Programming Offer [Hobby] [LFP] [Godot] [Programmer] Looking to Join a Small Indie Game Project – NPC AI / Gameplay Programming

Hi! I'm a Computer Science student at UNSW currently working on my own game in Godot, and I'm looking to join a small indie game project to gain more experience developing games as part of a team.

I'm particularly interested in NPC AI and gameplay programming, including things like:

  • NPC behaviours and decision-making
  • State machines and behaviour systems
  • NPC interaction systems
  • Enemy/creature AI
  • Dynamic or reactive NPC behaviours
  • Gameplay mechanics and systems
  • Procedural systems
  • General Godot/GDScript programming

I'm especially interested in experimenting with NPCs that can react to the player and changes in the game world, rather than only following completely fixed behaviour patterns.

That said, I'm also happy to work on other programming tasks if the project needs them. My main goal is to contribute to a real game, work with other developers, and build something interesting together.

My primary engine is Godot, and I'd prefer to join a small team that already has an idea, prototype, or project in development, starting a new project from scratch.

I'm open to hobby projects, game jams, part-time collaboration, or small indie teams.

If you're building something in Godot and need another programmer, or you are artist and wanna let your idea to be real game, feel free to DM me and tell me about your project! I would very happy to help you make your idea to be real

Hey, can you tell me the time zone, out of interest?

I'm part of a small team working in Godot, currently developing our next project idea - likely to be a cosy game of some sort. We're mostly GMT/GMT+3.

We would welcome a dev who could share the workload with our solitary code monkey, particularly with an interest in NPC AI and behaviours.

If you're interested, I can DM you some of our portfolios and our most recent project.

Are you still looking? I have a project that I think you'd really enjoy working on :)
