OneShot Game Dub
Project Overview
This is a project for the dubbing of the game OneShot. I am looking for voice actors that are willing to dub the entirety of the game, including the Solstice run. The only requirement I ask is that you have a decent mic and time to spare.
"The game's protagonist is a catlike child named Niko, who awakes in a dark and unfamiliar house. They interact with a computer, which addresses the player by a name derived from the computer's login name via an external dialog box. According to the machine, the world that Niko currently is in is near ruin, and the player's goal is to guide them back to their homeworld. They discover the world's sun, which is the form of a lightbulb, and use it to exit the house, emerging in a barren wasteland.
There they encounter a robot, which tells them that they are prophesied to save the world. Niko's goal is to carry the sun through its three areas, and place it at the apex of a central tower, restoring daylight; they are currently in the "Barrens". The robot teaches Niko to communicate with the player, telling Niko that the player is a god of the game's world whose responsibility is to guide the "Messiah" Niko. Niko meets Silver, a more sentient "tamed" robot, who gifts them a piece of amber that Niko uses as a guide to the next area.
Now in the arboreal "Glen", Niko converses with the area's residents, including the younger child Alula and older child Calamus, as well as the nature spirit Maize. They then enter the urbanized third area, the "Refuge", and travel down to the city's surface with the aid of a lamplighter. Arriving at the library, they are directed to the librarian George, and get her attention with the help of researcher Kip Silverpoint. After some study, George translates a book of Niko's. It states that the tower, which is controlled by an "entity", can be accessed using three phosphoric items. This "entity" is the same voice that interacted with the player at the beginning of the game, and has limited control of the world. Niko has two such items on hand, and George gifts them the final one.
Niko arrives at the tower, but the player is unable to speak to them anymore. The entity informs Niko that both they and the player have won, and that they will return home now. Niko sees this as anticlimactic, but complies. The player finds a mysterious note has appeared as their new desktop wallpaper, telling them how to reconnect with Niko, and the player reappears, guiding them to the top. Discovering notes made by a mysterious figure termed "the Author", they learn that the entity has grown out of control and became destructive. Once at the top, the Author informs them that they can either break the sun and return Niko home, which would destroy the world, or place the sun at the top of the tower, trapping Niko in this world. Niko leaves the decision up to the player, forming the game's ending."- Wiki

"The Entity appears to be a stern and pessimistic character throughout the game, mostly being hopeless and self-destructive. It is noted however that it has a sense of altruism, deeming Niko as the only real being, and so would only wish for their safety. In the Solstice ending, it is shown to be less hostile but more anxious and worried. Though not completely approachable in personality, it expresses a somewhat neutral company, being understanding to a degree."- OneShot Wiki
(Ominous- Matter of fact and pessimistic) You're already too late. Not much of the world remains. This will be apparent once you go outside. This place was never worth saving. Do you still want to try? Then remember this: Your actions here will affect Niko. Your "mission" is to help Niko leave. And most importantly... You only have one shot.
(Ominous- Matter of fact, almost talking down to the player) I see you've made progress in this world. But that progress stops here. I believe you need a code to unlock a certain box. Well, the code no longer exists in THIS world. Do you understand what this means?
(Flabbergasted, ashamed)They... Told you? When? All of this... Was outside of the protocol. This session was never supposed to happen the way it did... The story wasn't written into my protocol at all.
"Prophetbot is not tamed, limiting his emotions and reactions. However, he does appear excited about the prophecy and fulfilling his purpose. He also seems to have caring about Niko when asked about going home, though he may be programmed to say these things. Because Prophetbot is not tamed, he does not feel lonely."- OneShot Wiki
(Excited) Ah! That lightbulb...! You are here! Welcome to our world, friend! I am most humbled by your presence, yes!
(Hopeful) Just as my prophecy foretold. Yes! You are the savior we have been waiting for! You will be the one to save our world from eternal darkness.
(Confused) But wait... Did you not just arrive here? I was the one who was supposed to inform you of that. So... How did you know?
