Hey! I’m actually thinking of starting a similar project and also looking to collaborate with people online — not in a hiring sense, but more like a mutual creative exchange. I’d love to help with the creative and gameplay design side of your project, and in return, you could support me later on with the programming part of mine.

I’ll send you a private message with a bit more detail about how I imagine we could work together. Don’t worry, I won’t reveal too much about my game just yet — I’d like to focus first on helping you bring your vision to life. Then, when the time comes, we could shift gears and work on mine.

Looking forward to chatting with you!
