Hi, my name is Gru and I am the head of Ennoble Studios. I have 2 Steam-published games behind me, 3+ years in Unity programming (C#), 5+ years in IT/software employment, asset store developer...
I am looking for a game designer that is reliable and willing to help with the project from the starting phases. You would be assigned certain tasks relating to game design and would not be involved in writing code. The game will go on Desktop platforms and will be published on Steam. If you are free and willing to commit seriously to something (6-12 months scale) then I believe this is a great opportunity for any designer to start fresh in a supportive and focused environment. I am looking for serious people willing to commit at least 20 hrs/week to the game.
Though a game designer should be well rounded, the game will have strategy and TD elements and I am expecting somebody with solid understanding of these genres.
