About the Project:

We're building an immersive, decision-driven text-based RPG game, inspired by the choice mechanics of Detroit: Become Human. The game focuses on narrative depth and moral choices, presented entirely through a web interface. Every decision leads to branching paths and consequences think emotional complexity meets sleek interactivity.

We're looking for a front-end developer who can build a functional prototype of this game using vanilla HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Frameworks like React may be used selectively for rapid prototyping, but deep framework knowledge is not a prerequisite.

Responsibilities

• Design and develop a text-based RPG prototype with rich user interaction using vanilla JavaScript, HTML, and CSS
• Implement choice-based mechanics, branching story paths, and memory/state tracking (e.g., what decisions the player has made)
• Collaborate on game logic, narrative structure, and user experience design
• Create modular, reusable code for game states, choice trees, and transitions
• Optimize UI for responsiveness and performance across devices
• Build simple prototyping tools (in JS or React) to help visualize decision trees or game flow
• Communicate progress clearly and suggest creative solutions to narrative or technical challenges
  
  

Requirements

• Strong knowledge of vanilla JavaScript, DOM manipulation, and event handling
• Solid grasp of HTML/CSS with a creative eye for layout and UX
• Experience with interactive UIs or game-like mechanics on the web
• Familiarity with state management (even without a framework)
• Ability to build single-page experiences without external libraries
• Good debugging and problem-solving skills
  
  

Bonus (Not Required but Nice to Have)

• Familiarity with React or other JS frameworks (for rapid prototyping tools)
• Interest in interactive storytelling, narrative design, or game development
• Experience with dialogue systems, choice trees, or game state tracking
