JRPG Video Game Narrative DesignerSearching

We are developing a dark, atmospheric HD-2D action-adventure JRPG with inspiration from Chrono Trigger and Octopath Traveler. Our vision is to create a game with deep worldbuilding, rich character arcs, emotional stakes, and branching narrative choices. We need an experienced narrative designer and worldbuilder to help polish our story, structure the core plot, and deliver a comprehensive plot bible (8-12 pages) outlining the game’s world, character journeys, gameplay-integrated narrative, and dialogue for Act 1 (about 15-20 minutes of opening gameplay). Collaboration and creative input are encouraged, and you will have credit in the full release. You should have experience in RPG or metroidvania narrative design, strong skills in scriptwriting, and enjoy working on indie games with a passionate developer.

Budget range:
Small project ($750 – 1,500 USD)

About the client
I am a passionate indie dev from the Southeast United States who has a love for JRPG games. I have recently formulated a vision for a dark fantasy JRPG game that will rival that of Chrono Trigger. In order for this vision to come to fruition, I need incredible writing talent that has creative expression, worldbuilding, and game narrative experience. I know this listing is posted as a small project which may dissuade a few writer out there. However, for anyone who stumbles across this listing and is moved by this idea, I will give you full creative ability over this idea, credit you in the game’s full release, and continue to work with you for full narrative development.
