Scary4Digits: Mercenaries

Posted by flashback on Sept. 4, 2014, 11:37 p.m.

What is a mercenary, and what does it do?

This list is a bunch of mercenaries - freelancers - willing to work on your competition game for a reduced fee (in some cases massively reduced). We're here because we recognize that not everyone has the time, skills, or inclination to do absolutely every facet of a game; So you can hire one of us instead.

Who's for hire?

What if I want to be on this list?

Comment below with your info. Keep in mind that if you're a mercenary, you are ineligible to compete in the competition (i.e. you can't win the prizes for the games you work on, nor can you submit your own game)

No offense uh but in all honesty I don't think anyone here is going to actually pay money for a team member for S4D.

I don't think they will either, but I think that it might be a good idea to keep a list of each others rates for future reference.

I was actually thinking about paying for a music track or two to be made. I sure as hell won't be able to make anything half decent, I don;t really have any disposable income but if I see promise in my entry, I will probably spend money on making it as good as I can.

I'll also second Acid's statement that we should keep a reference of who can do what for how much. Could be helpful when it comes to other competitions, or when someone's really serious about a game project of theirs. Maybe even provide badges based off this?

Blog updated with new people.

As for this being a repository of rates… this is not my usual rate. It's special for the competition. So either this will need to be updated long term, or just not taken as applying to anything other than this compo.

Well yeah, I didn't mean specifically this, but some sort of resource for people to contact us if they need some work done. Nothing huge, just another potential source of income should the chance arise.

I am getting hyped for my and Toast's entry. Looks like I'll be paying for 1-3 tracks and maybe some musical stings, once we get the first art in.
