Hello Klights!

https://klight.vercel.app

I am the co-creator of Klight Omniverse (K.O.), an ambitious sci-fi project that goes far beyond a single video game. K.O. is an expansive Intellectual Property (IP) that is already being developed across multiple fronts: a digital game, a physical boardgame, books, and an original soundtrack.

About the Digital Game: Despite the massive scale of the universe, the digital game is not a complex MMO that would require tens of millions of dollars to make. It was designed to be a deep Idle / Companion Game (with base-building and management influences similar to games like Foundation). You act as a Captain managing your Mothership (using a modular Hex Grid building system), dealing with a rich player-driven economy, and sending your crew and heroes on missions across the Galaxy.

The Vibe and Story: The universe draws inspiration from Star Wars lore, but we break away from the classic "Light = Good / Dark = Evil" cliché. In K.O., the Golden Path (Order/Light) and the Umbral Path (Power/Shadow) are not enemies, but complementary energies necessary for the balance of the "Flux". The true enemy is something far worse: The Rupture — a cosmic corruption that devours entire star systems, forcing players to fight together so they aren't consumed.

Current Progress (We are past the idea phase!): We are not just sitting on a Game Design Document (GDD). This project is already a reality:

  • The digital game is actively being developed in the Unity engine.
  • Several backend features, databases, and table systems are already 100% operational.
  • The lore, economy balancing, and mechanics for the 6 playable factions are finished and crystallized.

Who I am looking for (2 Key Roles): I built the universe, the code foundation, and the core design, but I need two essential co-founders to complete the crew:

1. Art Director / Lead Artist I need someone to bring to life and define the official visual identity of the K.O. franchise. You will be responsible for:

  • Creating or leading the creation of art for the digital game in Unity (UI/UX, environments, modular ships).
  • Developing illustrations and concepts for our 36 Unique Heroes and the 3 Races (Humans, Prytos, Brugs).
  • Creating stunning visuals and assets for our upcoming physical Boardgame.

2. Marketing / Business Partner I need someone with market and community vision to:

  • Help find the ideal fit and prepare pitch decks for Investors or Publishers.
  • Plan and execute Crowdfunding campaigns, with a major focus on Gamefound for the launch of our Boardgame.
  • Build our community from the ground up (Discord, X/Twitter, etc.), connecting players to our story.

Compensation: Revenue Share and/or Co-Founder Equity for both roles. I am looking for people who want to co-own this IP by my side.

If you love sci-fi worldbuilding and want to lead the art or marketing of a promising franchise, I invite you to visit our official website to grasp the true magnitude of the project: https://klight.vercel.app
