Game design finished! Programmers needed!
I don't want to sound discouraging, but your title is very misleading and may push potential candidates away. Without belittling what you have done, the visuals look great, you should keep in mind that designs and visuals are just a tiny step in a much longer journey. Expect the effort to execute on your designs to easily overshadow the time and effort spent making the designs.
My advice is to pitch this as a new game idea that needs great developers to get it started.

^^ This. Also don't want to sound too negative, you ask for non-beginners, but I would bet any non-beginner takes a look and his / her first opinion will be "this is NOT a finished game by any means". You seem to have a great start and a talented, motivated team, so perhaps rephrase what you have and the intent, but be sure to transmit what most people reading the post will think: there is still a long way to go. Wish you the best of luck

You might be right about the title. Edited.

By beginners I mean someone who only has been programmering for a very short amount of time with no knowledge in networking etc. I'm just looking for someone who can finish the game on possibly her/his own. I've already had a programmer finishing 65-70% of the game but got demotivated after 1.5 months. But I'll try my best. Thanks for the advice.

There's a an old wisdom in development that says: The last 10% of a project takes 90% of the time

And that's probably true
I'm interested. I'm a programmer with 12+ years of experience, and interested in game development.
