Just a fair warning though - I'm only accepting people who can confirm they are over the age of 18. This is due to the fact that the game includes adult content in it's expansion DLC and has adult references inside the base game.

This is also a volunteer effort. You will be credited.

A 3D render of Deren & Phenn from Rebellious Takeover. Deren is pointing at his face, while Phenn is giving a peace sign. Both have their mouths slightly open. The text "Voice Actors Needed!" is boldly displayed at the top, with a graffiti-style "Rebellious Takeover" logo at the bottom.

Hey, so I need some help!
I need some voice actors for small "blips" (literally less than a second of voice) for each character in Rebellious Takeover. Contact me if you're interested, and share this around if you can! Thank you! :)

JakeDRavioli Hi. I'm Jake - A UK-based indie game developer creating stories that stick and games that stick even more.

Also, as a side announcement, I've recently been moving my efforts off of Neocities and onto GitHub! I now host my main domain under jakedravioli.github.io. Update your bookmarks if you have any! :)

To extend my last post, I actually improved Deren's look a lot! He's no longer looking a little scuffed (kinda, still got some work to do).

Here's a showcase of what he looks like in a prototype version of Rebellious Takeover.

A wallpaper featuring Deren Kael from Rebellious Takeover leaning on the right side of the screen, adjusting his visor while looking at the viewer with a smug expression in a vibrantly blue painterly/graffiti background. At the bottom left is the game's logo, reading out "REBELLIOUS TAKEOVER".

One final thing - Here's a desktop wallpaper for RT, featuring the poster boy himself, Deren! I'm going to be doing around 12 in total, and this is 1st. Make sure to check the RT landing page & blog for updates to when the full pack drops!

A powered up version of Deren Kael from Rebellious Takeover - Showing a brighter colour scheme in his hair, ears and tails - And a much more erratic and vibrant eye colour. The background has darkened - And there is text behind him saying things like "WARNING - LIMITER DISABLED - C.O.R.E OVERHEATING", "MELTDOWN IMMINENT - ESTIMATED REMAINING RUNTIME: 00:43", "NERVE SYSTEM NULLIFIED", "INTERNALS OVERHEATING - SURVIVAL RATE LOW", and "ERROR: SYSTEM OVERLOAD". At the bottom left is a signature-style watermark with the words "JDR", and a mask icon.

A normal variant of Deren Kael from Rebellious Takeover, in a menacing fighting taunt pose, intimidating the viewer to come closer. The background is a vibrant painterly/glitchy mix, and is vibrantly blue in colour.

I've got a LOT to show today!!

I made these a while ago but never shown it off - It's a concept design for Rebellious Takeover showing Deren's "Overclock/Overdrive" form, which is his ultimate that uses the "C.O.R.E" heart replacement he wields.

A vibrant painterly background with two figures with cat-like features on the right and left with the words "REBELLIOUS TAKEOVER" in the top middle, and the watermark "vecShift Studios" on the bottom left.

Second ever promotional artwork for Rebellious Takeover. It's to be used on banners in places like here and on YouTube, alongside game platforms like GameJolt!!

It's got a similar energy to the main one but only 2 characters. Should I make variants w/ each couple? ๐Ÿ‘€

Genuinely, if they're going to add age groups and verifications, they should. One more reason for badge goblins to... be badge goblins, I guess.
