You should honestly focus on XenonOS and ExpansesRPG before making another collab…

ExpansesRPG is kinda ded atm and XenonOS is also half-inactive. They use APIs for the code instead of just using scratch so it only makes it harder

lol, then why join an active team like Xenon?

hashdashpotato

USERNAME: Hashdashpotato
ROLE: UI Designer, or if needed or wanted a General Artist.
EXAMPLE OF WORK: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1324214761/
WHAT YOU ARE BEST AT: Depth and 3D perspective, I also enjoy creating abstract patterns.
ACTIVITY (per day/per week): I'm fairly active when it comes to Scratch in general, however I am working on a 2 big projects with both of them possibly getting done within the next few months. I should be able to be appropriately dedicated to this project.
COMFORTABLE WITH 3D? (for map designers only):

Another thing I would like to note is that I have a “concept” of the title done, however I know that titles are a very important part of the project and will only have it as a possibility, I will have this done soon, however if you already have a title done then I will gladly work on something else.

Okay, accepted! You need to keep the UI minimalistic, somewhat like Mario Odyssey did. It's likely going to be a series game, so the title may be based on gameplay.

I was going to choose UI designer, but since somebody is already a UI designer, I could suggest map ideas, be a story designer, or maybe you can hire me as a second UI designer
