Europa Sanctum : Looking for 3D artists and game developers to collaborate with.
Hey guys,
I am am software engineer of 15+ years and I've recently started getting into game development. I'd like to team up with a 3D modeler and possibly an environment artist to make a game. I have documents for the entire story, all the weapons and damage models and a level started. I wouldn't be paying for the work right now, but the team would share in profits of the game. Like I said I'm a software engineer and I get asked all the time to do things for free on an equity basis so I know how annoying this type of post is, but I've also worked with teams on an equity basis in the past and made some money working on cool SAAS projects, I don't expect this to be any different.
I'd like to start with one map and get a couple areas of the map fully fleshed out as well as some concept art and different things and launch a kickstarter campaign to finish the game.
Anyone that joins the team early on will be given an equity stake in the project in writing. After the kickstarter is funded, we will hire developers and artists on a freelance contractual basis with the option for current equity holders to switch to a paid freelance contract.
The game:
Europa Sanctum is a battle royale style game meets "The Cycle" (check it out on epic games). The world has plummeted into chaos as Earth's natural resources begin to dwindle. 3 factions arise from the chaos, the United Nations of America, The Russia China Alliance and the United Arab Coalition. These factions establish bases on Mars for future missions to Europa, one of Jupiters inhabitable moons. As tensions escalate on Mars, The RCA attacks the UAC. During the skirmish, the UNA launches its mission to Europa with 50,000 civilians and a full military escort. After arriving on Europa, the UNA tasks the military and several thousand civilian contractors with exploring the new world, setting up sustainable food and water sources, establishing a defense system and assassinating enemy contractors.
The gameplay:
Contractors and military drop onto Europa and race to secure cryptocurrency by completing open faction contracts. These include drilling for water, planting and harvesting crops, stopping enemy faction rocket launches and more. There will be two game modes, TDM and "Freelance Skirmish"
The map will close down like a traditional BR game as time elapses. The contractor with the most completed contracts wins. Special rewards and endings happen for contractors with the most contracts AND the most kills. Contractors achieve "Warden of Europa" status by finishing a game with the most contracts AND kills.
The nitty gritty:
If you're interested, please respond here with some examples of your modeling abilities and I will PM you my email, or you can send me a PM on Reddit. I will have you sign an NDA and we'll discuss equity positions.
