    Exclamation Looking to make a video game. Help needed

    Hello hello names Jamarrie and I'm making a video game. currently I am working the art work and music for it ( and it's taking awhile )but while I'm doing that I figured I should learn how to make a game in the first place. However I'm stretching myself thin right now so I'm look for help. I am currently looking for musicians and people that make the game...welp a game. Right now I'm broke and just trying to make a demo ( just so people can get a feel for the game before real thing )so that's non profit but the real thing I pray will be able to make money

    What do you want

    Musician
    Programmer I don't know if you'd call him a programmer but Khact [link] said I might be able to borrow his game engine (so crossing my fingers)
    Grammar and Spell Checker :iconladymurasai: LadyMurasai said she'd help out
    Voices (not really necessary )
    Advertiser

    *Sadly I don't gotz no money to pay you so if you don't want to help I understand. If that's the case I will also accept any advise you are willing to give*

    Details

    -What kind of game are trying to make?
    An rpg with a twist (but in all honesty what rpg isn't?). If I had to say what kind of RPG it is like I'd say "Criminal Girls" [link] but without the whole "torturing little girls who've been sent to hell" thing that people for obvious reasons frowned down upon

    -I need a feel for the game what's the inspiration for game?
    Blazblue, Persona, Skullgirls, Criminal Girls, Marvel vs Capcom, The World End with You, Devil Survivors

    -What kind of music you looking for?
    I'm look for music similar to Skankfunk (from Air Gear), Skindred (my favorite band), Shoji Meguro (from Persona).

    -You gotz no money baby, how would we make profit?
    Right now I would just like to make a demo version of the game, the plan is to make that get people interested then go to kickstarter to get donation to make the full version of the game and hopefully make some profit

    *I've been saying making a demo but the demo will be able to stand on it's own. The demo version of the game will be the equalivent of an arcade mode. While the full game will be the whole package*

    Sorry like I said I got no money so I couldn't pay you. If you don't want to do all the work for no pay I can understand. But if you have any pointers or advice I'd very much appreciate it

    You know exactly why what you're requesting is absurd and almost insulting.

    There's a better sub forum for this post. But I'd suggest trying gamedev.net and indiegamer.com forums as well. Newgrounds has an audio portal too with tons of music, and what's that soundcloud got musicians I think? Good luck!

    there's nothing wrong with asking for help beside it's not like I have anyone in real life I can to turn to

    No pay no gain... Pay or bye, got it?

    In real life sure, it's pretty easy. Online however, it's a little more difficult to tell cause you can't tell tones (you know cause it's just words and all )

    @jam Looking at your posts I can tell that you have not put much thought into such an undertaking. First off you have not even made much research into the actual plan or design of the project instead you just full on said I want it to be made similar to game X or with the qualities of Y, Secondly you have not even made enough research into potential engines to use and there are tons of free engines which you can modify to your own liking and use. Thirdly instead of going to some sort of indie game development community you came to an art forum and instead of learning the ins and outs of such an undertaking and you just came to an arts forum simply just asked "who wants to do my work for free?". Seriously go do your research, write a full on documentation and if you can't offer pay for work then just learn to do the stuff yourself. If you want to develop something for free your better off looking into a modding community like moddb for example.

    modding community? mmm~ok I'll give it a shot
    Of course I don't know anything about it, that's why I ask for it. Plus I asked here cause artist are here and I'm an artist. I thought I'd be easier if I just ask people I have some common ground with(And I thought I could also make a couple of friends out of it too).
