Each story should have 15-20 episodes, with 5000-6000 words per episode.
There should be at least three sets of choices in one episode. We need to offer premium choices to the players at regular intervals that will significantly impact the outcome of the player’s journey. Choices selected by the player should truly impact the outcome of the journey of the player.
We need stories for all the popular themes. Please mention if you have a liking for a particular theme such as romance, suspense, adventure, etc.
Scripts should be in English. We may translate scripts to other languages in the future.
