Hello guys. I've been wanting to work on a Polygonal 3D game and I have a game-design and mechanics in mind and even some of the script. Issue is, I do not have any skills pertaining to programming and graphic designing. I want to make an indie project free of cost in a pretty long timeframe (1+ year including juggling school and other responsibilities).
The game is a simple puzzler and horror and dating sim.
In a basic way to sum it up:
At morning, you can hang out with friends and romantic partners and at night you're working on solving trivial details that are slowly plaguing your sanity along with staying with those friend and lovers. The idea is, that there is a sanity level kind of thing which goes down depending on your actions or is maintained at a specific level due to your actions.
The dating sim aspect is very easy to program and art assets for that are pretty non-existent. I only need Voice acting for that which I can manage being a theatre artist and knowing some people who can do voices and some minor art can be done by people I know in real life.
The issue starts at finding programmers and graphics department for the horror aspect.
I would like it if someone could suggest some forums or people who could work with me on this project without any financial expectations for an extremely long and peaceful timeframe.
Thank you all in advance :)

You will find plenty of web agencies nowadays that will realize any project regardless of its complexity. Your only task is to find the company that will offer price suitable for you. And then you need to check how much time the development process will take. Ask for some advice at several places. The best approach is to compare prices on freelance platforms.

    I dont think games have looked any better since 2019 onwards and they are performing worse and worse. Game developers have really dropped the ball.

    "All of this lends the game distinctly last-gen look at times, which is compounded by image quality and frame-rate issues."

    So while Playing Control, I found a journal which said that a bathroom is missing in Islamabad Beurue of Control. With Alan Wake and Control seems to be connected worlds. Even our city is in the universe as well. No wonder those Trail 5 and Trail 6 are haunted.
    did you know you can see @NaNoW credited in the game too ? :p

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    " Both PS5 and Series X have an unlocked frame-rate here, with performance that generally lies between 30fps and 45fps. That makes for a stuttering and inconsistent output in general play, no matter what you are doing at any given time."

    I absolutely hate parry and Sekiro made me love it, i hate sci fi and Mass Effect made me love it. This is the definition of genre defining experiences.

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
