Note: For some polycount forum issue we can not attach any pictures or headers into the post, no matter what method we use. To see the overall progress and look/quality of the content we are producing; please check the links in the post below.
We are working flexibly given the time we can spare; some of us are working full-time while others are working part-time on this until we get funded, which is an approach we’ve used successfully before to get startups launched and funded. The goal now is to build a high-quality demo for fundraising (through crowdfunding and game investors) rather than a full game and move to full-time and work towards publishing the game post funding. In short: we are offering equity split (ownership in our studio), payment post-funding and a full-time position.
We have a track record in the games industry and experience founding/building multi-million dollar companies but this is a new venture.

THE PROJECT
Edge of Chaos is a low-fantasy RTS game. We felt it is time to pen a new chapter in RTS that goes back to what these old games did so well, while creating a modern competitive online game that balances the importance of multiplayer with a deep single-player experience. Our goal is to build the best next-generation RTS game for the PC.
