I’m hoping to get a development team together for at least this game I’m working at. I hope it can lead to a more permanent relationship.
The game is a strategy game, in which the player is commander of a fleet of space ships. It is meant to be a series, with a different character to play in each episode. This way, the player will learn about the series universe through different perspectives. I have to present those that are interested: my current progress (which is nonplayable but shows the battlesystem and the ai), and a document which explains the game design in further detail.
The game so far
Concept document
For those not wanting to read that whole pdf:
Artist
Avatars*
Space ships* (optional)
Backgrounds (for stores, bars, spacestations)
*some background will be provided for you to base your designs on. Some of the ships already have a temporary design (which can be seen in the demo)
Writer
Characters
Episode pitches which
… are characterdriven (characters evolve during episode)
… have about 5 plotpoints (or in other words: 3 acts)
Work Method
Writer designs the backstory
Artist designs the look
Coder designs the gameplay
1
Writer writes his first idea
2
Artist gives feedback on writer and/or coder if it infringes on “a cool look” and/or a crude design
Coder gives feedback on artist and/or writer if it infringes on “nice gameplay” and/or how this plays out in the game
(this is actually a discussion)
3
Writer rewrites
repeat steps 2 and 3 until a satisfying result is created.
Payment
I have a more artistic way of aproaching this, not a commercial one. First we make the episode we want to make, and then we’ll look for sponsership/licensing. Cash is a bonus! However, I do expect a level of skill in which this should easily be possible.
Interested?
Mail me with:
Your ideas on the characters/plot outline/the actual scenario if you’re a writer
Your ideas/designs on the characters described in the document or the ships in the demo if you’re an artist
