, particularly for those looking to build up their portfolio and be credited within the game!

Why join our team?

Join us on our mission to bring 2D waifus to 3D life! We are striving to innovate on the visual novel and dating sim genres, and invite you on this journey with us.

Our project is still in the early stages with a small, but cohesive team of experienced game developers. We value your ideas and contributions towards shaping the future of Isekano!

Hey! Was wondering if you found a writer, as I know the post is a bit old and you had a bit of a deadline set. Your game seems really interesting and I'd love to be a part of it.

If not, and you'd like to talk more you can add me at Wendyy#7171 on discord.

I've got experience writing romance, dialogue, story, planning, and many skills that would be useful. I can provide samples upon request and we can discuss compensation. I have a few finished visual novels, one published for a recent jam. (I'm not looking for much, mostly exposure, but a little compensation would be nice too.)

Thanks!~
