Bonjour! I'm the main programmer for Sonic Utopia, and I've just put together a small team for a startup indie project in UE4. It'll be an action-platformer RPG based on circus themes, with visual elements inspired by NiGHTs, Kingdom Hearts, Psychonauts, and Banjo Kazooie, among others. The rest of our team is fully formed, including one artist, a sound designer, a programmer, and myself doing programming and design.
We will aim for strong funding goals in order to give everyone industry-standard compensation if possible. We have a fairly clear vision for the game, and are currently in the planning and prototyping phase. If you're fond of performing arts or circus aesthetics, we'd love to see how your artistic vision could help establish and guide our game in these early days.
