Mojo Games Recruiting Artists and Animators for Aderyn's Cradle
Greetings! We are Mojo Game Studios, an indie company based in Ellicott City, MD with globally distributed team members. We primarily use Slack, email, and Skype as our methods of communication. We are currently working towards launching a Kickstater campaign late this spring or in early summer, and are looking for both full and part time positions to help get us to our Kickstarter and beyond.
Our current project is Aderyn's Cradle, a first-person RPG with single- and multi-player modes. The game is set in Anora, a world ruled by Five Gods. When four of the gods decided the followers of Aderyn, the god of craft, became too numerous, they banished him, his people, and his lands, leaving his Cradle in ruins for centuries. The player's journey guides them through the ruins of a once-thriving civilization as he or she fights to restore the corrupted land. In-game lore deals with humanity’s relationship to both nature and religion, showing the positive and negative aspects of these fundamental human issues.
The game features four distinct environments, 5 playable character classes, an augmentable weapon and armor system, and much more. It provides fluid movement and combat unlike any game before, so that the character’s actions match players’ intent. We’re making first-person melee a thing that works, is exciting, and provides purposeful strategic options. It’s fast paced, skill-based, and very intuitive.
Aderyn’s Cradle consists of four open worlds, which are designed to push the envelope of the fantasy genre, while simultaneously grounding it in the latest visual realism on the graphics market. We want the player to have a sense of exploring a real world. To make this happen, we prioritize smooth integration and open communication across workers in all domains, from lore to art to game design.
