Project Overview I am looking for an experienced developer to help build a browser based, text driven medieval/fantasy strategy RPG. .
The game focuses on: - Resource management (3 different types) - Time based building and research - Island/territory expansion - Player vs player combat - Alliances, messaging, rankings, and world events
This is a long term project/partnership.

Game Interface - Clean, readable, text first minimalist UI - Responsive browser interface (desktop / mobile-friendly) - Game menus (overview, map, mail, alliances, rankings, settings) - Event logs & notifications
Technical Requirements - Backend suitable for long running persistent games - Efficient handling of timers and scheduled events - Secure handling of player actions - Scalable architecture (even if launched small)

Deliverables (Phase 1) Playable MVP with: - User accounts - One island per player - Core resource buildings

Budget & Timeline Budget: I'm on a tight budget £500. There will be pay to play elements and happy to come to an arrangement of splitting the income.
Timeline: Flexible Quality and long term maintainability matter more than speed
Nice to Have (Not Required) - Previous MMO, idle, or strategy game experience - Interest in long term collaboration - Basic game balancing insight - DevOps or deployment experience
