Hello FEU.
For those of you who are unaware, which should be many because there’s usually no point being aware of this, the Lex Talionis fan engine is published under the MIT License, which means you can sell stuff made with it, provided you include the license in whatever your produce.
This, of course, applies to only the engine.
I’m looking to convert Server 72 into something that I could put on Steam. Pursuant to this, I will be seeking the below roles.
Map Spriter (Filled)
Composer (Possibly Multiple)
The game straddles a few different genres which don’t necessarily all work together, so I’m looking for people who are interested in scoring for the below. If you’re only interested in composing for a subset of these styles, message me anyway since splitting the work is a possibility.
SRPG - Preparation themes, battle themes, in-battle conversations, tension themes, stuff like this. I really hope I don’t have to give any examples of games here lmao
Courtroom VN - Think, like, Ace Attorney stuff over Danganronpa. Also, have you guys played Detective Instinct? That game’s soundtrack slaps.
Background - The game is set in an MMO in the future, but I haven’t fully considered what that means in terms of the walking around and conversation music. I’m leaning towards something synthy (a la VA-11 Hall-A or something), but if you have a proposal, hit me up.
Edit note: I should point out I’m actually not seeking anything chiptune or retro-esque here. Ideally anyone who was interested in this would be comfortable well outside the usual GBA composition boundaries.
Icons Person
This’ll need a large number of item and skill icons. This is listed as “Eventual” because I have yet to work out UI considerations and therefore exact size for this, but logic dictates they’d most likely be 32x32 if you want to reach out with that in mind.
Battle Animator
The style expected is kind of similar to the GBA FE style (Attack, Crit, Dodge which all return to a static standing pose), but possibly with the addition of “Being Hit” and “Consecutive Attack” poses. The size will definitely be larger; however this is also pending finalizing the UI design. Tentatively it should be something that looks good in 720x480.
Mapper
I would be interested in seeking out someone who could both make tilesets and also compose maps at least roughly based on the existing map layouts. As before, the tile resolution is 32x32, but, more importantly, there’s no restriction on tile configurations, meaning there’s some liberty to compose fully aesthetic maps that aren’t reliant on strict tileset usage, and I would be most interested in someone who was looking to do something like that.
Key Artist/BG Artist/CG Artist (Possibly Multiple)
Lowkey I forgot about this one until I got exactly one (1) music comm back and was like “wait what’s this guy’s thumbnail going to be if they upload this to YT” so chalk that up to me being an airhead.
These can all be the same person or they can be different people so if you’re interested in doing all or just one of these let me know.
If you’re interested in any of the above, please reach out to me via DMs here or on Discord (my username is just “sigmaraven” there).
Fun fact I learned while drafting this post
You can add the “pme” tag to Requests posts lmao. I didn’t do this because there was an obscenely high risk of genuinely talented people having that tag muted. But, like, I would’ve.
