Hi, I'm the founder of TimeWizardStudios. We create well-written, stylized adult games.
Instead of posting separate ads for each role, I’ve combined everything here to keep it short and sweet.
You can find out more about our game here:
We’re expanding our team – looking to hire artists, writers, and programmers.
Our game Another Chance has been in development for over 4 years, with monthly updates. The current team consists of two writers, two artists, one programmer, and one social media manager.
Each update adds a quest (go here, pick up the item, talk to this character, etc.), ending with a sex scene. The story is dialogue-heavy, with branching routes for characters and different outcomes based on player choice.
Here is a quick trailer:
Here’s a sample of our in-game writing:
*(please don't apply for the writing role unless you can write at least to this level of quality, sorry but it will save both of us time)*
Writers:
We have a lead writer, so we are looking for someone who can add new quests and expand the storyline, continuing with the in-game writing.
This task is actually pretty hard to find a suitable writer for, because our current lead writer is talented (in my opinion), and a big portion of our game's success is that we have a strong script and well-written story.
To join our team, you would have to be able to copy and mimic the current writer's style and prose, plus be able to match all the character voices.
For the writing our budget is $800 - $1,000 per quest. Usually a writer would submit around one quest per month, but we have no strict deadlines.
We are also thinking about branching out and making new games, but any writer (or artist) I hire, I would want to test their skill through our current workload, before working on new projects.
Artists:
Here’s our sprite sheet to show our art style. If you can replicate this, I’ll send you a more detailed style guide.

This link would also be good to review as a writer, as it will show you all our characters and help you imagine them when you write. We have lots of writing documents that outline the whole plot, story, plus we have resources like sprite sheets that show every character with matching emotion/expression.
Honestly, playing the game would grant you the biggest chance at success at any of these roles, as you can see exactly what we are building, how it works and functions, and how all the pieces of art, writing, and programming come together in the final product. Please ask me for a link to the latest release and I will send it to you.
Programmers:
And lastly for programmers, there are a couple projects I am working on.
I am looking for someone with knowledge of PixiJS and Typescript, as we are building an online visual novel engine.
I am also looking for someone highly experienced in AI and LLMs as there are a couple of SaaS tools I want to build, and one I am already working on right now (a really cool social media management tool).
This is a tech stack that we use for one of our projects:

And lowest on the priority list would be someone experienced in Unity.
I really believe that AI is the future, and I have lots of cool ideas that I want to build integrating it. Virtual assistants, virtual employees, since I run a game dev studio there are a lot of tasks that AI can really help me with, and I am looking for a talented programmer who can help me put all the pieces together.
I know the programming and art sections were much shorter, but these roles are also important to me, so if you read everything and you feel like there could be a spot for you on the team, please reach out.
I’m always on the lookout for talented, hardworking, and intelligent people to join the team.
Contact:
I actually created a server to help facilitate and manage all this. It's called Rolodex Online
It will be a place where writers, artists, programmers, and all kinds of creatives can join and leave their portfolios. I plan to keep this server neat and organized, to grow it and turn it into a useful tool where people can find collaborators and form projects or relationships.
When I tried to do recruiting in the past, sometimes I would get too many messages and get stuck. So sadly, lot of people went unresponded.
With this server, we will track and organize everyone's portfolio, and make sure applicants receive timely responses.
If you've contacted me in the past and I never replied, I apologize, most likely I did not do it on purpose. I am trying to fix my bad habits, I lost a lot of really talented people I could have worked with, and that is one of the reasons I am creating this server. I believe it can grow into a big community where creatives can connect and collaborate.
To apply:
Please join the server and leave a message in the relevant category with your portfolio. We can then discuss rates and I’ll share more resources.
