(HELP WANTED) REQUESTING: MAPPER FOR DRAGON FANTASY REMAKE

Hello everyone! Back again for more requesting, as you may (should) have noticed at this point. To get straight to the point (and if the title didn't give it away already), I'm looking for a mapper to, well, map for me! It is most definitely my LEAST favorite part of game creation, and it frustrates me more than anything else. I'd much rather work on battles, dialogue, etc. Basically anything IN a map! But because I usually dwell in the land of NES graphics, this usually isn't a problem for me... but I want to finally move OUT of that, and try something new for a change! However I just cannot get into mapping with SNES-like chipsets, and because of this my skills are severely lacking, leaving me to spend countless hours on a few maps that I usually have to remake a dozen times or so just to get something decent out of them. That, or they're only "okay," and are just there to say there's SOMETHING to explore and play in.

Anyway, yeah... a mapper! That'd be awesome. Everything else I can do, but mapping is something I just dislike. If you'd like a list of games that I've made, just check out my profile! I'm fully capable of finishing a game, and have fully completed several decently-sized RPG Maker projects.

Can I pay you? No. That's out of the question, but you'll still be listed in the credits! And I'm fairly well known (sorta...), so you're name should definitely get out there in the very least. I'm not in any rush, and you'd be able to work at your own leisure, but I WILL be checking up every now-and-then just to see how things are coming along (and as a reminder, if need be!)

What's the project? It's a remake of both my most popular and downloaded title: Dragon Fantasy (the first one). It's being remade using RPG Maker 2000, and is using the RTP-style chip and charactersets that a lot of games before it have been using for quite a while now. Still, I like the style and if people don't like it, well... they don't have to play it! Simple, really.

The maps will not have to be anything too extravagant, but it'd be nice to have some eye-pleasing work in a Dragon Fantasy game (or any of my projects, really) for once. Not only that, but the game its self is not very long at all, and only plays for roughly 20~ hours at most, and most of that is because of the grinding and what-not that was (and still is) in there. Of course I'll be looking for samples of maps you've completed and what-not if you plan to apply, but I'm not very hard to please, trust me!

My overall goal is to do a faithful, up-to-date remake of my very first fully completed RPG Maker game. With over 5000 downloads and counting, I think it deserves it! I just need a good mapper to help fully realize what this game can truly look like.

And what IS Dragon Fantasy like, anyway? Think Dragon Warrior meets Final Fantasy (thus the name!) Or at least that's what I was thinking back when I first made it. It's a traditional turn-based RPG modeled after old-school classics like Dragon Warrior and Final Fantasy 1-3. It doesn't (or didn't, rather) focus heavily on the story or characters, but rather on exploration and fighting. I'm still hoping to retain all of that, except with a bit more emphasis on the story this time around.

Anyway, thank you for reading! If you have any more questions, etc., please comment!

Ephiam.
