A quick summary of the oracle spheres storyline and backstory.
Several hundred years ago, very little was known about the Celestial Beings, who were god-like entities that adamantly refused to interfere with the mortal plane. There were countless of these beings. At one point, the Celestial being of death and the fade ('Fade' is subject to change) known as Mortalitas, incredbly fed up wis lesser position among the celestial beings, decided it was time to spread his influence. In secret, he planned the invasion of the mortal world, amassing an army of fade demons to destroy and enslace the mortals, one and all.The Oracle, another celestial being of immense power who could see the future, appeared to the soon-to-be attacked humans as a serpent. He told of his vision, of the great demons laying waste to everything. Together, The Oracle and the people of the world united forces, and defeated the oncomming waves of demons, even if just barely. As a result of the percieved treachery of both, Mortalitas and The Oracle, the higher Celestial Beings banished both of them to their own respective realms, severing the power that would keep them alive.
Grateful to The Oracle for saving them, humanity's greatest wizards forged many spheres that were tied directly into the oracle, creating an inflow of power, and an exit for his own. The Oracle lives to this day, worshipped as a sort of god, but more as a defender and bringe rof warnings. The Oracle will choose champions to fight on his behalf to keep the people of the world safe.
But this might soon end. The Oracle spheres are being taken one by one, removed from the chapels in which they reside, draining the oracle slowly but surely. It falls onto the shoulders of Ryle, a young man from a valley village known as Greenleaf to face the thief, and stop the world from falling into even deeper darkness.
What I am looking for.
WritersWhy: Because normally my brother would help out here. We have a pretty solid grasp on what we want to do with the story, but I have to handle it myself now for the most part. Getting a few people to help me out with dialogue and the overall plot would be nice.
EDIT: My brother made it clear to me he really wants to be a big part in this. so he's on board.

Artists (For monsters, sprites, tilesets. just about anything.)
Why: Because while I like the RTP, I want to be a bit more original with this thing if possible. I'll survive without, however.

MAYBE Musicians/sound artists (Not necesary for this project, but all the same, it would be nice)
Why: Same as with artists, though even less required. The internet if full of free-to-use music.

What you get in return
I can't give money right now. But here are a few things I can give:- Source code version of the game as it comes out.
- A deeper understanding of the story as I share secrets with you.
- Anything else I can think of that is within my power to grant (and is reasonable.)
What I'm like
I'm a pretty casual guy, though I admit to having some pretty strong opinions. I can also get very depressed sometimes, which tends to slow me down very heavily. When it comes to my projects, I haven't completed many; mostly because I didn't have the resources I needed or the support of a team to back me up. I have a strong sense of humor, but also know when to shut up(though I do miss that one sometimes)
I appreciate any and all people who show interest. You have my thanks in advance.
(FYI: The game is currently in progress, but I am so early on that I could restart if needed, though I would simply rpefer to update and improve what's already there.)
Contacting me is easy: PM. I'm also on steam as Skijarama, which is the contact method I would prefer. I'll be setting up a skype group for this as/if people decide to help.
Again, thank you for your interest.
