Entitled is a young adult simulator in a modern medieval fantasy world, where it's up to you whether you save the princess, rob a bank or become a real estate mogul. But just like in real life, you will have to figure out most of the things on your own.
State of works:
We're Early Access - ready. That means the game is playable from start to finish, has multiple endings already implemented, all the art and UI is done and is just missing some secondary/filler content that would further improve the product.
The Steam page is fully configured, the copy is written, achievements are implemented and a stable build is uploaded - all that's left is to make it visible and start gathering wishlists or even start selling it.
The Team:
Five core members and six collaborators. Work done mostly after hours for the past few years with a lot of sweat equity poured into it.
What we need:
We need a very active, creative and passionate person to help draw attention to the game. We have done almost no marketing. We don't have a website or social media presence. If you like the project and have an idea how to generate some buzz around it, you'll fit right in with our small team. Some experience in the field would be ideal.
The deal:
It's an ambitious after hours passion project. We can't offer a salary, but we're happy to offer revenue share. In this case, you will have a very real impact on the success of the game and that revenue. The product is pretty much ready to hit the market, so at least you're not risking pouring your hours into something that will never happen.
More about the project:
You come from Nayas - a tribe famous for its fierce warriors. You arrived in the Tabehoudai Kingdom to save it from the evil Ganomort. You defeat him. The king is relieved. The princess cheers. You're about to be announced the hero... And then you wake up.
It’s your graduation day. You have no money. No roof over your head and a degree in Management that apparently isn’t even enough to get a job at the farm. Joining the Heroes Guild doesn’t seem likely anytime soon. Will you be able to break the 9 to 5 loop and become a hero? Will you rebel against the reality that seems to be designed against you? Or maybe you’ll find solace in calm repetition...
Entitled might feel like any other retro-jRPG at first, but that couldn't be further from the truth. Sure, you can finish the game by defeating the evil Ganomort and rescuing the Princess. But there’s countless ways to go off the beaten path… and not one of them is obvious.
The world of Entitled is a [b]quirky mix of fantasy and real life[/b]. Modern economic themes blend with a medieval fantasy setting. One moment you’re delivering swords for the blacksmith, hoping someday you will own a sword of your own and become a proper hero. Shortly after, you pay taxes and attend lectures on supply and demand on the job market. All that to [b]figure out what to actually do with your mediocre life[/b].
If you want to beat the game, you have to first confront your biggest enemy: the misguided notion that you’re special.
Features!
- An economy that feels uncomfortably familiar.
- Whole hidden storylines, areas and dungeons.
- Hundreds of more or less obscure pop culture references.
- Two combat systems, even though they don't really matter.
