Posted 3 weeks ago

Summary

Update Please note that we have streamlined our MVP project strategy. We are now focusing entirely on one single, high-quality title instead of the two previously mentioned We are looking for an expert Unity developer to take an existing Match-3 template and transform it into a premium mobile game. Our goal is to achieve the high-end "feel" and logic found in Royal Match. We need a developer who can go beyond simple reskinning and actually manipulate the game’s core mechanics to reach that level of polish. Updated Scope of Work: Unity 6 Migration: Full migration of the project to Unity 6 LTS, ensuring performance, long-term stability, and store compliance. Core Gameplay Logic (The "Royal Match" Feel): We need the gameplay mechanics to mimic the fluidity and combo system of Royal Match (e.g., merging Rockets, Bombs, and Propellers). The script must be modified to support these custom interactions, ensuring the game feels responsive and professional. VFX & Interaction "Juice": Integration of high-quality VFX assets. You must be able to program custom triggers, timing, and physics to make every explosion and match feel "epic." Social Media Integration: Seamless implementation of: Login/Authentication: Facebook/Google/Apple login. Social Features: Ability for users to share achievements, invite friends, and access social leaderboards. Graphic & UI Overhaul: Implementing a premium "Dark Fantasy" thematic transition. Performance & QA: Optimization for iOS/Android and rigorous QA testing to ensure a bug-free, release-ready production build. Store Deployment & Publishing: End-to-end publishing responsibility, including setting up builds on Google Play Console and Apple App Store Connect, and handling the submission process until the game is fully approved and live on both stores. Technical Requirements: Flexibility is Key: We need the codebase to be flexible enough for us to make minor tweaks to effects and mechanics as we develop. We are not looking for a "hard-coded" or "rigid" system. Expert-level Unity/C#: Proven experience in refactoring Match-3 architecture. Why Join Us? We have a clear, focused vision and are ready to execute immediately. Long-Term Potential: This is the first title in our portfolio. If this project is executed with excellence, we will immediately proceed to our next project, building a long-term partnership I am looking for an expert, high-level Unity developer for a fixed-price MVP contract to execute a simultaneous dual-reskin project. I have purchased the official GameVanilla Match Game Kits Bundle, which is fully optimized for Unity 6. Note I need you to review and study the purchased script to ensure it supports the following requirements, as these are critical for our next phase: Design & UI Scalability: Please examine the script’s architecture and verify that the UI components are fully editable and not constrained by rigid dimensions that would limit our future design freedom. Code Modularity & Development Potential: Please study the current game logic and verify that it is modular enough to allow for the future upgrades, feature enhancements, and development path we discussed, without requiring a complete system overhaul. Visual Effects Integration: Please review the script’s capacity to support modern visual effects and boosters (such as the explosive effects seen in Royal Match). We need to ensure the architecture is capable of integrating these specific additions seamlessly. By reviewing these points now, please ensure that the script is technically capable of supporting our plans so we can proceed without misunderstandings in the later stages.
