Hi there,
I'm the lead designer at Transhuman Design (http://www.thd.vg)
We have started working on a new, secret game that is going to be 99% in the authentic NES style, including music, samples, graphics and so on.
It's a bit like Mega Man 9 in the sense that we are intentionally making a great game using old school methods. The game is going to be built upon modern game design principles and part of the reason we have chosen to make the game in this particular style is because we believe that good gameplay does not come from visuals alone.
That being said, NES graphics and audio give me a raging boner.
This is going to be a paid job and we will most likely sell this game (probably on Steam). And yes, it will have game pad support. The money isn't going to be huge because we are an independent game company, but yes, you will get paid on a per track basic.
What we are looking for is someone who both understands how to create NSF/NED files and also can create music that will fit in the game. We are looking for music similar to the Metroid and Castlevania games, something moody and menacing. We are mostly looking for someone who has a good understanding of composition.
If you think you have what it takes, then give me a buzz at me@sigvatr.com
We may hire more than one person, it depends on a number of things, and we are also going to accept collaborations if people want to work together.
Thanks guys!
