SYNOPSIS
Selene is a young woman who sells tea leaves and different types of herbs for a living.
She couldn’t have asked for a more happier life.
That is, until she encounters a mysterious girl named Angelica.
She is led into the depths of the forest by the hands of the mysterious girl.
There, she finds a big mansion she never thought was there initially.
When she meets the residents: Lucien, Rayne, Blair and Michalis,
she very soon realizes that she has bit off more than she can chew…
and it’s already too late to turn back.
“You’re not going anywhere, my pretty little Rose.”
PREMISE
The story (an otome game) revolves around Selene, who believes she is a normal human when she really is not. Throughout the course of the story (which will be split into 5 acts total), she will come to learn more about her true identity whilst falling in love with one of four vampires that reside in the mansion: Lucien, Rayne, Blair or Michalis. These vampires' backstories were crafted based on various famous fairy tales (such as Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, etc.) with a bit of twists, making this story considerably more darker.

RECRUITMENT POSITIONS
ASSISTANT WRITER : Considering the length of this visual novel and the amount of planning, I would like to open recruitment for another writer to help. I would like somebody who is interested in the story to help with various things: this includes writing mostly, but also editing/proofreading, and idea bouncing and helping to develop the story a bit more as well (as I am not able to do that alone).
SPRITE & CG ARTIST : taken by Itozuuu.
BACKGROUND ARTIST : I'm sure the amount of backgrounds are not so much compared to that of a commercial game, for example. So far, I am counting around 14 general backgrounds. Of course, this count excludes variations. I prefer backgrounds that are similar to the sprite art; soft or hard shaded is alright (preferably soft-shaded).
GUI ARTIST : Although the logo is already being taken care of (many thanks to Mama J for that!), I am looking for a graphic artist who is able to make different interfaces, or screens. Like any other game, the basic screens are needed: main menu screen, preferences, save and load, quit screen + textbox and choices. I am also looking to have a CG gallery screen, possibly with a credits screen as well (the latter is still uncertain).
MUCISICIAN / COMPOSER : Generally, I am looking for a piano + orchestral style of music for the most part. However, any style is fine as long as it doesn't swerve too much from that piano and orchestral feel, which may especially be needed at the theme and emotional/sad pieces of music.
PROGRAMMER : Since I am still in very early development, this position isn't needed in the long-run, but I'm still happy to take people in if anybody is interested in this position. This will be programmed using the Ren'Py engine, and knowledge of programming dialogue, transitions, unlock scenes, and GUI is preferred.
OTHER : If I am missing something, feel free to bring it up; I'm definitely flexible to any service you are willing to offer.
FINAL NOTE
If you are interested, please make sure to send me appropriate samples (unless you are applying for the programmer position; I trust that you will have the knowledge necessary). They don't have to be from previous games, but they should reflect your style of writing, art, etc. Please note you will not be receiving any monetary payment in exchange for your work because this project is free. Thank you in advance for your interest!
To apply for one or more position(s), please send an email to destinylumia@gmail.com (I ask that you try and provide an appropriate subject as well when applying).
