Hey Malkav, to answer your questions here, our dev team is pretty small at the moment. To give you a bit of background, we started off as a small group that formed a few weeks after the release of KS. Although I was not a part of the initial conversation, I believe the original idea, started up in the KS forums, was to create a new story at the same location that KS was located. Of course this idea was shot down by the KS devs, however quite a few people from the thread got together and started working on a new idea.
However, since we first started working on this VN a lot of people from our group have left, at the moment we mainly consist of planners, writers, editors and a programmer, a far cry from what we started out with. A lot of roles are left to be filled, we plan to start recruiting as soon as we get some things changed around. We really haven't revealed much at the moment, someone can correct me if I'm wrong. As for what we're looking for to help create this story, I think the answer is the same as what most VN's would be, we're looking for talented individuals who can work together and create a gripping story from start to finish, something that people can walk away from feeling as though they have been affected in one way or another.
