Voice Actor Annoucement
Hello everyone, here are the voice actors chosen: https://youtu.be/Iq1fubeyRYs
So this is my game NutShot. Its a class based, fast paced, peanut themed arena FPS. I've been developing it for a couple years now and i recently dropped a trailer for it which i will link below so you can have more context on the game. The chemistry of the cast is VERY important. I need you to bring your best to the table. Although it is a free project i am very open to paying seriously in the future when NutShot releases. I want everyone who will be involved to gain. I want NutShot to have wonderful voice acting and i also want to give a chance to some voice actors who really have what it takes. Lets see what you got! This is a long term project, if you cannot dedicate your time do not submit. Also feel free to improv lines AFTER you've recorded the ones required (dont make it too long). There will be an interview if youve been selected for a role. Also feel free to apply for multiple roles idk if that's already a given but yeah do that. Also if you have different takes of a line put it in! (max 2 per line) BEST OF LUCK!

Hey guys! thank you to everyone who has submitted a lot of you SNAPPED! Like i was genuinely amazed with some of the submissions, you guys did awesome. Now because of the amount of submissions, i will be closing every role except The Marksman, due to lack of submissions. If you know someone with a Jamaican accent, please encourage them to audition. That's all for now!
The Trooper. Born and raised in south California, 22 year old Mike is not the brightest, but hes damn good at what he does, and looks good while doing it too. Equipping various assault rifles on the field, Mike’s a dangerous foe to go against. He considers himself the perfect agent. The blueprint.
So he's a bit of a dick. but a loveable dick. Think pretentious man meets scout from TF2 with a dash of johnny bravo.
All right, all right good game everybody, man i could really go for some matcha or boba what do you guys think?
Relax, RELAX, I have everything *handled* okay?? just let me borrow like $200 and I promise the plan will work... this time.
They're planting a bomb at A, can i get some backup?...... Hello?....Am i muted?
Born straight from the very fucking essence of southern Alabama, 55 year old Hugh, has nothing but pure USA in his blood. He's a cold blooded American. Wielding specialized shotguns that can propel him to great lengths helps with keeping people off his property too. He's not exactly in touch with anything relevant or able to read a room but when you need guns, he's got 'em.
He's a very old guy, He still goes to his favorite 92 year old diner where they make coke the old fashioned way. He's the strongest on the team but mentally hes not all there. He can flip in an instant and doesn't take threats lightly, I wouldnt mess with him.
You dont have to be old for this just sound mature and a little not all there
Character Reference - Pierce Hawthorne, Community (Another great show)
(Character Reference is just giving an example of something that sounds similar, use it as BASIS make The Soldier your own)
Oh get off your high horse, I can still kick your ass without lifting a finger.
Yknow back in my day we didnt have cellphones, we would throw a rock in the sky, try not to get hit, and it was the *most* fun a 23 year old could have.
STAND DOWN OR BE DEALT WITH. I DO NOT TAKE KINDLY TO STRANGERS RUNNING INTO OUR BASE. Oh its just you Philip what's up.
Born in Brooklyn, New York. 24 year old Jack is a tough, reliable, agent on the field. He's also got a bit of a short temper so I'd watch out. The team is constantly pissing him off. Equipping dual wielded SMG’s makes him a dangerous threat on the battle field. Speed, guns, and efficiency.
strong brooklyn accent
If i had to describe his character in 2 words i would say valid crashout.
Hey can we PLEASE lock the hell in? Were getting our asses kicked over here!
Hugh, dont fight him man, we all know you can take him just take it niiiiice and slow and relax okay tough guy?
AGENT COMING THROUGH! WHOS GONNA STOP ME HUH?
Coming in from Arkansas, 34 year old Stu is all the muscle with none of the height. Standing at a height of probably 3 '4, his pear shaped body makes it easy for him to launch himself with his grenade launcher, reaching incredible speed and heights. No building too tall or sandwich too great for this mighty man to conquer.
