Take A Break | Indie Game > Cafe Simulator with a Story

Project Overview

>>> Please only apply through the official application process on the site. Any comments asking for a DM or anything of that nature will be deleted and will cause you to be blocked. Thank you. <<<

Take A Break is a simulation game with heavy story. The player will come into possession of small, rundown cafe in a world where automation is valued above creativity. All businesses are owned and run by bots/AI, leaving consumers without many human interactions.

This is a game about the human experience in the face of AI becoming more and more present in our everyday lives.

Fawn Games is an indie dev company with one game dev on board (myself, writing this!). This game is a passion project for me and I hope you'll stick around and audition for our project! We plan on running a Kickstarter soon after the casting call concludes to pay all the team members (the goal is to have a demo to play for the Kickstarter!). Everyone will receive the same amount of pay.

As we are offering pay, all auditions must be 18 or older. Discord will be the main method of communication, so we ask that if you don't have an account, to please create one.

If our Kickstarter is fully funded, we will have an additional goal for voice actors and will open a second casting call.

Please send a DM if you have any confusion or concerns, thank you!

Latest Updates

  • Temporary Hiatus

    Hello! Please forgive me as I'll have to delay the start of the project a bit. I have too much on my plate irl to dedicate time to the start of this project. This WILL still happen, I just will need to extend the date for the foreseeable future until things settle.

    With this, and the fact that we didn't get very many 3D artist apps, I'm also going to be reassessing the visuals/mechanics of the game. I'm also afraid that I don't quite have the skillset to tackle a 3D game quite yet and it's incredibly intimidating as a solo dev. So from now on forward, the game will be 2D. I'll update the rest of the listing when I get the time. Thank you for your patience!

We're looking for 2D artists that can commit to something cohesive with our 3D Artists: a vintage, low poly look reminiscent of a psx style with a softer vibe. Look books and inspiration-boards will be provided. 


We are in need of:

  • Logos and banners
  • Anything for promotional material/game listings
  • UI (Chat box, fonts, season/day/weather cycle, etc.)


There is no current deadline for the project. We understand that sometimes irl stuff can get in the way, and that people have jobs and other hobbies. As long as you dedicate some time each week to our project, that will be okay.


We will be running a Kickstarter after all roles are filled and the team begins development. If the 2D Artist goal is met, all funds raised with that goal will be split evenly among 2D Artists.
