Equilibrium Alternate History MMORPG Seeking Artists

CyVLYH7.png

My name is James "Walsingham" Weeks previously of Trion Worlds I am the Creative Director on Equilibrium.

I have worked on the Community Team and directly with the devs and producers on RIFT, End of Nations, and Defiance. As such, we have an inner knowledge as to the processes and workflow involved. We also have many contacts within gaming media.

We have begun work on a new project destined for Kickstarter. We have Hero Engine seats available for qualified and talented individuals, and currently maintain a roster of 30+ on the team.

We have members on our team that have worked on projects for EA, Bioware, Trion Worlds and LucasArts on such titles as Dragon Age 2, SWTOR, RIFT, and more.

As no one else is doing an MMO of this nature (and to our knowledge ever has), it's a bit hush hush. It's definitely not your standard fantasy/sci-fi MMORPG. You can find out more, however by the links below.

The position will eventually be a paying one providing the Kickstarter is successful, with those jumping in early receiving incentives on the back end. In our eyes, this is a partnership.

We plan for the game to be as fan-driven as possible, with no goals whatsoever of being a "WoW-killer," however we do feel that the premise for the game is very, very unique. If we build it, they will come.

We are currently in need of:

Environment Artists/World Builders (with at least one proficient in city building)

Animators

Concept Artists

Rigger

Character and Creature Designers

Lead Game Designer

Content Designers (objects and non-operational vehicles, etc.)

UI Designer (experience with the Hero Engine UI system a bonus)

Particle Effects Specialist

That being said, if anyone feels their expertise could be of use, we are more than happy to talk with you.

Before we can discuss the game with you, please contact us with a description of, or examples of your work, so that we can send you the NDA via email.

If anyone would like to put their time into the project, and would like to know more, please feel free to contact me at weeks@outlook.com or you can PM me here.

I guarantee this is unlike anything you have worked on before.

Thanks!

Premise:

It’s the 53rd century, and time is collapsing. Through a series of targeted attacks, warring factions have caused alternate realities to spin off from the primary timeline. This has resulted in strange races, alternate histories, and an unstable universe that is collapsing in on itself.

As these fissures in time are detected, entire civilizations, races of evolved species, and hand-picked mercenaries who are in danger of being erased from time forever pledge their lives to stop the impending destruction of the universe. Or, worse yet, to destroy it in a bid for ultimate control.

Lindbergh's America, a triumphant South in the Civil War, the assassination of Adolph Hitler, the modern Roman Empire, the A.I. Wars. They all await you to repair or to insure.

    We currently have over 40 folks on the team. Things are moving ahead well. We still need a GUI Artist/Expert, another environment artist, and a few object modelers.

    To Mr. Walsingham. I'm going to send you a private message too, e-mail three, to give a link to my deviant art portfolio that shows a little of my character development, creature development, and environmental art. I also have dungeon designs I've drafted that i'd be willing to share once I refine the included place listings and I'm working now to decide what the quests will be in exact terms. I'm interested in parts of game design that allow me to work with the art and as I'm now an illustrator I would love a chance to be responsible for even a few prop creations or creature designs. Check you're private message box if you get this first. Or e-mail too. Thanks! I'll include my e-mail and portfolio address in both the other options to communicate with you.
