Hello, young and wonderful minds! There has been quite a bit that's happened since I first started working on Quest of Eve! Hm.. where does one start?

I've changed its development into something different. Instead of just me and a group of composers, I've created a team called Boutista to work on the game. I'm still leading the development and story, of course, but I'm gonna have different people working on different parts. The team is somewhat small and not fully assembled yet, but let me tell you that there are positions available! We'll get to that later, though. Also, I'm not going to be the only composer. I will reveal names at a later time when the game is further developed.

Also, I've resigned my position as the background artist. My skill and style is not exactly what is needed for the game and instead, I've got two professional background artists on hold. The first declined the offer for the time being, yet the position is still open to him if he gains time away from other projects. The second is the one I'll most likely welcome aboard. His art style is amazing and professional on all levels. He's almost exactly what I'm looking for. He's also provided a sample which is located at the bottom of this news post.

Attention! Are you interested in helping out? There are plenty of positions available and opportunities to join the Boutista team! If you're interested, then just leave a comment or send me a pm if you wish to keep it private. Below is a list of positions available.

Character Design: Most game projects these days have their own artists who specialize in character design and who draw sketches of objects and buildings that later will be made into animation objects by the flash animator. As an Artist or Character designer for a game project, you must have great artistic skills being able give the game the artistic feel and graphical expression that fits the design of the game. To work as an Artist for a game project, you must be able to draw sketches of characters and buildings; you should also be familiar working with Photoshop or similar programs. You must be able to draw original and creative work as the artists sketches are used to set the graphical style for the rest of the game.

Character Artist: Drawing the character for in-game usage. Animation must be your highest skill.

Production: Do you host a flash gaming site? Let me know and include Quest of Eve!

Web Design: Boutista needs a website.

Voice Acting: This is a rather different issue. Yet, if you have talent, then drop me a line.

Flash Programmer: Have good knowledge of action script and interpreting it into an adventure game? I need you big time!

(I will not release your name or any of your information to the public whatsoever unless you give me solid permission.)

Finally, I'll be hosting a contest later on in the development to give you players a chance to have your work featured in the game! I'll give more information about that later on.

That about does it for this news post.

Join the Zero Resistance! Help the musicians of Newgrounds rest easy as we work every day to keep zero bombing to a minimum and work to find a cure for zero bombing. Send a private message or comment to Bosa if interested.

After a long wait, my new flash game, Quest of Eve, is finally in production. You can expect beautiful backgrounds (by yours truly) with an intense and dramatic storyline. Not to mention the gameplay. I have put a lot of effort in designing what type of actionscript I will be using and what features/freedoms the players may possess. It will be an adventure game with as much detail as I can make it hold.

Keep your hopes high and expect an original soundtrack composed and directed by me.

I'm no longer taking composer requests however.
