Dieselpunk 1st Person RPG looking for 3D artists and animators, writers and more
About The Studio:
2 Old Men Studios is a passionate team that is always looking to bring in quality new talent.
Despite the studios name there are far more than 2 members and none of us would class ourselves as old. We are however a studio, so we at least tick one of the boxes of our name.
The goal of 2 Old Men Studios is a simple one:
To create top quality games using the Unreal Engine, having a blast in the process.
The team is comprised of quirky and lovable people, much like those two old men you see in the park playing chess and talking nonsense (see, now the name makes sense). The most important thing about us though is that we all share the same passion to inspire those that play our games.
We are looking for people that share our passion to join our team in making our upcoming project, an exciting dieselpunk first person RPG.
