Drifters RPG Recruiting
Who is Ultimate Eclipse Game Team?
In 2012 Ultimate Eclipse Studio (www.ultimate-eclipse-studios.com) was founded by Damer Swack and D’jarni Braithwaite. Its simple goal was to create a company within the entertainment sector. Now its Founders is interesting in creating a game.
Group Name is Ultimate Eclipse Interactive. Logo in the making.
U.E.G. is a gaming development team founded by D’jarni Braithwaite. While he has limited experience in game creation, (does anyone really when they first start?) he has spirit. He has creativity and most importantly he has me and his brother.
My name is Sollo Reacon, and I'm the co-project manager, I've had previous experience in creating game. Also I've obtained experience in modeling, and Special FX in various software (No professional experience).
Demar is the team programmer (Not the greatest but he can handle some the basics stuff we need for beta), also level designing, even a little modeling and he can do rigging. He has experience in creating games.
What is Drifters: Legend of Ultar?
A Magical Fantasy based MMORPG about pirates who got ship wreck in an abnormal storm and awoke on a strange Magical Island called Avalon. Confused and clueless as how to get home these pirates find themselves in the middle of a war happening on the Island where the natives are fighting over an ultimate power source. These pirates (players) must now choose a Fraction and fight in the on-going war which is happening on the island. They are now branded as the “Drifters”, so now the war between the Drifters has begun.
Storyline removed and replace with short description.
Gameplay
You are the pirates, so now you must pick a side to fight for, pick your character, develop you skills and spells and lead that side to victory. (In a nutshell)
The Detail Explanation isn’t need because WE ARE NOT BUILDING THE FULL MMO IN UDK.
What we will be building is an RPG TECH DEMO of the MMO game NOT the FULL MMO GAME ON THE UDK. It is possible but it’s a lot of stress no one has time to put up with.
So once again this is a small RPG Tech Demo of MMO. NOT the MMO Game, but full Version will be an MMO game.
Note:We are also planning to develop this Tech Demo into a Single Player game and market it. Its our goal for getting money to pay of team and finance the big project.
Realistic no one is going to work on a tech demo which ain't going to make them no money, we will not be wasting your time nor skill, we will develop the game into a Nice single player game and market it. This way we get money to continue working on game or make a new one.
Focus for RPG Tech Demo
We will create a small story are of game, here is its Storyline:
->Cinematic scene of pirate ships fighting then a storm appears and sinks both ships in.
->Player Wakes up on beach of strange island walks around a bit <- Current Focus Area
->Then comes to a path way which leads into a forest.
->As Player progress along path he comes to ruins of a village at the end of path.
->Player now come in contact with a Native girl and is asked to save her from the creature trying to attack her (with her magic she creates a weapon depending on class)
->Player fights off creatures (level up)
->Girl now leads player to Her Village outside forest
->Player enters village, do a few things then head outside
->Player now has to complete the mini quests received in village outside village
End of game Tech
Simple yet allow us to create and test Environments ideas, Creatures, and most importantly Gameplay Mechanics.
The Tech Demo will only focus on the Circle of Mages side of island or territory (forest side of island).
But we will just try to accomplish those we can with UDK and leave the ones that require the source code out for now.

->Game Design Document is making some progress.*
->Character Concept Art is in production. (A few is complete)

->First area, the beach. (Underway)

*: Game Design Document will not be handed to anyone but programmer for these reasons:
1. We don't wish to confuse you with Tech Demo and the Original MMO (Anyone beside programmer)

We will give to all other members an Project Overview Game design which will focus on the Tech demo Info only.

Note: This is a Recruit Thread not a discussion thread, so please if you aren't interested in helping or saying something positive, i would like to ask you to re-frame from posting. We did not post to get told UDK can't build MMO and so on, we did our research and even contacted epic and got info on this subject. We wish to focus on the main topic which is our Single Player RPG Tech Demo. I don't mean this in a rude way