That is a question for the head librarian. Allow me to call her.
(Matter of fact) Oh, hello. What are you doing here? A living person such as yourself should have evacuated this place long ago.
(Confused) Oh, the messiah. I... do not know what to say. Greeting you was not part of my programming. Have you spoken to Prophetbot?
(Matter of fact) My purpose is to guard this settlement. Even though the residents have long gone, I must remain.
"Kelvin seems to be bound by their programming, and they must fulfill their original purpose of warmth. They appear to be somewhat caring, offering their heat to Niko. However, this may only be due to their cat-like appearance and not Kelvin's nature."- OneShot Wiki
(Hospitable) You have been here for a while...Are you sure you do not wish to stay?
(Matter of fact) With robots, it is alright. We are not like people, we are typically unable to feel loneliness.
(Caring but not emotional) Oh, a cat. Are you lost? Do you wish to join us? You have cat eyes. Your hat is shaped like a cat.
Prototype is an apathetic, cold, and analytical character, when giving information, he does not show any trace of emotion, contrast to Prophetbot, whom seems to exhibit emotion when delivering information."- OneShot Wiki
(Taken by surprise) I... Recognize the light in your eyes. You are the person I am destined to meet. ...Niko?
(Informative) A lot of my memories have been removed for safety reasons. I am going to assume you do not know who sent you.
(Slightly surprised) The exit just caved, didn't it. Sigh. I saw this coming, but this is a bit more sudden than I anticipated.
"Rue, similar to Niko, is kindhearted and caring, talking to Niko in a friendly manner even though they usually don't remember her. After the Equinox Update, she is also shown to be obedient and loyal as she followed the Author's written advice despite such likely causing her loneliness."- OneShot Wiki
(Apologetic) I'm sorry if you are looking for me. But I cannot talk to you. Not now… If... You can find a way to return... Please do.
(At peace) You know... This is the tallest building in the refuge. It's... my favorite place in this world.
(Disheartened, almost sorry) You are prevented from going home by the same... individual... who never wanted to bring you here.
"Alula is a cheerful young girl, often being very calm and positive in most situations as well as making many jokes, in contrast to her brother's timid and concerned nature."- OneShot Wiki
(Thankful) You saved me! Thank you! I was trapped in there for so long...
(Full of wonder) You... knew my name? Wow! The messiah really does know everything!
(Slightly worried now) Oh, right! Gosh... Calamus must be so worried... Can you bring me to him?
"Kip is a lively and eccentric individual who enjoys making jokes and is shown to have enough energy to constantly keep working, as pointed out by one of the workers in the factory. Kip is also generous, letting Niko take her library card to progress further in their adventure, as well as one of her bottles of glitter glue. Kip is devoted to her work, to the point where she doesn't go outside or get to see much of the world because she spends all her time building robots."- OneShot Wiki
(Lightly insisting) You should hold on to that amber, okay?
(Disappointed) Sigh. It was supposed to be such a breakthrough you, y'know? I even based her on myself so I'll KNOW it works!
(Disappointed) We wanted to build a robot that acts like a person, thinks like a person... a robot that isn't bound by its own code. But turns out, you can't really BUILD something like that. Too many contradictions in the code... made her unstable.
"George is the head librarian of the library in Refuge. She has six different personalities that The Player can possibly meet (correlating to the six faces of a die)."- OneShot Wiki
(Joyful) Oh, hello there! You must be the savior! And also the cutest darn thing I have ever seen!
(Informative but still in a joyful tone) Ohhh, that's right, the Tower! I know there's a small room that you can go into, but... I'm afraid nobody knows how to get in beyond that!
(Caring) Aww, poor baby! Goodness, you must've worked so hard to help us! I think you deserve a nap, no?
"The Lamplighter has a bit of a nervous and awkward disposition, often trailing off his sentences. He's a bit self-conscious and startles easily. He is also very dedicated to his job."- OneShot Wiki
(Frustrated, but more calmly annoyed than angry) Come oonnn... Come oonnnnnn! I'm too busy for this!
