Hello everyone!
My name is Silavent and I have taken the step to bring a fan project of mine into full production. The game will be made in RPG maker with use of an engine made by a good friend of mine, GT.
This series is meant for mature audiences. Please be aware, topics such as but not limited to: Extreme cartoon gore/death, themes of suicide, themes of abuse, torture/psychological horror, could be or are present in this series. Please be prepared and aware of this. If you are not comfortable with this, no hard feelings and please don't audition.
What is Danganronpa: Rumbling Skies?
Bunri Academy is secluded in a deep forest, with one, small road connecting it to civilization. Every four years the school accepts 16 students, Ultimates, that are the best in their field and nurtures only them for 3 years. Ultimates gain a lot of public hatred for their seemingly free ride through life, but few can ignore the sheer talent they bring to their fields. Mitsuki Kitahama is one such student accepted to this special 16, for her abilities in running her family’s general store. She was going to initially turn down the offer, as she didn't think she’ was noteworthy enough to be considered “Ultimate," but after mulling it over she decided the benefits outweighed the possible cons. Well, they did, at first, but now that she and her 15 classmates find themselves trapped on the school grounds with a murderous hedgehog she wonders if it really was a good idea… With mounted guns appearing outside the gates of the school and the gate locking behind her as she walks in, a killing game is brewing with no way out, leaving every student to wonder who could possibly be responsible. Not only that, but a massive rainstorm has brewed out of nowhere, with no signs of stopping. Even if they make it past the guns, it’s still a long way to go. Hopefully, no one gets desperate enough for escape that they end up playing by the hedgehog’s twisted rules…
For those of you familiar with the series, or active in the community as a whole, this should seem like pretty standard fair! Our major themes for the plot revolve around trust and betrayal, rather than hope and despair like the main series. The main cast was designed with the purpose of making everyone legitimately good people in an unfortunate situation, though of course they're not perfect either. I made this choice for both the emotional impact that comes with kind characters, and to explore how it would change the typical Danganronpa formula you may or may not be familiar with. You can find more specific information on the characters here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ZucgDWHIu7Ywy5qJci9Frf9IGlcKRjt2D1s0ehcMAks/edit?usp=sharing
What's done so far, and what's needed?
Currently, we have a few artists, completed 8-Bit sprites, and a small handful of completed neutral sprites, but we still need as many artists as possible! As an artist, you would have clear design choices to work off of thanks to the rest of the art team, but also have some creative liberties to make the character designs even better, by your suggestion. We currently boast over 150 pages of completed script, meaning we have script lined up for the entirety of the prologue and chapter 1, once assets are finally all together. In addition to this we have a full and talented voice cast, editors, composers and more ready to go, but until we have the art we need it just can't go anywhere. That's where you would come in! We need Artists to really make this project come to life!
