[FONT=lucida sans unicode]- PROJECT DYSTOPIA -

ABOUT
Our project aims to create an “Orwellian social survival game” set in a dystopian city of steel and concrete. First person, multiplayer sandbox for the PC with built in local voice chat driving player interactions.
Our team consists of

  • 1 x Programmer/designer
  • 2 x 2D/concept artist
  • 2 x 3D artists
  • 2 x Level designer
  • 2 x Sound designer/musician

CURRENTLY IN DEMAND

  • 1 x Commissar for Urban Development (level designer)
  • 1/2 x Minister of Propaganda (voice acting/video editing)

LEVEL DESIGN BRIEFING

  • Tile-able, seamless and world-aligned materials are provided, along with a library of building parts, prefab sections, concept art and a small team of artists to cater to your needs. Please note that optimization is a concern, most areas are limited in size, and there are a handful of regulations to fallow to ensure multiplayer runs smoothly.
  • The objective is to create a maze-like, claustrophobic city with very little view of the sky, overshadowed by a dystopian/surreal atmosphere.
  • Fanatical devotion to Brutalist/modernist/industrial style architecture required.

PROPAGANDA DIRECTOR BRIEFING

  • Browse internet libraries for ww2 era footage and rearrange them to fit the game’s backstory.
  • Write and/or produce (with potential help from other teammates) propaganda newsreels, loudspeaker announcements, patriotic songs.
  • Dark sense of humor welcome.

SPECIAL EFFECTS BRIEFING

  • Create (simple!!!) vintage style animations/battle maps/backdrops in 3d or 2d.
  • Apply simple visual effects to footage.
  • “Harvest” and rearrange sounds from old footage.

*ENVIRONMENT ART BRIEFING

  • Create assets from concept art, or use your own imagination! Low-poly is fine for most assets, no need to texture, except in a few cases where I’ll help.
  • Some assets will need rigging/animating. If you don’t know how, again I can show you the way.
  • You will need to follow some simple regulations about origin points and dimensions of objects to make life easier for level designers.

MATERIAL DESIGN BRIEFING

  • Using Free online tools and libraries, craft quality materials for our level designers to use.
  • Upgrade or discard old materials.
  • Experiment with new materials and visual effects.*

SCHEDULE
Progress on our project is best described as a series of game jams. You need not always be online and available, and don’t be scared if nobody says a thing on discord for a week.

Still could use more help with 2D stuff…

12

All right, 2D roles are filled.
Could still use a bit more help with environments/level design…

13

I see your 2D roles are filled, though I am looking to quickly advance my skill into 3D if your are accepting someone who is learning. That said I think I may have been born for this role in the 2D area, here is a link to my website: http://dystoth.com/

Hi,

I am a skilled 3d Artist and have worked on Environment design.
For the past year I have been working on a post-apocalyptic game and now looking for a new project.

I work with Autodesk Maya, Substance painter, Photoshop and Unreal Engine.

I made an 169km2 post-apocalyptc environment with one other designer. This map was played by more than 2 milion players.

Also I am sending some screenshots of the models I worked on in Unreal Engine

Thank you for your time and let me know what you think.

Impressive!

Hi, interesting project!

Do you expect level designers to also create 3d-models, or do you have what is needed to build the levels?
Do you have more info about the project?
Do you still need a level designer?

Some info about me:
I’ve got a background from modding games like Skyrim and Fallout4, where I’ve mostly made dungeons and eerie interiors with pre-made assets. I’m familiar enough with UE4 to build levels and know the basics. I can make simple lowpoly models in Blender, but I’m unsure whether I’d use them for a game, eh. I like the brutalist style though, City 17 from Half Life 2 is one of my favorite game areas.
