Mobile RPG Game Development

I’m setting up a brand-new role-playing game for mobile and need a skilled game developer who can guide the project from concept through a playable prototype.

Scope
• Design the core gameplay loop, character progression system, and quest structure typical of an engaging RPG.
• Produce art and UI placeholders (simple but clear) so we can test user flow on both iOS and Android.
• Build the first vertical slice—one explorable area, basic combat, inventory, and save/load functionality—using a popular mobile-friendly engine such as Unity or Unreal.
• Integrate touch controls and optimise performance for mid-range devices.

What I’ll provide
• High-level story outline, key character bios, and mood-board references.
• Access to a private Git repository and Trello board for collaborative tracking.

What I expect to receive
• Source project in the chosen engine, fully commented.
• APK/IPA test build, plus a short video walkthrough demonstrating all implemented features.
• Brief technical document explaining architecture choices and how to extend the game beyond the prototype phase.

If you have shipped or prototyped mobile RPGs before, especially with Unity Addressables, Firebase, or PlayFab back-end hooks, I’d love to see examples. Let’s create a foundation we can iterate on and grow into a full release.