(Taken by surprise but still somewhat calm in tone) Woah! You're... you! (Ah geez, I didn't think I was gonna run into it... this is embarrassing...) Er... Is there, uh, anything I can help you with?
(More nonchalant) ...yeeahh... I was afraid you were gonna say that... Right now, this elevator is the only way to access the surface. But... yeah, just take a look at it.
"Ling is a kindhearted and hardworking person, who is also very optimistic, additionally, he appears to be extremely nice towards his customers, as evidenced by Niko's visit to the Cafe."- OneShot Wiki
(Optimistic) Oh hey, you're back! Did you manage to fix the elevator?
(Carefully insistent) No, no! It's on the house! The least I can do for the savior, right? Here, why don't you take a seat? I'll go fry some up for you.
(Comforting) Oh, uh... There, there... It's gonna be okay! And... I'm sure you'll be able to save the world! You're a tough kid, you managed to get this far already, right?
(Informative/ slightly confused) Wool, huh? That'll get you... This fine vial of... I'm not sure what this is, actually! Some sort of fabric dye?
(Embarrassed) ...holy smokes! Forgot I was doing a trade with god for a second there... Okay, okay... In that case, I'll also throw in this commemorative T-shirt!
(Thunderstruck) Wait... Oh my stars! That is NOT "a" feather! This is a feather from the late prophet! Probably one of the most sacred items there is! How in the WORLD did you get a hold of THAT? ...Wait, I guess it would make sense for you to have one. Y'know, with you being the savior and all.
"Much of Maize's personality can be assumed from her actions and what's told about her: A kind and protective being with a strong sense of altruism. Even in her weakened state, she guards over the Glen."- OneShot Wiki
(Virtually no energy left) ...Warm.... I have... Almost forgotten... It's so warm...
(No energy, on the verge of collapsing) Th... the vines should be gone now... I'm not afraid of anymore. Thank you...
(No energy, yet somewhat hopeful) ...the sun... I haven't seen it... I haven't felt it in so long... Savior, if it's not too much trouble... Can you lend me the sun for a while?
"Robots are common residents in the world. They are shown to have a wide range of jobs, including transportation, exploration of otherwise impassable areas, as guards or protection, and many others. However, some simply serve as companions or employees."- OneShot Wiki
(Checking for well-being but not emotional) Hello. Do you need any help?
(Matter of fact) Hello, organic person who is alive. The infirmary is up ahead.
(Matter of fact, polite) Hello, person of organic makeup! Welcome to the infirmary. Scanning for injuries... Scan complete. Injuries Detected: None. Treatment required: None. You are good to go.
"Silver is a Tamed robot, meaning she can act somewhat outside of her programming. Due to this her reactions and emotions are more similar to an organic being than other robots in the World. Silver is pessimistic and reserved, keeping a neutral, apathetic expression at most times. When she is first introduced, she gives the impression of a melancholic skeptic."- OneShot Wiki
(Surprised at first, then slightly let down) The lightbulb... So, are you the "messiah"? I expected someone... taller. Or at least someone that doesn't look like a kitten. That's what you are, right? Some sort of cat?
(Informative/ honest) This is going to sound cold, but... I honestly think you are better off just... leaving and letting the world die naturally. The world has been falling apart for a long time.
(Under pressure, physically strenuous life-threatening situation) I'm fine, I'm fine- I can still hold it up, but you two need to- AUGH! YOU! Robot! What are you waiting for!!!
"Watcher has a distant personality but does appear to care about Niko, as they will say Niko should not be up so late if the time is between midnight and 5:59 AM in real life time. This may be attributed to children in general, however."- OneShot Wiki
(Welcoming) Good morning. Good afternoon. Good evening. ...It's very late. But... good day I suppose.
(Your time here is precious. Please, do cherish it.
(Disappointed) ...Well, the time of day doesn't really mean anything now. With the sun gone, the night never seems to end.
