Venatus - Team needed.

[bintin]


a BitBait production.

I am posting this thread because I am in need of work for the development of Venatus (an upcoming ORPG game) I am not skilled in programming and I am taking the time in learning it but I will need YOUR help to make this game reality. If you join the team you will be given free VIP membership (in-game) and have the rank of staff. The release date of Venatus is unknown but it has been predicted that it will be released in a few months.

The current positions are available:

Programmer (priority is high)

Pixel Artist

There isn't a specific amount of hours you are required to do but the more you can do the better. Unfortunately payment isn't an option yet (So it's just volunteer work) but in the foreseeable future there may be cash rewards for those who helped in the development.

Bump!

I've just added some of the classes as a way of getting more people on the team

It's most unfortunate. It seems like you could have a really nice project going on here. But without enough information about the game itself, you're not going to get much interest in it.

Perhaps write a checklist of things your game ALREADY has, then write up a list of what will be wanted by both the programmer and artist in question.

I understand that DaVinci did his projects inside of his home, however he did so because he knew they were failures. It's an instant offput that you don't wish to "share" any more information until we're committed to your project.

I'll be back in a few months when the game's out, I hope it goes well for you.

How does one acquire the "Sky God" class?

I took your feedback into consideration and edited the thread, you'll be able to acquire the Sky God class during the first week of the release of Venatus.
