TL;DR: Solo backend/AI dev with a playable multiplayer survival sandbox in Godot. Systems work; it looks like programmer art. Looking for 3D artists to bring it to life. RevShare, a few hours a week.
What’s already built and playable:
• Authoritative multiplayer server, targeting ~100 concurrent players per server instance
• Custom anti-cheat: speedhack, aimbot, duplication, ESP/wallhack mitigations
• Structure/base building
• Character spawn, hitboxes, health/damage, armor
• Inventory + hotbar
• World save/load with corruption handling
Engine / pipeline: Godot. Standard Godot-friendly formats (glTF preferred, FBX fine). Blender-native workflows welcome.
What I need help with:
• 3D modeling (creatures, characters, props, environment)
• Rigging (hardest role to fill — especially keen to hear from you)
• Animation
• Texturing
• Icons + UI theming
Time commitment: A few hours a week is totally fine. Looking for steady contributors, not a full-time grind.
Compensation: RevShare. Happy to discuss splits up front based on scope of contribution.
About me: Long-time software developer, heavy into AI tooling. I move fast and have a lot of experience doing so. Strong on systems/backend; bad at making things look good but great at making them work good. The working build is the proof for now — happy to share a gameplay video, a build invite, and code walkthroughs on request.
PORTFOLIO: this is my first project and do not have a portfolio of any kind.
On AI tooling: Willing to fund AI tools that speed up our pipeline (concepting, texture gen, retopo, etc.) where they genuinely help. Final assets still come from you — AI is leverage, not a replacement. Open to your input on where it fits and where it doesn’t.
Roadmap: Base defenses → resource gathering → map creation → creature taming/utilization → PvP loop.
Revenue plan: Subscription model rather than endless paid DLC, so the game stays maintainable long-term. Designed for working adults with limited play time.
Long-term vision: Eventually I want AI agents playing alongside humans — to keep the world alive and even the field between hardcore players and people with a 9-to-5.
