Every game teaches you to become more powerful.
What if the lesson was the opposite?

We are building *Veiled Dominion*: a 4-player chess variant where the most powerful piece on the board must learn restraint. It is a gothic art-object wrapped around a deeply unconventional strategy game.

We are looking for the people who just found out they have the time to build something dangerous.

The Architecture

This isn't a mobile slot machine. This isn't a live-service extraction shooter. This is a physical and digital hybrid born from a single mechanical thesis: The Radius of Ruin.

The protagonist is overpowered. Her presence disables her own allies. The win condition isn't just checkmate—it's accumulating points through "Merciful Maneuvers." You win by choosing not to destroy.

We have the rulebook. We have the lore bible. We have the visual language (Musou Black voids, translucent resin, internal LED light). We need the engineers and artists to forge it.

Open Seats at the Board

• Prototype Engineer (Unity / Unreal) We need to prove the 4-player geometry and the "Radius of Ruin" aura mechanics work digitally before we commit to physical manufacturing. You will build the digital playtest sandbox.
• 3D Technical Artist (Blender / Resin Prep) You understand light absorption and translucency. You can take our concept art and output production-ready STLs for translucent resin printing and Musou Black application.
• Sound Designer (Ambient / Drone) Think Jóhann Jóhannsson meets Colin Stetson. We need the audio equivalent of a void and a single, sustained piano note. No epic orchestral trailers. Silence is an instrument.
• Systems Designer You look at "Martyr's Boon" and immediately start running the math on 4-player economy balance. You know how to break a game so we can fix it before production.

The Contact

If you spent the last few years building worlds for players to lose themselves in, and you want to build something smaller, sharper, and unapologetically dark—reach out.

Let's talk.
