Need Serious Programmers! Multiplayer Shooter Trainer - AimDroid

https://i.imgur.com/oNlT6rl.png

Hello, we’re looking for programmers to help create the game framework, add multiplayer integration, and implement assets for our game.

Project Title:
AimDroid • https://aimdroid.gg/

Description:
First and third-person aim trainer built for multiplayer. Allows players to sharpen their senses and practice their shooting. Contains eventful multiplayer games for the perfect warm-up session.

Includes:

  • Training exercises based around moving targets and models

  • Extensive statistic tracking with improvement suggestions and leaderboards

  • Medium sized multiplayer servers (~20 players)

  • Optimized performance for the most FPS

As similar games exist, we’re providing a game to easily hop on to warm up for the day with your friends. Focused around Fortnite mechanics (character movement and third-person mechanics) to start, with the possibility to expand later. The main difference is the fun party modes in multiplayer (think Pummel Party, Mario Party, etc).

All of the drills are fairly simple. They just involve a target that moves differently based on the mode selected. Such as: reflex, tracking, peeking, accuracy, speed, etc. The idea is that once the framework is completed, we would be able to add more drills and multiplayer modes later on. The main bulk of assets will be satisfied through marketplace assets.

Specific Features:

  • Reflex Drills - Targets randomly appear in front of the player, scoring is based on how fast (and accurate) the player can shoot the targets.

  • Tracking Drills - Targets will move in a predictable pattern, or optionally they will move unpredictably.

  • Bullet Drop Tracking - Far targets will move in a predictable pattern, the player will only have a rifle.

  • Throwable Drills - Bounce or ricochet grenades to hit targets behind cover.

  • CQC Combat Drills - Targets will move towards the player at variable speeds, ends when a target reaches the player.

  • Peeking Drills - Players will have to peek corners to deal damage to hostile targets.

  • Combo Drills / DPS Drills - Players will have to use their available weapons in combination to deal the most DPS possible.

Targets consist of 2D and 3D objects have different movement, paths, dodging, speed, size, and bounce rate. These are based on the drill.

Technical Details:

  • The game will utilize Steam game servers for multiplayer

    • Requires a simple in-game server browser

  • Database implementation needed for statistics and leaderboard (looking into Steam’s services)

  • Highly customizable settings spanning from FOV (horizontal, vertical, 4:3), resolution, sensitivity (X+Y) with converter, and custom crosshairs

Current Progress:

  • A basic TPS + FPS hybrid gun system has been implemented, with bloom, recoil, full-auto, hitscan, and physical bullet support.

  • Level & Model assets have been purchased
