Daydream 2
Project Overview
Hi! I'm a professional game developer and I'm looking for a writer to create a story and write the whole script for my next indie JRPG, Daydream 2. It's not meant to be a sequel to the first one but a completely different story with different characters, which is partly why I want to distance myself from the creative process and take more of a director role.
If you have a great idea for a JRPG story and are just missing a dev team to make it happen, now's your chance! Take a look at Daydream 1, it will give you an idea of the style. It's not released yet (coming very soon) but I can get you a Steam key to play the game if you're interested.
In terms of length, Daydream 2 should be approximately the same as the first one: 8-10 hours of gameplay including approximately 20000-25000 words worth of dialogue and descriptions. Note that this contract includes only cutscenes from the main story. Interactable NPC dialogues and optional cutscenes are excluded.
It should be written in the form of a movie script, though it doesn't have to follow the exact standard format, so long as it's clear what the scene is and who's talking.
The deadline for the first complete solid draft is 6 months from now and up to a year for the final polished script. The story is the most important part of a good JRPG so I want to make sure I give it enough time to evolve.
It is paid work. Payment modalities are up for discussion.

Create an original story for a JRPG. Write the whole script (descriptions and dialogues) for the main story (doesn't include optional cutscenes and interactable NPC dialogues). Target length is about 20000-25000 words.
