Hey there everyone it's Del here. I have a project that has been on the back burner for about 6 years now and is finally going to become public. We have investors who are interested in seeing this project come to life so we finally have a little backing to make this story. It's a series my best friend and I have been working on for about 6 years now. He was originally the artist for the series but now he has decided to become a co-writer with me. We are currently looking for an artist who can make manga pages for us at a reasonable pace.
We are not looking for a weekly release series we will be making 32-40 page floppies and kickstarting them as I have done in the past and we need an artist who understands how to draw pages as opposed to the now common webtoons format.
We would like to start this project between February and March and work on it continuously for a good while. We have a pitch document as well as a one-shot and concept pieces made to assist the artist in creating a style that we feel represents the series the best. It does not need to mimic the series style as long as it comes close to it.
The Game
Beta Chip is the most popular mobile fighting game in the world, using AI and AR technology to grant players a specific pet of their choosing, to which they can raise at home, or battle in the streets. The pets, known as Beta Beasts can be equipped with Beta Chips to alter their skillset or wield armor and items, often changing the tide of battle if at a disadvantage. Around the city are regulated QR Code Arenas the players can use to change the terrain and aid in their fight against an opponent. When not used for Brawling, the Beasts aid in daily tasks as well, being used in everything from payroll applications to microwave ovens.
