FREE REQUEST - Jennifer's Nightmare (Short Notice)

Engine: RPG Maker MV

Synopsis:
Jennifer’s Nightmare is a supplemental project to a larger game I’ve been working on for a long time. I came up with the idea for Halloween, so this is a horror game based on an action adventure game.

Jennifer is in a strange world and has lost her memories. While trying to reclaim her memories she found herself in a thick forest during a downpour. She seeks refuge in a cabin and reflects on all she’s been through. She’s beginning to lose her way and having doubt she will ever reclaim her memories and find a way home.

When she wakes up in the middle of the night disturbing things start happening and she finds herself in a living nightmare. Throughout this journey she will discover many things about her, and her past, as she tries to get back on the right path to find her way home.

Quick Note:
I need to get this game finished up to chapter 2 by October 30th so I can present it to my mental health group. If I decide to pick up work on it again for next year or the years following I'll make a new thread for the full project.

What I need:

• Voice actors: I need voices for at least 5 characters. The main character is being handled by @Kaeki. She's doing an amazing job from the samples she sent me. There is also a man that guides Jennifer, the main character, and two more characters that have short screen time that sound like kids. The last one I'd like to be a collection of voices or a reverberation of a male voice. I'll provide a link to the script written in Google Docs (still a wip).
• Sound FX: I want to add footsteps into the game. Yanfly made an amazing plugin for that but I don't have the SE I need. I tried recording sounds of grass and wood, but they didn't turn out good and I need more than just those two. Single steps is preferable. The surfaces I need include: wet grass, wood, stone/concrete and metal/grating. Edit: I forgot I also need carpet.
• Graphics: The climax of Chapter 2 will have Jennifer confronting an evil entity. I plan for the entity to appear as a large figure appearing from the bottom of the screen. Therefore he will be hidden from the shoulders down behind the floor. As for his appearance, think of the character that the band Disturbed uses often. A face hidden under a hood with glowing eyes and a big, jagged grin. I'd like to be able to animate the face to show different expressions.

Here's that link to the script:

It has better, more in depth character descriptions.

My part: I'll be putting everything together. For this short version of the game there's not a whole lot left to do. Mostly I just need a few resources to finish it up. If I decide to continue it next year I'll make a new thread and get the community more involved.

I really hope I can get some help on this short notice. I'll understand if no one will be help with such short time. Thanks in advance for any help or advice.

You know... I hope people bite! Wonder if I can trade my spriting/art for exchange of voices :unsure:

Anyhow, Kaeki, destroyer of tiramisu is here too in support! ;):thumbsup-right:

@BrittanyAnnPhillips has submitted voice clips for the spirits. With @Kaeki working on Jennifer I still need volunteers for Virgil and Charon.

Thanks for the help and interest everyone!

I've got the script finished until I make the final scene of the game. I still need actors for Virgil and Charon. I'm also still waiting for takers on the the footstep se and the graphics.

Just thought I'd post an update.

@Assassin534 has stepped up for the role of Virgil and showed interest in helping with Charon. @TheRaidTrooper has also showed interest in helping out and I gave him the go ahead to try Virgil as well. I'm not sure how many voices I'll need for Charon but I have realized that it will take some massive coordination to get all the voices to synchronize. I believe in everyone and thanks for your support!

I tend to go to Sound Bible for royalty free sound effects. If you are having trouble finding just the right sound, or have problems recreating the ones you want, you can look there. They give you a whole list of different sounds that match whatever you search for. I put in footsteps in the search box and found one you might be interested in. It is called "Footsteps" and it is third from the bottom, fourth from the top.

Is there anyway I can contact you applying for one of the kid roles? I'm twelve years old, funny, cheerful and kind. I'm trying to start in the voice acting/acting industry and thought this would be some good practise! :):thumbsup-left:

I've been on a bit of a hiatus recently. Low data and some personal issues. I have a countdown timer for the deadline and it shows about 8 days remaining. I'm not sure I can get all the files in and put them in the game. Sorry @Kaeki, I'm gonna have to trust your judgement on speaking your lines correctly.

@benn, I'm sorry but the kids' lines are already finished. @BrittanyAnnPhillips filled those positions.

@emilywake, I took a quick look through the site you showed me but those sfx weren't suitable. @D.ray said he could make the sfx for me. Thanks for showing me the site though, I might can get some use out of it for other projects.

I have given @Assassin534 the go ahead to cover Virgil's lines. I forgot to tell him about recording Charon as well. If you're reading this please give Charon a try as well when I get his lines wrote up!

Speaking of Charon, I'd like to get at least 3 voices for him. My plan is for each va to record the lines, let me see who did it best and get the rest to rerecord like the best actor. I've never tried to get multiple people to synchronize before so if anyone has a better idea let me know.

I guess I don't have any takers for the graphics I need. I'm fairly decent at Gimp so I might could whip up something simple to make the scene work.

I've only got one scene and the end credits to make. I'm gonna start on the final scene after I post this and update the script to show all the lines when I finish the scene. I'll make the credits sequence when I get everything from the team.

Thanks so much for all the hard work and dedication to everyone helping me on this project! I'll make an .exe and upload it for everyone just in time for Halloween.

@D.ray has informed me that Charon's voice can be accomplished by post effects of a single voice. Since @Assassin534 has started working on Virgil I'll let @D.ray provide the voice of Charon. Also, @Kaeki said she can do the graphics I need.

I'm usually pretty good at organization so let me see if I can list who all is working on this project with me. If I forget someone please let me know.

• @Kaeki is providing the voice of Jennifer and the graphics for Charon.
• @BrittanyAnnPhillips has provided the voices of Ignis and Aqua. I have her files ready to use.
• @Assassin534 is providing the voice of Virgil. I was a little late getting in touch with him to give him the go ahead because of my hiatus.
• Finally I have @D.ray making the SFX and providing the voice of Charon.

Thanks to everyone for their hard work and patience.

Well, I'm sorry you couldn't use any of the SFX you found for your current project, but I'm glad you think you can use the site in the future. I know there are probably other sites, but Sound Bible is the one I use. Happy to help, and I hope everyone has fun with the project. I can't wait to hear how it turns out.

There was some miscommunication between @D.ray and me. To correct my mistake, @D.ray can do the post processing but not the voice itself. I'll leave the voice of Charon to @Assassin534.

I'm taking a look at discord after this post to see if I can get the team a better way to communicate and share files. I've never used discord before so any advice or tips would be helpful.

Sorry for the mistake and thanks for all the help.

Edit:
I have started a discord channel so my team can get together and communicate more directly.

Here's the link for the channel:

I apologize for my mistakes. While I read the rules for a couple sections (Resource Requests and Recruitment) I didn't read the main set of rules for the forums. I have read them now and I'll strive to follow them.

@slimmmeiske2 I would have been ok with you deleting the second post I made since it only talked about my discord. Since you edited it I'm going to leave it alone unless you want me to make any changes to it.
