Are you willing to work without payment?

Do you have actors willing to work for free?

What voices can you do, and are you willing to work for free?

What would be the theme of 56?

What is Ludum Dare?

Hello, I am a game developer who uses an iPad and Scratch to make games. I have multiple characters in a franchise called Nova Boltstar, but I want to make a kart racing game like Mario Kart. Three other games will be released by the end of 2026. The games have 90s/2000s references and visual Easter eggs, so I hope for a PS1/N64 style game in terms of graphics to match the vibes. Could Unity or Unreal Engine be good for that? Sadly you will not be paid for your work if you are hired. I won’t make money off of this, and because there are Scratch users whose voice work I used in the first game and will continue to use in the future, there is no way to pay them money, so my projects have to be free, and you have to be willing to work on a project not for payment, but for the satisfaction of being part of something amazing. Also, what all could I do to be involved if I am unable to work on a Unity or Unreal Engine game on an iPad? Any ideas on that question? Also, I want to add mechanics and controls that make this game good, and not terrible or shoddy, and I don’t want this to be a blatant Mario Kart knockoff. I want this game to be unique. Any ideas or suggestions?

Contact me here if you don’t want to answer on this forum. Or if you want my character designs.

Is payment required or optional? I am unable to pay.

I don’t have PayPal, and I want to look for free VAs without payment. Would you fit my criteria?

How do I recognize a scam or fake account? I am looking for free voice actors and I want to play it safe.

Hello! I am a game developer who uses the coding website Scratch. With that being said, there are Scratch users who like to voice act. I would like to add voiceovers from Scratch and this website to future games, so I have a few roles that I will currently need VAs for. Because there are Scratch users, there is no way to pay them money, so my projects have to be free, and you have to be willing to work on a project not for payment, but for the satisfaction of being part of something amazing. Not all of these characters exist in the same games, but they’re all here! Here are the types of roles I am currently looking for. Keep in mind this list is subject to change. No profanity, political or religious arguments, or crude joking allowed in your auditions, messages, or in my games. My games should be accessible to everyone.

Do you work with payment? I can’t afford to pay voice actors, and I use a coding website called Scratch, so it wouldn’t be fair to not pay them. If you are willing to work for free, let me know and I might have a character for you. https://samscartoonlot.wordpress.com/contact/

Hello! I want to make a 16-bit baseball game on Scratch, and I want to render it in a way that I can include ball rules alongside strike rules. I have the game area rendered like that of Legend of Zelda in terms of perspective, but I want to add a strike zone so I can include game-accurate rules about balls and strikes. Any tips and ideas?

Thanks

ok

I don’t want my card info or money to be stolen or robbed,

To those who use payment, is your card and money’s security at risk?

Would you recommend I set my games to free downloadables? You can play them if you want!

Hello, do downloads garuntee more plays, do they automatically update if the game is updated on browser, are they redownloadable, and how does this work?

Ready for some balloon-popping, blowfish-saving fun? In this game, point the mouse at a balloon to shoot it! But don’t do this to a blowfish, or they will get hurt and you will get one strike. But if you let the blowfish land on the ground unhurt, you get a bonus! If you get three strikes, the game ends. The game gets harder after a few points, so be careful!

In this experimental DOS-inspired mini game, use the arrow keys to maneuver an airplane to dodge missiles being hurled at you! For every missile you dodge, you get some points, but for every one you hit, you lose health, so be sure not to have your health be at 0%. But if you get 10,000 points, you win!

Hi! I made games on Scratch too! Anyways, do you mind if I use the temple theme for an NES-style game I am working on as long as I give credit?

Did you hear that Tinker Bell was cancelled at Disneyland? There was a rumor floating around that she would no longer be a meet-and-greet character at any Disneyland location. The rumor stated that the Stories Matter team decided that she was too body conscious contstantly pursued Peter Pan’s attention in the original cartoon. Well, that rumor was debunked, and the film was based on a book in the public domain. So suddenly, and without warning, I am working on a Super Smash Bros-style fighting game with Tinker Bell in it! In this game, Tinker Bell will be a butterfly fairy you can play as alongside 19 other male and female fairies who compete for a championship. Do you have ideas for a fairy you’d want to see? You can base your idea on an insect, flower, element, or animal. Make your fairy fighter idea skinny, muscular, normal, or fat. They can be lightweight, normal weight, or heavyweight fighters. Give me ideas as long as they are family-friendly.

Hello! Want to play my game Nova Boltstar? There are multiple types of controls for menus and bonus games, but for the main gameplay, use the arrow keys to go from one blue space to another, and press the Z, X, C, and V keys to fire different weapons that have different cooldowns. There are instructions if you want to learn more about how to play!

Hello! I am a game developer and animator, and I am working on a sequel to a video game of mine which has 16-bit graphics and a 90s/2000s vibe with visual references all around. I want to ask what 90s/2000s media, obscure or popular, you want to see referenced in my upcoming game. Any specific requests? If not, I understand, but feel free to share this reel with your friends and fellow nostalgia enthusiasts so that they can give feedback too! The references have to be family-friendly.

Would you advise using the cheat code that alerts the FBI?

Hello! I want to have singers and songwriters sing songs I made for a game in development, and I need help finding someone who is willing to work for free because I am unable to pay people. Here is the criteria needed besides being willing to not get paid due to me being unable to pay people. Have a good singing voice, be a good songwriter, and have a clean and unexplicit slate of songs and album covers so that my game is not associated with explicit material.

Clever? I only wanted to know so that I don’t get monitized or bumped.

What’s a good topic to reveal that you are now on Instagram and will post cartoons and game promos? https://www.instagram.com/thesamhadding/

I want to work on a platform fighter game, which is a fighting game like Super Smash Bros. Any ideas for mechanics and features to make this game more different? Keep in mind only 2 will be able to play a single match.

Hello, I’ve been making video games for a while, and I have made a few gems. I am not asking about finding my games on Search results, but any tips on how to get my games more popular?

Nova Boltstar https://sam-hadding-games.itch.io/nova-boltstar

I made different games, including the game Nova Boltstar, with a similar 90s/2000s flare and even a Trogdor reference in a filter name if you want to play it!

Thanks for the advice! Though I came here not for follows, but to distribute my games.

I have no discord, but you can contact me here. https://samscartoonlot.wordpress.com/contact/ Just to get this out of the way, I will reply to you, not some bot.

Should I allow my games to be downloaded for free if I am unable to pay people I’ve worked on the game with? Or should I leave free downloads out of the question?
