This thread has been a long time coming, at first I was only going to develop this game by myself with the help of an old member RiseEvil (who made the Sock battlers & busts for me) but now it's reached a point where if I don't get a bit of help or a team to bounce ideas off of, I'll be stuck and progress will be too slow for me.
This project started out as an inside joke with this community but as I progressed with the story I started to change things around to be semi-serious. The environment of the game has become unique in its own way and after not working on it for a few months, I have finally come back to it. When I first opened it up this morning and play tested the first 15minutes, I was amazed at the work I have put into this project and I got very excited because it had it's own theme and fun atmosphere that can't go unnoticed.
If you want to learn more about this project check out the original project thread here: https://rpgmakermv.co/threads/sock-quest.360/
The main theme and story is as follows.
Now, the main reason for this topic will be to gather some dedicated or semi-dedicated RM developers to help me out with my project. You don't need to be available 24/7, in fact, you can pretty much help out whenever you feel like it, I will simply assign you a job or give you a list of things that need to be done and you can do them in your own time and pick and choose what you'd like to do to help out.
Jobs Openings
Eventer: 1/2
-- Eventers wil be required to help with NPC's , Main/Side quests, and of course general mechanics of the game.
Database : 1/2
-- Most of the database is finished, but I still need someone to help with Skills, Enemies, balancing & of course animations.
Writer: 3/3
-- The story is still a work in progress, and though I have most of the first chapter completed, I will need general help with side quests, grammar, spelling, & personality of dialogue etc. As well as some people to bounce ideas off of, for motivation and inspiration.
Artists 0/2
--This one may be a tough one to fill, I understand the amount of work required for an artist to make sprites, & battlers etc. What I need in this department is Sprites, tileset editing, battlers, and re-work/ re-touching of current battlers/busts etc.
Musician 1/1
- Create some amazing music for the projects world and characters, I love music and good music really brings the game world alive. When I develop games I'm very focused on atmosphere and nothing says atmosphere like music.
Organizer 1/2
I know, this usually is not on the list when recruiting but I have done enough project's over the last year to know that having someone looking at the project as a whole is a much-needed asset and is a big help to any project. Your duties will be to look at how the game progresses, the difficulty and balancing of the game. Does the story flesh out properly? is it too quick? too slow? You'll also be making sure everyone helping out with the project has jobs to do and no one is doing someone else's job. You will work with me on every step of the project, basically my conscious and motivator.
Beta Testers 4/4
Beta testers are required to look through every nook can cranny to find possible bugs, tile passability, and generally giving advice of the current state of the game.
Now, I don't have $ of any sort to give you but I do have a rather large skill set and am willing to offer you free support and help from me anytime you need it for any of your projects for as long as you help me out in my project. I can provide you with advice on techniques, mapping, eventing, plugins etc.
What I can do for you:

The main theme and story is as follows.
An ancient stone named “The Stone Of Ve” has been stolen from Sockland, a man from the land of Weoly gained access to this land somehow and has stolen the magical stone and brought it back with him. The Stone Of Ve has the capability of creating life in Sock Land, but in the land of Weoly it only has the ability to create life from fabric, unfortunately for Weoly, the abundance of socks is rather large and This man who stolen the stone did not hesitate to create life from the fabric the moment he returned, now there are socks running rampant all over the land.
You will play as Tyree Kinston(Sock Knight) who has no idea of his adventures to follow, he is a forest boy, born and raised by his two parents to survive in the forest. He has learned many skills, his parents trained him to be an expert in Identifying flora and fungus, along with combining potent ingredients to create strong elixirs and tonics but how will he handle a horde of socks?

What I can do for you:
- I can develop a plugin for you(depending on type and size)
- I can give you help with your current plugins, including compatibility fixes.
- I can make a "Forum Badge" to give you for simply helping me out with my project. (Still pending, need to ask @Xyphien, if this is okay
- More to come. (Just need to think of what else I can offer)