His voice should sound like a nasaly southern accent with a *slightly* high pitched voice. He talks very clear, man of little words.
Voice Reference 1 - American Stewie
Voice Reference 2 - Dale, King Of The Hill
(Voice references are to give a general idea, make the character your own)
Yous a lost this time, and probably every time after that too,
Mike, i swear to god if i check the fridge and my potato wedges are missing this entire team will feel hell.
I dont need *guns* i got bombs, dude
Coming in from South Florida, 26 year old Dick loves chaos, explosion, and a little more chaos on top of that. With his trusty high powered revolver capable of taking off multiple heads, you don't wanna mess with him. Don't forget his powerful grappling hook that allows him to reach unfathomable heights at great speed.
Strong Hispanic accent but not over exaggerated. Experiment with the speed of lines! He's a fast talker
Voice Reference 1 - Puss In Boots
(Voice references are to give a general idea, make the character your own)
WOOHOO, that was AWESOME!... LETS DO THAT AGAIN (laugh)
Alriight, Up we go!
hey look Im not gay but $20 is $20 man.
The Marksman. Sliding in from Kingston Jamaica, 42 year old Cameron doesn't take shit from anyone. Skilled in his marksman abilities he dawns a high caliber sniper rifle on the field. Hes not the fastest but he makes up for it with his high-tech advanced invisibility technology. Perfect for getting the drop on anyone.
Very strong Jamaican accent. Maybe even a little over exaggerated.
you NEED to know/be fluent in patois for this role
(also if the patois down below is not accurate, just take the general message of the line and feel free to say it how ever you think is best.)
Voice Reference 1 - BUOSS A LEFT
(Voice references are to give a general idea, make the character your own)
Dem call mi di Marksman fi a reason, mi aim clean, mi buss head only, mi always hit mi mark.
Wah yuh a do? Defuse di bomb, it right deh ohmygod i cant with the fuckery.
Mi haffi do everyting roun yah, Mike ta "Troopa" keep mess up pon di field, cyaan have dat no.
The Specialist. 46 year old Haywood is nothing short of a genius. Building elaborate inventions such as his trusty jetpack that help him hover and dash through the air make him a threat to all others. His biggest goal? Cracking the secret to teleportation and universal travel. But thats a little too big for now, so he sticks to setting his enemies on fire with a flamethrower.
Now he technically is a nerd but i don't want to hear a stereotypical nasally nerd sounding voice, he's smart, a genius, a little afraid sometime, maybe a little gay too. He should sound normal, so just give it your best shot at you think the best voice for him is.
If i reset particle acceleromater <-(made up word pronounce however) at the right moment, multiply it by 20 subtract 10 and multiply by 2.5... Yeah i think i got it... We can install chrome on this pc with a linux operating system.
Putting a healing field down!
All that? For a drop of Blood? COME ON, SHOW ME MORE!
The Slasher. Straight from the trenches of Detroit, 16 year old Phillip is a soft lovable cold stone killer. How did a teenager manage to get on a government funded mercenary mutant peanut team you may ask, the answer? We really don't know! But what we do know is he's very loved and he’s the fastest of the bunch and refuses to use any sort of long range weapon, sticking to trusty melee weapons. For style points of course. Not cause he cant aim or anything.
If you think your voice sounds younger or higher pitched (not too high pitched) and your a teenager, this is the role for you!
Philip is soft spoken, but that doesnt mean he should sound like a little b####. Just sounds like a regular talented teenager who doesnt get enough respect around his adult peers. Also tends to ramble and yap a bit.
Man guys, i gotta say working with everyone on this has been great... Even you hugh, even you.
SORRY SORRY SORRY SORRY THIS KNIFE IS *REALLY* DULL I THOUGHT I WOULDVE KILLED YOU ALREADY AND NOW I FEEL BAD
Hey, what is this... some kind of... NutShot? No? Okay ill see myself out then.
